By signing this application, I agree to abide and be bound by the terms and conditions of the Cardholder Agreement which Home Trust will send (as amended or restated from time to time). I agree that you may open a Home Trust VISA account in my name ("Account"), issue me card(s), Personal Identification Number and renewals or replacements from time to time. I agree if I use my card or Account, I shall be deemed to have requested and received the card, Account and Cardholder Agreement, and that I agree with everything written in the Cardholder Agreement and this application.

Failure to do so will result in forfeiting the Security Deposit up to the amount of the Debt owing.
