Devoid of Integrity

MISMANAGEMENT

"If you have integrity, nothing else matters. 
If you don’t have integrity, nothing else matters" 
-
-Alan K. Simpson-



There is sufficient documentation proving that decline of Priority One Credit Union is due to mismanagement. The once growing credit union has become victim of President Charles R. Wiggington, Sr, whose abuses of authority, ineptitude as a leader and avarice have deteriorated the organization's once stable financial foundation. Of course, his abuses and chronic failures could never have occurred without the enablement provided by the Board of Directors and in particular, it's Board Chair, Diedra Harris-Brooks.

2007 

In 2007, the President refused to follow security protocols created by his predecessor, William E. Harris, and as a result, ballots were mailed to members in envelopes on whose exterior were printed member account and social security numbers. When the Board demanded the termination of the person who caused the security breach, he blamed the IT Manager who had absolutely no involvement in causing the breach, but Board Chair, Mrs. Harris-Brooks, chose not to investigate further and ordered the suspension of the President's scapegoat. 

2008


In 2008, a former employee wrote to the credit union's attorney, William Adler, and accused the President of having sexually harassed her for a period of several years. Specifically, the President had often asked the employee to come over to where he sat so he could "whip your ass" or "you know you want that ass whipped" or "bring that ass over here so I can whip it." He had also placed his hands on her knees and thighs while she napped in the South Pasadena lounge room. 


An investigation was conducted and evidence gathered. Mrs. Harris-Brooks was contacted by credit union attorney and provided with a date when the investigator would present his findings. Mrs. Harris-Brooks called and invited Supervisory Committee Chair, Cornelia Simmons, and Directors, O. Glen Saffold and Thomas Gathers to the meeting. She intentionally did not invite Directors, Janice Irving and Joe Marchica because it had already been decided by the Board Chair that irrelevant of the gravity of the disclosures, President Wiggington, who had been suspended with pay, would be reinstated. 


Days following the meeting, Mrs. Irving revealed that the evidence proving Charles R. Wiggington., Sr. sexually harassed the former employee was overwhelming. What's more, the investigator recommended the President's termination. 


Mrs. Harris-Brooks insisted that the President's behaviors did not warrant termination, admitting that though highly inappropriate his statements and gestures towards the victim were not sexual harassment as defined under federal law. Mrs. Harris-Brooks' subservient minions agreed and in doing so, proved they are all too easily pliable and morally bankrupt. 
  

Mrs. Harris-Brooks, Ms. Simmons, Mr. Saffold and Mr. Gathers voted for the President's reinstatement and a few days later, Mrs. Harris-Brooks mailed a letter to the victim informing her that according to her "understanding" the President's acts did not constitute sexual harassment. What's more, the victim had inexplicably coaxed the President into behaving inappropriately, encouraging his abhorrent behaviors. It was a travesty but which which the amoral Mrs. Harris-Brooks perpetrated in spite that the President's unwanted acts did violate federal law.


Unbeknownst to Mrs. Harris-Brooks, the victim had filed a complaint with the Department of Fair Employment and Housing days before the investigator met with the Board. When the credit union was contacted by the Department of Fair Employment and Housing, Mrs. Harris-Brooks offered $20,000 to settle the complaint even though in her letter she wrote that sexual harassment as defined under federal law, had never occurred. The promptly rejected the offer and the Mrs. Harris-Brooks upped the ante, offering $40,000 to settle the complaint.





2009

Last year, Mrs. Harris-Brooks and President Wiggington disrupted the electoral process, trying to limit the amount of members who would receive notice of the upcoming annual election and the invitation mandated under state law, which invites members to nominate themselves to vie for available seats on the Board of Directors or Supervisory Committee. 

After we exposed their plot, they were forced to conduct a second election. Their conspiracy which damaged the integrity of the credit union's annual election which is supposed to be fair and impartial for Priority One to reprint ballots and letters and spend money having to remail the ballots. 

Last year during the  highly censored annual meeting stated that he was reducing spending, :"streamling" and "working smarter." Are his antics and those of the Board Chair which forced the credit union to spend more money repeating a process that the the two officers purposely tainted and were and arrogant enough to believe their violation of state law would go unnoticed. 


