Understanding Interest Rates & Charges
[Image]
Credit cards can be a secure and flexible way to pay for things, much like a debit card. You can use them to pay for purchases online, over the phone and when you're in a store. They can also be a convenient way to borrow money (up to your credit limit) when you do not have your own funds available right away, allowing you to pay back the balance at a time when you can afford it (minimum monthly repayments do apply though).
Along with the features and benefits of a credit card, you should also consider the interest rate, fees and charges that apply.
Interest is a charge for borrowing money from a bank or financial institution when you use your credit card. It is ordinarily applied when you have an outstanding balance and are not within the interest-free period. Credit card interest is generally calculated daily on any outstanding balance and is charged at the end of the statement period if you are not eligible for interest-free days. How much interest you pay depends on which type of credit card you have, what type of transaction you make (find out more about cash advances below) and when you make your repayments.
Credit card Interest rates
Standard purchase rate: this relates to the things you buy on your credit card (e.g. groceries, petrol, subscriptions, online shopping etc) it is generally the most referenced interest rate on your card and is referred to as the annual percentage rate (APR). For example the APR on purchases for an ING Orange One Low Rate credit card is 12.99% p.a. variable.
Cash advances: A cash advance interest rate is the rate charged when you withdraw cash like you would from a debit or savings account. Cash advance transactions, such as ATM withdrawals or cash-out at shops, often attract interest rates that are higher than the standard purchase rate and they usually attract interest from the moment they're made. The ING Orange One Low Rate credit card does not have a higher interest rate for cash advances, but fees will apply and no interest fee period is offered.
Instalment plans: Credit cards with an instalment plan feature allow you to 'lock in' a lower interest rate than the standard purchase rate. With ING Orange One Credit card, if you have a balance of $250 or more, and you're not going to pay it off in one hit, you can move this amount to an instalment plan (at a lower interest rate than the APR), and pay it off in fixed monthly instalments.
Limitations and exclusions apply to the establishment of instalment plans.
Compare credit card rates across the range of ING credit cards. Find the best credit card purchase rates to suit you and your lifestyle.
Interest free days
Interest-free days on credit cards are a set number of days in which you won't be charged any interest on purchases. At ING, we won’t charge interest on purchases shown on your statement if you’ve paid the amount due on your previous statement in full by the due date.
Most credit cards come with an interest free period on standard purchases, and ING has up to 45 days interest-free on Orange One credit cards. Let's have a closer look at an example of how the interest free benefit may work. You can also find more information on how to regain the interest free period in the Orange One Terms Conditions
[Image]
Credit card fees
Some credit cards come with an annual fee which varies between banks and the type of credit card. The credit card annual fee is deducted from your available credit and accrues interest at the purchase rate unless an interest free period applies or you pay it off to $0.
During the life of your credit card you may be charged other fees. Some include late payment fees, over limit fees, international transaction fees and cash advance fees.
With an ING Orange One credit card we try to keep the fees as low as possible but fees still do apply. See our rates and fee schedule to see all the fees that apply.

Page 1 of 4 | ING IM097 | 02/25 ING is a business name of ING Bank (Australia) Limited | ABN 24 000 893 292 | AFSL and Australian Credit Licence 229823 How to complete the Loan Account Instruction Form Handy hints Section 1: Direct Debit Request In this section, provide us with details of the account you wish us to debit your regular loan repayments from. You are providing us with the authority to debit your account(s) as per your instructions and in accordance with the Home Loan Terms and Conditions. Section 2: Set up your offset account ( Note: Orange Advantage customers only) If you already have an Orange Everyday transaction account, that is not linked to a Home Loan, then you can nominate this account to become your offset account. If you don’t already have an Orange Everyday Transaction Account or if your Orange Everyday is already linked to a Home Loan, then ING can set one up for you and this will be your Offset. For each Orange Advantage home loan account you open, you must nominate one Orange Everyday account to be linked in order to receive the benefit of the interest offset facility. Important information to understand before you nominate your offset account/s: • Only Orange Everyday accounts can be used for offset purposes. We cannot link a Savings Maximiser or Savings Accelerator to your Orange Advantage home loan. • The name/s on the Orange Everyday account/s must match the names of the Orange Advantage loan/s. This means; • if you have a joint Orange Advantage your Orange Everyday account needs to be held in the same joint names. • if you hold a single Orange Advantage in only your name, you can only link Orange Everyday accounts in your name, and not in joint names. • You can only link one Orange Everyday to one Orange Advantage. This means; • you cannot link one Orange Everyday to two Orange Advantage home loans, and, • you cannot link two Orange Everyday accounts to one Orange Advantage. • If you have chosen to split your home loan across two Orange Advantage home loans you must nominate two separate Orange Everyday accounts to be linked. • Where you have no other existing open Orange Advantage accounts, the annual fee for your Orange Advantage will automatically be debited from the Orange Everyday that you have nominated for ‘Orange Advantage Loan account 1’ as stated on your Loan Offer. Joint account holders please note Your loan account will be set up to allow any one to operate, meaning we will accept and act on instructions from any borrower. If you would like to change this after settlement, simply contact ING on 133 464. Section 3: Give authority to contribute funds at settlement ( Note: Orange Everyday customers only) We recommend liaising with your solicitor or conveyancer before completing this section. Sometimes there is a shortfall between the loan amount and the balance due at settlement. By completing this section, you authorise ING to automatically debit your nominated Orange Everyday account to cover the shortfall at settlement. Important notes: • At least one account holder of the Orange Everyday account nominated in Section 3 must be an account holder for the loan/s. • If funds are not readily available in the nominated Orange Everyday account, settlement may not occur. • Funds required for settlement can vary up until the time of settlement. Section 4: Declare and sign In this section you are acknowledging and agreeing to certain matters relating to the information, instructions and authorisations given in the form. Before you sign this section take some time to review the Direct Debit Request Service Agreement on the last page.

It explains our obligations to each other under our direct debit arrangement. Please keep this agreement for future reference. It forms part of the terms and conditions of your DDR and should be read in conjunction with your DDR authorisation. Please direct all enquiries about your direct debit arrangement to the Contact Centre on 133 464.
- The direct debit arrangement • By signing the Direct Debit Request in Section 1 above, you have authorised us to arrange for funds to be debited from the account nominated in that section. The terms of the arrangement are set out in the Direct Debit Request and this Direct Debit Request Service Agreement. • You should check: • that your nominated account can accept direct debits (direct debiting may not available on all accounts). If in doubt, refer to your financial institution; and • that the account details for your external bank account are correct against a recent statement from the financial institution where it is held (please check with your financial institution if you are uncertain). • If you have any questions about how to complete the Direct Debit Request, please refer to your nominated financial institution. • We will only arrange for funds to be debited from your account as authorised in the DDR.
- Our commitment to you • ING will give you at least 14 days notice in writing if there are changes to the terms of the drawing arrangements shown in your DDR. • ING will keep any information (including your account details) in your Direct Debit Request confidential, except where required for the purposes of this agreement (including disclosing information in connection with any query or claim) or as otherwise required by law. • Where the due date for a debit is not a business day, ING will direct your financial institution to debit your account on the following business day. If you are unsure about which day your account has been or will be debited, you should ask your financial institution.
- Your commitment to us • It is your responsibility to ensure that there are sufficient clear funds available in your nominated account to allow a debit payment to be made on its due date in accordance with the Direct Debit Request. • If there are insufficient funds in your nominated account to enable a drawing to be made, we may apply a fee and/or interest for drawings which are dishonoured, in accordance with the Terms and Conditions of your ING account. Additionally, you may be charged a fee and/or interest by your nominated financial institution. You must arrange for the dishonoured drawings to be paid by another method, or arrange for sufficient clear funds to be in your account by an agreed time, so that we can process the drawing. • You must advise us if your nominated account is transferred or closed, or the account details change. • You must arrange a suitable alternative payment method if the drawing arrangements are cancelled. • Ensure that the authority given to us to draw on your nominated account is consistent with the account authority or signing instructions held by your financial institution for that account.
- Your rights • Subject to the Terms and Conditions of your ING account, you may alter your debit arrangements. Instructions to do so should be received by us at least 5 working days before the due date of the debit by logging in to online banking or phoning the Contact Centre on 133 464. We will, however, process the changes earlier, if possible. You may alter the debit arrangements:
- to stop an individual debit
- to defer an individual debit
- to suspend future debits
- to alter the debit arrangements in any other way
- to cancel the debit arrangement completely. You may also arrange to alter the debit arrangements in this way through your nominated financial institution, which is required to act promptly on your instructions. • You should check your account statement to verify that the amounts debited to your account are correct. Where you consider that a drawing has been initiated incorrectly, you should phone the Contact Centre on 133 464. Alternatively, you can also take it up directly with your nominated financial institution. We will investigate your concerns and endeavour to respond to you within 21 days. If we conclude a debit has been made in error, we will adjust your nominated account accordingly, and will notify you of the amount by which your account has been adjusted. If we conclude that a debit has not been made in error, you will be informed of this conclusion and the reasons for it.
- Other information • ING reserves the right to ask that instructions from a customer to stop or in any way alter debit arrangements are provided in a written, verbal or electronic form. • ING reserves the right to cancel debit arrangements if three or more consecutive drawings are dishonoured by your nominated financial institution, and to arrange an alternative payment method with you. • Your debit arrangements are governed by the Terms and Conditions of your ING account.

Page 1 of 1 | ING IM484 | 03/21 ING is a business name of ING Bank (Australia) Limited | ABN 24 000 893 292 | AFSL and Australian Credit Licence 229823 What is LMI? Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) is insurance that provides ING (the lender) with additional protection in cases where you (the borrower) are in default on your home loan and the sale proceeds for the secured property is not enough to repay the full amount you owe under your home loan. LMI does not provide you with any protection and ING may still seek to recover this shortfall from you. Your LMI premium is a one-off premium you pay upfront, at the time of settlement of your home loan. ING uses a third-party insurer for its LMI, and ING passes this cost on to you. LMI is payable where your deposit is less than 20% of the value of the property. So LMI enables you to borrow loan amounts in excess of 80% LVR. How much LMI do you have to pay? Your LMI premium depends on a few things relating to your borrowing circumstances. The main factors which determine the cost of your LMI premium are: • the total amount you’re borrowing (that is, the total loan amount); • the total amount of your deposit; • the Loan to Value Ratio (commonly referred to as the LVR, which is a percentage calculated by dividing the amount you want to borrow by the property value); • whether you are borrowing as an owner-occupier or investor; and • your employment status. As the LVR and total loan amount increase, so does the cost of your required LMI. To know exactly how much LMI will cost you, please speak to your ING Home Loan Specialist or your broker. Does LMI insure you? No, LMI protects ING (as the lender) against any losses in cases where you (the borrower) are in default on your home loan, ING sells the secured property to recover the amount you owe under your home loan, and the proceeds of that sale are less than the amount you owe to ING under your home loan. What’s the difference between LMI and mortgage protection insurance? LMI is very different to mortgage protection insurance. LMI is insurance which protects ING (the lender) if you default on your home loan, whereas mortgage protection insurance protects you from defaulting on your home loan. LMI provides a benefit to ING (the lender), whereas mortgage protection insurance provides a benefit to you (the policyholder) (i.e. with mortgage protection insurance your monthly mortgage repayments may be covered if you are unable to work due to serious illness, disability, redundancy or death). How do I pay for LMI? The LMI premium is a one-off upfront payment, which is added (capitalised) to your home loan at settlement. This capitalised premium is paid off with your home loan by making your required repayments. As the LMI premium is added to your total home loan amount, you will also pay interest on this amount and it will increase what you owe on your loan and your minimum monthly repayments. Can I get a refund of my LMI premium? No, the LMI premium is not refundable for any reason, including in the event of early payment or termination of your home loan or reducing your LVR below 80% after settlement. Also, you’re unable to transfer the LMI cover to another lender or loan, even if that loan is in your name with ING. Does ING obtain a commission on the LMI premium charged by the lenders mortgage insurer? ING will only charge you the actual cost of the LMI premium calculated by the lenders mortgage insurer and does not obtain a commission. The entire LMI premium is set out in your loan offer and paid by you to ING upon settlement. ING adds that amount to your total home loan amount, and forwards the premium to the insurer.

