YOUR BILLING RIGHTS STATEMENT. KEEP THIS NOTICE FOR FUTURE USE
This Notice contains important information about your rights and our responsibilities under the Fair Credit Billing Act.
NOTIFY US IN CASE OF ERRORS OR QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR STATEMENT/BILLING AT: Velera: P.O. Box 31112, Tampa, FL 33631-3112
If you think your statement is wrong, or if you need more information about a transaction on your statement, you must write to us on a separate sheet of paper to the address listed in your periodic statement. You should write to us as soon as possible. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent you the first statement on which the error or problem appears. You can telephone us, but doing so will not preserve your rights. In your letter, you should give us the following information:
· Your name and account number
· The dollar amount of the suspected error
· Describe the error and explain, if you can, why you believe there is an error
· If you need more information, describe the item you are not sure about
If you have authorized us to pay your credit card bill automatically from your savings or checking account, you can stop payment on any amount you think is wrong. To stop the payment, your letter must reach us 3 business days before the automatic payment is scheduled to occur.
YOUR RIGHTS AND OUR RESPONSIBILITIES AFTER WE RECEIVE YOUR WRITTEN NOTICE:
We must acknowledge your letter within 30 days, unless we have corrected the error by then. Within 90 days, we must either correct the error or explain why we believe the bill was correct. After we receive your letter, we cannot try to collect any amount you question or report you as delinquent. We can continue to bill you for the amount you question, including FINANCE CHARGES, and we can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit. You do not have to pay any questioned amount while we are investigating, but you are still obligated to pay the parts of the bill that are not in question.
If we find that we made a mistake on your statement, you will not have to pay the FINANCE CHARGES related to any amount questioned. If we didn't make a mistake, you may have to pay FINANCE CHARGES, and you will have to make any missed payments on the amount questioned. In either case, we will send you a statement of the amount you owe us and the date that it is due.
If you fail to pay the amount, we think you owe us, we may report you as delinquent. However, if our explanation does not satisfy you and you write to us within 10 days telling us that you still refuse to pay, we must tell anyone we report you to that you have a question about your statement. And we must tell you the name of anyone we reported you to. We must tell anyone we report you to that the matter has been settled between you and us when it finally is. If we don't follow these rules, we can't collect the first $50.00 of the questioned amount, even if the statement was correct.
SPECIAL RULE FOR CREDIT CARD PURCHASES:
If you have a problem with the quality of property or services that you purchased with a 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 property or services. There are two limitations on this right:
- You must have made the purchases in your home state or, if not within your home state, within 100 miles of your current mailing address; and
- The purchase must have been more than $50.00.
These limitations do not apply if we own or operate the merchant, or if we mailed you the advertisement for the property or services.

THIS IS YOUR AGREEMENT AND DISCLOSURE STATEMENT WITH ONE NEVADA CREDIT UNION. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY AND KEEP IT FOR YOUR RECORDS. THIS DISCLOSURE IS DATED APRIL 30, 2025, AND SUPERSEDES ALL PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND DISCLOSURE STATEMENTS RELATING TO YOUR ACCOUNT. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SIGN THIS AGREEMENT. YOUR AGREEMENT WITH ALL OF THESE PROVISIONS, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME INCLUDING THE CARD ISSUED BY US, WILL BE SHOWN BY YOUR APPLICATION FOR THE CARD, YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE CARD, OR YOUR USE OF THE CARD, WHICHEVER OCCURS FIRST.

The words “you”, “your”, and “yours” mean all cardholders (borrowers and co-borrowers); anyone any cardholder permits to use the Card(s); as well as any authorized user for whom an additional Card(s) is issued to the extent of their purchases and cash advances, as well as transactions by anyone they permit to use the Card(s). The word “cardholder” means any applicant or co-applicant to whom a Card is issued by us. The words “Credit Union”, “we”, “us”, and “our” mean One Nevada Credit Union.