However, Mrs. Harris-Brooks and the President with the help of Director, Bobby Thomas, convinced a postal carrier named Jeffrey Moses Chen that he should submit his nomination to vie for a seat on the Board. They drafted Mr. Chen because former "White" Board Director, David L. Davidson, submitted his nomination to try and win a seat on the Supervisory Committee. When the President received Mr. Davidson's nomination application, he began complaining to employees, to AVP, Rodger Smock, and to Mrs. Harris-Brooks, that he did not want David Davidson serving on any of the credit union's two governing boards. Yes, the man who has caused the credit union's decline and who was proven to be a sexual harasser, decided that he didn't want Mr. Davidson, who is ethical land fair, to win a seat on the Supervisory Committee. We sense more than a little hypocrisy and may we dare say, jealousy. 

Mr. Chen had no idea that Mr. Thomas urged him to submit his nomination in an effort to divert votes that might otherwise be cast for Mr. Davidson. 

What's more, Mrs. Harris-Brooks, President Wiggington, Mr. Thomas, Coo, Beatrice Walker, and Director of Credit Resolutions, Yvonne Boutte, agreed to campaign in favor of Mr. Chen. Their aggressive campaign reached out to members they all know and included ordered credit union employees to vote for Mr. Chen. 

What's more, they campaigned against Janice Irving whose seat on the Board had come up for re-election. Beatrice Walker and Mrs. Boutte visited every department in the South Pasadena branch and told employees not to vote for either Mr. Davidson or Mrs. Irving.

However, Mrs. Harris-Brooks plot was almost sidetracked when Mr. Chen failed to return his completed application. Mrs. Harris-Brooks mailed him a letter, reminding him to return the completed application by the deadline date. Mr. Chen didn't respond. Mrs. Harris-Brooks called Director, Bobby Thomas, and asked that he personally visit and speak to Mr. Chen and ask he return his application even thought the deadline date had passed.  

Mr. Chen was contacted and personally delivered his application to the main branch which was greedily accepted by the President and Mrs. Brooks. The two highest officers knowingly and intentionally violated state law. 

2010

In 2009, President Wiggington violated state law and ordered that the Monthly Income Statements for March, April and May not be posted. At the time, he said he didn't care what the law stated, he didn't want the credit union's financials finding their way to the Internet. 

Last week he told some of his staff that he will not post December 2009's Monthly Financial Statement because in his words, "It's nobody's business." We of course, beg to differ. He is obligated by state law to post the financials in a conspicuous location within all branches where the statements are easily accessible to all members. 

The dishonest President has obviously forgotten that in June 2009, two members filed complaints against the credit union for refusing to post the financials for the months of March, April and May 2009. He was contacted by the DFI and lied, informing them that the statements had been posted and that allegations of wrong doing were wholly untrue.

However, a second complaint was filed and the exasperated President, deferred the DFI's correspondence to COO, Beatrice Walker, for response. Ms. Walker also lied and though she admitted the March 2009 statement had not been posted, she also stated that "perhaps" the April statement had also not been posted. She failed to address the fact the June 2009 had not been posted. 

What Ms. Walker didn't know at the time she mailed her letter to the DFI is that just a few days earlier, the President provided the DFI with a second version of his original story, this time stating that the statements had been posted at all branches, except the Valencia office though he could not explain how that was even possible. 

All the while, Mrs. Harris-Brooks and the other Directors kept quiet, aware that the President was violating state law, but choosing instead, to play dead 

  
 SECURITY?

Last year, the credit union conducted an audit of the Los Angeles aka LAPDC branch'es records. The audit which took place over a three-week period discovered that more than $60,000 had been embezzled from member accounts, including IRA's. According to the credit union, the thefts were perpetrated by a former receptionist. The credit union did not discover the thefts on their own, but became aware of these when a member complained that when she visited the credit union to close her IRA, money had been taken which reduced her more than $6,000 account to about $3400.00. 

The receptionist allegedly deposited monies into a bogus checking account and with the assistance of family, withdrew funds from the phony account using an ATM located in Long Beach, California. The theft is a federal offense. The credit union has now reported the former employee to police authorities but we've heard that Board Chair, Diedra Harris-Brooks is reluctant to prosecute because of the adverse attention it could bring to the scandal-ridden credit union. Did we mention  that the thefts are a federal offense? 

