Prior to reinstating a patron’s credit privileges, the certificate holder shall comply with subsection (e).
(e) If a patron’s credit privileges have been suspended for any reason relating to the patron’s continued creditworthiness, the certificate holder’s credit department shall reverify the patron’s information, as required under § 609a.3(c)(2) and (3), before reinstating the patron’s credit privileges.