2. Pledge of Shares and Security Interest.
BY SIGNING AN APPLICATION, ACCEPTANCE OR AUTHORIZED USE OF ANY CREDIT CARDS, YOU GRANT AND PLEDGE A CONSENSUAL LIEN TO US ON ALL SHARES TO SECURE PAYMENT OF YOUR OBLIGATIONS ON THIS ACCOUNT. IN ADDITION, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE OUR STATUTORY LIEN RIGHTS UNDER NEVADA REVISED STATUTES; YOU AGREE THAT SUCH A LIEN IS IMPRESSED AS OF THE DATE THAT THIS ACCOUNT IS OPENED; AND YOU AGREE THAT WE CAN APPLY THE SHARES PLEDGED AT THE TIME OF ANY DEFAULT ON THIS ACCOUNT WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE.
“Shares” for the purpose of your pledge to secure your obligations to the Credit Union means all deposits in any share savings, share draft, club, certificate, P.O.D., revocable trust or custodial account(s), whether jointly or individually held – regardless of contributions, that you have on deposit now or in the future. Your pledge does not include any IRA or Keogh, tax escrow, irrevocable trust or fiduciary account in which you do not have a vested ownership interest.
SECURITY AGREEMENT: “Non-Purchase-Money Security Interest” Payments on your account are secured by any security interest in any property securing your other obligations to the Credit Union, whether existing now or in the future, except your household goods and your primary residence. “Purchase-Money Security Interests” You hereby grant Credit Union security interest in all property purchased/acquired by you or any authorized user pursuant to the use of this Account, including a purchase-money security interest in any household goods purchased/acquired with an extension of credit upon this Account. These Purchase-Money Security Interests shall secure faithful performance of all obligations arising under this Agreement, and the Credit Union shall have all the rights of a secured party in accordance with Article Nine of the Uniform Commercial Code and/or other applicable law.
3. How to Use this Account. You must sign the Card in order to use it. You can purchase or lease goods and services (“Purchases”) from any merchant who honors your Card up to your maximum credit limit by presenting your Card and authorizing for the amount of the Purchase. You many also use the Card to obtain cash loans (“Cash Advances”) up to your maximum credit limit from financial institutions that accept the VISA credit card. You agree not to present your Card, obtain a Cash Advance for any extension of credit in excess of your available Credit Limit (the difference between your outstanding balance and your maximum credit limit) on your account. Certain purchases and cash advances require authorization prior to completion of the transaction. In some cases, you may be asked to provide identification. If our system is not working, we may not be able to authorize a transaction, even though you have sufficient credit available. Also, for security reasons, we may block the use of your Card in certain countries or geographic areas. We will have no liability to you or others if any of these events occur.
4. ATM Access. If you have received a personal identification number (PIN), you may use your Card and PIN to obtain Cash advances at any Automatic Teller Machine (“ATM”) that accepts your Card. Your PIN is confidential and should not be disclosed to anyone. You agree not to write your PIN on your Card, you will not keep your Card and PIN together, and you will not provide your PIN to anyone who is not an authorized user. Except as otherwise provided in this agreement, advances through ATM access will be treated as Cash Advances under this Agreement. Advances at authorized ATM’s are limited by card type. Contact One Nevada Credit Union for more information. The total of all cash advances on your Visa Account and any withdrawals from your other accounts through an ATM in any 24-hour period may be combined for the purpose of this limitation. Owners of ATMs that we do not own may charge fees in addition to any fees disclosed in this Agreement. This is not a fee charged by your Credit Union; however, any such fee will be added to your account. The party charging the fee is required to provide appropriate disclosures to you with regard to any such fees. Please see section 19 for additional Cash Advance fees.
5. Maximum Credit Limit. Your Maximum Credit Limit will appear on the folder in which you receive your Card and on your monthly statement. At our discretion, we may change your credit limit at any time and may provide separate limits for purchases and for cash advances. We will notify you if we do, either by mail or through your monthly billing statement. You may request a change to your credit limit by contacting the Credit Union by telephone or mail. Your continued use of the card will show your agreement to any such increase. If you object to an increase in your credit limit you must notify the Credit Union in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, your credit limit will be reduced to its prior limit; however, you will be responsible for paying any amounts by which you have exceeded the reduced limit. You agree to pay any amount you owe that exceeds your maximum credit balance upon demand. You agree we are not obligated to extend to you credit for any amount that would cause your outstanding balance to exceed your Maximum Credit Limit, or for any amount if your outstanding balance already exceeds your Maximum Credit Limit. Any increase in your Maximum Credit Limit requested by you will require you to make a written application for our approval. In assessing any increase to your credit limit under the provisions in this Section: (a) we may and you authorize us to review your credit history, including consumer credit reports; (b) you authorize us to have this review made by third parties to determine whether you meet the criteria we have set for such an increase; and (c) this process shall not be pre-screening under the Fair Credit Reporting Act or other applicable laws or regulations based on our existing relationship and this Agreement.
