Balance Computation Method: Average Daily Balance (including new purchases)
The “Daily Balance” of a Credit Plan is determined by taking the opening balance of the Credit Plan for that day, and adding 1) any new purchase made on the 
Credit Plan that day, 2) the previous day’s Interest Charges, 3) any credit insurance premiums or debt cancellation fees (if applicable) incurred on that day and 4) 
any late fees, over the credit limit fees, returned payment fees or other fees incurred on that day and subtracting any payments or credit applied to the Credit Plan 
that day. If your Account is subject to a grace period during the billing cycle, payments made during that cycle will be subtracted from all Daily Balances in the 
current cycle. 

Required Insurance, Debt Cancellation or Debt Suspension Coverage: None

Disclosure of Rates: The Daily Periodic Rate which is used to determine your Interest Charges and the corresponding Annual Percentage Rate, will be a variable 
rate which may change monthly. The Daily Periodic Rate will be one-three hundred sixty fifth of the sum of the U.S. prime rate published in Money Rates table of 
The Wall Street Journal that is in effect on the last day of the month. (“Prime Rate”), plus a “Spread” of 20.74 percentage points for the Standard Rate. Any changes 
in the Prime Rate will take effect on the first day of your billing cycle beginning in the next month.

purchases, etc.); and

APR for that transaction.

ACCOUNT FEES AND OTHER INTEREST RATES

Once you have fully paid for any good, we will release our purchase 
money security interest in that good.

ABOUT YOUR APRs

We do not take a security interest if you:
•  live in NY and the original purchase price of the good was less than 

$200 or

•  live in MD and the original purchase price of the good was less 

than $700.

If we take back any good, we may charge you our costs and require 
you to make the good available at a convenient place of our choice as 
allowed by law. This may include our cost to:
• repair the good; and/or
• store the good; and/or
• other costs allowed by law.

Your APRs are shown on page 1. 

A Daily Periodic Rate is used to determine your Interest Charges in 
any billing cycle. To determine this rate, we divide your APR by 365; 
then round this number up to the next hundred thousandth of a 
percentage point. 

PROMOTIONAL CREDIT PLANS 
From time to time, we may offer one or more Promotional Credit 
Plans. These may be offered to you:
• prior to your purchase; and/or
• at the time of your purchase.

NeimanMarcusBergdorfGoodman_BR238330_Q2_2013.indd   3

7/23/13   9:37 AM

 
 
 
Any of these Plans may be offered at any time and are conditioned on 
your timely payment of at least the Minimum Payment Due for each 
billing statement:

Waived Interest Charge Credit Plan

With this Plan there are no Interest Charges on your purchase for a 
specified period. 

HOW WE APPLY PAYMENTS 
The amount of your payment that is equal to the Minimum Payment 
Due is:
• applied as we determine within legal guidelines; and
• usually applied to the minimum due on each credit plan.

Any payment amount over the Minimum Payment Due is applied to 
higher APR balances before lower ones.

If you make more than one purchase on your card, these balances may 
be treated differently. 

MANAGING YOUR ACCOUNT

Certain rules apply to the allocation of payments and interest charges 
on your promotional purchase if you make more than one purchase on 
your Card. Call 1-888-367-4310 or review the HOW WE APPLY PAYMENTS 
section of this Agreement for information.

OTHER USERS 
You may permit others to use your Card or Account Number.

You are responsible for all charges made by permitted users.

INTEREST CHARGES

HOW INTEREST CHARGES ARE CALCULATED 
Each billing statement shows the Interest Charges, which are 
calculated separately for each:
• Promotional Credit Plan with a unique due date or unique terms; 
• Regular Credit Plan

The total interest charge for the billing cycle is the sum of the interest 
charge for each plan subject to the minimum interest charge shown in 
the chart.

The interest charge is the total of:
•  the applicable Daily Periodic Rate for the Plan times the Daily Balance 

for the plan for each day in the cycle.

HOW DAILY BALANCE IS DETERMINED 
To determine your Daily Balance, we:
• take the opening balance for each Plan for that day; then
• add the following that were incurred on that day:
  a) any new purchases
  b) any previous day’s periodic Interest Charges
  c)  any fees and charges, including any credit insurance premiums or 

debt cancellation fees, if these apply; then

• subtract any payments and/or credits.

We also make any needed adjustments. For example:
•  If a transaction posts after but occurs before the start of a billing cycle, 
we may adjust the amount above to include this transaction. It will be 
included as of the first day of the billing cycle in which it posts.

•  If your Account is subject to a grace period during the billing cycle, 
your payments will be subtracted from all Daily Balances in the 
current billing cycle.

•  If a transaction for a returned payment or a dispute resolved in our 
favor posts after the beginning of the billing cycle, we will make 
this adjustment: 

  –  the applicable Daily Balance(s) and any related Interest Charges will 
be adjusted to include the transaction amount as of the date of 
the original payment or transaction.

To calculate your Average Daily Balance, we:
• add the Daily Balances for each day of the billing cycle; then
• divide this total by the number of days in the billing cycle.

HOW TO AVOID PAYING INTEREST ON PURCHASES 
The number of days until your Payment Due Date after the close 
of each billing cycle is indicated in the Interest Rates and Interest 
Charges section of this Agreement. We will not charge you Interest on 
purchases if you pay your entire balance by the due date each month.

Interest charges begin on the transaction date and continue to accrue 
until paid in full except as noted below:

EXCEPTIONS 
1.  For New Purchases and balances: No interest is charged in 
a billing cycle on a Regular Credit Plan if the combined Previous 
Balance of those Plans at the beginning of the cycle is:

a) zero; or
b) a credit balance (e.g., less than zero); or
c)  paid in full before the Payment Due Date that falls during the cycle;
2.  For Waived Interest Charge Credit Plans: No interest is charged 

for the promotional period.

If you wish to revoke another person’s permission to use your Account, 
you must notify us. We may close your Account and issue a new Card 
with a different Account number.

UPDATING YOUR RECORDS 
You agree:
a)  to give us prompt advance notice of any change in your name, 

mailing address, phone number, or employer; 

b)  to promptly give us accurate financial information about you if we 

ask for it; and

c)  the Department of Motor Vehicles may release your home address

You must notify us of any potential errors in writing. You may call 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:
•  We cannot try to collect the amount in question, or report you as 

delinquent on that amount.

•  The charge in question may remain on your statement, and we may 

continue to charge you interest on that amount.

•  While you do not have to pay the amount in question, you are 

responsible for the remainder of your balance.

•  We can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit.

After we finish our investigation, one of two things will happen:
•  If we made a mistake: You will not have to pay the amount in 
question or any interest or other fees related to that amount.

•  If we do not believe there was a mistake: You will have to pay the 

amount in question, along with applicable interest and fees. We will 
send you a statement of the amount you owe and the date payment 
is due. We may then report you as delinquent if you do not pay the 
amount we think you owe.

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.
