2. HOW YOU AGREE TO THIS AGREEMENT:

You agree to the terms of this Agreement and you make the promises it contains by either applying for or accepting an Account or making a purchase using PayPal Credit after receipt of this Agreement.

3. TYPES OF PURCHASES AND TRANSACTIONS:

STANDARD PURCHASES

You can make a Standard Purchase using this Account by choosing the PayPal Credit Payment System when you make a purchase from a Merchant at a website, by telephone, or at another authorized location. We will extend credit to you, in the amount of the Cost of the Purchase, by paying the Merchant on your behalf.

CASH ADVANCES

You can make a Cash Advance using this Account by choosing to Send Money. We will extend credit to you, in the amount of the Cost of the Cash Advance, by authorizing PayPal, Inc. to transmit the Cost of the Cash Advance to the designated recipient via the Send Money feature. You may not use the Cash Advance feature to send money to yourself. We have the right to decline Cash Advance transactions for any reason, for example, if fraudulent or high risk behavior is suspected.

PROMOTIONAL PURCHASES: DEFERRED INTEREST PURCHASES

There are two types of Deferred Interest Purchases:
No Payments + No Interest if paid in full Purchases Deferred Interest Purchases on which no payments will be due during the deferred interest period.
No Interest if paid in full Purchases Deferred Interest Purchases on which minimum monthly payments will be due during the deferred interest period.
The deferred interest period may be six months or more as disclosed when the transaction is made.

If you pay the balance on a Deferred Interest Purchase in full by the Expiration Date, we will not charge any interest for that Purchase. We will calculate the interest for each Billing Cycle prior to the Expiration Date and disclose it on the billing statement as the Accrued Deferred Interest. If you do not pay the balance in full before the Expiration Date, (1) we may charge your Account, in the Billing Cycle in which the Expiration Date occurs, interest on that Promotional Purchase from the transaction posting date, and (2) any remaining balance will be treated as a Standard Purchase beginning on the Expiration Date.

PROMOTIONAL PURCHASES: EASY PAYMENTS

There are two types of Easy Payments Purchases:
Easy Payments + No Interest Purchases Easy Payments Purchases that are not subject to interest, if you pay the balance in full by the End Date.
Financed Easy Payments Purchases Easy Payments Purchases that are subject to interest at an APR disclosed at the time of purchase, not to exceed 19.99%.
We may offer this as the only method you can use to make a Purchase from a Merchant, or as an option to the Standard Purchase and/or Deferred Interest Purchase method. Easy Payments Purchases will be subject to the terms offered at the time of the transaction by the Merchant. If you do not pay the balance in full by the End Date, any remaining balance will be treated as a Standard Purchase.
4. YOUR CREDIT LINE AND OTHER AGREEMENTS:
Credit Line At the time you open your Account and request your first extension of credit, we will evaluate your request for credit. If we extend you credit, we will disclose to you the total amount of your Credit Line, which will be no less than $250.00.

The total balances of all types of transactions on the Account plus transactions which have been authorized but not yet posted to the Account (but not including unpaid fees) may not exceed the Credit Line.

If you try to make a Purchase or Cash Advance that would cause your outstanding balance to be above your Credit Line, we may treat that as a request to increase the Credit Line.

For example: If your Credit Line is $650.00, you have a $200.00 balance, and you try to make a Purchase or request a Cash Advance of $500.00, we may treat this as a request for an increase in the Credit Line. If we approve this transaction, your new Credit Line will be $700.00.

We have the option to refuse a request for an increase, but we will notify you of the reasons for any refusal. We may allow you to complete a transaction in excess of your available credit without increasing your Credit Line under certain circumstances, such as if you have a previous "non-sufficient funds" payment on your Account.

We may increase, decrease or change your Credit Line at any time. We will notify you if we do so.