Credit balances in excess of $1.00 will be refunded to you by transferring the credit balance to a share account. You agree that the Maximum Credit Limit will at no time exceed the agreed upon amount, and that any credit balance will not be available or increase the Maximum Credit Limit available for new purchases or cash advances during any billing cycle.
Limits for ATM and Over-the-Counter Cash Advances can be determined by contacting the Credit Union’s VISA Department as set forth at the end of this Agreement.
6. General Terms Governing Your Payments. You will be jointly and severally liable and agree to pay the Credit Union for all charges (purchases, cash advances, finance charges, and other charges added to your Account under the terms of this or any other agreements with us) extended to you or anyone else using any Card issued for your account, unless the use of such Card is by a person other than you who does not have actual, implied or apparent authority for such use and from which you receive no benefit. Authority includes, but is not limited to, any authorized users permitting another person to use any Card(s). Further, all users are obligated to us for all charges they make, authorize or permit.
The Credit Union can accept late or partial payments as well as payments that are marked with “paid in full” or other restrictive endorsements, without losing any of our rights under this Agreement. You must pay the Credit Union in US dollars drawn on funds on deposit in the United States. If you make payment with other currencies or from an institution domiciled outside the United States, then your payment will not be credited until the funds have been collected by us in US dollars. The Credit Union will determine the method of applying payments and credits to your account. We may accept checks marked “Payment in Full” or with words of similar effect without losing any right to collect the full balance of your account.
You authorize us to honor any Purchase of Cash Advance you make by telephone or mail on this account. You agree that a signature is not necessary as identification in such cases. We reserve the right to refuse to honor any request for credit, to reduce your credit limit or terminate your account at any time using our sole discretion based on changes in the economy, the Credit Union’s financial condition, your creditworthiness or for any other reason not prohibited by law.
To protect you and us, the Credit Union, in its sole discretion, may place a temporary freeze on all or part of the credit available to you for new purchases or cash advances under this agreement any time the Credit Union receives a large payment ($1000.00 or more) by a method other than cash, certified funds or electronic transfer. In such cases, the Credit Union may freeze your credit line until payment is actually collected by us.
7. Minimum Payment Due. You can pay off your account balance in full each month or you can pay in monthly installments. If you do not pay your balance in full, you agree to pay at least a minimum payment of 3% of your New Balance (rounded to the nearest whole dollar) or $25.00 at the end of each statement period. If the New Balance shown on your periodic statement is $25.00 or less, you agree to pay this amount. Unless the Credit Union takes other action as a result of a default under this Agreement, the Minimum Payment Due will also include any amount that is past due and any amount by which your new balance exceeds your credit limit. Payments and credits will be applied first to pay billed but unpaid finance charges; annual fee (if applicable); late charges; and other fees or charges provided for herein; and next to unpaid cash advances, and then to your unpaid purchase balance. You must pay at least the minimum payment each month, but you may pay more than that amount at any time without a penalty. The sooner you pay your new balance, the less you will have to pay in finance charges. The “Payment Due Date” will be shown on your periodic statement.
Repayment of the Balance for Purchases: Repayment of the balance for purchases is at least 21 days from the close of the billing cycle or as required by law. See your statement for the billing cycle date.
8. Returns and Adjustments. Merchants and others who honor your Card may give credit for returns or adjustments, and they will do so by sending the Credit Union a credit which will be posted to your Account. If your credits and payments exceed what you owe the Credit Union, the amount will be applied against future purchases and cash advances. If the credit balance amount is $1.00 or more, it will be refunded upon your written request.
