Firm Name: NATCITY INVESTMENTS
Termination Type: Discharged
Allegations: VIOLATION OF FIRM POLICY REGARDING CHECK HANDLING.
Broker Comment: I HELD A CUSTOMER CHECK FOR $275 BECAUSE PAPERWORK WAS INCOMPLETE AND NEEDED ADDTIONAL INFO. THE CHECK WAS HELD PENDING COMPLETION OF THE ACCOUNT PAPERWORK, AND SEVERAL MONTHS PASSED WITHOUT GETTING THE ADDITIONAL PAPERWORK COMPLETED. I ALSO DISCOVERED THE OFFICIAL CHECK ORIGINALLY USED WAS INCORRECT, AND HAD IT REISSUED BY A BRANCH TELLER USING A "NOT USED FOR PURPOSE INTENDED" ENDORSEMENT. I WROTE IN THE CUSTOMER'S NAME, IN ERROR ACCORDING TO NATIONAL CITY, AND IMMEDIATELY HAD A TELLER REISSUE A NEW CHECK FOR $275 MADE TO COLLEGE AMERICA TO COMPLY WITH THE CUSTOMERS INITIAL REQUEST. AT NO TIME DID I USE THE $275 FOR MY OWN PURPOSE OR ANY PURPOSE OTHER THAN FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CLIENT. THERE WAS NO INTENT TO VIOLATE FIRM POLICY OR MISAPPROPRIATE FUNDS, AND NATCITY HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THIS. THE ERROR CAME FROM BEING UNAWARE OF THE PROPER PROCEDURES TO FOLLOW IN A CASE SUCH AS THIS.