Though the credit union has been careful to avoid brining attention to themselves, one has to question the effectiveness of it's security protocols. Is the credit union not monitoring all branches to ensure they are maintaining security controls? And if controls are being maintained, then how did the receptionist perpetrate thefts that were never noticed by the AVP assigned to the Los Angeles office or by the Supervisory Committee who allegedly audit all security controls? And is this yet another example of President Wiggington "working smarter?"



MUZZLED 

As reported in our last two posts, it's become acutely clear that President Wiggington's authority may have been snipped by the Board of Directors, with more and more of his power transferred to COO, Beatrice Walker. As also reported prevously, the President and COO hardly ever speak to one another. It seems that the honeymoon is over. 

What's more, Ms. Walker has created a clique comprised of Credit Resolutions Director, Yvonne Boutte, and newly appointed Call Center Supervisor, Joseph Garcia. Ms. Walker is becoming as vocal as the talk-addicted President has recently expressed a desire to become the credit union's next COO, According to Mrs. Boutte, Mrs. Walker doesn't think the President is sufficiently polished or knowledgeable to lead the credit union. What's more, she finds his behaviors appalling and embarrassing. We concur. 

In fact, Ms. Walker is becoming more and more immodest, boasting that she possesses the ability to save Priority One. The Board apparently believes her and we've observed that the Board Chair seems smitten by Ms. Walker's promises of forthcoming success. And so the Board has not only ordered the President to not interfere with Ms. Walker's plans but that he fully support all of her enterprises. For a control freak like Charles R. Wiggington. Sr., the orders must come as an emotional blow to his volatile and fragile disposition. 

This of course prompts us to ask, "Why is Charles R. Wiggington, Sr. still employed?" He clearly is a failure and has caused the credit union to lose millions of dollars in net income a little more than a 3-year period. Couple that with the fact he was proven to have sexually harassed a former employee and he also took ownership of an automobile owned by a former member. What is that President Wiggington does nowadays? What exactly is his role at Priority One? In the meantime, he continues to be paid more than $150,000 per year plus bonuses. 


BEATRICE WALKER

On June 2, 2009, AVP, Rodger Smock posted a notice on the credit union's Intranet, announcing the hiring of COO, Beatrice Walker. Ms. Walker's actual first day of employment was June 1, 2009, and on the day of her arrival, Rodger Smock introduced her to the staff of the South Pasadena's six departments "Beatrice Walker", never alluding to her title. 

In his memorandum, he described her as highly competent and possessing an MBA in business and disclosed that she would be introducing new streams of income that would generate profit and promote growth. Over the next several days, President Wiggington disclosed that Ms. Walker was going to introduce changes that would improve business immediately. No one thought of asking how he defines "immediately." 

In light of the fact that she's only been employed by the credit union for seven (7) months, we certainly didn't expect her to reap immediate results, after all, she has to muddle through the messes created by President Wiggington and try to find a way of resolving the results of his many blunders. However, to date, her biggest contribution was the termination of four employees. We've also learned that she apparently doesn't possess the product knowledge but instead, calls her friends and acquaintances in the industry, looking to obtain ideas of what she could introduce that might produce profit. 

Unfortunately, she's quickly become known as one of the President's henchmen, though lately, she seems to have absorbed some of his power and seems to be doling out orders. In the meantime and as reported in our last two posts, the President has withdrawn and often remains in his office with the door closed. 

Last year, she stood at the podium during one of the credit union's quarterly all-staff meeting and announced she never met Charles R. Wiggington, Sr. prior to her arrival on June 1, 2009. Why would she deem it necessary to mention this? We certainly never reported that they knew one another prior to the date she was hired. 

Her "lie" to attendees of the meeting was exposed when the South Pasadena Branch Manager, the Lead Consumer Loan Teller and an FSR told employee that they had seen Ms. Walker and the President leaving Applebee's restaurant in the city of Alhambra, California, almost one year prior to Ms. Walker's arrival in South Pasadena. Evidently, she lied. The three employees hid behind a parked car as the President and COO walked past them to their respective automobiles, laughing loudly and obviously, being very chummy. 

