hospitalization, unpaid leave of absence, major life event, or disability and at least three months
prior to requesting the benefit activation due to unemployment or death (except in the event of
accidental death which is covered during the first 90 days). Please refer to the
SafeLine Account Protection Plus Plan Contract
regarding eligibility requirements, conditions, and coverage exclusions.
When or how do I activate my SafeLine® benefits?
The best place for an overview of SafeLine Plus benefits is the SafeLine Account Protection Plus Plan
Contract which would have been mailed or emailed to you when you

View the Contract
online or speak to a Customer Service Representative at 1-800-208-
2500. You can initiate a benefit claim by printing out the
Benefit Activation
Application
and returning a completed form, along with any required documentation, to us by e-mail at
safelineservice@fingerhut.com, by fax at (320)
237-9160, or by regular mail at Customer Service, SafeLine Account
Protection Plus Plan, 6250 Ridgewood Rd, St. Cloud, MN 56303. Upon receipt of your application, a
customer service representative will review the claim and follow up
with you regarding your benefit status.
How does SafeLine® "cover my
current month's minimum payment" on my account??
The term "cover your current month's minimum payment" applies when your benefits are activated by a
qualifying event and approved, like involuntary unemployment or having a disabling accident. This
means that WebBank will credit the current month's minimum monthly payment of principal and interest
due (referred to in the
SafeLine Terms &
Conditions as "Monthly Benefit Payment"), which does not include any past due or delinquent
payments, on your Credit Account during the benefit activation period. You will not be required to
make a payment on your Credit Account while your benefits are active. In addition, late, over limit,
and SafeLine Account Protection Plus fees will not be assessed during a billing period in which
benefits are active. Your account will be suspended, which means you will be unable to use your
Credit Account while benefits are activated. Interest will continue to accrue on your outstanding
balance, and during those billing periods no reports reflecting a deteriorating credit status with us
will be sent to any credit reporting agency.
How do I initiate a SafeLine® claim?
The best place for an overview of SafeLine Plus benefits is the SafeLine Account Protection Plus Plan
Contract which would have been mailed or emailed to you when you

What are deferred payment offers?
Deferral Periods: From time to time we may offer you periods when you are not
required to make payments on your purchase;
we call these "Deferral Periods"; Special rules apply to Deferral Periods: The date, amount and
description of each purchase is identified on your Statement for the
period when
you make the purchase; each Statement contains a summary of all deferred purchases, including the
unpaid principal balances, any accrued or assessed interest charges
and the
dates until which payments are deferred. The deferral plan offered to you is made at the sole
discretion of Fingerhut on behalf of WebBank and cannot be changed by
customer
request.
A. No Payments Option: Monthly payments on the deferred purchase are not required
during the Deferral Period. Interest will be assessed at the monthly
periodic rate on your deferred purchase from the date of purchase. Interest assessed during the
Deferral Period will be added to your deferred balance, regardless if
you pay off
your deferred balance before the expiration of the Deferral Period. The amount of your deferred
purchase(s) is/are not considered when we calculate your minimum
monthly payment.
We do consider your deferred purchase(s) for purposes of determining your available credit.
B. No Payments and No Interest Option: Monthly payments on the deferred purchase are
not required during the Deferral Period, but will be required when
the Defferal Period ends. If you pay the entire deferred
purchase in full on or before the last day of the Deferral Period, you pay no interest in
connection with your deferred purchase. However, interest on the deferred
purchase will be charged to your account at the monthly periodic rate in effect each month from the
date of purchase if the deferred purchase balance is not paid in
full by the last day of the Deferral Period. As of and after the expiration of the Deferral Period,
the monthly periodic rate in effect according to your account
terms will apply to the remaining unpaid balance of your deferred purchase. During the Deferral
Period, the amount of your deferred purchase(s) is/are not considered
when we calculate your
minimum monthly payment. We do consider your deferred purchase(s) for purposes of determining your
available credit.
C. No Interest Option: You must make minimum monthly payments on the deferred purchase
during the Deferral Period. If you pay the entire deferred
purchase in
full on or before the last day of the Deferral Period, you pay no interest in connection with your
deferred purchase. However, interest on the deferred purchase will
be charged
to your account at the monthly periodic rate in effect each month from the date of purchase if the
deferred purchase balance is not paid in full by the last day of
the Deferral Period. As of and after the expiration of the
Deferral Period, the monthly periodic rate in effect according to your account terms will apply to
the remaining unpaid balance of your deferred purchase. During the
Deferral Period, we include your deferred
purchase(s) when we calculate your minimum monthly payment and for purposes of determining your
available credit.