3 Thank you for considering an ING Home Loan. Before you consider whether an ING Home Loan will meet your needs, please read this Terms and Conditions booklet. It gives you helpful information, such as key features and the Terms and Conditions that apply to our home loans.

To make this booklet easier to read, take some time to go through the glossary which is titled “Explaining words in Plain English” on page 119. Words that are in the glossary are included in this booklet in italics ( like this ). You can’t miss them. For more information visit ing.com.au or call us on 133 464.

All about redraw Here are the ins and outs of how much you can borrow, additional payments , break costs and our redraw facility. The provisions in this clause 2 apply to each home loan .
14 What happens if you repay early? 2.2 Additional payments, changes to your loan and break costs 2.2.1 You may make additional payments to us at any time. 2.2.2 If you have a fixed rate loan you may be charged break costs if, before the expiry of the fixed interest period: (a) you make additional payments of $10,000 or more (either as a single payment or multiple payments) in any one-year period (with the first one-year period starting on the first day of the fixed interest period ). (b) You pay out that fixed rate loan or an amount becomes due and payable under clause 15.1.2. (c) we agree to change your loan type or fixed interest period that applies to your loan . For example, if we agree to a request you make to switch from a 5 year fixed rate loan to a 2 year fixed rate loan, or switch from a fixed rate loan to a variable rate loan ; (d) we agree to change the repayment type that applies to your loan . For example, if we agree to a request you make to switch from interest only repayments to principal and interest repayments. (e) we agree to change the loan purpose . For example, if we agree to a request you make to switch from an owner-occupier fixed rate loan to an investor fixed rate loan . In the remainder of this clause 2.2, the actions detailed in clause 2.2.2(a), 2.2.2(b), 2.2.2(c), 2.2.2(d) and 2.2.2(e) are each referred to as a “ break costs event ”. 2.2.3 When we provide a fixed rate loan to you we need to fund it through the financial markets .
15 To do this, we lock in our funding costs at a particular rate for the full fi xed interest period. If you cause a break costs event to occur during a fi xed interest period for your fixed rate loan, the interest we receive from the fi xed rate loan (for the amount of any early payment of the loan made as a result of the break costs event) stops, but our funding costs continue for the remaining fi xed interest period. We do not make a pro fi t from charging break costs. These costs simply compensate us for any fi nancial loss we incur. How break costs are calculated 2.2.4 In calculating break costs, we look at the movement in our costs of borrowing funds from the market. We do this by comparing: • the cost of funds for the full fixed interest period at the date we provided the funds to you; and • the cost of funds for the remaining term of the fixed interest period at the date you cause the break costs event to occur. We work out the movement in our cost of funds by reference to the movement in the rates at which banks lend to each other (sometimes referred to as “wholesale interest rates”) between the relevant dates. Specifically, we look to the wholesale market swap rates. If the wholesale swap rate applicable for the remaining term of the fixed interest period on the date you cause the break costs event to occur is less than the wholesale swap rate on the date we provided the funds to you we will make a loss, as we must continue to pay interest on those funds at a higher rate for the remainder of your fixed interest period .
16 Break costs are calculated by multiplying the amount of loan principal remaining at the time of the break costs event by the remaining term of the fixed interest period and by the change in our cost of funds (adjusted for receiving the money earlier than we otherwise would have as a result of the break costs event as applicable). Example 2.2.5 Assume that you borrowed $250,000 from us for a fixed interest period of 4 years. A “break cost event” occurs 2 years later (for example, you tell us you would like to pay out your fixed rate loan in full). On this date, you have 2 years remaining of your fixed interest period and your loan balance has reduced to $240,000. Say that on the date we provide you the funds ( settlement date ), the wholesale swap rate for 4 year fixed terms was 7.00%p.a. and 2 years later (the date on which the “break cost event” occurs), the wholesale swap rate for 2 year fixed terms (the amount of your fixed interest period remaining) is 4.00%p.a. The difference, or the movement in our cost of funds, will be 3.00%p.a. Break cost are calculated as the present day value of: the amount of loan principal remaining the remaining term of the fixed interest period the movement in our cost of funds X X For the purposes of this example, the break costs calculation will be $240,000 x 2 x 3.00%p.a., which equals $14,400. This amount is then “discounted” back to the present day value using a formula that calculates how much the inflow of that value
17 Warning: Break costs could be substantial, particularly if interest rates fall during the fixed interest period . Before you decide to repay a portion or pay out a fixed rate loan , or ask us to change your loan type or fixed interest period , repayment type that applies to your loan , or loan purpose contact us for an estimate of the amount of the break costs. in the future would be worth if it were made in full today. In the example above, the discount period remaining is 2 years. The above example is based on a situation where you pay out your fixed rate loan in full, and would also apply to a situation where you wish to switch your fixed rate loan to a variable rate or to a different fixed interest period . However, the calculation would be different if you made additional payments , changed the repayment type that applies to your loan or changed your loan purpose in accordance with clauses 2.2.2(a), 2.2.2(d) and 2.2.2(e) respectively. In the case of making any additional payments , we would only multiply the amount of any additional payment by the remaining term of the fi xed interest period and the movement in our cost of funds. 2.3 Redraw facility 2.3.1 If your loan has a redraw facility, this clause 2.3 applies to that loan . 2.3.2 Subject to this clause 2.3, you may redraw, on any day during the loan term , an amount from the loan account , up to but not exceeding th e amount by which the scheduled balance for that loan account on that day exceeds the balance . All about redraw
18 You cannot redraw an amount under a fixed rate loan during the fixed interest period applying to that loan. 2.3.3 We may at our discretion: (a) refuse access to any amount under the redraw facility; or (b) suspend, reduce or cancel the redraw facility; Outlined in this clause 2.3 if: (c) you’re in default under this contract ; (d) your financial circumstances have significantly changed in respect of your ability to perform your obligations under this contract since the settlement date ; or (e) it is reasonably necessary for compliance with our obligations under anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing laws, and sanctions laws . 2.3.4 You may redraw amounts under clause 2.3.2 by: (a) requesting a bank cheque payable to you or another person . If the bank cheque is payable to another person, you must make the request to us in writing; or (b) subject to applicable withdrawal limits, using our Interactive Service to instruct us to transfer the amount from your loan account to another account. 2.3.5 Redraw will no longer be available, if you or your representative request a final payout figure on your loan (this is usually just before settlement).
19 A line of credit is a flexible loan . You can access funds when you need to and only pay for what you use.

51 15.1.4 Except where you are in default in the circumstances described in clauses 15.1.1(a) and clause 15.1.1(b), we may not take any of the steps described in clause 15.1.2 unless we make an assessment (acting reasonably) that your default is material.

58 The cheque facility In this section we describe the cheque facility, explain the different parts of a cheque, and advise how to complete a cheque and other related matters. It may seem like a lot of detail, but it’s there for your protection. This clause 18 applies if we make a cheque facility available to you under a line of credit. 18.1 When you can use the cheque facility 18.1.1 If you have a line of credit , you may ask us at any time to make a cheque facility available to you under that line of credit . 18.1.2 After we’ve agreed to make the cheque facility available to you, we’ll mail your cheque book to you as soon as practicable. If any stamp duty is payable for the cheques, we will debit this to your loan account when we send the cheque book. 18.1.3 Your right to use cheques drawn on us and the cheque book is at our discretion. We may at any time suspend or withdraw 18. Just checking you know everything about the cheque facility. The cheque facility Authorised signatories All about cheques
59 those rights and facilities, or refuse to pay any cheque if: (a) we consider it reasonably necessary for security purposes; or (b) you breach any of clauses 1.3, 1.3.1, 3.2.1, 3.3.1, 8.1.1, 11, 12 or 15.4. Except where it is necessary to act immediately for security purposes, we’ll give you notice before doing so. The cheque book and all unused cheques remain our property and, if we ask, must be destroyed or returned to us. 18.2 Authorised Signatories 18.2.1 If you are a company, you may nominate any director of the company to be an authorised signatory for your cheque facility. By nominating the authorised signatory , you authorise that authorised signatory to sign and issue cheques on your loan account in accordance with this contract . This authority does not allow the authorised signatory to amend the authority or to authorise others to operate the loan account. 18.2.2 You must ensure that the authorised signatory complies with any relevant provision of this contract as though the authorised signatory was you. 18.2.3 You are responsible for the authorised signatory’s use of the cheque facility under this contract . In particular you are liable to pay us any amounts paid by us to, or at the direction of, the authorised signatory . You consent to us giving the authorised signatory information about your loan account . Authorised signatories
60 18.2.4 You may ask us to cancel the authority of the authorised signatory by sending us a request in writing. We’ll send you written confirmation of the cancellation of the authority. 18.2.5 You must ensure that any authorised signatory complies with this contract as if that authorised signatory was you. You’ll be liable for any transactions on your loan account in relation to your cheque facility , even if you didn’t authorise the transaction. You’ll be responsible for all transactions by that authorised signatory as though you made them yourself. 18.2.6 You agree to indemnify us against all losses, liabilities and damages incurred by us as a result of us acting in accordance with an authorised signatory’s instructions. You’re not required to indemnify us under this clause in relation to any loss, liability or damage to the extent it rises from negligence, fraud or wilful default by us or our officers, employees, contractors or agents. We don’t have to verify the identity of an authorised signatory, or ascertain whether they’re authorised to transact on your loan account. 18.3 Completing cheques 18.3.1 You may only write cheques on the cheque books we give you. To complete a cheque you must write: (a) the name of the person or company the cheque is made out to; (b) the amount (in words and numbers); (c) the date on which the cheque is written; and All about cheques
61 (d) the signature of authorised signatories . If the cheque isn’t completed correctly we may dishonour the cheque. 18.3.2 When filling out a cheque never write with pencil or erasable ink. Always write the amount of the cheque in words as well as figures (as words are more difficult to alter). To help reduce the risk of cheques being altered in an unauthorised way: (a) don’t leave any gaps between the words or figures; (b) begin the amount in words with a capital letter as close as possible to the words ‘The sum of’ adding the word ‘only’ after that amount and drawing a line from the end of the amount in words to the printed ‘$’; and (c) begin the amount in figures as close as possible to the printed ‘$’. 18.4 Signing a cheque 18.4.1 If you have a line of credit and there’s more than one authorised signatory , you need to tell us the minimum number of persons you want to sign a cheque. If it’s not signed by the required number it’s not valid. 18.4.2 If you have a line of credit and there’s more than one of you, any one of you can sign a cheque. 18.4.3 If you postdate a cheque, we’ll pay the cheque as soon as we receive it (subject to this contract ). We won’t wait until the date of the cheque. 18.5 What’s the effect of crossing a cheque? If you draw two transverse parallel lines from top to bottom on the face of the cheque, you’re crossing the cheque. By doing this, you’re telling the Bank you want that cheque paid into an account with a financial institution and not cashed. 18.6 What does ‘not negotiable’ and ‘account payee only’ mean?
62 18.6.1 The words ‘not negotiable’ between two parallel lines across the face of a cheque mean that the ultimate holder of the cheque who presents it for payment gets no better title to the money than the person who transferred it to them. 18.6.2 The words ‘account payee only’ on a cheque tell the Bank that the cheque should be paid only to the person named as payee in the cheque. 18.7 What is the significance of deleting ‘or bearer’? 18.7.1 The words ‘or bearer’ mean that whoever is holding the cheque can bank it. 18.7.2 If you delete these words, the cheque is an ‘order’ cheque and the bank on which the cheque is drawn should only pay it to the named payee or to any other person to whom the cheque has been endorsed. 18.8 How to cancel or stop payment 18.8.1 You may cancel or stop payment on a cheque (as long as it hasn’t already been cleared) by calling our Contact Centre or writing to us at the address in the Loan Offer . If you write to us you need to give the following information: (a) your loan account number; (b) the cheque number; (c) the cheque amount; (d) who the cheque is payable to; and (e) the reason for stopping the cheque. 18.9 Dishonouring cheques We may at our discretion, dishonour a cheque if: (a) there’s insufficient credit in your loan account to cover the cheque, or (b) the cheque is completed incorrectly, incomplete, stale, has no payee stated or has been materially altered or you haven’t authorised the alteration.
63 18.10 Lost cheques and clearing cheques 18.10.1 You must keep your cheque book and all unused cheques in a safe place at all times. Never leave signed blank cheques in your cheque book. You must let us know immediately if: (a) your cheque book is lost; (b) your cheque book is stolen; or (c) there’s been unauthorised use of your cheque book. 18.10.2 You can contact us by calling our Contact Centre or writing to us at the address in the Loan Offer . If any of these things happen and you don’t tell us immediately, other people may be able to borrow money on your loan account without your permission. 18.11 What happens if you want to clear a cheque 18.11.1 Clearing cheques involves several steps that can take a number of days. Under normal circumstances, you can’t withdraw the value of a deposited cheque until it’s been cleared, even though the proceeds of the cheque may be credited to the account. It’s the same for cheques made payable to ‘cash’. 18.12 Cancelling the cheque facility 18.12.1 We can cancel the cheque facility at any time if: (a) we consider it reasonably necessary for security purposes; or (b) you breach any of clauses 1.3, 1.3.1, 3.2.1, 3.3.1, 8.1.1, 11, 12 or 15.4. If we do, we’ll notify you beforehand or, where it is necessary to cancel the facility immediately for security purposes, as soon as possible afterwards. 18.12.2 If your cheque facility is cancelled, you must immediately destroy or return all unused cheques to us immediately.
64 18.12.3 Any cheque presented afterwards may be dishonoured, unless you make other arrangements with us. You’ll be liable for any dishonoured cheques. 18.13 Liability 18.13.1 Subject to the requirements of any law , we are not responsible or liable for; any transaction processed by us on your behalf, the dishonour or failure to dishonour any cheque drawn by you or any other actions taken or not taken in relation to your cheque facility.