From time to time, we may review your Account to ensure that payments and transactions posting to your Account are valid and not fraudulent and that good funds are collected for payments. In doing so, we may temporarily limit your ability to utilize the total credit available to borrow until the Account review is completed and/or transactions and payments are confirmed to be valid and fully collected.
We May Charge your Account for Purchases and Cash Advances You authorize us to charge this Account for the Cost of any Purchase or Cash Advance you, or anyone to whom you have given permission to use this Account, make using PayPal Credit. You understand that the amount that we actually pay to the Merchant for any Purchase or that PayPal, Inc. pays to any recipient of a Cash Advance may be less than the Cost of the Purchase or Cash Advance, because: (i) the Merchant may agree that we or a third party may retain a portion of the Cost in order to participate in PayPal Credit, or (ii) PayPal, Inc. may charge you fees for facilitating a Send Money transaction, which may be equal to the total of: (1) a percentage of the Cash Advance extended in connection with the Send Money transaction, plus (2) a transaction fee.
We May Charge your Account for Interest and Fees You authorize us to charge this Account for interest, any fees, costs of collection, and other amounts that you agree to pay in this Agreement.
5. YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION:
Purchases By making a Purchase, you authorize the Merchant to share your personal information (including email address) with us to verify your identity, make a credit decision, complete your transaction, service your Account, and/or for any other lawful purpose.
Cash Advances By requesting a Cash Advance, you authorize us to share your information with PayPal, Inc. to complete your Send Money transaction. You also authorize PayPal, Inc. to share your personal information (including email address) with us to verify your identity, make a credit decision, complete your Send Money transaction, service your Account, and/or for any other lawful purpose.
6. YOUR PROMISES TO US:
Promise to Pay You promise to repay to us all extensions of credit (including any and all Purchases and Cash Advances) you have authorized us to charge to this Account and any accrued interest, fees, collection costs, and other amounts that you agree to pay in this Agreement. We may presume you authorized any Purchase using this Account, if the Purchase is delivered in your name to your address, unless you return the Purchase to the Merchant within a reasonable time.
Minimum Payment Due You promise to pay at least the Minimum Payment Due on or before the Payment Due Date each Billing Cycle and in accordance with the reasonable requirements set forth on each billing statement.
Personal Financial Information You promise to give us personal financial information about you that we may reasonably request, from time to time.
Collection Costs You promise to pay all costs of collection if we take any action to collect this Account or take any action in a bankruptcy proceeding filed by or against you, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, if permitted by applicable law.
Your Contact Information You promise to promptly notify us if you change your name, mailing address, email address, or telephone number. In doing so, you agree that you will not give us false information or signatures, electronic or otherwise, at any time.
Age and Residency You promise that you are of legal age in the state where you reside and are a resident of the United States when you accept this Agreement and open the Account.
Merchant Disputes You promise that, if you are dissatisfied with goods or services you purchased from a Merchant, you will try in good faith to resolve the dispute and correct the problem directly with the Merchant. This shall in no way limit or reduce your rights in case of a billing error.
Use of Account You promise to use this Account only for personal, family, or household purposes.
7. INTEREST RATE AND INTEREST CHARGES:

You agree to pay interest on the outstanding balance of this Account until paid in full, as applicable. Interest may be calculated differently depending on the type of transaction. Interest begins to accrue on the transaction posting date, except interest does not accrue on any portion of a Standard Purchase or Cash Advance that you repay during the Grace Period, if a Grace Period applies.

GRACE PERIOD

Standard Purchases & Cash Advances There is a Grace Period of at least 25 days on new Standard Purchases and Cash Advances. This means we will not charge interest on these transactions if you pay them in full by the Payment Due Date. For example, if:
  • You make a $500.00 Standard Purchase on January 1 and a $100.00 Cash Advance on January 2;
  • We send you a statement on or about January 15 with a Payment Due Date of February 12; and
  • You pay $600.00 (the full amount) by February 12; then
  • You will not be charged any interest on these transactions.
You’ll lose your Grace Period if you pay anything less than the total of new Standard Purchases and Cash Advances on any statement by the Payment Due Date. If you lose your Grace Period, you’ll owe interest on any unpaid balance of a transaction to which the Grace Period previously applied from the first day of the next Billing Cycle and interest on new transactions from the date of posting. For example:
  • You make a $500.00 Standard Purchase on January 1 and a $100.00 Cash Advance on January 2;
  • We send you a statement on or about January 15 with a Payment Due Date of February 12; and
  • You pay $400.00 (only part of the full amount) by February 12; then
    • You will not be charged any interest on the amount you paid ($400.00);
    • You will be charged interest on the remaining amount ($200.00) from the first day of the next Billing Cycle, February 16; and
    • New transactions will not qualify for the Grace Period.
To qualify for the Grace Period again, you must pay your Standard Purchases and Cash Advance balances in full.
Deferred Interest Purchases Deferred Interest Purchases do not have a Grace Period. However, you can avoid paying interest on a Deferred Interest Purchase by paying the balance in full by the Expiration Date. If you do not pay the balance in full by the Expiration Date, you will be charged interest from the transaction posting date.
Easy Payments Easy Payments Purchases do not have a Grace Period. However, for Easy Payments + No Interest Purchases, you can avoid paying interest by paying the balance in full by the End Date. If you do not pay the balance in full by the End Date, any remaining balance will begin to accrue interest. Financed Easy Payments Purchases begin to accrue interest on the transaction posting date.