During another quarterly meeting, she feigned tears and delivered a dramatic though poorly acted performance, decrying rumors that she was involved in the embezzlement of money while serving as a supervisor for Honda Federal Credit Union. Her statement was yet another lie as no such rumors had ever circulated amongst staff at any of the credit union's branches. In fact, after the meeting, employees convened in small groups and asked co-workers if any had ever heard a rumor of Ms. Walker involved in embezzlement. None had. Beatrice Walker's embarrassing performance was the brainchild of President Wiggington who was certain her act would cause people to revolt against this blog. We can't comprehend his reasoning as it makes no sense, then again we think the President is damaged goods. 


PAYDAY-LIKE LOAN

One of the first ideas plagiarized by Ms. Walker, was introducing a payday-styled loan which she's christened, Priority Pay and which will be offered initially, to members who obtain payday loans from storefront vendors whose APR's are astoundingly high. 

The idea had the potential of helping those members who habitually obtain payday loans and due to high interest rates, find themselves trapped in a perpetual cycle of debt. At least one would think this would be the motivation of a credit union that touts itself as a financial fitness center. The flaw or snare, at the center of Ms. Walker's product is revealed in the loan's terms.


THE FINE PRINT

The new loan allows a first-time applicant to borrow a maximum of $300.00. All applicants will have to also pay a flat fee of $59.00.

Once the initial loan is paid off in it's entirety, the member may apply for higher amounts up to a maximum of $700.00, plus the $59.00 fee. 

According to the COO, this is much more reasonable than borrowing money from a traditional payday lender. 

We decided to verify the statements made by Ms. Walker. Conducting a search of the Internet, we found an immense number of payday lenders who charge exorbitant and unreasonable interest fees. However, not all payday lenders change exorbitant fees. 

We found several who on a loan of $300.00, charge a fee of $40.00, if the loan is paid by its due date. If, for example, a $300.00 is paid on time, then the total charge is $340.00. That is $300.00 for the principle and $40.00 for interest.

On the other hand, if one were to obtain a $300.00 loan from Priority One, the total amount that must be paid on its due date is $359.00. $300.00 for the principle plus the $59.00 fee. That is $19.00 more than is being charged by some payday lenders. 

What's more, the $59.00 fee charged by Priority One is not a one-time charge. The terms clearly reveal that the $59.00 is a monthly membership fee, charged to members whether or not they obtain a loan. So if you obtain a loan and pay it off, expect to be charged another $59.00 in the following month and every month thereafter. 

If traditional storefront payday lenders are considered predatory in nature, then how is Priority One different? The problem we see is the reasons why President Wiggington and the Board of Directors chose to hire a COO. 

In late 2008, President Wiggington was often overheard talking about his plans to hire a COO sometime in the near future. According to his statements, the COO would taken-over projects he was too busy to attend to, would help find ways to generate income, and who would help rid the credit union of enemy employees who he believed were out to usurp his authority. 

Before Ms. Walker's arrival, we published a post about rumors that a COO had been hired though at the time, we had no idea who the officer was. But even before her arrival at the credit union on June 1, 2009, employees heard the President describe new COO as a "hatchet man." Clearly, she isn't a man but her termination of four (4) employees in late 2009, affirm she is a hatchet woman. 

We believe Priority Pay will fail. Based on what we've verified thus far, this is not a member-friendly product and its intent is clearly to generate profit for the credit union by charging members a continual monthly fee of $59.00. Now how does that help members achieve financial fitness? It doesn't.  


FIREWALLS

In our last post, we reported that in recent weeks, the Board of Directors and the President, AVP, Rodger Smock, and COO, Beatrice Walker, have held meetings at locations outside the credit union during which they've tried to derive solutions to leaks of confidential information.  On a side note, they're meetings are taking place at local eateries located around the city of South Pasadena which means the credit union is having to pay for lunches for all attendees. Is this again, another example of how Charles R. Wiggington, Sr. is striving to reduce expenses? 

According to the Director of Credit Resolutions, Yvonne Boutte, Ms. Walker has ordered the addition of even more firewalls which she allegedly said will stop employees from accessing this blog from their company assigned PC's. We don't believe any employee would be so careless as to read this  blog from their assigned PC's. What's more, last year, President Wiggington hired Sepia Consultants to conduct a search of the PC's assigned to employees the President said he knew were reading this blog while at work, sending information to this blog, and writing the posts published on the blog. The search found absolutely no evidence to support the President's absurd suspicions. Sepia Consultants was also paid using credit union funds. 

