2. JP MorganChase Card
The State JPMorganChase Corporate Card Program will be cancelled; all accounts will be closed effective June 30, 2003. This decision was based on the overall responses from cardholders regarding the additional personal $30 Annual Fee that was imposed by JPMorganChase under the terms of the new contract. The Procurement Office will handle all account closures; individual cardholders do not need to contact JPMorganChase. Cardholders having reoccurring charges such as newspaper delivery, EZ pass accounts, subscriptions, etc. must contact the vendor immediately to change the charge to a personal credit card.
State travel business expenses will continue to be reimbursed in the same manner, except that the traveler must now use their own personal credit card, rather than a University affiliated Corporate Card.
Please contact, Rosalie Makarick, Corporate Card Administrator at 2-6022 for any questions.