HOW WE CALCULATE INTEREST

We calculate interest for each Billing Cycle using the Average Daily Balance (including new Purchases and Cash Advances) method. A separate daily balance is calculated for each balance type. These balance types include, for example, Standard Purchases, Cash Advances, and different Promotional Purchases.

How We Get To The Average Daily Balance We take the starting balance each day for each balance type, add any new charges and fees, and subtract any payments and credits (treating any net credit balance as zero). This gives us the daily balance. Then, we add up all the daily balances for the Billing Cycle and divide the total by the number of days in the Billing Cycle. The result is the Average Daily Balance for each balance type.
How We Get The Interest Charge For Each Balance Type We multiply each Average Daily Balance for the Billing Cycle by the number of days in the Billing Cycle. Then we multiply this by the Daily Periodic Rate. We do this for each day in the Billing Cycle. This gives us the daily interest charges for each of your different balances. "Daily Periodic Rate" is a daily interest rate. The daily periodic rate for a given balance is equal to the APR for that balance divided by 365.
How We Get The Interest Charge For The Billing Cycle We will then add up the interest for all the balance types, to get the interest for the Account.

MINIMUM INTEREST CHARGE

We charge a minimum of $2.00 of interest in any Billing Cycle in which you owe interest on Standard Purchases and/or Cash Advances.

RATE OF INTEREST

We calculate interest on Standard Purchases, Promotional Purchases (except Financed Easy Payments), and Cash Advances using the Daily Periodic Rate of 0.05477%. This corresponds to the APR of 19.99%. However, if we have disclosed a special promotional rate at the time we made the special offer, we will calculate interest on balances subject to that special offer using the applicable special promotional rate.
8. FEES:
You agree to pay the following fees, as applicable.
Late Payment Fee We will charge you a Late Fee for each Billing Cycle the Minimum Payment Due is not paid in full by its Payment Due Date. The Late Fee will be the amount of the missed payment, up to:
  • $25.00 the first time you are late, and
  • $35.00 if your payment is late again within the next six Billing Cycles.
However, the Late Fee will not exceed $5.00 if the Minimum Payment Due is less than $25.00.
Return Check Fee We will charge you a Return Check Fee of up to $25.00 if a payment on this Account is made with a check, including a draft, order, or other instrument, that is returned by a drawee for “not sufficient funds” or other reasons such as a closed account. The fee will not exceed the Minimum Payment Due immediately prior to the date on which the payment is returned. We will not charge the fee if we redeposit the check and it is paid.
9. MINIMUM PAYMENTS DUE:
The Minimum Payment Due each Billing Cycle will be the sum of the payments due on your Account balances as calculated below plus any amounts past due from previous Billing Cycles.
Standard Purchases, Cash Advances, & No Interest If Paid In Full Purchases The payment due for Standard Purchases, Cash Advances and No Interest if paid in full Purchases will be the greatest of:
  • $25.00, or $35.00 if you failed to pay at least the Minimum Payment Due by the Payment Due Date in any one or more of the prior six Billing Cycles; or
  • 3% of the balances on the Account (excluding any balance on a No Payments + No Interest if paid in full Purchase prior to its Expiration Date and Easy Payments Purchase prior to its End Date) on the last day of the Billing Cycle; or
  • 1% of the balances on the Account (excluding any balance on a No Payments + No Interest if paid in full Purchase prior to its Expiration Date and Easy Payments Purchase prior to its End Date) on the last day of the Billing Cycle plus:
    • Any interest assessed in that Billing Cycle (excluding any accrued interest on a Deferred Interest Purchase billed in that Billing Cycle); and
    • Any Late Fees and Return Check Fees assessed in that Billing Cycle.
However, if your unpaid balance of Standard Purchases, Cash Advances and/or No Interest if paid in full Purchases is less than the amount described above, the payment due will be that unpaid balance.
No Payments + No Interest If Paid In Full Purchases There is no payment due for a No Payments + No Interest if paid in full Purchase prior to its Expiration Date.
Easy Payments Purchases The payment due for each Easy Payments Purchase will be the Monthly Plan Payment. To determine the Monthly Plan Payment amount, we divide the Easy Payments Purchase amount by the number of months between the Purchase and the scheduled End Date. The Monthly Plan Payment due on the scheduled End Date (or sooner if you pay off the balance early) may be more or less than the others, because it will be adjusted as necessary to pay the amount you owe at that time.
10. PAYMENT APPLICATION AND PREPAYMENT:

We will use each payment in the amount of the Minimum Payment Due or less, first to pay billed Monthly Plan Payments on any Easy Payments Purchases, then billed interest, then billed fees, then the principal balance, and then any other amounts due. However, if you have a balance on a Deferred Interest Purchase, during the two Billing Cycles immediately preceding its Expiration Date, we may use the payment, after the amount to pay billed Monthly Plan Payments on any Easy Payments Purchases to pay the balance on such Deferred Interest Purchase.

You may at any time pay, in whole or in part, the total unpaid balance without any additional charge for prepayment. If you pay more than the Minimum Payment Due in any Billing Cycle, you still must make the Minimum Payment Due the next Billing Cycle. We will use any amount in excess of the Minimum Payment Due to pay the balances with the highest interest rate, then the next highest interest rate, and so forth. However, during the two Billing Cycles immediately preceding the Expiration Date of any Deferred Interest Purchase, we may use payments first to pay the balance on such Deferred Interest Purchase(s). We may choose to apply prepayments to the Deferred Interest Purchase balances before other balances.

11. BILLING STATEMENTS AND CREDIT BALANCES:
Billing Statements We will provide a billing statement for each Billing Cycle if and as required by applicable law. We need not provide a billing statement to you if we deem this Account uncollectible or if delinquency collection proceedings have been started. We may provide electronic billing statements only. You can elect to receive paper statements by calling 1-866-528-3733 or logging in to www.billmelater.com or www.paypal.com.
Credit Balances We will refund any credit balance in excess of $1.00 to you as required by law. You authorize us to make the refund electronically or using an electronic transfer, (i) if you made the payment which caused the credit balance electronically, or using an electronic transfer, or (ii) if you typically make payments on this Account electronically. If you maintain an account with PayPal, Inc., you authorize us to refund any credit balance directly to that account.
Errors You agree to notify us of any errors in the billing statement within 60 days from the date it is provided. You agree to examine each billing statement and to notify us, immediately, of any Purchases which were not made or authorized by you.

Other terms and provisions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with applicable law of the state of Utah, without regard to principles of conflicts of law, except to the extent preempted, superseded, or supplemented by Federal law.

Additionally, except to the extent preempted, superseded, or supplemented by Federal law and except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, the laws of the State of Utah, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and us.
Forum for Disputes Except as otherwise agreed by the parties, in the event that the Agreement to Arbitrate in Section 19 below is found not to apply to you or to a dispute either as a result of your decision to opt-out of the Agreement to Arbitrate or by the arbitrator or a court order, you agree that any claim or dispute you may have against us must be resolved by a court located in Utah. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Utah for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.
19. AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE:
Please read this provision carefully. It affects your rights and will impact how legal claims you and we have against each other are resolved if you do not opt-out of this Agreement to Arbitrate.
Opt-Out Procedure IF YOU ARE A NEW PAYPAL CREDIT USER, YOU CAN CHOOSE TO REJECT THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ("OPT-OUT") BY MAILING US A WRITTEN OPT-OUT NOTICE ("OPT-OUT NOTICE"). THE OPT-OUT NOTICE MUST BE POSTMARKED NO LATER THAN 30 DAYS AFTER THE DATE YOU AGREE TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR THE FIRST TIME. YOU MUST MAIL THE OPT-OUT NOTICE TO BILL ME LATER, INC., ATTN: LITIGATION DEPARTMENT, RE: OPT-OUT NOTICE, 2211 NORTH FIRST STREET, SAN JOSE, CA 95131.