9. Additional Charges for Transactions in a Foreign Currency and “Cross-Border” Transactions. Currency Conversion Fee: If you effect or authorize a transaction with your access device in a currency other than US Dollars, VISA will convert the charge into a US Dollar amount. The VISA currency conversion procedure includes the use of either a government mandated exchange rate, or a wholesale exchange rate, as applicable. The exchange rate VISA uses will be a rate in effect on the day the transaction is processed. This rate may differ from the rate in effect on the date of the purchase or the date the transaction was posted to your account. A Currency Conversion Fee of up to 2% will be applied to transactions that are converted from foreign currencies to US Dollars. Cross-Border Transaction Fee: In addition, VISA charges us a Cross-Border Assessment up to 2% on each transaction on all cross border transactions regardless of whether there is a currency conversion. For purposes of this Section, “cross-border transaction” shall include both (a) transactions initiated in a foreign country which are subsequently settled in the United States, and (b) transactions initiated in the United States but which are ultimately settled in a country outside of the United States. The Credit Union will assess these fees to you to reimburse it for the fee it is
required to pay for each of your transactions subject to these terms. The Cross-Border transaction fee will be shown separately on your periodic billing statement. The Currency Conversion Fee, if it applies to the transaction, will be included in the transaction amount posted on your statement.
10. Finance Charges on Account. You agree to pay the FINANCE CHARGE on your account.
A FINANCE CHARGE computed on a monthly periodic rate (“MPR”) will begin to accrue for new purchases, if you do not pay the New Balance in full by the payment due date on your monthly statement, a FINANCE CHARGE computed on a monthly periodic rate (“MPR”) will begin to accrue on the transaction date of Cash Advances or Purchases (except as provided above), or the first day of the billing cycle, whichever is later, and will continue to be imposed until you have paid any outstanding balance in full. The Credit Union calculates the FINANCE CHARGE as follows:
a. The FINANCE CHARGE will be figured by applying the monthly periodic rate of your Account, indicated in the following schedule, to the average daily balance of Purchases and Cash Advances. The monthly periodic rate and ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (APR) to be used is determined by the account applied for or approved by us pursuant to the terms of your application.
b. To get the total average daily balance on your Account, we take the beginning balance of your Account each day, add any new Purchases and Cash Advances, unpaid Finance Charges, current late payment fees, any annual fee, if applicable, and other fees, and subtract any payments or credits. This is your daily balance. Then we add up all the daily balances for the billing cycle and divide their total by the number of days in the billing cycle. This gives you the average daily balance. This determines the balance subject to the FINANCE CHARGE.
Minimum Finance Charge: There is a minimum finance charge of $1.00 each month.
The Credit Union, in its sole discretion, may change the Monthly Periodic Rate and ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE from time to time. Any change in the Finance Charge shall apply both to the outstanding balance and any new Purchase(s) and Cash Advances. If the current effective rates are different, they are disclosed on an enclosed/attached insert.
11. Promotional Finance Charges. From time to time and in our sole discretion we may offer a special rate applicable to certain transactions such as particular purchases (as defined by us), balance transfers, cash advances or purchases made by using Convenience Checks. Applicable terms and conditions will be disclosed at the time any such promotion is offered and are incorporated into this Agreement by reference. The promotional rate will apply only to the transactions and for the period of time set forth in any such offer from us. Existing balances and new purchases or advances not expressly subject to any such promotion will remain governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In addition, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will govern your obligations regarding any unpaid balance or transactions that are made subject to any such promotional offer, that are not fully paid within the time period set forth in such promotional offer.
12. Interest Rate Adjustment (Variable Rate). The ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE (APR) is based on the Prime Rate (which is the highest rate of interest identified as the “Prime Rate” in the “Money Rates” column of the Wall Street Journal) plus a margin set by the Credit Union. The Credit Union will review your Account from time to time and may adjust your Periodic Rate and APR either up or down, based upon changes in your credit profile. Your APR will be equal to the Prime Rate plus a margin of +5%, +8%, +11%, or +14% depending on your credit score at the time of your most recent review. Refer to your VISA account opening information, your current statement, or contact us for your exact APR and Periodic Rate. The APR can also increase or decrease following a change in the Prime Rate. Whenever the Prime Rate changes, your new APR will take effect within 15 business days of the Prime Rate change.