your
Fingerhut bill. Please
call them if you have any questions about their programs.
IMPORTANT SALES TAX INFORMATION
This is legal information about sales tax. We do not collect sales or use taxes in all states. For
states imposing sales of use taxes, your purchase is subject to tax
unless it
is specifically exempt from taxation. Your purchase is not exempt merely because it was made over the
Internet. Many states require purchasers to file a sales/use tax
return at
the end of the year reporting all of the taxable purchases that were not taxed and to pay tax on
those purchases. It is possible that you may be responsible for the
payment of
state sales/use taxes on your Fingerhut orders, even though we are not required to collect sales/use
taxes from you. In these situations, our listing of $0.00 tax on
the
check-out screen does not mean that you are not responsible for the payment of taxes on the order.
Rather, it means that we are not collecting sales/use tax at the
time of order
on your behalf. The responsibility to pay sales/use taxes is your responsibility as the purchaser.
Details on how to file these returns may be found at the websites of
your
state's taxing authority.
INDIVIDUAL STATE SALES/USE TAX INFORMATION
If you live in
Colorado, please read this information about sales
tax. For Colorado purchasers, we may be required by Colorado law to
provide
you with an end-of-year summary of Colorado purchases in order to assist you in filing your tax
returns. We may also be required by law to provide the Colorado
Department of
Revenue with a report of the total amount of all of your Colorado purchases at the end of the year.
Additional information on your Colorado tax reporting obligations
are
available on the Colorado Department of Revenue website at
http://www.colorado.gov.
If you live in Oklahoma, please read this information about sales tax. For
Oklahoma purchasers, use taxes may be reported and paid on the
Oklahoma
individual income tax return [Form 511] or by filing a consumer use tax return
[Form 21-1]. The referenced forms and corresponding instructions are available
on the Oklahoma Tax Commission website at
http://www.tax.ok.gov
What is Dependable Shipping?
Our Dependable Shipping program means we send out most orders within 10 business days. And some items
even ship in as few as three days after you order! Monogramming
and
engraving might add a little extra time. Some large items, like furniture or products coming right
from the manufacturer might take longer to ship. They also might
have extra
shipping and handling charges.
What is your Extended Home Trial Period for the Holidays?
The Extended Home Trial Period is for all orders made between October 1st and December 24th. This
program lets you exchange or refund purchases until January 31st. To

please check the manufacturer's warranty. If there isn't a warranty, please

to talk about a return. If we accept a return after the Home Trial Period,
the price may be prorated. This means you get a refund based on how long you
have had the item and the condition it is in. Shipping and handling charges
aren't refundable.

What is the difference between Standard and Express shipping?
Standard shipping means we send your order from our warehouse within 10 business days, often less
than five! Express shipping means we ship your order from our
warehouse within
5 business days or less. There is an extra fee of $9.95 per item for Express shipping and some
restrictions apply. Some items are too large or too heavy for
Express
shipping. Items shipped directly from the manufacturer do not have Express shipping. Express shipping
is only available for the 48 contiguous states.
Can all Fingerhut products be shipped with Express shipping?
Most products can, and we can Express ship to most addresses. We can't Express ship back orders,
items that are too heavy or too big, or items shipped to you from the
manufacturer. Express shipping is allowed within the 48 contiguous states, but not APO and FPO. If
you're trying to Express ship a product that is not allowed, we'll
let you
know during checkout.
How fast is Standard shipping? What about Express shipping?
Standard shipping means we send your order from our warehouse within 10 business days, often less
than five! Express shipping means we ship your order from our
warehouse within
5 business days or less. There is an extra fee of $9.95 per item for Express shipping and some
restrictions apply.
What does drop ship mean?
Products shipped to you from the manufacturer are known as "drop ship" items. When you order one of
these items, we'll let you know the expected shipping date.
Since we
don't ship these items, we can't guarantee the shipping time. Drop ship items can't be sent using
Express shipping.
What if I live outside the 48 states?
You can place an order at any time! For orders shipped
to an address outside the 48 contiguous states we add a $12.99 surcharge per
order to help cover shipping costs. This includes AK, HI, US territories and
APO/FOP addresses.
Do you ship to APO and FPO addresses?
We are happy to ship to any United States Post Office address. This includes APO and FPO addresses.
We just can't offer Express shipping to APO and FPO at this time.
What is Curbside Delivery?
Curbside delivery is offered for heavier items. You pay shipping and handling charges for delivery to
the curb in front of your address. If you want the item carried
into your
house, please arrange it with the company delivering the item. Most of the time, the company will
charge extra for this service.
Does Fingerhut provide any installation services?
We don't offer services like installing telephones, plumbing, etc. For installation, please call a
local service or contact the manufacturer.
Why can't I ship my order to an address besides my billing address?
For your first order with us, Fingerhut customers who want to pay using Fingerhut Credit, the
billing and shipping address need to match. This is for your
safety and
security. If you want to use your Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express, we can ship your
order to another address, if you'd like. Just let us know.