Here are some facts that we've verified to be true:

  • What we do know is that each day while at work, President Wiggington reads this blog from his PC.


  • The President uses his PC to visit BMW dealership websites.


  • He uses his PC to send personal emails to friends and family. 


  • We know that one former officer used his PC to view pornography. He would share what he'd seen with other officers. 


  • Beatrice Walker has disclosed that she receives messages on her cell phone, via feed burner, each time someone publishes a comment on this blog.  

CFO-LESS

Before departing the credit union after more than 16-years of employment, CFO, Manny Gaitmaitan revealed that he resigned because the President, the COO, and AVP, Rodger Smock, had ostracized him and had almost ceased speaking to him, all together. The President and COO had also stopped inviting him to participate in meetings that should have included his participation. He did not refrain from expressing his disdain for Beatrice Walker who he described as "bad for Priority One" and revealed that his relationship with the President grew increasingly strained because he refused to alter financials and report profits where no profits had existed and reduce the amount of actual losses. According to Mr. Gaitmaitan, the President was determined to create a sham impression of success where success hadn't occurred.

Mr. Gaitmaitan believed the President's methodologies are contributing to Priority One's ruination and that COO, Beatrice Walker, is actually pushing the credit union into more and more debt by spending monies on projects she alleges will create profit, though she has yet to present reports or studies that serve to substantiate any of her claims.   

Mr. Gaitmaitan's departure was treated with the utmost disrespect by the President, the COO, and AVP, Rodger Smock. Though many of his staff were sad to see him leave, the COO chose not to attend a luncheon conducted by employees. There was no effort made by the credit union's three abherrent officers to maintain some level of decorum. 

Mr. Smock did post a notice on the credit union's Intranet disclosing Mr. Gaitmaitan was leaving at the end of December 2009. The AVP's message was cold and very matter-of-fact and certainly not the type of expression that one might think would be due to an officer who had been an employee of the credit union for more than nineteen years.


SEX ON THE BRAIN

During the past seven days, more indiscretions of Priority One's highest officers, surfaced. 

The latest incident to come to light occurred a few years ago at the home of AVP, Rodger Smock, who at the time served in the capacity of Director of Human Resources.  The incident has been verified to be true by employees who attended a light night swim party at Mr. Smock's Echo Park home. 

According to two female employees, Mr. Smock allowed several women swim in his swimming pool while he spent most of his time in his bedroom, entertaining a young male employee of the credit union. 

Every 30 minutes or so, Mr. Smock would reappear and pour alcohol in the glasses of his guests. As the evening progressed, the women become grew inebriated and one took off all her clothes. 

It's hard to believe that this took place of the one person in the company who is allegedly most acquainted with credit union policies and state and federal laws. Based on the statements made by two of his guests, Mr. Smock forgot his role as an officer. He also never considered the danger he was placing the inebriated employees in. And would the credit union have been liable if any of his guests had been injured while driving home. And how did Mr. Smock deem it even slightly appropriate to cavort with a male employee? 

We've learned that when the male employee worked in the South Pasadena branch, he served in the capacity of an FSR in the office's Member Services Department. In those days, Mr. Smock would meet him in the department each morning and in front of employees, adjust the young man's neckties and collar. The behavior apparently made the Branch Manager uncomfortable who confided with some of her staff that the behavior was inappropriate. She was correct. 

At Priority One there aren't only ethical issues permeating the organization's operation but it seems clear that officers have absolutely no comprehension of the responsibility they hold in setting an example to all employees or that it is imperative they abide to all policies and laws. 

There is a serious problem concerning the ability of the credit union's oldest male officers to control their sexual urges. On the night of the pool  party, Mr. Smock didn't commit a youthful indiscretion because at the time he was in his 60's. He discarded his responsibilities as sentinel over credit union policies and his actions could have had legal ramifications upon the organization.

Even before Charles R. Wiggington. Sr. was appointed President, he began perpetrating egregious acts which he kept veiled by former President, William E. Harris. Since his appointment on January 1, 2007, his manipulation of credit union policies and violations of state and federal laws have been willingly joined by the disgraceful Board Chair, Diedra Harris-Brooks, and venal AVP, Rodger Smock. 