13. Monthly Statement. We will send you a monthly billing statement whenever there is activity on your account. Your monthly statement will show an itemized list of current charges (Purchases and Cash Advances) and Convenience Check transactions to your account, your new balance, any Finance Charges, the minimum payment due, and the payment due date. In addition, it will show your current credit limit, payments, and credits, a summary showing your Purchases and Cash Advances, the merchant, electronic terminal or financial institution at which transactions were made, as well as other information concerning your account. Sales, Cash Advances, credit or other slips cannot be returned with any statement. You will retain a copy of such transactions furnished at the time of the transactions in order to verify your monthly statement. E-Statements: if provided electronically, statements will be (1) e-mailed to you as an attachment; or (2) you will be sent a notice via e-mail that will direct you to a site we maintain or cause to be maintained where you may access, review, print and otherwise copy/download your periodic statements using procedures that we authorize. E-mails from us will be sent to the e-mail address provided by any owner.
14. Additional Benefits/Card Enhancements. The Credit Union may from time to time offer additional services to your account, such as travel accident insurance or rebates at no additional cost to you. You understand that the Credit Union is not obligated to continue or to offer such services and may withdraw or change them at any time. If these benefits are withdrawn prior to any accrued use by you, the Credit Union will have no obligation to provide the benefit or enhancement, or any other compensation or consideration.
15. Merchant Disputes. The Credit Union is not responsible for the refusal of any merchant or financial institution to honor your Card except as set forth in the Special Rules for Credit Card Purchases set forth at the end of this Agreement.
16. Skip Payment Options. At our option, we may offer you the opportunity to not make (“skip”) a minimum payment during certain designated billing cycles (“skip payment period”). If you do not make your minimum payments as provided in this Agreement, during such designated billing cycles, you understand that we will continue to apply finance charges to your account. Beginning with the billing cycle following an allowed skip payment period, all other provisions of this Agreement will apply. We have no obligation to accept your application for any skip payment period offered, and you authorize us to investigate your creditworthiness including obtaining consumer credit reports. We may charge you an application processing fee of up to $50.00 for each skip payment period that we may offer to cover our costs of investigating your qualifications for this extension including but not limited to the costs associated with researching your creditworthiness.
17. Late Payment Fee. The Credit Union will charge your account a late payment fee of $27.00 for each billing period in which your minimum payment is not received by your due date. This fee may be added to your account balance or collected from you on demand.
18. Returned Payment or Insufficient Funds Fee. The Credit Union will charge your account a $25.00 fee if your payment by any method, including check, electronic transfer, online banking transaction or otherwise, is not honored, collected by us, or if we must return it to you because it cannot be processed for any reason. This fee may be added to your account balance or collected from you on demand.
19. Cash Advance Fee. The Credit Union will charge your account a fee of 2% of the cash advance amount (minimum $5.00) for each cash advance made either, in person, via phone or through any ATM.
20. Charge for Research and Card Replacement. If you ask for a copy of any document, such as a sales slip or billing statement, a charge of $25.00 per hour may be charged for the time it takes to research and locate the document(s). However, no charge will be imposed in connection with any actual or asserted billing error. We may charge a $5.00 fee for all card replacements. Please refer to the Fee Schedule on our website.
21. Card Recovery Fee. A card recovery fee up to $75.00 may be charged if you use the card(s) after we mail you notice of termination of this Agreement.
22. Your Responsibility and Liability for Unauthorized Use and Lost or Stolen Cards. If your Card is lost or stolen, or if you are afraid someone used or may use it without your permission, you must notify the Credit Union at once by calling 1-800-449-7729. If notice is given orally, you will promptly confirm it in writing. The Credit Union may require you to provide us with certain information in writing to help us investigate any unauthorized use. Further, you agree to cooperate and assist us or any government or law enforcement agent or agency in investigating, collecting or pursuing any other rights (civil and criminal) relating to any unauthorized use. In this regard, you agree to file an appropriate police report when asked to do so. Do not use the Card or the Convenience Checks after you have notified the Credit Union, even if you find them or have them returned to you.