For your convenience, we are providing an Opt-Out Notice form at which you must complete and mail to opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate. You must complete the Opt-Out Notice form by providing the information called for in the form, including your name, address, phone number, email address, and Account number of the Account to which the opt-out applies. You must sign the Opt-Out Notice for it to be effective. This procedure is the only way you can opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate. If you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, all other parts of the Terms and Conditions will continue to apply. Opting out of this Agreement to Arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with us.
You and We Agree to Arbitrate Disputes Between Us If a dispute arises between you and us, our goal is to learn about and address your concerns and, if we are unable to do so to your satisfaction, to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. If you have a concern, please contact us first at (866) 528-3733 and we will do our best to resolve your concern to your satisfaction.

Unless you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, you and we each agree to resolve any Claims (as defined below) in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Agreement to Arbitrate. Pursuant to this Agreement to Arbitrate, any Claims will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert Claims in small claims court, if your Claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. The Terms and Conditions evidence a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate. The Agreement to Arbitrate shall survive the closing of your Account and/or the termination of the Terms and Conditions.
Claims Subject to Arbitration We and you (including users, custodians, and beneficiaries of your Account) agree to arbitrate any and all disputes or claims between you and us, including claims involving Bill Me Later, Inc. and its or the Lender’s agents, employees, officers, directors, predecessors in interest, and successors and assigns (“Claim(s)”). This Agreement to Arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted. Claims include, but are not limited to:
  • Federal and state statutory claims, common law claims, and those based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory;
  • Claims or disputes that arose before the effective date of the Terms and Conditions or any prior Terms and Conditions (including, but not limited to, claims relating to advertising, promotions, or disclosures); and
  • Claims or disputes that may arise after the termination of the Terms and Conditions.
Notice of Dispute A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a completed form Notice of Dispute ("Notice"). You may download a form Notice at Any Notice to the Lender or Bill Me Later, Inc. should be sent to Bill Me Later, Inc., Attn: Litigation Department, Re: Notice of Dispute, 2211 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95131. We will send any Notice to you to the mailing address we have on file associated with your Account; it is your responsibility to keep your mailing address up to date. All information called for in the Notice must be provided, including a description of the nature and basis of the Claims the party is asserting and the relief sought.

If you and we are unable to resolve the Claims described in the Notice within 30 days after the Notice is sent, you or we may initiate arbitration proceedings. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the website of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") at www.adr.org.
Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR(S) MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S OR PARTY'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR(S) MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER PAYPAL CREDIT USERS.
Arbitration Procedures Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator or arbitrators instead of a judge or jury, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, the arbitrator(s) can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to anvidual. indi The arbitrator(s) also must follow the terms of these Terms and Conditions as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator(s) to decide, except that issues relating to arbitrability, the scope or enforceability of this Agreement to Arbitrate, or the interpretation of the subsection above entitled "Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-individualized Relief," shall be for a court of competent jurisdiction to decide. The arbitration will be conducted by the AAA under its rules and procedures, including the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules (as applicable), as modified by this Agreement to Arbitrate. The AAA's rules are available at www.adr.org.

The arbitration shall be held in the county in which you reside or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or we may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on you and us subject to the discretion of the arbitrator(s) to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. Attendance at an in-person hearing may be made by telephone by you and/or us, unless the arbitrator(s) requires otherwise.