The three have colluded and victimized employees, vulgarized credit union policy, and defied state laws. Board Chair, Diedra Harris-Brooks, has done more than just enable to President's egregious acts, she's structured plots which undermined last year's election, squashed evidence proving Charles R. Wiggington, Sr. sexually harassed a former employee, and abused the perimeter of her state-mandated authority all to ensure that her hold over the credit union remains intact and unchallenged. 

2009 ended mired in the RED. That should come as no surprise to anyone familiar with the credit union's Monthly Income Statements or quarterly Financial Performance Reports filed with the NCUA. In spite of what is common knowledge, the aberrant President has again disclosed that he will not post December's Monthly Income Statement. Of course, if another member files a complaint to the DFI, we'll report it in a forthcoming post.

When I worked there a lot of employees talked to Rodger and told him about Aaron and Wiggington making sexual comments to the women. They would talk about hitting someone's ass or tell the employees they liked their breasts or Aaron would talk about his big penis. It was no secret, everybody knew.Rodger knew what employees were being harassed and abused and he knew which ones were marked by Aaron and Wiggington for termination. When you talked to Rodger he would sit and listen but more and more of us started to notice that he would always try to twist things. He also would not write anything down. I know his memory isn't that good! He would tell employees they misunderstood what they were told or that the manager had not meant what they thought he meant or that they were just being too sensitive. He was always on managment's side and not interested in fixing the problem.
From what I read it sounds like no one trust him anymore and they shouldn't. When I think about it now I wonder how he could tell any employee that they misunderstood what a manager said when he wasn't even in the room when it was said. I know for a fact he was sitting in the room right next to Charles and Charles told Kim come here so I can whip your ass. If says he wasn't then he's a liar. And I bet if you subpeona the investigator's records you will find that employees told him that Kim was harassed by Charles. It was Rodger and the board who let Charles come back and get away with breaking the law.

Employees were interviewed about wiggs harassing Kim. What happen to their information? I'm sure they did not defend wiggs. But the board needed a black to lead the credit union, lead it right into the toilet.

There are employees who have accounts at the credit union. Why haven't they banded and demanded that management explain where they are spending member money? They have a right to do so because they are owners of the cu just like any other member. As for hr it sounds like it needs to be completely dismantled. Is the vp still running the department? They should be asked by former and present employees to prove how they resolved complaints.

This is to P1's management.

I just got your letter that you are adding priority pay to my checking account. Who wrote this, a 3 year old?

The letter doesn't tell me the amount of my overdraft.

The letter doesn't tell me what my limit is.

I have overdraft protection now. Is priority pay going to be used instead of my current overdraft or will my overdraft be used first?

If I happen to write a check and don't have enough money or Priority
Pay to cover it, am I going to be charged an NSF fee plus the priority pay fee?

You do know that the law requires that you should have included a disclosure with the letter. Where is the disclosure? I didn't get one. I bet you didn't include the disclosure with any of the letters you mailed out.

You don't know your members. In the past, when members were offered $300 overdraft, a lot of them took advantage of the coverage. Some even visited branches and withdrew the $300 overdraft because you did not have the right language in place from keeping them from doing so.

Do you have a policy for prioirity pay because if you don't you are in big trouble!.

And why did you not provide a disclosure about collections?

And are you only offering priority pay to some members? If you are, are you sure you haven't violated Equal Opportunity laws?

What about direct deposit?

If this is only offered to members with good standing what happens if a member's account is closed for example because of abuse. Their teenager later opens a teen account which requires that a parent be a coapplicant. Does that mean you're going to allow the parent whose account was closed because of abuse to be a cosigner on their child's account?

Is this another Wiggington mess or is it the new coo? Do you guys even know what you're doing?

You’re Priority Pay is indeed poorly written, it states that exceeding you allocated limit will result in checks being returned to the payee. However it dose not state what the limit is, so if you write one check for $5,000.00 will Priority Pay cove that? What does happen to the $300.00 overdraft? And in what order will the overdraft come from?

Can you go to the tell line and overdraft your account there? You take about Levies or liens yet some members still have check accounts with BK’s and write offs do they also get P1 pay?

Your overdrafts will be paid at the discretion of the credit union? Who is making the decisions? And on what basics sound like “if we like you your checks will get paid”

“Exceeding your allocated P1 Pay Limit” OK stupid what is the limit!

By the way dose your COO know what a disclosure is? We know neither Rodger nor Wigg dose not.