You are liable for all transactions that you authorize. No Liability: You will have no liability for unauthorized use of your Card, or other Access Devices for non-ATM transactions made over the VISA Network if the following conditions are met: (1) You have not been grossly negligent; and (2) You have not committed, participated in or conspired to commit any fraudulent act or scheme involving the use of your VISA credit card account. Limited Liability: For transaction or other networks or ATM transactions, you may be liable for unauthorized transactions using your Card, or other Access Devises that occur before we are notified. However, your liability for unauthorized use on networks other than VISA will not exceed $50.00. In any case, you will not be liable for any unauthorized use after notifying us of the loss, theft or unauthorized use of your Card or other Access Devices.
23. Default. You will be in default if: (a) you fail to pay the Minimum Payment Due by the Payment Due Date; (b) the Credit Union, in its sole discretion has doubts about your ability to repay; (c) your ability to repay is materially reduced by a change in your employment, by an increase in your obligations, by bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings involving you, by your death, or (for community property state residents only) by a change in marital status or domicile; (d) you exceed your credit limit without our permission; (e) you have made a false or misleading statement to us in your application or otherwise; (f) you are in default under any other agreement with us; (g) if you use or authorize the use of any Card(s) to make or facilitate any illegal transaction; or (h) you fail to perform any of your other obligations under the terms of this Agreement as it may be amended from time to time. Upon default we may close your Account to future purchases and advances and, to the extent not prohibited by Governing Law, demand immediate payment of your entire Account balance after giving you any notice and opportunity to cure the default if required by applicable law. The Credit Union’s sole obligation hereunder with regard to determining and declaring an event of default is the exercise of “good faith”, based on its subjective understanding of applicable facts.
24. Collection Costs. You agree to pay all costs incurred by the Credit Union in collecting any amounts you owe or in enforcing or protecting the Credit Union’s rights under this Agreement, including attorneys’ fees and also those costs, expenses and post-judgment proceedings, except as limited or prohibited by applicable law.
25. Updating and Disclosing Financial Information. We may report your performance under this Agreement to credit reporting agencies and secure follow-up credit reports on you for any legitimate business reason, including if you fail to make your minimum payments on time. We can reinvestigate and reevaluate any information you provide on your Visa Application at any time, and in the course of doing so, we may ask you to provide additional information, request credit bureau reports and/or otherwise verify your current credit standing.
Access to Account Information. You agree that all borrowers and authorized users will have access to information regarding transactions on your account, including but not limited to information regarding purchases and cash advances, account balances, account history, payments and other information relating to or arising with regard to this account or any transaction.
26. Correcting the Credit Union’s Credit Report. If you think the Credit Union reported erroneous information about you to a credit reporting agency, call the Credit Union at the telephone number listed on your monthly billing statement. The Credit Union will promptly investigate the matter. The Credit Union will contact each credit reporting agency whose records may reflect an error. The Credit Union will require them to correct your report if its investigation decides that you were correct. If the Credit Union disagrees with you after the investigation, the Credit Union will advise you, in writing or by phone, and instruct you how to submit to those agencies a statement of your position that will become a part of your credit record with them. The instructions will include the name, address, and phone number of each such agency, along with other pertinent information.
27. Closing Your Account. Any individual cardholder without the consent of the other cardholders may close your Account at any time by notifying us in writing as indicated in this Agreement. The Credit Union may close your account or suspend your Card privileges at any time without prior notice. The Credit Union may also reissue a different Card at any time. You must return the Card to the Credit Union upon request. You agree that the Card remains the property of the Credit Union. Each Card we issue will have an expiration date. Upon expiration of your Card your account will automatically terminate or the Credit Union, in its sole discretion, may extend your Agreement and issue a new card with a new expiration date. If your account is closed, expires or your credit privileges are terminated or suspended, you will remain responsible for paying all amounts you owe us according to the terms of this Agreement. Without limited the foregoing, the Credit Union has

28. Changing This Agreement. The Credit Union may change the terms of this Agreement, including the Annual Percentage Rate, at any time. Except where limited by applicable law, the new terms, including but not limited to, increasing the finance charge or the way the Credit Union calculates finance charges, late charges, and the minimum payment due, will apply both to new purchases and cash advances and to the existing outstanding balance of your account as of the day of the change. The Credit Union may amend existing terms, remove terms or add new terms and will notify you of any increased charge or change by writing to you at the most recent address shown for you on the Credit Union’s records. In some circumstances you may have the right to opt-out of the changes.