If you have a complaint about the goods or services, you must resolve this directly with the merchant. Any refund a merchant gives you is a matter between you and the
79 merchant only. We’re not responsible for any refund, unless the law says we are. If any merchant agrees to give you a refund, we’ll credit your loan account once we’ve received confirmation of the refund from the merchant. 20.2.6 Subject to this clause 20, you can use your Visa Credit Card to get a cash advance from your nil interest Visa account in the following ways: (a) at a branch counter of any financial institution displaying the ‘Visa’ symbol; or (b) through most EFTPOS outlets.

The list will include only those Regular Payments that are known to us from the information we receive about your transactions. 20.6.2 To change or cancel any Regular Payment you should contact the merchant at least 15 days prior to the next scheduled payment. Until you cancel the Regular Payment we must accept the merchant’s transaction. If possible you should retain a copy of the change/cancellation request. Should the merchant fail to act in accordance with these instructions you should contact the merchant first. 20.6.3 You can ask us to dispute a transaction under a Regular Payment on your behalf. If you ask us to dispute the transaction under a Regular Payment , and the dispute is within the time limits set by Visa, we: (a) will claim the relevant amount back if it has been incorrectly charged and you have not contributed to the loss; or
81 (b) may accept the merchant’s refusal to give a chargeback if the refusal accords with the Visa rules. 20.6.4 If your Visa Credit Card has the Visa contactless symbol on the front of the card, it can be used to authorise purchases at merchants displaying the contactless symbol, simply by waving the card at the merchant’s point of sale reader. 20.6.5 Before authorising transactions using Visa contactless , you must check that the transaction amount on the merchant’s reader or cash register is correct. 20.6.6 There is no need for a Visa contactless transaction in Australia to be authorised by a PIN or signature, provided that the amount of the transaction is less than AU$100 (other limits may apply outside of Australia). 20.6.7 Note that you cannot use Visa contactless to withdraw cash.

When you’ll be liable
89 21.6 If we can prove on the balance of probability that you’ve contributed to a loss caused by an unauthorised transaction by unreasonably delaying notification that the security of your Codes or Visa Credit Card has been compromised after you become aware of the loss, theft or breach, you will be liable to us for the actual losses incurred between: (a) the time you first became aware (or should reasonably have become aware) of any of these events; and (b) the time we are actually notified of the relevant event, however, you will not be liable for any loss on any day, or in any period which exceeds any applicable daily transaction limit, for that day or period, and you will not be liable for loss in excess of the credit limit of the loan account . 21.7.1 You are not liable for any loss caused by an EFT institution’s equipment accepting your transaction but failing to complete the transaction in accordance with your instructions.

Liability when using a Visa Credit Card without a PIN Liability for BPAY ® payments 21.9.1 If a BPAY® payment is unauthorised or is made from your loan account otherwise than in accordance with your instructions, we’ll credit your account for the amount of the payment.

92 information and evidence (such as details of the correct identifier showing that it is very similar to the incorrect identifier). If you think you may have made a mistaken internet payment , you should tell us straight away, please call our Australia- based Customer Care Specialists straight away on 133 464. 21.11 When you have made a mistaken internet payment 21.11.1 If you report to us that a withdrawal to one or more Other Bank Accounts made by you was a mistaken internet payment , here’s what will happen depending upon when you report the payment to us: (a) Report within 10 business days of making the payment: if there are sufficient funds available in the account of the unintended recipient and both we and the other financial institution (which holds the account to which the reported mistaken payment was made) are satisfied that a mistaken internet payment occurred, then the other financial institution must return the funds to us within 5 to 10 business days of receiving our request. We will then return the funds to your account as soon as practicable. (b) Report between 10 business days and 7 months of making the payment: if there are sufficient funds available in the account of the unintended recipient and we are satisfied that a mistaken internet payment occurred, we’ll ask the other financial institution to investigate (which must be completed within 10 business days of receiving our request). If, after the investigation is completed, the other
93 financial institution is satisfied that a mistaken payment occurred, it must prevent the unintended recipient from withdrawing the funds mistakenly paid for a further 10 business days. The other financial institution must notify the unintended recipient that the funds will be withdrawn from their account unless they can establish that they’re entitled to the funds within this 10 business day period If the unintended recipient doesn’t establish that they’re entitled to the funds within this timeframe, the other financial institution must return the funds to us within a further 2 business days. We will then return the funds to your account as soon as practicable. (c) Report after 7 months of making the payment: if there are sufficient funds available in the account of the unintended recipient and both we and the other financial institution are satisfied that a mistaken internet payment was made, the other financial institution must seek the consent of the unintended recipient to return the funds mistakenly paid. If the unintended recipient consents, the other financial institution must return the funds to us. We will then return the funds to your account as soon as practicable. (d) Report at any time but other financial institution not satisfied that a mistaken internet payment was made: if we are satisfied that a mistaken internet payment occurred, the other financial institution may seek the consent of the unintended recipient to return the funds. If the unintended recipient consents, the other financial institution must return
94 the funds to us. We will then return the funds to your account as soon as practicable. (e) Report at any time but insufficient funds: if there aren’t sufficient funds available in the account of the unintended recipient to the full value of the mistaken payment—yet both we and the other financial institution are satisfied that a mistaken internet payment was made—the other financial institution must exercise discretion, based on an appropriate weighing of interests of both you and the unintended recipient and information reasonably available to it about the circumstances of the mistake and the unintended recipient, in deciding whether it should: (i) pursue the return of funds to the total value of the mistaken internet payment ; (ii) pursue the return of funds representing only a partial amount of the total value of the mistaken internet payment ; or (iii) not pursue any return of funds (whether partial or total). (f) Report at any time but we aren’t satisfied that a mistaken internet payment occurred: we are not required to take any further action, but may ask the other financial institution to investigate. You are liable for any loss arising from the payment. In all instances, we will advise you of the outcome of a reported mistaken internet payment in writing within 30 business days of the day on which the report was made. 21.12 When someone else has mistakenly paid into your account
95 21.12.1 If someone else has done a mistaken internet payment that results in funds being paid into your loan account , then you acknowledge and agree that you are not entitled to those funds regardless of how long the funds have been in your account. (a) Reported by the other person within 10 business days of making the payment: If you have sufficient funds in your loan account , we may, without notice, debit funds up to the total amount of the mistaken internet payment from your loan account and return it to the other financial institution. (b) Reported by the other person between 10 business days and 7 months of making the payment: If you have sufficient funds in your loan account , we may, without prior notice, place a hold on the funds in your account up to the total amount of the mistaken internet payment . Once we notify you of the mistaken internet payment , you will have 10 business days to provide evidence that you are entitled to the funds. If, at the end of 10 business days , we are not satisfied that you are entitled to the funds, then we will debit funds up to the total amount of the mistaken internet payment from your loan account and return it to the other financial institution. (c) Reported by the other person after 7 months of making the payment: If you have sufficient funds in your loan account , we will contact you to discuss the return of funds. If you provide consent to return the funds then we will debit the funds up to the total amount of the mistaken internet payment and return to the other financial institution.
96 (d) Reported by the other person at any time but we aren’t satisfied that a mistaken internet payment occurred: If we receive a written request from another financial institution for the return of funds deposited into your loan account on the basis that the funds were deposited as a result of a mistaken internet payment , but based on our own investigations we are not reasonably satisfied that the funds deposited into your loan account were deposited as a result of a mistaken internet payment , then we may contact you to discuss the return of funds. If you provide consent to return the funds then we will debit the funds up to the total amount of the payment and return to the other financial institution. (e) Reported by the other person at any time but the loan account does not hold sufficient funds: To the extent that the balance of your loan account is less than the value of the funds deposited as a result of the mistaken internet payment , we will exercise our discretion consistently with the ePayments Code , in deciding whether we should: (i) pursue the return of funds to the total value of the mistaken internet payment ; (ii) pursue the return of funds representing only a partial amount of the total value of the mistaken internet payment ; or (iii) not pursue any return of funds (whether partial or total). If we decide to return the funds to the total value of the mistaken internet payment , we will use reasonable
97 endeavours to retrieve the funds from you (which may include arranging for the repayment of the funds by instalments). 21.13 Tell us if you’re experiencing any financial difficulty 21.13.1 You should inform us as soon as possible if you are in financial difficulty. 21.14 When you may be liable for a mistaken internet payment 21.14.1 If, in our view, you’re liable under the ePayments Code for at least part of the amount of the transaction that is subject to dispute, we’ll: (a) make available to you copies of any documents or other evidence relevant to the result of the investigation; and (b) let you know in writing whether our investigations revealed any systems or equipment malfunction. 21.15.1 You acknowledge and agree that we may, without notice, debit funds from your loan account , if: (a) we receive a written request from another financial institution for the return of funds deposited into your loan account on the basis that the funds were deposited as a result of a misdirected payment ; and (b) based on our own investigations we are reasonably satisfied that the funds deposited into your loan account were deposited as a result of a misdirected payment . To resolve the misdirected payment , we will debit funds up to the total amount of the misdirected payment from your loan account and return it to Misdirected payments
98 the requesting financial institution. If the balance of your loan account is less than the value of the funds deposited as a result of the misdirected payment , the remaining credit balance of your loan account will be debited and paid to the requesting financial institution.

We’ll treat an instruction to make a BPAY® payment as authorised by you when you give us your Access Code . 22.1.2 To make a BPAY® payment you need to give us the number of your loan account from which you want us to deduct the BPAY® payment, the amount of the payment, the biller code and customer reference number, and the date you want the payment made.

