Once debt is paid to the collection agency you will go on probation for 1 year. The reinstatement fee/probation fee of $100 must be paid to SBEA, to be approved to do payroll deductions again. You will be on probation for 1 year; your limit will be lowered to $300 a month instead of $600.

   New Gift Card Policy

Notice of Change on Gift Cards – Effective October 1, 2022

While we are glad to bring a service to our members they like, we must also do things in the best interest for SBEA. The gift cards have gotten so big and so many that we must do something to bring the cost in line.  Starting October 1, 2022 there will be some changes on how our gift cards are sold.

1. There will be a limit on Walmart cards to $100 per deduction, per member as they are very popular, and we are limited on how many we get. Hopefully more of our members can have access to these cards.
2. We will also limit our ordering to those that sell the best and not carry so many different cards.
3. There will also no longer be any special orders or holding on gift cards. First come, first choice of the gift cards available.

As always, we work hard to bring great things for our members while keeping the SBEA growing and secure for the future. Thank you for your understanding.
