Through an agreement with Credit Union Resources and Office Depot, you can receive deep discounts on your office supply needs. The program is only available to members of the Texas Credit Union League. This program makes the process of ordering and receiving the most commonly used office supplies quick and easy.  Some of the most frequently asked questions with the answers you need are listed below.

WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR SPONSORS OF THE CREDIT UNIONS OR SEGS?

Sponsor or SEG will be assigned a separate account number
This differentiates them from the credit union, but still allows them to take advantage of the discounts.

WHAT ARE THE DISCOUNTS FOR THE PROGRAM?
Overall the discount averages approximately 10% off the "Business Services Division's catalog price".  The "catalog" price is generally 50% to 70% off the standard List price.
Once the account is activated, the discounts will automatically be applied to all orders placed.

IF I AM A CURRENT OFFICE DEPOT CUSTOMER, HOW DO I CHANGE PROGRAMS?
The conversion is the same as a new client.  You follow the same procedures as outlined earlier.  Be sure to review your current pricing with the account rep to ensure that your current pricing is not better than the pricing through this program.  There is a space on the enrollment form to include your account number if you already have one.

IF I AM WITH A COMPETITOR, HOW DO I CONVERT?  HOW LONG AM I OBLIGATED TO HONOR THIS PROGRAM?
Since this program is not exclusive, you can sign up regardless of any other provider.  There is no contract.  You are free to use Office Depot exclusively or in any combination with other provider that fit your individual needs.  If you decide you want to discontinue the program, simply stop ordering.
 
HOW QUICKLY CAN I CONVERT?  
Immediately!  After you submit your application, it takes 8 days for processing. If prior to credit being linked you need to place an order, you can do so by phone or fax and charge to a credit card.  Once the account is activated with credit, you will also be able to order online.
 
MAY I CUSTOMIZE THE PRODUCT LIST?
The product list consists of 151 items.  There are no additions to the list and cannot be changed. It contains every day office products and offers the deepest discounts. It is suggested that you order from this list to fully take advantage of the program.  

HOW DO I ORDER MY SUPPLIES?
Phone, fax, on-line, or simply walking into any convenient retail outlet.
 
IF I ORDER SUPPLIES BY PHONE, FAX OR ON-LINE, HOW QUICKLY WILL THE SUPPLIES BE DELIVERED?
Most orders are delivered the follow day by Office Depot's own trucks.  Some outlying areas will have UPS 2-day delivery because of their remote locations.
 
HOW AM I BILLED AND WHAT IS THE PROCESS FOR DISPUTES?
Invoices go out on a weekly basis.  Office Depot has a "no questions asked" 30 day return policy.  If a dispute does arise, Office Depot provides a customer service line to handle problems that are more serious.  If that fails, TCUL will assist in resolving these matters. 

HOW DO I MAKE CHANGES TO OUR ACCOUNT?