29. Delay in Enforcement/Waivers. The Credit Union may delay or waive enforcement of any of the provisions of this Agreement, including any agreement to make timely payments, without losing its right to enforce the same provision later or any other provisions of this Agreement.

You also waive any applicable statute of limitations to the full extent permitted by law and any right you may otherwise have to require the Credit Union to proceed against any person before suing you to collect.

If your designated account does not contain sufficient funds, no automatic deduction will be made; we will bill you for the Minimum Payment Due; and your account may be charged a $25.00 insufficient funds fee, and you will be responsible for making the payment by some other means.
34. Illegal Transactions. You warrant and agree that your Credit Card, other access device or related account will not be used to make or facilitate any illegal transaction(s) as determined by applicable law; and that any such use, including any such authorized use, will constitute an event of default under this Agreement. Certain federal and/or state laws or Card Service Providers’ Rules may limit or prohibit certain transactions such as (but not limited to) those coded as possible gambling transactions. The Credit Union may decline to accept, process or pay for any transaction that we believe to be illegal or unenforceable (regarding your obligation to pay us or otherwise) under applicable law; or which is otherwise limited or prohibited, including but not limited to any transaction involving or relating to any gambling activity. Such prohibition or limits may affect some otherwise proper or allowable transactions such as charges incurred at a hotel-casino. You understand and agree that such limitations/prohibitions are not within the Credit Union’s control and that the Credit Union will not have any liability, responsibility or culpability whatsoever for any such use by you or any authorized user(s); or declining to accept, process, or pay any such transaction. You further agree to indemnify and hold the Credit Union harmless from any suits, liability, damages or adverse action of any kind that results directly or indirectly from any such use of your account and/or access devices.

The Credit Union reserves the right to cancel this program at any time by providing you with thirty (30) days’ written notice. The Credit Union also reserves the right and sole discretion to cancel individual participation in the program based on misuse of the program as determined by the Credit Union. Program benefits will only be awarded to members in good standing (loan payments current, balances within established limits, no overdrawn accounts.)
By using the credit card, you affirm that as a condition of receiving a credit card from One Nevada Credit Union, you agree to give us a security interest in all present or future shares held in One Nevada Credit Union with the exception of any shares held in an IRA or other deferred compensation accounts.
36. Convenience Checks. At our option, we may offer you Convenience Checks for this account. We are under no obligation to honor your convenience checks if: (1) by paying a convenience check, you would exceed your credit limit; (2) your card(s) or convenience checks have been reported lost or stolen; (3) your account has not been activated, has been cancelled or has expired. If a postdated convenience check is paid and, as a result, any other convenience check is returned unpaid, we are not responsible for any resulting loss or liability.
37. Share Secured Visa. In order to receive and maintain a Share Secured Visa Account, you agree to give us a specific pledge of shares which will equal your credit limit. In the event that you default on your Share Secured Visa Account, we may apply these shares toward the repayment of any amount owed on such an account. You may cancel your Share Secured Visa Account at any time by paying any amounts owed on such account (outstanding balance plus accumulated Finance Charges and all other fees and charges). To be certain that your entire balance and all advances are paid, any shares pledged may not be available to you for 30 days after you have cancelled, and any outstanding balance is paid in full.
38. Governing Law. This Agreement is governed by the Credit Union’s Bylaws, federal laws and regulations, the laws and regulations of the state of Nevada, and the state in which you reside, as applicable, and clearing house rules, as amended from time to time. Any disputes regarding this Agreement shall be subject to Binding Arbitration conducted in the county where the Credit Union is located except for equitable relief, which shall be in the jurisdiction of the courts in the county where the Credit Union is located, unless otherwise required by law. In the event a court holds any paragraph of this Agreement or any portion thereof to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the other paragraphs and portions of this Agreement shall be valid or enforceable and will continue in full force.