Finally” at the end of each day make every attempt possible” this is the best ever
Who the hell are you writing to 2sd graders?

Sorry but there is one more not one officer of the credit union signed this letter.

Anonymous said...

You're right. I got the same letter and it excludes all of required information and it is unsigned. I called Priority One and I don't know who I spoke to but they couldn't answer a lot of my questions about priority pay. You think if they are offering it they should know. And that letter is written so poorly that I wonder if they think they're members are idiots. Doesn't the president or coo review these things before they are mailed out? If the board had any brains which based on what I read, they don't, they would ask employees to tell them what they think about the way the cu is being run. They could even do it anonymously so employees don't feel threatened. I would rather hear the truth and the facts then pretend nothing is wrong.

If you got a letter approving you for priority pay, write a check for let's say, $10,000, and see the credit union pays it. Make sure you only have .42 cents in your account when you try and cash the check.

Mr. Gathers said...

To anoymyous. You wrote,

"You’re Priority Pay is indeed poorly written."
Answer: If you think that's poorly written read their annual reports.

"However it dose not state what the limit is, so if you write one check for $5,000.00 will Priority Pay cover that?"

Answer: They'll cover that like they covered up for Wiggington when he was investigated for sexual harassment.

"Can you go to the teller line and overdraft your account there?"

Answer: You can go to the teller line but will probably have to stand forever before someone helps you.

"You talk about Levies or liens yet some members still have check accounts with BK’s and write offs do they also get P1 pay?"

Answer: Didn't you hear at Priority One you can bounce one check and get fired but kite like crazy and get promoted.

Your overdrafts will be paid at the discretion of the credit union? Who is making the decisions? And on what basis?
Sounds like “if we like you your checks will get paid”

Answer: Discrimination? Oh no, that's unheard of at P1.

“Exceeding your allocated P1 Pay Limit” OK stupid what is the limit!"

Answer: They don't know.

"By the way dose your COO know what a disclosure is? We know neither Rodger nor Wigg does not."

Answer: Obviously she doesn't.

"Finally” at the end of each day make every attempt possible”

Answer: P1 wants members to make every attempt but they won't make any. Case in point- the board.

"Who the hell are you writing to? 2nd graders?"

Answer: You're confused, they're the 2nd graders.

"Sorry but there is one more note. Not one officer of the credit union signed this letter."

Answer: No, that way no one takes the blame if they mess this up. Oh wait, they did. Oops.

You guys are too hard on Mr Wiggington. Sure he took the member's car but the member couldn't pay for it and its not like he was going use it for much longer, is it?

And did he really commit sexual harassment? Maybe the employee was misbehaving and he thought she needed a spanking.

Did he really interfere with the 09election? He knew if he lost any members of the board that the board would not be able to continue doing the great job its doing and make the credit union a great place to bank and work.

Sure he removed the old marketing director but maybe he just got tired of seeing her win all those awards, year after year, for all those all those great campaigns. If you think about it, she kept winning so many awards that they were running out of room where they could keep them.

And Manny deserved to leave. If he wasn't ging to cook the books then he needed to go.

And sure the board doesn't know what they're doing, but its not like they get paid to be board members. They're there for free, so maybe you people should be nicer to them.

And I am so sick and tired of hearing that the board picked him because he is black. What were they supposed to do, pick him because he was competent or had good manners? Of course not, so picking him because of skin color is as good a reason as any.

And so what if Mr Wiggington got a good looking woman with a really bad credit score, a loan she didn't deserve. Did you guys forget the credit union motto, 'people helping beautiful people'?

And as for Rodger, he's okay. All he's doing is controlling the population. Plus, I like Ricky Martin too.

So next time, before you point a finger at Wiggington or the board remember they have good reasons for what they do. Its not about good or bad, smart or stupid, black or white, its about using your power any way you can.

Love,

Cornelia

I haven't read the letter but can someone post a part of it here on this blog or send it to John. Maybe he can post it. I think if priority pay is a new product and if is something the cu charges for then the cu had to provide a disclosure with the letter and they had to include info about collections. I visited priorityonecu.org but there is nothing mentioned about priority pay. If a member has a question about priority pay it might be convenient to mention it on the webpage. Webpages are not just for visitors they are for members to use when they need info.

