Q: What is a decline fee?<br />

A: A decline fee will be assessed when your balance is not enough to cover the ATM or purchase<br />

transaction amount; when in doubt, use Comdata’s FREE Interactive Voice Response (IVR) at 1-<br />

888-265-8228 to check your balance prior to conducting the transaction.<br />

Q: What should I do if I lose my new Comdata <strong>Pay</strong>card?<br />

A: Contact your manager immediately. They will be able to issue you a new card right away (instant<br />

issue card) that will be embossed with the company name, Cinemark. If you chose to have a<br />

personalized Master<strong>Card</strong> with your name embossed, you will need to contact Comdata’s<br />

<strong>Card</strong>holder Services department at 888-265-8828. There is a $5.00 fee from Comdata for this<br />

type of card, and the fee will be deducted from your balance immediately upon ordering. Make<br />

sure your balance is enough to cover this fee. This process also takes up to seven business days<br />

to receive your personalized card at your home address.<br />

Q: What information is required when I call Comdata’s <strong>Card</strong>holder Service at 1-888-265-8228?<br />

A: You will need to provide your name, card number, activation code (last 4-digits of your social<br />

security number), access code and your company name (Cinemark).<br />

Q: What should I do if I “deactivate” my pay card?<br />

A: If you make multiple attempts using an incorrect PIN or Access Code, the pay card will “deactivate”<br />

or have a “blocked status” as a security measure. If this happens, you must call Comdata<br />

<strong>Card</strong>holder Services to reactivate your card. After your pay card is reactivated, your PIN will<br />

remain the same.<br />

Q: What should I do if I forget my PIN number?<br />

A: Contact Comdata <strong>Card</strong>holder Services at 1-888-265-8228 to reset your PIN. After the Operator<br />

has reset your PIN, you will need to activate the new PIN number by following the steps in the IVR.<br />

Refer to your Welcome Kit for complete instructions. Comdata does not store PIN numbers for<br />

security reasons; they can only reset your PIN. They will not be able to tell you what your PIN<br />

number was.<br />

Q: Can I use this card to buy gas, rent a car or stay in a hotel?<br />

A: Yes. Keep in mind that purchasing gas needs to be done inside and not at the pump. Gas<br />

stations usually place a pre-authorized amount on your card until the purchase posts. The preauthorized<br />

amounts will take away from your available balance (merchants can hold up to seven<br />

business days). The same applies to hotels and rental cars.<br />