really
important, especially if you share a computer or use one in a public place, like a library.
What is your Privacy Policy?
Full disclosure of our Privacy Policy is available
here

What does McAfee Secure mean?
When you see this on our website, it means that it meets the highest security scanning standards of

How do I request a catalog?
To have a catalog mailed to you, you can click here to
Request a Catalog
and shop with Fingerhut Credit (if approved), a major credit card, debit card,
money order or check.
Can I look at an online catalog?
Currently we do not offer an online catalog. You can sign up to receive an
email when a new catalog is available by selecting the
Request A Catalog link.
Can I order online with my catalog?
Yes! You can always order from any Fingerhut catalog. Type in your catalog number and the Item # into
the box on the top of any page. Enter the catalog number from
the back of
your catalog. When you use your catalog number, you get all the promotions offered on the catalog,
like free gifts, pre-approved credit, deferred payments, and more.
These
offers are only for the person named on the catalog.
How do I find my catalog number?
Your catalog number is on the back cover of the catalog (below in yellow) and on the Order Blank in
the middle of the catalog.
Where is my customer number on the catalog?
Your customer number is on the back cover of the catalog (below in yellow) and on the Order Blank in
the middle of the catalog.
When will I get my next catalog?
We mail catalogs to customers all year long. If you have been ordering from us and your account is
current, you'll get catalogs from us!
Can I order from friend's catalog?
Sure! You can order from any catalog. Use the catalog number on the back to order online or over the
phone, or use the order blank in the middle of the catalog.
However, any
pre-approved credit and deferred payments are only for the person named on the catalog.
Are the prices in the catalog good forever?
Not forever, but for 90 days. In the rare event of a printing error, Fingerhut has the right to
correct and change price.
Do you have special offers for customers with good payment records?
Yes. By keeping your balance low and making your payments on time, you could get special offers for
deferred (buy now, pay later) billing and more! Plus, you'll be
building your
buying power with us, and could even get higher credit limits.
How do I keep getting catalogs?
By shopping with us and making your payments on time, you'll keep getting our great catalogs with
exciting new items and great deals!
Can I use my Fingerhut Credit Account to buy other things?
Yes! As long as your payments are up-to-date, you can
buy flowers, magazine subscriptions, and even insurance with your Fingerhut
Credit Account on our website! We'll add these items right to your Fingerhut
Credit Account. Our partner offers can be found on the right column of the
My Account page!
What happens when I pay my bills late?
Most companies that give credit add the interest daily, so the longer you wait to pay, the more you
pay. Plus, late payments can lead to late fees, higher interest, as
well as
poor reporting on your credit history. For these reasons, late payments can make a huge difference to
your credit report.
Will a bad payment history hurt me in the future?
Yes, it will really impact you in bad ways. By not managing your credit, you'll most likely get poor
terms (higher APR's, higher minimum monthly payments, lower credit
limit
amounts, etc) and you'll end up paying more than other people with better credit. This is because the
lender is taking on a greater risk due to your bad payment
history.
Who's going to care if I don't pay my WebBank/Fingerhut Account?
First off, you should and we do! Then, anyone who might offer you a job or loan you money for a car,
student loan, mortgage, or decide what you'll pay for rent and
insurance.
They all look at your credit.
Consider these facts. Late payments are reported to the credit bureau each month; "charged off
accounts" stay on your credit bureau report for 7 years; and bankruptcy
stays on
your report for 10 years! So remember to always make your payments on time to avoid negative
information on your credit record.
What is a Credit Score?
A credit score is a math score that looks at many types of information in your credit file. A credit
score is used by a lender to help decide whether you should get a
certain
credit card, loan, or service. Most credit scores help figure out how risky it is to lend a person
money or give them a service - or, how likely the person will make
payments on
time. Usually, the higher the score, the less risk.

