U.S. Bank has been receiving payments for Purchasing Card and CTA Ghost Card Account activities to the incorrect addresses.  This is causing confusion on their end as well as delaying the posting of the payment to the right account, which results in late fee charges.  Currently, the General Accounting Office is conducting testing with U.S. Bank to establish the ability to issue payments for Purchasing Card and CTA Ghost Card Account activities using ACH/EFT.  Until testing is completed, please use the following information when submitting payments to U.S. Bank:

Other Address IDs or Vendor profiles related to U.S. Bank should only be used by agencies which have a business reason to do so.  For specific instructions for payments made for Purchasing Card and CTA Ghost Card accounts, please refer to the “ACH Currently Unavailable for Payments Issued to U.S. Bank from the New AFIS System for Purchase Card and CTA Ghost Card Account Activity” web story posted on July, 7th 2015 (/ach-currently-unavailable-payments-issued-us-bank-new-afis-system-purchase-card-and-cta-ghost-card).

If you have questions about this process, please feel free to contact the Statewide Purchase and Travel Card Coordinator, Jacqueline Harding at 602-542-6254 or her backup, Patti Ferreira at 602-542-5402.