I also read some of their info on loan modification and atm locations and really from a business stand point, they need to hire a marketing company to write their copy. Terms like current environment mean nothing plus adding reasons like income plus increase adjustable mortgage rate payment, divorce, etc, etc, etc is too much and more than people want to read. They have a warning about third party vendors seeking "huge payment of loss mitigation solutions." Do they really think most readers know what is loss mitigation solutions? It also says, "You can also find an atm at a participating credit union branch." Participating in what? Maybe they meant shared branching but they don't say it. And it also says "conduct business ON your Priority One..." ON? Please.

Its true, Diedra told Wigg to get Maggie but he would have fired Maggie, anyway. Wigg didn't like Maggie because Mr Harris liked her and because unlike Wigg who would backstab his own mammie, Maggie wasn't afraid of him. It was stupid and it cost P1 business. No Maggie, no marketing, no business. Wigg is a reason some animals kill their young.

Any member of the credit union, if a member writes or calls the credit union and asks for the board report they can receive a copy and the month financials that you do not post in all branches they can get a copy of that also.

So the Hitler’s of the credit union can stop hiding the credit union financials and post them like the should members need to write a letter to the DFI

Ok Board members when we asked for you to make a comment on the blog, We did not mean to make a stupid one, if you look at the top you will see that the blog had almost 1,000 hits over the week end, so it seems this blog is far from over.

For the 1 person who backs up the board and Piggy-Wigg if you did your research before posting a stupid comment, you would see that is blog is picking up more and more readers.

Of course that’s why P1 is falling apart you do not read nor listen the Senior and board just jump around and pretend that they know what they are doing.

As the place is falling apart it makes it very clear that indeed Morons are running the place.

Its a great lesson on what you should never do and should be a lesson on what you don't want in a board. Its definitely read on 2 coasts by lots of people and there are even copies made and passed out to people who don't have a home computer. What I wish Wiggingtons supporters would do is present some evidence that proves he has done anything wrong but based on their always stupid comments, don't expect to see proof that he is anything but a failure.

Bea was hired to save the credit union and help balance expenses but her call center, new $5000 computer, remodeling the offices, and some not so successful programs
explain why she's not at Universal Studios FCU. Why was she hired?

Diedra is a wanna-be ghetto queen. She knows nothing about financials and so she has to call attorneys all the time to get advice she should already know. BTW, the attorneys charge $350 an hour. Wonder why the cu spent more than $100,000 in legal, look at Diedra.

Then there's Rodger. Why hasn't anyone sued the cu or named him in a lawsuit? Talk about someone whose doom day is ooming up quickly. That's why his ass was fired from Superior Industries.

Then you have the biggest liar you'll ever meet, C. Wiggingidiot.
He doesnt' know anything about financals. When he became president he was told and told quite clearly, that Mr Harris provided him a great foundation. All he had to do was follow Harris' formula. Of course not, he decided to spend $600,000 on a phone system that is just like him-a big failure. In Dec 09 he spent another $8000 to fix the system. Guess what, its still not working. He sexually harassaed a woman, took a car from a member, retaliated and destroyed employee jobs, amd talked about when he was young (which was a LONG time ago)and how he and his buddy picked up 3 girls and how he and the FAT GIRL went into a room and had sex. How do you ever share this in business? He also said FAT girls are better in bed because they're grateful. How do you share this in business? Clown boy is a mess and he is the one who vented on the blog because it showed everyone who he really is.

You are so right Diedra will try to do something to control the election. She is more than evil!

Going to the DFI is the only way to get something done. The supervisory committee is suppose to have the power to get rid of the board but they are as ignorant as the Board. If POCU continues as is and treats it's employees like dogs then there will be more lawsuits and uprisings. Wise up. Get rid of all Senior Management.

Bea has remold her office and is making all the calls, she is running the credit union while wigg sits there and watches his little power go to hell. Sad but true Bea will be the next CEO with the help from Diedra, and you can bet your last dollar the Diedra will stack the board, Her sister or brother or someone she knows will run.

Bea may indeed be the next CEO but in all likelihood the CU will be taken over by the NCUA anyway....with capital now under 7% and more losses on the way, it seems unlikely she or anyone else can stop the hemorrhaging. Add to that the NCUA premiums that are all but guaranteed this year and you have a recipe for disaster .... gotta go...want to make sure I get a good seat on a lifeboat