100 process a BPAY® payment if you don’t give us all of this information, or if any of the information you give us is wrong. We’ll debit your loan account with the amount of the BPAY® payment. In order for us to make the BPAY® payment you need to make sure the information you provide is correct and there are sufficient funds in your loan account for any BPAY® payments. We are not acting as your agent or the agent of the biller when we make a BPAY® payment on your behalf. 22.1.3 Currently, we don’t allow you to use a credit card to pay bills through the BPAY® Scheme. If we ever do, we’ll treat that payment as a credit card purchase transaction. 22.1.4 We may suspend your right to participate in the BPAY® Scheme at any time if we suspect that you are acting in a fraudulent manner. Payments 22.2.1 We may impose limits on the amount of BPAY® payments. If we do, we’ll notify you either by advertisement in the newspaper or in writing no later than the day the change takes effect. We can also decide the order in which payments will be processed. Billers may also set limits for BPAY® payments, and these may vary depending on the type of account the payment is coming from. 22.2.2 Once you’ve instructed us to make a BPAY® payment, we cannot stop the payment except for future-dated payments, which can be cancelled before the payment due date. You can cancel a future dated BPAY® payment by notifying us in writing or by visiting our website.
101 22.3.1 Billers who participate in the BPAY® Scheme agree that generally they’ll treat a BPAY® payment as received: (a) on the day you make the BPAY® payment, if you tell us to make that payment before the cut-off time on a business day (for cut-off times, please refer to the FAQ section on our website); or (b) on the next business day , if you tell us to make that payment either after the cut-off time on a business day or on a day that is not a business day . 22.3.2 There may be additional processing time of one day or more when there’s a public or bank holiday the day after you tell us to make a BPAY® payment, you tell us to make a BPAY® payment either after the cut-off time on a business day or on a non-business day, or the biller or another financial institution involved in the BPAY® payment doesn’t meet their obligations under the BPAY® Scheme. It pays to check 22.3.3 You need to make sure you tell us the correct amount you wish to pay. If you instruct us to make a payment to a biller and discover that: (a) the amount you told us to pay is greater than the amount you needed to pay, contact the biller for a refund; or (b) the amount is less than the amount you needed to pay, you should pay the difference (using the BPAY® Scheme or another method). 22.3.4 Make sure you check your loan account records carefully and contact us immediately if you become aware: Processing times
102 (a) you’ve made a mistake when instructing us to make a BPAY® payment, or there are any delays or mistakes in processing your BPAY® payment; (b) you didn’t authorise a BPAY® payment from your loan account ; or (c) you think you’ve been fraudulently induced to make a BPAY® payment. 22.3.5 The longer the delay between the date of the BPAY® payment and when you inform us of the error, the more difficult it may be to correct the error. You may need to liaise directly with the biller to correct the error if, for example, because of the delay, we no longer have sufficient information to investigate it. 22.3.6 For us to investigate an unauthorised BPAY® payment from your loan account , you may need to give us your written consent, addressed to the biller who received that BPAY® payment, authorising us to obtain information about your account with that biller , or the BPAY® payment and including any other information we require to investigate the payment. If you do not give us the consent, the biller may not be permitted under law to disclose to us the information we need to investigate or rectify that BPAY® payment. 22.3.7 A mistaken or incorrect BPAY® payment does not constitute under any circumstances part or whole satisfaction of any underlying debt owed between you and that biller . If a payment cannot be processed 22.3.8 If we’re notified that a biller cannot process your BPAY® payment, we’ll let you know, credit your loan account with the amount of the BPAY® payment and if you wish, help you make a BPAY® payment to that biller as soon as possible.

104 Collection of your personal information We collect and handle your personal information, and the personal information of other individuals associated with your application where applicable (such as co-borrowers, guarantors, brokers), including name, contact details, identification information, credit related information, employment details and financial information. Sensitive personal information is personal information relating to your health, ethnicity, religious or political beliefs, genetic or biometric data. We may collect your sensitive personal information if we have your explicit consent or when we are required to do so by applicable local laws and regulations such as the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth) (AML laws). We’ll also need to collect personal information necessary to comply with Australian and global legal or regulatory requirements that have extraterritorial application to ING or the ING Group, including to identify customers under the AML laws, determine and report in respect of your Foreign Tax Residency Status. Use and disclosure We use your information to determine your eligibility for a mortgage product, service your financial needs and improve our technologies to provide services to you. We may use your biometric information such as face and fingerprints for authentication and/or verification or for access to mobile apps. Before collecting your information, we will provide you with specific information about the process and request your prior consent before processing your biometric information. We may use our systems to make automated decisions based on your personal information that we collect from you or other sources such as credit reporting bodies. For example, our systems may evaluate and analyse your information to
105 make decisions about your eligibility for a home loan. We create a profile of you when you apply for a loan or credit in order to assess if you can meet your financial obligations towards us and to ensure that we do not offer loans that are not suitable for you. We assess the risk connected to a contract with you via a method called credit- scoring. Your credit score is calculated based on automated decision-making. You have to achieve a pre-defined minimum-score to ensure an acceptable risk for us. You can ask us not to make decisions based on automated scores alone or object to an automated decision and request that a human review the automated decision. We may share your information with associated third parties such as other financial institutions, brokers, insurers, credit reporting bodies, legal services, and business and IT service partners and providers that help us to supply home loan products and services to you and in accordance with our legal and regulatory obligations, including those under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). We may disclose your biometric data such as face or fingerprints for authentication and/ or verification purposes such as ID document verification or identity authentication If you apply for credit with us or offer to act as guarantor for any of our customers, we will collect and share your personal information and your credit-related information with Credit Reporting Bodies (CRB), and/or we will collect your credit-related information from CRBs (Information Request). This is done for the purpose of determining your eligibility for credit (or your suitability to act as guarantor), and we may assess or rate your suitability for credit (or to act as a guarantor). Please note: (a) Your consent is not required for an Information Request.
106 (b) A record of Information Requests may be used by, and as relevant, disclosed to CRBs or credit providers for the purpose of assessing your creditworthiness, including calculation of a credit score or credit rating, subject to any limitations on use or disclosure under applicable laws, regulations, or the Privacy (Credit Reporting) Code. (c) Generally, when a credit reporting body records an Information Request related to your application for credit, this may impact your credit score or rating, which might go up, down, or stay the same. This depends on factors such as the type of credit you’re applying for, how many other Information Requests you’ve had recently, and other details in your report. An Information Request is more likely to lower your credit score if you make a lot of credit applications within a short period. If you apply for commercial credit or are a guarantor in relation to an application or credit, we can only do an Information Request with your consent. Marketing We, or other ING Group entities, may provide you with further information about ING branded products and services, and other product and services issued by ING Group entities or third parties (“promotional information”), unless you tell us not to. If you have provided an email address to us, we may contact you using that email address, including to provide you with promotional information.

109 • Or write to us ING Complaints Resolution GPO Box 4094 Sydney NSW 2001 If you dispute a transaction on your Visa Credit Card and have been unable to resolve it with the merchant, we may claim a refund – known as a ‘chargeback’ – from the merchant on your behalf. Note that we can only claim a chargeback if: • you press ‘Credit’ in store, or transact online, over the phone or overseas; or • you set up a recurring payment arrangement with the merchant, and those payments are to be processed via the Visa Scheme as a ‘Credit’ transaction. BPAY® payments made on your Visa Credit Card have no chargeback rights. The process and timeframes for reporting are set out in the Visa Scheme rules. As a guide, these are generally between 45 and 120 days from the transaction date, depending on the transaction type. Note that it’s important to report any disputed transaction within the required timeframes to ensure we retain the right to claim a chargeback. In certain circumstances where the ePayments Code applies there may be no set time limit for reporting a disputed transaction. For some disputed transactions on your Visa Credit Card we will: • credit the disputed amount and any charges related to the amount until the complaint is resolved; and • inform you of that credit. We’ll let you know if your transaction qualifies when you send through the details. Concerns regarding your Visa Credit Card

129 2. How can I get a copy of the final contract? If the contract document is to be signed by you and returned to your credit provider, you must be given a copy to keep. Also, the credit provider must give you a copy of the final contract within 14 days after it is made. This rule does not, however, apply if the credit provider has previously given you a copy of the contract document to keep. If you want another copy of your contract , write to your credit provider and ask for one. Your credit provider may charge you a fee. Your credit provider has to give you a copy - • within 14 days of your written request if the original contract came into existence 1 year or less before your request; or • otherwise within 30 days of your written request. 3. Can I terminate the contract? Yes. You can terminate the contract by writing to the credit provider so long as - • you have not obtained any credit under the contract ; or • a card or other means of obtaining credit given to you by your credit provider has not been used to acquire goods or services for which credit is to be provided under the contract . However, you will still have to pay any fees or charges incurred before you terminated the contract . 4. Can I pay my credit contract out early? Yes. Pay your credit provider the amount required to pay out your credit contract on the day you wish to end your contract . 5. How can I find out the pay out figure? You can write to your credit provider at any time and ask for a statement of the pay out figure as at any date you specify. You can also ask for details of how the amount is made up.
130 Your credit provider must give you the statement within 7 days after you give your request to the credit provider. You may be charged a fee for the statement. 6. Will I pay less interest if I pay out my contract early? Yes. The interest you can be charged depends on the actual time money is owing. However, you may have to pay an early termination charge (if your contract permits your credit provider to charge one) and other fees. 7. Can my contract be changed by my credit provider? Yes, but only if your contract says so. 8. Will I be told in advance if my credit provider is going to make a change in the contract? That depends on the type of change. For example - • you get at least same day notice for a change to an annual percentage rate. That notice may be a written notice to you or a notice published by your credit provider. • you get 20 days advance written notice for -
- a change in the way in which interest is calculated; or
- a change in credit fees and charges; or
- any other changes by your credit provider; except where the change reduces what you have to pay or the change happens automatically under the contract . Insurance
- Is there anything I can do if I think that my contract is unjust? Yes. You should first talk to your credit provider. Discuss the matter and see if you can come to some arrangement. If that is not successful, you may contact
131 the AFCA scheme. The AFCA scheme is a free service established to provide you with an independent mechanism to resolve speci fi c complaints. The AFCA scheme can be contacted by: • calling 1800 931 678; • going to afca.org.au; • emailing info@afca.org.au; or • writing to: Australian Financial Complaints Authority GPO Box 3 Melbourne VIC 3001 Alternatively, you can go to court. You may wish to get legal advice, for example from your community legal centre or Legal Aid. You can also contact ASIC, the regulator, for information on 1300 300 630 or through ASIC’s website at www.asic.gov.au. 10. Do I have to take out insurance? Your credit provider can insist you take out or pay the cost of types of insurance specifically allowed by law . These are compulsory third party personal injury insurance, mortgage indemnity insurance or insurance over property covered by any mortgage. Otherwise, you can decide if you want to take out insurance or not. If you take out insurance, the credit provider cannot insist that you use any particular insurance company. 11. Will I get details of my insurance cover? Yes, if you have taken out insurance over mortgaged property or consumer credit insurance and the premium is financed by your credit provider. In that case the insurer must give you a copy of the policy within 14 days after the insurer has accepted the insurance proposal. Also, if you acquire an interest in any such insurance policy which is taken out by your credit provider then, within 14 days of that happening, your credit provider must ensure
132 you have a written notice of the particulars of that insurance. You can always ask the insurer for details of your insurance contract . If you ask in writing your insurer must give you a statement containing all the provisions of the contract . 12. If the insurer does not accept my proposal, will I be told? Yes, if the insurance was to be financed by the credit contract . The insurer will inform you if the proposal is rejected. 13. In that case, what happens to the premiums? Your credit provider must give you a refund or credit unless the insurance is to be arranged with another insurer. 14. What happens if my credit contract ends before any insurance contract over mortgaged property? You can end the insurance contract and get a proportionate rebate of any premium from the insurer. Mortgages 15. If my contract says I have to give a mortgage, what does this mean? A mortgage means that you give your credit provider certain rights over any property you mortgage. If you default under your contract , you can lose that property and you might still owe money to the credit provider. 16. Should I get a copy of my mortgage? Yes. It can be part of your credit contract or, if it is a separate document, you will be given a copy of the mortgage within 14 days after your mortgage is entered into. However, you need not be given a copy if the credit provider has previously given you a copy of the mortgage document to keep.
133 17. Is there anything that I am not allowed to do with the property I have mortgaged? The law says you cannot assign or dispose of the property unless you have your credit provider’s, or the court’s, permission. You must also look after the property. Read the mortgage document as well. It will usually have other terms and conditions about what you can or cannot do with the property. 18. What can I do if I find that I cannot afford my repayments and there is a mortgage over property? See the answers to questions 22 and 23. Otherwise you may - • if the mortgaged property is goods - give the property back to your credit provider, together with a letter saying you want the credit provider to sell the property for you; • sell the property, but only if your credit provider gives permission first; OR • give the property to someone who may then take over the repayments, but only if your credit provider gives permission first. If your credit provider won’t give permission, you can contact the AFCA scheme for help. If you have a guarantor , talk to the guarantor who may be able to help you. You should understand that you may owe money to your credit provider even after the mortgaged property is sold. 19. Can my credit provider take or sell the mortgaged property? Yes, if you have not carried out all of your obligations under your contract . 20. If my credit provider writes asking me where the mortgaged goods are, do I have to say where they are? Yes. You have 7 days after receiving your credit provider’s request to tell your credit provider. If
134 you do not have the goods you must give your credit provider all the information you have so they can be traced. 21. When can my credit provider or its agent come into a residence to take possession of mortgaged goods? Your credit provider can only do so if it has the court’s approval or the written consent of the occupier which is given after the occupier is informed in writing of the relevant section in the National Credit Code. 22. What do I do if I cannot make a repayment? Get in touch with your credit provider immediately. Discuss the matter and see if you can come to some arrangement. You can ask your credit provider to change your contract in a number of ways - • to extend the term of your contract and reduce payments; or • to extend the term of your contract and delay payments for a set time; or • to delay payments for a set time. 23. What if my credit provider and I cannot agree on a suitable arrangement? If the credit provider refuses your request to change repayments, you can ask the credit provider to review this decision if you think it is wrong. If the credit provider still refuses your request you can complain to the AFCA scheme. Further details about this scheme are set out below in question 25. 24. Can my credit provider take action against me? Yes, if you are in default under your contract . But the law says that you cannot be unduly harassed or threatened for repayments. If General
135 you think you are being unduly harassed or threatened, contact the AFCA scheme or ASIC, or get legal advice. 25. Do I have any other rights and obligations? Yes.