39. Arbitration and Waiver of Class Action. You and we agree that we shall attempt to informally settle any and all disputes arising out of, affecting, or relating to your accounts, or the products or services the credit union has provided, will provide or has offered to provide to you, and/or any aspect of your relationship with the credit union (hereafter referred to as the “Claims”). Attempts to informally settle the Claims shall include a written exchange of information describing the Claims, the basis for the Claims, and the relief sought, and then an in-person meeting (or a meeting by Zoom or similar electronic means) to discuss potential resolution of the Claims. If the Claims cannot be resolved informally, then you agree that any and all Claims that are threatened, made, filed or initiated after the Effective Date (defined below) of this Arbitration Provision, even if the Claims arise out of, affect or relate to conduct that occurred prior to the Effective Date, shall, at the election of either you or us, be resolved by binding arbitration administered by National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) in accordance with its applicable rules and procedures for consumer disputes (“Rules”), whether such Claims are in contract, tort, statute, or otherwise. The Rules can be obtained on the NAM website free of charge at www.namadr.com; or, a copy of the Rules can be obtained at any credit union branch upon request. Either you or we may elect to resolve a particular Claim through arbitration, even if one of us has already initiated litigation in court related to the Claim, by: (a) making written demand for arbitration upon the other party, (b) initiating arbitration against the other party, or (c) filing a motion to compel arbitration in court. AS A RESULT, IF EITHER YOU OR WE ELECT TO RESOLVE A PARTICULAR CLAIM THROUGH ARBITRATION, YOU WILL GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT TO ASSERT OR DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS (EXCEPT FOR CLAIMS BROUGHT INDIVIDUALLY WITHIN SMALL CLAIMS COURT JURISDICTION, SO LONG AS THE CLAIM REMAINS IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT). This Arbitration Provision shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act set forth in Title 9 of the U.S. Code to the fullest extent possible, notwithstanding any state law to the contrary, regardless of the origin or nature of the Claims at issue. This Arbitration Provision does not prevent you from submitting any issue relating to your accounts for review or consideration by a federal, state, or local governmental agency or entity, nor does it prevent such agency or entity from seeking relief on your behalf.
This Arbitration Agreement shall not apply to: (1) actions that are initiated in or transferred to small claims court or a comparable court of limited monetary jurisdiction, so long as they are prosecuted individually; (2) actions initiated by or against “covered borrowers” under the Military Lending Act; (3) claims involving residential mortgage secured loans covered by Regulation Z; and (4) any other claims where arbitration is prohibited by law.
Selection of Arbitrator. The Claims shall be resolved by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with the Rules, and must have experience in the types of transactions at issue in the Claims. In the event of a conflict between the Rules and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision, shall supersede the conflicting Rules only to the extent of the inconsistency. If NAM is unavailable to resolve the Claims, and if you and we do not agree on a substitute arbitration forum, then you can select the arbitration forum for the resolution of the Claims.
Effective Date. This Arbitration Provision is effective upon the day you opened your account or when it was provided to you in connection with the opening of your account, whichever is earlier.
Arbitration Proceedings. The arbitration shall be conducted within 50 miles of your residence at the time the arbitration is commenced. Any claims and defenses that can be asserted in court can be asserted in the arbitration. The Arbitrator shall be entitled to award the same remedies that a court can award, including injunctive relief. The Arbitrator shall follow the law and shall not be entitled to make errors of law. Discovery shall be available for non-privileged information to the fullest extent permitted under the Rules. The Arbitrator’s award can be entered as a judgment in court. Except as provided in applicable statutes, the arbitrator’s award is not subject to review by the court and it cannot be appealed; provided, however, that either party may appeal to any Court with jurisdiction to the extent the arbitrator makes an error of law. One Nevada shall pay for any filing, administration, and arbitrator fees imposed on you by NAM (or the applicable arbitration forum), except if the action to recover on the Claims is initiated by you, in which case you shall be responsible for the first $200 of fees in accordance with the Rules. You will be responsible for your own attorneys’ fees. The Arbitrator shall be entitled to award attorneys’ fees and costs to the prevailing party in the arbitration if permitted by applicable law or the Rules. Nothing contained in this Arbitration Provision shall prevent either you or One Nevada from applying to any court of competent jurisdiction for emergency provisional relief, such as a temporary restraining order, a tem-