The arbitrator(s) will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with applicable law, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator(s) shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different PayPal Credit users, but is/are bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same PayPal Credit user to the extent required by applicable law. The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any settlement offer made by you or us shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator.
Costs of Arbitration Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement to Arbitrate. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, at your request, we will pay all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration. Any request for payment of fees by us should be submitted to the AAA in your Demand for Arbitration and we will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to the AAA. If the value of the relief sought is more than $10,000 and you are able to demonstrate that the costs of accessing arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of accessing a court for purposes of pursuing litigation on an individual basis, we will pay as much of the filing, administration, and arbitrator fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of accessing arbitration from being prohibitive. In the event the arbitrator determines the Claim(s) you assert in the arbitration to be frivolous, you agree to reimburse us for all fees associated with the arbitration paid by us on your behalf that you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the AAA's rules.
Severability and Future Amendments to the Agreement to Arbitrate With the exception of any of the provisions in the subsection of this Agreement to Arbitrate titled "Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief," if a court decides that any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply. If a court decides that any of the provisions in the subsection of this Agreement to Arbitrate titled "Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief" is invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall be null and void. The remainder of the Terms and Conditions will continue to apply.

Notwithstanding any provision in the Terms and Conditions to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make any amendment to this Agreement to Arbitrate (other than an amendment to any notice address or website link provided in the Agreement to Arbitrate) in the future, that amendment shall not apply to any Claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against us prior to the effective date of the amendment. The amendment shall apply to all other disputes or Claims governed by the Agreement to Arbitrate. We will notify you of amendments to this Agreement to Arbitrate by posting the amended terms on www.billmelater.com and www.paypal.com at least 30 days before the effective date of the amendments and by providing mail notice. If you do not agree to these amended terms, you may close your Account within the 30 day period and you will not be bound by the amended terms.
20. BILLING RIGHTS NOTICE:

The following notice is required by Federal law. In this notice, "credit card purchases" means Purchases and Cash Advances made with this Account.

Your Billing Rights: Keep This Document For Future Use
This notice tells you about your rights and our responsibilities under the Fair Credit Billing Act.

What To Do If You Find A Mistake On Your Statement
If you think there is an error on your statement, write to us at: PayPal Credit, P.O. Box 5018, Timonium, MD 21094.
In your letter, give us the following information:

You must contact us:

You must notify us of any potential errors in writing. You may call us or email us, but if you do we are not required to investigate any potential errors and you may have to pay the amount in question.

What Will Happen After We Receive Your Letter
When we receive your letter, we must do two things:

  1. Within 30 days of receiving your letter, we must tell you that we received your letter. We will also tell you if we have already corrected the error.
  2. Within 90 days of receiving your letter, we must either correct the error or explain to you why we believe the bill is correct.

While we investigate whether or not there has been an error:

After we finish our investigation, one of two things will happen:

If you receive our explanation but still believe your bill is wrong, you must write to us within 10 days telling us that you still refuse to pay. If you do so, we cannot report you as delinquent without also reporting that you are questioning your bill. We must tell you the name of anyone to whom we reported you as delinquent, and we must let those organizations know when the matter has been settled between us.
If we do not follow all of the rules above, you do not have to pay the first $50 of the amount you question even if your bill is correct.

Your Rights If You Are Dissatisfied With Your Credit Card Purchases
If you are dissatisfied with the goods or services that you have purchased with your credit card, and you have tried in good faith to correct the problem with the merchant, you may have the right not to pay the remaining amount due on the purchase.
To use this right, all of the following must be true:

  1. The purchase must have been made in your home state or within 100 miles of your current mailing address, and the purchase price must have been more than $50. (Note: Neither of these are necessary if your Purchase was based on an advertisement we mailed to you, or if we own the company that sold you the goods or services.)
  2. You must have used your credit card for the purchase. Purchases made with cash advances from an ATM or with a check that accesses your credit card account do not qualify.
  3. You must not yet have fully paid for the purchase.

If all of the criteria above are met and you are still dissatisfied with the purchase, contact us in writing at: PayPal Credit, P.O. Box 5018, Timonium, MD 21094.
While we investigate, the same rules apply to the disputed amount as discussed above. After we finish our investigation, we will tell you our decision. At that point, if we think you owe an amount and you do not pay, we may report you as delinquent.
