Acceptance of Delinquent Payments

A lender must credit a payment to a borrower's account on the date of receipt, except when a delay in crediting does not result in a finance charge or other charge. However, if the lender specifies, in a writing delivered to the borrower, reasonable requirements for the consumer to follow in making payments, but accepts a payment that does not conform to those requirements, then the lender must credit the payment within 5 days after receipt.