What is debt-to-income ratio?
A debt-to-income ratio is one way to measure how financially stable you are. You divide monthly
minimum debt payments (excluding mortgage or rent payments) by monthly
gross
income. Your monthly gross income is what you make before taxes and anything else are taken out.
How do I figure out my debt-to-income ratio?
For example, if you had gross monthly income of $2,000 and are making minimum payments of $725 on
loans and credit cards, you'll have a debt-to-income ratio of 36
percent ($725
/ $2000 = .36).
Your Monthly Gross Income is your income before taxes or other deductions. Here are some tips to help
you remember all your income:
- If you're paid every other week, take one paycheck times 2.17 to figure out monthly income
- Regular income from spousal support and child support can be counted as income
- Include averages of bonuses, commissions and tips
- Don't forget dividends and interest earnings
- Include other income such as government benefits and/or assistance
Your TOTAL monthly debt payments include your current minimum payments on all your credit cards and
loans (include mortgage or rent). When adding this number include:
- Car payments
- Installment loan payments on furniture and appliances
- Bank and credit union loans
- Student loans
- Other loans and credit lines
- All credit cards
- Medical care and doctor bills
What is a good debt-to-income ratio?
The lower your debt-to-income ratio, the better off you are. A good debt-to-income ratio is less than
36 percent. If it's higher 36 percent, you should think about
making some
changes for a better financial situation.
Why is watching my debt-to-income ratio important?
It's important to watch how much debt you have. Knowing your ratio will help you make good decisions
about buying with credit. Keeping your debt-to-income ratio less
than 36
percent can help you avoid some major credit problems. Also, if your ratio is high, it can be hard to
get credit in emergencies.
When is my next payment due?
Your payment on your WebBank/Fingerhut Credit Account is due by the date
listed on your statement. To see your statements, sign in to your
Fingerhut.com
account and click on
My Account.
What happens if I pay my bill late? Are there late charges?
It's important to pay your bill on time. Fingerhut will charge you a late fee if your payment is
late. We will also call you or send you a letter.
You can make a payment online by clicking on the Credit Account link and using your checking or
savings account.
You can also talk to one of our representatives to make a payment over the
phone 1-800-208-2500. (There might be a fee for this service.)
To mail a check or money order, send to: Fingerhut, PO Box 166, Newark, NJ 07101-0166
Can I set up automatic payments to be taken out of my bank account?
Yes, you are able to set up automatic payments on your
Bank Credit/Debit Card or automatic withdrawals on your checking or savings
account. You can schedule the date and the amount (minimum payment, fixed
amount or the entire balance). Call 1-800-208-2500 Monday - Friday, 8 a.m.
- 8 p.m. Central Time to set up automatic payments.
My payment is due 5 days before I am paid every month. Are you able to change my due date?
We know that sometimes a due date just may not work out
for you. Call us to talk about setting a new date. 1-800-208-2500 Monday -
Friday, 8 a.m. - 8 p.m. Central Time.
How can I pay less in interest charges?
If you pay your balance off every month, you'll be in great shape! If you can't pay off your whole
balance, paying more than your minimum due will lower your interest
charges.
How can I make a payment fast?
You can make payments online at fingerhut.com or call
1-800-208-2500 Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. - 8 p.m. Central Time and pay over
the phone. There is a fee for these phone payments, but the fee is still small
compared to a late payment!
Should I worry about paying on credit in this economy?
First of all, you know how much you can spend. And most people who buy on credit make their payments.
It's always a good idea to keep your balances as small as
possible and not
"max out" your credit line.
How can I make payments if I lose my job?
If losing your job would keep you from making payments
you should sign up for our SafeLine Account Protection. With SafeLine, if
you involuntarily lose your job, or are disabled, we'll freeze your WebBank/Fingerhut Credit
Account
for up to six months. SafeLine also protects your family by paying your outstanding
balance in full should you die. Just call us at 1-800-603-7052 to sign up
for
SafeLine or learn
more.

Purchase with Purchase Promotion Returns
If you return any item that is discounted as part of a purchase with purchase
promotion, you will be credited for the item, less any discounts received.
Where is my return credit?
Everyone always wants to know how fast their return will be credited to their
account. A general rule of thumb is to allow 10 - 15 days to
receive your
return credit from the day you put it in the mail. This gives your return time to make its way back
to us and for us to process and credit your account.
You can also simply sign into your Fingerhut account to view your available balance and see if your
return credit appears.
What if I am ordering merchandise that is going to be a surprise/gift for someone? Will they be able

surprise from
being spoiled.

What is the Fingerhut FreshStart® Credit Account issued

is a 3-step installment credit program that can help shoppers

$30 down payment and your order is shipped. Finally, pay off the
balance in

rewarded with a revolving WebBank/Fingerhut Credit Account. This
