Bankruptcy: Can we hot card a debit card?
Answer by Jim Bedsole, BOL Guru Guru Bio
Question: Can we hot-card a debit card if the customer has recently declared bankruptcy?
Answer: Assuming your contractual agreement with the customer regarding the debit card allows you to cancel the card at your discretion, I don't know of any reason you couldn't. Check state law for any restrictions. Also, if you learned about the bankruptcy through a credit report, you may have FCRA adverse action notification requirements with regard to the cancellation of the debit card.
