Early Warning Services
Early Warning Systems (previously Primary Payment Systems) is now being used by banks and credit unions the same as chexsystems. Along with other participating organizations, they now share information about potential customers that may be a risk.
Several organizations have partnered with Early Warning Services to help increase awareness and make the following services more accessible to credit unions.
Those wishing to obtain consumer report information should contact their Consumer Call Center at 800-325-7775. From what I have been told it is much easier to get a copy of your report with EWS than it is with Chexsystems. Apparently they will email you a form that you can mail or fax back to them. From what I have been able to tell, if you are reported to chexsystems then chances are good that you are reported to EWS. This seems especially true of those that have a Chexsystems report that has fraud indicated on it.
EWS is a credit reporting agency the same as chexsystems. Because of this, you are entitled to see a copy of your report and it is your right to dispute.
When you request a report from chexsystems, ews, or telecheck, avoid giving them any information that is not absolutely necessary.
For example: if they ask where you work and for the address, phone etc,. I would not give them the number. Tell them you are currently unemployed.
If they ask for current checking account information. Simply say you have none. Do not volunteer any information

Early Warning Services is a limited liability company owned by Bank of America, BB&T Corporation, JPMorgan Chase, Wachovia, and Wells Fargo.
One of the biggest problems that I am seeing from those that apply at banks and credit unions that use EWS is that this report is generally not being ran until some time after the account is already opened. It seems a week is standard. There are some branch managers that are not even aware of the fact they this report is used. It is common for the EWS report to be ran by the Loss Prevention Dept. or Risk Management Dept. of the bank or credit union instead of the branch when the account is opened.
Unfortunately this causes many accounts to be opened and closed at a later time. Again, it is typical for this to happen in about a week or two. If you have opened an account with a bank or credit union that uses EWS and the account has been opened more than a month, I would say that is is safe to assume that the account will NOT close.