Page 1 of 2 | ING3039 | 02/20 ING is a business name of ING Bank (Australia) Limited | ABN 24 000 893 292 | AFSL and Australian Credit Licence 229823 It’s important to remember: when you’re assessed for an interest-only loan, it’s based on your ability to pay the higher principal and interest payments in the future. Because your loan term remains the same (30 years, for example), the longer you go for interest only, the higher the principal and interest repayments will be at the expiry of your interest-only period, as you’ll still need to pay the original principal in your agreed loan term. You could have the flexibility to choose With ING Home Loans most customers choose to pay ‘principal and interest’ repayments from the get-go. But this doesn’t work for everyone. If you’re an owner-occupier, you have the option to apply to pay ‘interest only’ repayments for up to five years over the life of your loan, or up to 10 years if you borrow to invest in property. After the interest-only period, your loan will revert to principal and interest repayments. Your repayment option depends on what you want to achieve as well as your eligibility for Interest Only. So here are some things to consider when deciding which way you’d like to repay your loan. Understanding the difference Here’s a quick summary of principal and interest versus interest only. Principal and interest Interest only With principal and interest, your repayments include a combination of the monthly interest plus a portion of the original loan amount, called the principal. Paying principal and interest will put you on track to fully repay your home loan within the agreed loan term. With interest only, your repayments only cover the monthly interest, not any of the original loan amount. That means there’ll be no reduction in the principal, so the balance of your loan will remain outstanding at the end of the agreed interest-only period. Example: seeing what’s still owed after 10 years Here’s the impact of paying principal and interest compared to interest only after the first 10 years of an investor home loan. We’ve based our comparison on a $400,000 loan over 30 years at a 4% p.a. interest rate with an initial interest-only period of 10 years and no fees. Principal & Interest Interest Only Monthly repayment: $1,909 per month for 10 years s Remaining principal: $315,136 Remaining principal: $400,000 Monthly repayment: $1,333 per month for 10 years Different ways to repay. Deciding the best way to repay your home loan

Principal and interest Interest only • People often choose principal and interest so they can own their home sooner and this option is designed to ensure you pay off the loan by the end of your loan term. • While paying the principal as well as interest may mean higher repayments in the short term compared to paying interest only, the total cost will be less over time – see the example below for just how much. • Paying principal and interest can also help create equity in your home as you steadily reduce the amount owing compared to the value of your property. • Having equity in your home not only helps provide peace of mind, it could provide greater financial flexibility in the future if you want to access your equity to pay for other things • People have the option to choose interest only to lower their initial repayments or tax bill BUT it will mean higher repayments after the expiry of the interest only period. • If you’re investing in property you have the option to choose interest only to receive a tax deduction on the exact interest you pay, or to free up money for other things. • Repayments are lower during the interest-free period, which might be suitable if you’re planning to renovate and need cash, or you need a short-term lower repayment due to a change in your circumstances. • It is possible to build equity in your property with Interest Only repayments, but you are relying on the increasing market value of your property. • Be aware: you must fully financially qualify for interest only, and it is important to understand that your repayments will be higher than your previous principal-and-interest payments once the interest only period ends. So it’s important you plan ahead. Example: comparing the cost long term Building on the previous example, here’s the difference in total repayments between paying principal and interest and interest only over the full term for an owner-occupier home loan. This example’s also based on a $400,000 loan over 30 years at a 4% p.a. interest rate, with no fees. Getting independent advice Because you have to live with your home loan for a long time, we want you to be comfortable with your choice of repayment type. If you’re unsure which option is best for you, we recommend speaking to your tax adviser or an independent financial planner. You can find licensed planners in your area at fpa.com.au Any questions, we’re here to help on 133 464 , 8am – 8pm, 7 days (AEST/AEDT) or visit ing.com.au For the curious: Any advice in this fact sheet does not take into account your objectives, financial situation or needs, and you should consider whether it is appropriate for you.

In other words, any cover made available under this Group Policy in respect of the same loss shall only be excess insurance cover over and above the applicable Other Policy. If you make a claim under another insurance policy and you are not paid the full amount of the claim, then, subject to the provisions of the Insurance Contracts Act 1984 (Cth), the cover available to you under the Group Policy will make up the difference, to the extent of cover that applies, in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in this booklet. Should we make payment to you for the full amount of the claim, we may seek contribution from your other insurer. In such circumstances, you must give us any information that we reasonably require to help us make a contribution claim from the other insurer. Limitation of cover Regardless of anything contained in this Policy to the contrary, we shall not be liable to provide any cover or benefit or pay any claim where the provision of cover or benefit or payment of claim would constitute a breach of any trade or economic sanction, embargo, prohibition or restriction imposed by any of the following: United Nations, United States of America, Australia, European Union, United Kingdom, or New Zealand, or any other applicable national trade or economic sanctions, laws or regulations. This applies where such geographical location, provision of goods, services or other reasons shall contravene such sanction, embargo, prohibition or restriction.

In particular: • If you think that you may have to cancel your journey or shorten your journey, you should tell us as soon as reasonably possible. Contact Allianz Global Assistance using the contact number, or if overseas the 24-hour Emergency Assistance number, shown inside the front cover of this booklet; • In the event of an emergency or admission to hospital overseas or for medical, hospital or dental claims, contact Allianz Global Assistance as soon as practicable; • For loss or theft of your covered items or valuables, you should as soon as reasonably practical report it to the police and obtain confirmation of your report. If you unreasonably delay or fail to make a report, we may reduce or refuse your claim to the extent we are prejudiced; • For damage or misplacement of your covered items or valuables, caused by the airline or any other operator or accommodation provider, report the damage or misplacement as soon as reasonably possible to an appropriate official and make reasonable efforts to obtain a written report, including any offer of settlement that they may make. Depreciation When taking into consideration the age of a covered item or valuable we will deduct the following amounts from our settlement for each item you have claimed: • For toiletries and medication (including skin care, makeup, perfume, deodorant and aftershave) we will deduct 50% of the purchase price for each year you have owned the item up to a maximum deduction of 80%; • For mobile phones, smart phones, electrical devices, communication devices, all computers (including laptops and tablets), photographic equipment and electronics equipment we will deduct 20% of the purchase price for each year you have owned the item up to a maximum deduction of 80%; • For clothing, footwear, luggage and books we will Claims are payable in Australian dollars We will pay all claims in Australian dollars. We will pay you unless you tell us to pay someone else. The rate of currency exchange that will apply is the rate at the time you incurred the expense. Payment will be made by direct credit to a bank account nominated by you. Recovery If we have a claim against someone in relation to the money we have to pay or we have paid, you must take reasonable steps to help us do that in legal proceedings. If you are aware of any third party that you or we may recover money from, you must take reasonable steps to inform us of such third party. When making a claim you For example You have a $500 digital camera that was purchased 2 years before the date it was lost. The applicable rate of depreciation would be 20% per year. In settlement of your claim we would pay you $300 (i.e. we will depreciate the value of the digital camera by 20% of the purchase price for each of the 2 years you have owned it), calculated as follows: Year 1 - Purchase price of $500 less 20% ($100) = $400 Year 2 - Depreciated value of $400 less 20% of the purchase price ($100) = $300 deduct 15% of the purchase price for each year you have owned the item up to a maximum deduction of 80%; • For camping, sporting and leisure equipment (but not leisure clothing) and musical instruments we will deduct 10% of the purchase price for each year you have owned the item up to a maximum deduction of 80%; • For jewellery we will not make any deduction. Please note, watches are not considered jewellery and are included under other items below; • For all other items we will deduct 15% of the purchase price for each year you have owned the item up to a maximum deduction of 80%.
57 58 should tell us about any other insurance under which you are or might be able to claim. If you can claim from another insurer and we also pay you in respect of the same insured event, then you will be required to refund to us the amount we paid if the other insurer also pays you. You cannot claim from us and from the other insurer to obtain an aggregate amount that exceeds your loss. If during the period of cover made available, you suffer a loss which is not fully covered by the Group Policy, we may offer to attempt to recover your uninsured loss for you. You may specifically ask us to recover this for you, however, we have no obligation to do so. You will need to give us documents supporting your loss. Before we include any uninsured loss in a recovery action we will also ask you to agree to the basis on which we will handle your uninsured recovery action. You may need to contribute to legal costs in some circumstances. We will apply any money we recover from someone else under a right of subrogation in the following order:
- to us, our costs (administration and legal) arising from the recovery.
- to us, an amount equal to the amount that we paid to you under your policy.
- to you, your uninsured loss.
- to you, your excess. Once we pay your total loss we will pay you the balance of any money left over. If we have paid your total loss and you receive a payment from someone else for that loss or damage, you must pay us the amount of that payment up to the amount of the claim we paid you. How GST may affect your claim If you are entitled to claim an input tax credit in respect of a cost for which a claim is made, or would be entitled to an input tax credit if you were to incur the relevant cost (i.e. in replacing a lost or stolen item), the amount we would otherwise pay will be reduced by the amount of that input tax credit. Fraud When making a claim you have a responsibility to assist us and to act in an honest and truthful manner. If any claim is fraudulent in any way or if you or anyone acting on your behalf uses fraudulent means to make a claim on the cover described in this booklet, then no payment will be made in regard to the claim. Also, the Bank will be informed of the situation, and you may no longer be eligible for the cover described in this booklet. Complaints and Disputes If you are dissatisfied with our service in any way, please contact us and we will attempt to resolve the matter in accordance with our internal dispute resolution procedures. If we do not make a decision within the period that we tell you we will respond, we will tell you about your right to lodge a complaint with an external dispute resolution scheme.

