Is Zoomit secure?
You start Zoomit in Home'Bank and therefore are
automatically in a secure environment. Extensive security measures
have been applied to ensure that documents are only received by
their designated recipients. Third parties cannot obtain access to
documents not intended for them. The senders, the banks and Isabel
are always focused on security and the protection of personal
information. They do everything possible to ensure strict
compliance with the statutory regulations regarding protection of
privacy. The ways in which these parties respect your rights are
described in the privacy policies of the parties concerned. All
participating parties also commit to following the Zoomit code of
conduct.
How are my pay slips linked to my
bank?
The sender of the document will contact you to
agree on the bank account to be used for sending the invoice or
credit note via Zoomit. He may also use the bank account number
that you used for recent payments. The bank account number can be
likened to the address details on an envelope. This means that a
document with an address can be delivered to the correct
address.
How are my bills and credit notes linked
to my bank?
The sender of the document will contact you to
agree on the bank account to be used for sending the invoice or
credit note via Zoomit. He may also use the bank account number
that you used for recent payments. The bank account number can be
likened to the address details on an envelope. This means that a
document with an address can be delivered to the correct
address.
How are my direct debit notifications
linked to my bank?
In order to enable the automatic payment of
your bills by direct debit, you specified a bank account number on
the direct debit authorisation. This bank account number is used
for sending the direct debit notifications via Zoomit. The bank
account number can be likened to the address details on an
envelope. This means that a document with an address can be
delivered to the correct address.
How can I link my invoices to a
different account number (with the same bank or a different
bank)?
You can contact the sender of the document in
order to change the account number. You will find the contact
details at the top of the electronic invoice.
Can ING and Isabel view the documents
that I receive via Home’Bank and Zoomit?
The documents which are visible via Zoomit
cannot be viewed by ING staff or by Isabel. Only the user
and the document sender can view the document.
Can I give other people access to my
electronic documents via Home’Bank?
You can grant access to everyone who is an
account holder or trustee of the account to which your electronic
document is linked. You can find out more about this in the user guide
Note that you can either grant access to all account holders and/or
trustees of your account or to none of them. You cannot grant
access selectively.
Will I still receive paper copies of my
invoices if I use Zoomit?
The parties that send you electronic documents
via Zoomit will also send paper copies of the invoices for a
certain length of time during the initial phase, in order to ensure
a smooth transition. After that, you will only receive the
electronic invoices. The length of this period varies from one
sender to the next.
How long do my invoices and pay slips
remain available online?
The documents remain available via Home’Bank
for 12 months.
Who should I contact if I do not agree
with an invoice’s content?
You must contact the sender. You can find the
sender's contact details at the top of the electronic document.
Is the due date on the electronic
invoice the same as on the paper version?
Yes. The due date on the electronic invoice is
the same as on the paper version.
What information is present on the
electronic invoice?
You will find the same information you are
accustomed to see on the paper invoice.
Nothing happens when I click the Zoomit
icon. What’s wrong?
On the
Zoomit-website you can search for the cause and the solution
for your problem.
I get a red warning message: “You do not
have access to information regarding this document. This document
is confidential and can only be viewed by the intended recipient.”
What should I do?
Document holders decide whether they wish to
give others access to their electronic documents. The red warning
message means that the document holder has not (yet) granted you
permission to view his or her electronic documents. He or she can
change that if necessary.
I see a “Security Alert” screen when I
click the Zoomit icon. What’s wrong?
Simply click "Yes" (in Internet Explorer) or
"OK" (in Mozilla Firefox) to continue. The warning screen is
related to the configuration settings of your browser. Your browser
is warning you that you are leaving the secure zone of your
Home'Bank and going to another secure zone for Zoomit. However, you
remain continuously within a secure environment. You can always see
in the bottom bar of your browser that you are in a secure
environment, by the locked padlock icon.
What do I have to do if I change
banks?
Contact the sender(s) of your electronic
document(s) and advise them of the new account number. You can find
the sender's contact details at the top of the electronic document.
Be sure to archive the electronic documents that you have already
received via Zoomit. You can easily download and save your
electronic documents on the hard drive of your PC or write them to
a CD-ROM or other data storage devices for archiving.
My bill says that it hasn’t been paid
yet but I’m sure it has been paid. What went wrong?
Unfortunately, the system does not know if the
bill has been paid or not unless it is paid using the payment
button in Zoomit.
You can adjust the payment status yourself by
clicking on the "change" button next to the invoice which has been
paid. This changes the status to "payment initiated".
It only does so once you give your approval to
receive documents electronically in future.
How can I add documents from selected
senders to my list?
If documents from a certain sender are not yet in
your list, this is because documents from this sender or this type
of document from this sender are not yet available via Zoomit. As
soon as these documents are available, they will automatically be
included in the list. A list of companies whose invoices can be
managed via Zoomit can be found on the Zoomit
website > My invoices.
I don’t want to use Zoomit in my
Home’Bank. How do I apply this?
Zoomit is a free supplementary service which is
supplied automatically. What you actually see in your Home'Bank are
the available documents. In order to successfully receive these
documents electronically (and not receive them on paper any more)
you have to agree to it for each sender/document type/customer
number combination. As long as you have not accepted this, nothing
changes and you will continue to receive your documents through
your letterbox.
Will I have to pay for using Zoomit in
Home’Bank in future?
We do not plan to make this service chargeable.
Should this become the case, then you will be given the opportunity
to disable Zoomit, without charge.
