Corporate Travel Card
IMPORTANT NOTICE - IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED
All GE MasterCard corporate travel cards will be cancelled effective February 28, 2009. Cards are being cancelled because the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Accounts has awarded the Travel Charge Card Program to a new vendor - Bank of America.
Current cardholders must take immediate action. Please review the following links that contain important information about the new cards.
- Travel Cards are Changing
All current cardholders should read this information to ensure that they can obtain a new corporate travel card.
- Travel Cardholder Information Sheet (1/09)
This document contains a synopsis of the steps in the process for existing cardholders to obtain a new Bank of America corporate travel card. Please review this information carefully and ensure your compliance.
- Travel Card Request Process (1/09)
This document contains information provided by the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Accounts about the application process.
- Corporate Travel Employee Agreement (revised 1/09)
Corporate Travel Charge Cardholders are required to complete an annual Employee Agreement. Each employee must complete the new Employee Agreement and send the original to the Program Administrator before the application can be approved and submitted to the Bank of America.
Send completed agreements to:
Corporate Travel Card Program Administrator
Accounts Payable
Office of Finance
Old Dominion University
Norfolk, VA 23529
- Annual cardholder training is required. Cardholders will be notified when the training is available. Failure to complete the training will result in the card being cancelled.
New Policies (Bank of America Corporate Travel Card)
- Delinquency - If any cardholder becomes 91 days delinquent, Old Dominion University will deduct the total delinquent charges on your card from your pay and pay Bank of America directly. Your travel card will be permanently closed. This will occur regardless of whether or not reimbursement for travel costs has occurred.
- Maintaining card delivery/statement delivery address - Cardholders are responsible for maintaining their card delivery and statement billing address (home address only) with Bank of America. The Program Administrator can no longer maintain the address.
- Credit Check - A soft credit check will be performed on the employee applying for a travel card to obtain a current credit score. A soft credit check is defined as a request for credit score but it does not log on the employee's credit. Your credit score will determine the credit limit on your card. There are 4 credit limit options: $1,000 (will be granted regardless of credit score), $2,000, $2,500, and $5,000. If you wish to have a limit greater than the maximum of $5,000, you must contact the Program Administrator. A request will be submitted to the Department of Accounts for approval and then forwarded to Bank of America for a soft credit approval.