Privacy Statement for ING At ING, we are committed to ensuring the confidentiality and security of your personal information. We are bound by the Privacy Act 1988, including the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) set out in that Act, to guide us in our responsible handling of your personal information. By accepting the terms and conditions of your ING account you consent to our collection, handling, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Statement. You can also review the ING Privacy Policy on our website or request a copy by either calling or writing to us. Collection of your personal information Ordinarily, we’ll collect most personal information about you directly from you. Occasionally we may need to obtain personal information about you from a third party, but only if you’ve consented to us collecting the information in this way or you would reasonably expect us to collect the information about you in this way. We’ll collect personal information to provide you with information about a financial product or service; to assess your application and eligibility for a financial product or service; to provide you with the financial products and services that you’ve requested; to administer our relationship with you; and to communicate with you about ING and the products and services we offer, and then only when it’s necessary for, or related to, these purposes. We’ll also need to collect personal information necessary to comply with Australian and global legal or regulatory requirements that have extraterritorial application to ING or the ING Group. For example, ING has an obligation to identify customers for the purposes of the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006. If you don’t provide the personal information that we request, we will generally not be able to provide you with ING products or services. Use and Disclosure of your personal information The general rule is that we will not use or disclose your personal information other than for the purposes stated at the time of the collection.

15 6.1 How to access credit Subject to these Terms and Conditions, you and any Additional Cardholder can access the credit in your Account by: (a) using the Visa Credit Card to make payments using an EFTPOS terminal (including by using Visa contactless); (b) subject to clause 6.24, using the Visa Credit Card to withdraw cash from an ATM or from financial institutions displaying the Visa symbol; (c) using the Card Details to complete Transactions online, or by mail order or telephone order; (d) authorising a third party (such as a health insurer or utilities provider) to withdraw funds under a regular payment arrangement; or (e) using the Card Details stored in a digital wallet to make Purchases. You may also make BPAY ® payments by accessing our Interactive Service. Additional Cardholders cannot make BPAY payments. 6.2 Transferring funds between ING accounts Where the Account has a credit (positive) balance and subject to these Terms and Conditions, we’ll transfer the amount by which your Account is in credit to your Autopay Account. 6.3 We can refuse to process a Transaction We may, in certain circumstances, refuse to authorise or delay the processing of any Transaction. These circumstances may include, for example, where there are security reasons, or where we believe in good faith that doing so may breach local or international laws (including anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing laws, and Sanctions Laws), or where we reasonably suspect that your Account, Visa Credit Card, Interactive Service or any other ING account that you hold is being used unlawfully, or in connection with possible fraud or scam activity, or in any way that might otherwise cause you or us to lose money. These Terms and Conditions detail further circumstances in which Transactions on your Account may be refused. 6. Accessing and using your Account. General
16 6.4 EFT Terminals When you or an Additional Cardholder make a Transaction at an EFT Terminal, you authorise us to act on the instructions given. You or the Additional Cardholder must check the Transaction details entered into the EFT Terminal to ensure they are correct before authorising a Transaction (including any Transaction using Visa contactless). You or the Additional Cardholder should also check the completed Transaction to ensure that it has been processed in accordance with the instructions given. 6.5 Authorisations When you or an Additional Cardholder use the Visa Credit Card or Card Details to carry out a Transaction, the Merchant may seek an authorisation on your Account. This is to establish there are sufficient funds in your Account, and to temporarily hold funds needed to complete the Transaction. Authorisations may also be taken for Transactions that will be processed some time in the future, such as car hire, accommodation and at unmanned terminals, (e.g. unmanned parking stations). In these cases, the funds that are held are for an anticipated amount. This means that once processed, the amount of the Transaction may be different to the amount of the authorisation. Once an authorisation is obtained, your Available Limit will be reduced by the authorisation amount until: • the Transaction is processed, or • the authorisation is cleared or expires. Once the Transaction is processed, this will be reflected in your Account. 6.6 ATMs Some ATMs may not have money available for withdrawals and some Merchants, financial institutions and/or ATMs may not accept the Visa Credit Card. If the ATM doesn’t return a Visa Credit Card, contact us immediately, not the financial institution that owns the ATM. 6.7 Not all goods and services may be purchased with the card When a Merchant displays the ‘Visa’, ‘EFTPOS’ or ‘Visa contactless’ symbol, they’re not promising all their goods and services may be purchased with the Visa Credit Card. 6.8 We’re not responsible for Merchants We’re not responsible if the Merchant refuses to accept or honour a Visa Credit Card. Using the Visa Credit Card
17 6.9 Price may differ The price a Merchant charges for goods or services purchased with a Visa Credit Card may be different from the price the Merchant charges for the same goods or services purchased with cash. 6.10 Our liability for goods or services purchased with the card We do not accept any responsibility for the goods or services purchased with the Visa Credit Card, unless required to do so by law. 6.11 What can you use your Account for? (a) Your Account must only be used for personal, domestic or household purposes. We reserve the right to determine whether or not any use of your Account is for one of these purposes. (b) Your Account must not be used for any unlawful purpose, including buying goods or services prohibited by Australian law. We may refuse to authorise a Transaction on your Account if any Visa Credit Card has been reported lost or stolen, or we have any other good reason to do so. 6.12 Using Visa contactless Visa contactless can be used to authorise Purchases at Merchants displaying the contactless symbol, simply by waving the Visa Credit Card at the Merchant’s point of sale reader. ATMs that display the contactless symbol may also allow you to withdraw cash, again by waving the Visa Credit Card at the ATM’s card reader. 6.13 A PIN may be required A PIN may be required to authorise Visa contactless Transactions. The circumstances in which a PIN is required are determined by Visa and/or the Merchant processing the Transaction, and may change from time to time. Cash withdrawals using Visa contactless will always require a PIN or signature. 6.14 You cannot withdraw cash using Visa contactless at an EFTPOS terminal Visa contactless cannot be used to withdraw cash through an EFTPOS terminal. Visa Contactless
18 Click to Pay 6.15 Using Click to Pay Click to Pay is Visa’s express online checkout experience. It allows you to make online payments to participating merchants with your Visa Credit Card without having to type out all of your card details. 6.16 Enrolment In order to use Click to Pay with your Visa Credit Card, your Visa Credit Card must be enrolled into the Click to Pay service. ING may automatically enrol any active Visa Credit Card into the Click to Pay Service.

Visa uses the CTP Profile Information to either: (d) create your profile on the Click to Pay service (‘CTP Profile’) and connect your Visa Credit Card to it; or (e) connect your Visa Credit Card to your existing CTP Profile. For example, if your personal details or card number are updated, we will share these details with Visa so your CTP Profile remains up to date. 6.17 Self Enrolment If you have enrolled your Visa Credit Card into the Click to Pay service directly with Visa, once we enrol your Visa Credit Card into Click to Pay: (a) any agreement between you and Visa regarding the Click to Pay service will be void, and these Terms and Conditions will apply instead; and (b) you will no longer be able to enrol it into Click to Pay directly with Visa. 6.18 Managing your Opt In or Opt Out Preferences for Click to Pay You can opt out of the Click to Pay service at any time through your online banking. You can always re-enrol back into the Click to Pay service at any time. You can amend your enrolment preferences for the Click to Pay service up to three times per Credit Card within a 24-hour period.
19 6.19 What happens when you receive a reissued or replacement credit card Reissued cards (same card number) If your previous Credit Card was enrolled in the Click to Pay service, your reissued card will remain enrolled. If you previously opted out your Credit Card from Click to Pay and receive a reissued Credit Card with the same card number, you will remain opted out from the Click to Pay service. Replacement cards (new card number) If you are issued a replacement Credit Card with a new card number, it will automatically be enrolled in the Click to Pay service. If you had previously opted out from Click to Pay and receive a replacement Credit Card with a new card number, you will need to take steps to opt the replacement Credit Card out from the Click to Pay service. 6.20 Using Click to Pay Your CTP Profile Information will be used within the Click to Pay service to automatically complete fields in online check out forms with participating merchants. In using the Click to Pay service, you warrant that: (a) the CTP Profile Information that we hold about you is yours; (b) you have the authority to use the Visa Credit Card linked to your CTP Profile; and (c) the CTP Profile Information is correct, complete and up to date. Visa, participating merchants and other third parties may use and share your CTP Profile Information about a transaction, including to complete the transaction. In using the Click to Pay service with your Visa Credit Card, you agree that you will not: (d) use Click to Pay in any way that is not permitted by law; (e) disrupt or interfere with the security or operation of, or otherwise abuse, any part of the Click to Pay service; (f) attempt to access any part of the Click to Pay service without authorisation; (g) use Click to Pay in any way that could be considered defamatory, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, threatening, invasive of a person’s privacy, or in violation of any third party rights; (h) reproduce Click to Pay in any form, or store or incorporate Click to Pay in any information retrieval system;
20 (i) copy, emulate, clone, rent, lease, sell, commercially exploit, modify, decompile, disassemble, distribute, reverse engineer or transfer Click to Pay or any portion thereof; or (j) use any device, software or routine to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of Click to Pay and/or take any action that imposes an unreasonably or disproportionately large burden on the Click to Pay system, as determined by Visa in its sole discretion. 6.21 Changes to Click to Pay Visa may make changes to the Click to Pay service from time to time. Your continued use of the Click to Pay service will be taken as acceptance of those changes. ING may make updates to these Terms and Conditions to reflect any such changes. If you don’t agree to any updates, you must discontinue use of the Click to Pay service. 6.22 Liability In using Click to Pay, you acknowledge that neither ING nor Visa is a party to any transaction with a merchant that is made using Click to Pay.

21 6.23 When you can make a Cash Advance In most situations, Cash Advances won’t be available unless you have enabled the Cash Advance functionality on your Account. You may enable the Cash Advance functionality: (a) via the Mobile Application; (b) using Online Banking; or (c) by calling us on 133 464. There may be circumstances where Transactions will be processed as Cash Advances when you haven’t enabled the Cash Advance functionality on your Account. This may occur, for example, where a Merchant does not correctly categorise the Transaction at the time it is made. 6.24 Additional Cardholders cannot authorise Cash Advances Additional Cardholders are not authorised to enable the Cash Advance functionality on your Account. 6.25 Withdrawing cash You, and any Additional Cardholder, may withdraw cash using the Visa Credit Card in the following ways: (a) at a branch counter of any Australian or international financial institution displaying the Visa symbol; (b) through most EFTPOS terminals; or (c) from an ATM displaying the Visa symbol. Cash withdrawals may be subject to an applicable limit. Don’t forget that Transactions other than cash withdrawals can be treated as a Cash Advance. 6.26 Fees and limits on Cash Advances (a) We'll apply the Cash Advance fee described in the Credit Card Offer for each Cash Advance; (b) We'll apply the Cash Advance limit described in clause 18.3 of these Terms and Conditions. However, there may be circumstances where Transactions will be processed as Cash Advances when you've exceeded the Cash Advance limit, or doing so would cause you to exceed this limit. This may occur, for example, where a Merchant does not correctly categorise the Transaction at the time it is made. If this happens, it does not mean that your Cash Advance limit has been increased, or that we will process Transactions that exceed your Cash Advance limit in the future. Cash Advances
22 6.27 Card can be used in most countries The Visa Credit Card can be used in most countries overseas. 6.28 Tell us about travel plans Before you, or any Additional Cardholder, use a Visa Credit Card overseas, you should notify us of the regions or countries in which the Visa Credit Card will be used, and the dates of such use, by using the Mobile Application. When we’ll treat a transaction as an International Transaction: A Transaction made using a Visa Credit Card will be an International Transaction if it is made: (a) in a foreign currency; or (b) in Australia dollars or a foreign currency, where: (i) the Merchant or financial institution accepting the Visa Credit Card; or (ii) the entity processing the Transaction; is located outside of Australia. 6.29 Your liability for Transactions conducted overseas You are liable for the Australian dollar equivalent of the amount of all International Transactions authorised by you or an Additional Cardholder. 6.30 How International Transactions are converted into Australian dollars International Transactions and other foreign currency amounts including charges, will be converted into Australian dollars as at the date they are processed by Visa International. The conversion rate is selected by Visa International from the range of rates available in wholesale currency markets on the processing date. International Transactions and other amounts may be converted directly into Australian dollars, or converted into United States dollars before being converted into Australian dollars. 6.31 There may be a delay in processing an International Transaction International Transactions may not be processed to your Account on the same day that they are made. To the extent permitted by law, you bear the risk of a change in exchange rates in the intervening period. International Transactions and using the Visa Credit Card overseas You will not always know that a Merchant or a processing entity is located outside Australia.
23 6.32 International transaction fee We’ll apply the international transaction fee described in the Credit Card Offer for each International Transaction. 6.33 BPAY Scheme ING is a member of the BPAY Scheme. We’ll let you know if this changes. 6.34 Paying with BPAY You can authorise a Transaction using BPAY via our Interactive Services. Additional Cardholders cannot make BPAY payments. To make a BPAY payment, you need: (a) the payment amount; (b) the biller code and customer reference number; and (c) the date you want the BPAY payment made. In order for us to make the payment, you need to make sure that the information you provide is correct and the payment would not cause the balance of your Account to exceed the Credit Limit. Remember, when we make a BPAY payment on your behalf, we’re not acting as your or the biller’s agent. 6.35 Scheduled payments Scheduled payments by BPAY can only be made if, as at midnight the Business Day before the payment is scheduled, the payment would not cause the balance of your Account to exceed the Credit Limit. If the payment would cause the balance of your Account to exceed the Credit Limit when the scheduled payment is processed, that payment will be cancelled. Future scheduled payments will remain. If the scheduled payment is on a non-Business Day, it will generally be made the next Business Day. You can stop or suspend an individual scheduled payment via Online Banking by cancelling it before the date of the payment. 6.36 Processing times Billers who participate in the BPAY Scheme agree that generally they’ll treat a BPAY payment as received: (a) on the day you make the BPAY payment, if you tell us to make that payment before the cut-off time on a Business Day (for cut-off times, please see the FAQ section on our website); or (b) on the next Business Day, if you tell us to make that payment either after the cut-off time on a Business Day or on a non Business Day. Transactions by BPAY
24 There may be additional processing time of one day or more when: • there’s a national public holiday the day after you tell us to make a BPAY payment; • you tell us to make a BPAY payment either after the cut-off time on a Business Day, or on a non-Business Day; or • the biller or another financial institution involved in the BPAY payment doesn’t meet their obligations under the BPAY Scheme. 6.37 It pays to check If you instruct us to make a BPAY payment to a biller and discover that: (a) the amount you told us to pay is greater than the amount you needed to pay, you should contact the biller for a refund; or (b) the amount is less than the amount you needed to pay, you should pay the difference (using BPAY or another method). If you’ve made a mistake when instructing us to make a BPAY payment please contact the biller directly, alternatively please call us and we will attempt to recover the mistaken amount from the biller. Make sure you check your Account records carefully and contact us immediately if you become aware that: • you’ve made a mistake when instructing us to make a BPAY payment; • of any delays or mistakes in processing your BPAY payment; • you didn’t authorise a BPAY payment from your Account; or • you think you have been fraudulently induced to make a BPAY payment. A mistaken or incorrect BPAY payment does not constitute under any circumstances part or whole satisfaction of any underlying debt owed between you and the biller. 6.38 If a payment cannot be processed If we’re notified that your BPAY payment cannot be processed by a biller, we’ll: (a) let you know; (b) credit your Account with the amount of the payment; and (c) if you wish, help you make a payment to that biller as soon as possible. 6.39 Complaints and liability Any complaints about goods or services purchased with a BPAY payment (rather than about payment processing) must be resolved directly with the biller concerned.
25 6.40 Concerns regarding BPAY If you’re concerned that a BPAY payment made from your Account is unauthorised, you may need to give us your written consent (addressed to the biller who received the payment) stating that we can obtain information about your account with the biller, including: (a) the BPAY payment and your customer reference number, and (b) any other information we need to investigate the payment. If you don’t give us your consent, the biller may not give us the information we need to rectify that BPAY payment. When you or an Additional Cardholder use your Visa Credit Card, offers, rewards and rebates may be available. These are outlined in the sections below. 6.41 ING Pocket Perks ING Pocket Perks is a rewards program for Orange One Visa Credit Card holders. With ING Pocket Perks, cashback offers from select Merchants ('Cashback Offers') may be available. The details are set out below. Each Visa Credit Card issued under your Account will be enrolled into ING Pocket Perks. This will ordinarily happen within 24 hours of the Visa Credit Card being activated, however in some rare cases there may be a delay of up to 90 days. You can enrol the Visa Credit Card yourself by logging into mobile banking and navigating to your card, then selecting 'ING Pocket Perks'. Once you do this, your Visa Credit Card will be enrolled with immediate effect. Cashback Offers ING Pocket Perks Cashback Offers are displayed in the Mobile Application. These Cashback Offers may be personalised to the Visa Credit Card holder based on transaction and other card activity data. Cashback Offers may also be shared with the Visa Credit Card holder by email unless the Visa Credit Card holder has requested not to receive marketing communications from us. Each Cashback Offer is subject to specific eligibility requirements set by the Merchant providing the Cashback Offer (“Offer Terms”). Redeeming Cashback Offers To redeem a Cashback Offer, the Visa Credit Card holder must complete a Transaction that meets each of the following requirements (a “Qualifying Purchase”): • is a transaction with the Merchant providing the Cashback Offer that is processed through the Visa network; and Rewards and rebates
26 • satisfies each of the Offer Terms set out in the Cashback Offer. For a Transaction to be processed through the Visa network, it must be completed by: • using the Visa Credit Card for instore Transactions; or • entering or sharing the 16-digit Visa Credit Card number for online, mail order or telephone order Transactions. Transactions that are processed using a third party payment checkout services will not satisfy the requirements of a Qualifying Purchase, even when the Visa Credit Card is linked to that payment checkout service. Once a Qualifying Purchase is completed, the cashback under the Cashback Offer will be credited to your Account. Cashback is usually credited within 7 days of the Qualifying Purchase being fully processed (not pending), but in some cases, it may take up to 100 days depending on the Merchant and the Offer Terms. For the purposes of clause 12 of these Terms and Conditions, cashbacks will not be treated as a payment to your Account. We may send the Visa Credit Card holder email updates on any Qualifying Purchase under a Cashback Offer. Opting out of personalised offers If any Visa Credit Card holder no longer wishes to receive personalised ING Pocket Perks Cashback Offers, or communications about them, they can opt out of receiving marketing communications by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any marketing communication from ING. Where a Visa Credit Card holder opts out, non-personalised Cashback Offers will continue to be available, and cashback will be paid if a Qualifying Purchase is made under any Cashback Offers. Information about Cashback Offers will also continue to be available in the Mobile Application. Changes to your Visa Credit Card or Account Any cashback earned under a Cashback Offer can only be credited to your Account if the Visa Credit Card used to make the Qualifying Purchase is active and payments into the account are unrestricted at the time the cashback is paid. This means: • If the Visa Credit Card used to make a Qualifying Purchase is subsequently cancelled or replaced with a Visa Credit Card with a new card number, any cashback earned under a Cashback Offer cannot be paid. However, the ability to use the replacement Visa Credit Card to access future Cashback Offers will continue unchanged.
27 • If the Visa Credit Card used to make a Qualifying Purchase is subsequently reissued and the card number remains the same (even if the CVV and expiry date change), any cashback earned under a Cashback Offer with that Visa Credit Card will be paid. The ability to use the reissued Visa Credit Card to access future Cashback Offers will continue unchanged. • If your Account is closed, all Visa Credit Cards will be cancelled and you will no longer be able to access ING Pocket Perks for the Account. Any cashback earned prior to the closure of your Account will not be paid. Our rights We may, acting reasonably, disable ING Pocket Perks on your Account or refuse to honour any Cashback Offer if: • your Account is closed; • we reasonably suspect that a Visa Credit Card holder has engaged in gaming, fraud or other unlawful activity in the use of ING Pocket Perks; • there is a material breach of this Contract; or • we are otherwise authorised or compelled by law to do so. If this occurs, we will let you know. We may, acting reasonably, make changes to, or withdraw the availability of ING Pocket Perks. We will let you know if we do this. In participating in ING Pocket Perks, you acknowledge that neither ING nor Visa will be a party to any purchase agreement between you and the Merchant providing any Cashback Offer. Accordingly, as far as the law permits, neither ING nor Visa is liable for: • any loss, damage, expenses or claim (whether direct, indirect or otherwise) in relation to any personal injury, death, false representation, damage or omission arising from or in connection with the access, or attempted access, of any Cashback Offer, or any goods or services provided in connection with any Cashback Offer; and • any non-fulfilment or dispute arising from access, or attempted access, of any Cashback Offer.

This may occur, for example, when a Transaction is conducted manually or when a payment is debited to your Account under a regular payment arrangement. Fees and interest charges may also cause you to exceed the Credit Limit on your Account. We’ll notify you of the first time you exceed the Credit Limit in a Statement Cycle. That notice will be given no later than 2 Business Days after we become aware of it. You must immediately pay us the Overlimit Amount. We do not need to ask you for that amount first.

When you speak with one of our Customer Care Specialists, we may need to verify your identity (including where you request to update your personal details). To do so, we may ask you to tell us the one-time passcode that we provide by SMS to your registered mobile number and you should provide it to us so that we can verify that we are speaking with you; (d) You must not record a Code on the physical Visa Credit Card. (e) You must not keep a record of any Code (without making a reasonable attempt to protect the security of the Code) on your Visa Credit Card, in or on anything you usually carry with your Visa Credit Card, as it could be lost or stolen at the same time as the Visa Credit Card. The only exception from this requirement is where the Code is a one-time passcode that we provide by SMS to your registered mobile number and you have linked your virtual Visa Credit Card to the digital wallet on the device linked to that mobile number, and you: • access our Mobile Application, or • have linked your virtual Visa Credit Card to the digital wallet on the device linked to that mobile number.

It’s important that you, or the Additional Cardholder, tell us as soon as you or they realise or suspect anyone else knows any of the Codes (including an Access Code or PIN), or your Visa Credit Card or Access Method is lost, stolen or used without permission because if you or they don’t do so you may be liable for any transactions that occur on the Account, including all associated fees and charges – liability for Unauthorised Transactions will be determined in accordance with clause 24 of these Terms and Conditions and the ePayments Code. 23.2 Reference details We’ll provide reference details to confirm that we have been alerted to the situation. 23.3 You won’t be liable for Unauthorised Transactions in certain circumstances If, for any reason, the telephone number above is not operational at the time notification is attempted, you won’t be liable for any Unauthorised Transactions which could have been prevented during that time, provided notification is made within a reasonable time of the telephone number becoming operational again. 23. Loss, theft or unauthorised use of an Access Method.
69 Unauthorised Transactions are Transactions that are performed without your consent and knowledge. An Unauthorised Transaction does not include: a transaction you perform; a transaction anyone else performs with your knowledge and consent (for example, if you give another person a Code that authorises a transaction); a transaction that is performed by using your Visa Credit card and another person's Biometric Identifier which are registered on the same compatible mobile device. If you think that you have been the subject of a scam then you should contact us immediately. 24.1 What happens if EFT Transactions are conducted without your knowledge or consent?

Who’s responsible for Unauthorised Transactions? When you’re not liable
70 24.4 Your liability may be limited If it’s not clear whether you or any Additional Cardholder have contributed to the loss caused by an Unauthorised Transaction that required one or more Codes, the amount of your liability will be limited to the least of: (a) $150; (b) the actual loss at the time we’re notified that the security of the Codes was breached or the Visa Credit Card has been lost, stolen or used without permission (limited by the applicable daily or periodic transaction limits over the relevant timeframe); and (c) the available balance of your Account when the Unauthorised Transaction was made. 24.5 You’ll be liable if you contributed to the loss If we can prove on the balance of probability that you or an Additional Cardholder contributed to the loss caused by the Unauthorised Transaction: (a) through fraud; (b) by failing to comply with the Code Security Requirements; (c) that is caused by the fraudulent or negligent conduct of our employees, agents, those of companies involved in networking arrangements with us, or Merchants linked to the EFT System or their employees or agents; (d) that results from the same Transaction being incorrectly debited more than once to your Account by us; (e) that occurs after we have been notified that the security of a Code has been breached or a Visa Credit Card has been lost, stolen or used without permission; (f) if it’s clear that neither you, nor any Additional Cardholder, have contributed to the losses; (g) that can be made using an Identifier (a non-secret identifier such as your Account number) without a Visa Credit Card or Code; or (h) that can be made using a Visa Credit Card, or a Visa Credit Card and an Identifier but which does not require a Code, unless there is an unreasonable delay in the reporting of the loss or theft of the Visa Credit Card. When you’ll have limited liability When you’ll be liable
71 (c) where more than one Code is required to perform a Transaction and we prove: (i) that the security of a Code for one or more Codes has been breached, but not all of the required Codes; and (ii) we can prove on the balance of probability that a breach of security of a Code was more than 50% responsible for the losses when assessed together with all the contributing causes, then you are liable for the actual losses which occur before we are notified of the loss, theft or misuse of the Code or Visa Credit Card or a breach of the Code Security Requirements. You are liable in full for the actual losses that occur before the loss, theft or misuse of a device or breach of the Code Security Requirements is reported to us. However, you won’t be liable for any loss on any day, or in any period, exceeding any applicable daily transaction limit for that day or period and you won’t be liable for loss in excess of the Credit Limit. 24.6 What happens if you leave a card in an ATM? If you, or any Additional Cardholder, leave a physical Visa Credit Card in an ATM, you will be liable for all losses arising from Unauthorised Transactions as long as the ATM incorporates reasonable safety standards that lessen the risk of the physical Visa Credit Card being left in the ATM (e.g. ATMs that capture physical Visa Credit Cards that aren’t removed or which require a user to swipe and then remove a physical Visa Credit Card before commencing the Transaction). 24.7 Why it's important to tell us immediately if security of a Code has been compromised If we can prove on the balance of probability that you or an Additional Cardholder have contributed to a loss caused by an Unauthorised Transaction by unreasonably delaying notification that the security of a Code or Visa Credit Card has been compromised after you or the Additional Cardholder became aware of the loss, theft or breach, you will be liable to us for the actual losses incurred between: (a) the time you or the Additional Cardholder first became aware (or should reasonably have become aware) of any of these events; and (b) the time we are actually notified of the relevant event, however, you won’t be liable for any loss on any day, or in any period which exceeds any applicable daily transaction Liability for unreasonably delaying notification
72 limit, for that day or period, and you won’t be liable for loss in excess of the Credit Limit. 24.8 You won’t be liable for equipment errors, except where you knew of the error You are not liable for any loss caused because the EFT System or Electronic Equipment accepted your instructions, or the instructions of an Additional Cardholder, but failed to complete the Transaction. However, if you or the Additional Cardholder were aware, or should have been aware, that the EFT System or Electronic Equipment was unavailable or malfunctioning, our responsibility will be limited to: (a) correcting errors in your Account; and (b) refunding any charges or fees imposed as a result. 24.9 What we won’t be responsible for We’re not responsible for: (a) errors, inaccuracies, interruptions, viruses or defects due to any system or equipment failing to complete a Transaction; (b) delays resulting from any network, system or equipment failing to support the Interactive Services or Visa Credit Card; or (c) any Interactive Services or Visa Credit Card system or equipment failing to complete Transaction instructions. 24.10 What we’ll do if we’re responsible If we're responsible, our liability is limited to the cost of re-supplying the service. 24.11 You won't be liable for unauthorised BPAY payments If a BPAY payment is unauthorised or is made from your Account otherwise than in accordance with your instructions, we'll credit your Account for the payment amount. If a BPAY payment is fraudulently induced by someone involved in the BPAY Scheme, then that person should refund you that payment. If that person doesn't refund the payment you have to bear the loss. That is unless some other person in the BPAY Scheme: (a) knew of the fraud; or (b) would have detected it with reasonable diligence. In this case, that person must refund you the payment. Liability caused by equipment malfunctions Liability for BPAY payments
73 24.12 We're not liable for indirect loss or damage We're not liable for any indirect loss or damage you may suffer as a result of using the BPAY Scheme, unless we: (a) acted negligently; or (b) breached any condition or warranty in regard to the supply of goods or services, which can't be excluded or limited under law 24.13 You indemnify us You indemnify us against any loss or damage we may reasonably incur due to any action of any kind brought against us because you: (a) did not observe any of your obligations in connection with this Contract; or (b) acted negligently or fraudulently in regard to this Contract. Your liability under this clause is reduced to the extent ING’s negligence, wilful misconduct or fraud contributed to the action being brought against us.
74 25.1 Our right to reverse a Transaction We have the right under the Credit Card Scheme Rules to seek the reversal of a Transaction, involving a “Chargeback” or debiting of the Transaction to the Merchant’s account with its financial institution, in the circumstances provided for by those Rules. 25.2 When we’ll claim a Chargeback right We’ll claim a Chargeback right where one exists under the Credit Card Scheme Rules. We’ll use our best efforts to Chargeback a disputed Transaction for the most appropriate reason. This does not mean that the disputed Transaction will necessarily be charged back. 25.3 The Merchant will need to accept the claim The Merchant’s financial institution must accept the claim in order for any claim by you, or any Additional Cardholder, to be successful. If the Merchant’s financial institution rejects a Chargeback, we won’t accept that rejection unless we are satisfied that the rejection is reasonable and is consistent with the Credit Card Scheme Rules. 25.4 You should report a disputed Transaction as soon as you can You or an Additional Cardholder should make every effort to report a disputed Transaction to us within 30 days of the date of the statement of account which contains that Transaction, so that we may reasonably ask for a Chargeback where that right exists. 25.5 What could happen if you don’t report a disputed Transaction or don’t provide information requested Failure by you or an Additional Cardholder to report a disputed Transaction, charge, refund or payment, and to provide any additional information required within this timeframe could affect our ability to claim a Chargeback right (if any) under the Credit Card Scheme Rules and result in you being liable for the amount of that Transaction, charge, refund or payment. These rules impose time limits on reporting disputed Transactions, charges, refunds or payments. In certain circumstances where the ePayments Code applies there may be no set time limit for reporting a disputed Transaction. 25.6 Chargeback rights do not apply to BPAY payments The chargeback rights described in clauses 25.1 to 25.5 do not apply in respect of BPAY payments made from your Account. 25. Chargebacks.

79 If you have any further questions about privacy at ING please contact us by: calling 133 464 emailing privacyaccessrequests@ing.com.au writing to: ING Privacy Office GPO Box 4094 Sydney NSW 2001 Our privacy statement may be updated from time to time as we strive to improve the standard of service we provide to you. If you apply for credit with us or offer to act as guarantor for any of our customers, we will collect and share your personal information and your credit-related information with Credit Reporting Bodies (CRB), and/or we will collect your credit-related information from CRBs (Information Request). This is done for the purpose of determining your eligibility for credit (or your suitability to act as guarantor), and we may assess or rate your suitability for credit (or to act as a guarantor). Please note: i. Your consent is not required for an Information Request. ii. A record of Information Requests may be used by, and as relevant, disclosed to CRBs or credit providers for the purpose of assessing your creditworthiness, including calculation of a credit score or credit rating, subject to any limitations on use or disclosure under applicable laws, regulations, or the Privacy (Credit Reporting) Code. iii. Generally, when a credit reporting body records an Information Request related to your application for credit, this may impact your credit score or rating, which might go up, down, or stay the same. This depends on factors such as the type of credit you’re applying for, how many other Information Requests you’ve had recently, and other details in your report. For example, making multiple credit applications over a short period may negatively impact your credit score. If you apply for commercial credit or are a guarantor in relation to an application for credit, we can only do an Information Request with your consent. How to contact us Credit Information

- How can I get details of my proposed credit contract? ING must give you a precontractual statement containing certain information about your contract. The precontractual statement, and this document, must be given to you before- your contract is entered into; or you make an offer to enter into the contract; whichever happens first.
- How can I get a copy of the final contract? If the contract document is to be signed by you and returned to ING, you must be given a copy to keep. Also, ING must give you a copy of the final contract within 14 days after it is made. This rule does not, however, apply if ING has previously given you a copy of the contract document to keep. If you want another copy of your contract, write to ING and ask for one. ING may charge you a fee. ING has to give you a copy- within 14 days of your written request if the original contract came into existence 1 year or less before your request; or otherwise within 30 days of your written request.
- Can I terminate the contract? Yes. You can terminate the contract by writing to ING so long as- you have not obtained any credit under the contract; or a card or other means of obtaining credit given to you by ING has not been used to acquire goods or services for which credit is to be provided under the contract. This statement tells you about some of the rights and obligations of you and ING. It does not state the terms and conditions of your contract. If you have any concerns about your contract, contact ING and, if you still have concerns, the AFCA scheme, or get legal advice.

ING must give you the statement within 7 days after you give your request to ING. You may be charged a fee for the statement. 6. Will I pay less interest if I pay out my contract early? Yes. The interest you can be charged depends on the actual time money is owing. However, you may have to pay an early termination charge (if your contract permits ING to charge one) and other fees. 7. Can my contract be changed by my credit provider? Yes, but only if your contract says so. 8. Will I be told in advance if my credit provider is going to make a change in the contract? That depends on the type of change. For example- you get at least same day notice for a change to an annual percentage rate. That notice may be a written notice to you or a notice published by ING. you get 30 days advance written notice for - a change in the way in which interest is calculated; or a change in credit fees and charges; or any other changes by ING; except where the change reduces what you have to pay or the change happens automatically under the contract. 9. Is there anything I can do if I think that my contract is unjust? Yes. You should first talk to ING. Discuss the matter and see if you can come to some arrangement. If that is not successful, you may contact the AFCA scheme. The AFCA scheme is a free service established to provide you with an independent mechanism to resolve specific complaints.

92 10. What do I do if I can not make a repayment? Get in touch with ING immediately. Discuss the matter and see if you can come to some arrangement. You can ask ING to change your contract in a number of ways- to extend the term of your contract and reduce payments; or to extend the term of your contract and delay payments for a set time; or to delay payments for a set time. 11. What if my credit provider and I can not agree on a suitable arrangement? If ING refuses your request to change the repayments, you can ask ING to review this decision if you think it is wrong. If ING still refuses your request you can complain to the AFCA scheme. Further details about this scheme are set out below in question 13. 12. Can my credit provider take action against me? Yes, if you are in default under your contract. But the law says that you can not be unduly harassed or threatened for repayments. If you think you are being unduly harassed or threatened, contact the AFCA scheme or ASIC, or get legal advice. 13. Do I have any other rights and obligations? Yes. The law will give you other rights and obligations. You should also READ YOUR CONTRACT carefully.
