Root check logs detect whether a mobile device has certain restrictions imposed on the device by the manufacturer removed. The removal of restrictions, known as jailbreaking, allows the installation of apps and extensions that are not supported by the manufacture or operating system. A mobile device that had been jailbroken is often more susceptible to malware.
IMB may request you to complete a virus scan or take your computer or mobile device to a reputable computer technician to remove the Malware. Once IMB confirms the Malware has been removed from your computer or device, any restrictions will be removed.
If IMB is able to detect Malware on your computer or mobile device, we may contact you via phone or secure email. For the purposes of protecting your personal information and identity we may also restrict Internet or Mobile Banking until the detected malware has been removed from the infected computer or device. If at any time, you are unsure of a phone call you have received from IMB, please call us on 133 462.
Malware is malicious software used to infect or access your computer or mobile device. This includes computer viruses, Trojans, Spyware, Ransomware and more. Malware is typically distributed through clicking on links or attachments in phishing emails, compromised websites and ad banners.
GPS Location logs determine the location of your mobile device when you access the IMB Banking Application. The GPS Location Logs better assist us to detect any irregularities in your device location and if we detect any irregularity we may take appropriate action to stop the payments or activity on your account.
From time to time, IMB may contact you via phone or secure email regarding your Internet or Mobile Banking if we have detected unusual activity or transactions on your account. We may also contact you if we have detected Malware on your computer or mobile device. It is important to remember that;
If you do not agree to the collection of certain information, this limits the information that IMB is able to use to detect fraudulent activity and as a precaution it may not be possible for IMB to provide full access to Internet and Mobile Banking.
We are committed to protecting your personal information from loss and unauthorised access, use, modification and disclosure. IMB maintains security at all our locations and only our staff and service providers who are authorised to handle your information will have access to your personal information.
IMB will collect information related to assisting our members with a positive banking experience whilst maintaining security of your account and protecting your personal information and identity. This includes information we gather from the technology which you use to access our services and how you use it; for example information we collect includes Malware Info Logs, Root check logs and GPS and IP location logs.
The security of your Internet Banking and Mobile Application is very important. IMB collects information that could assist us to protect our members from fraudulent activity or malicious acts designed to steal an identity or banking credentials.
Following these tips will help ensure the security of your mobile device:-
Never share your app PIN with anyone.
Don't record your app PIN in a place that is easily accessible to others, including in your phone's contact list.
Choose PINs that are difficult for people to guess. Avoid consecutive and repeating numbers or numbers that are associated with you, like your date of birth etc.
Never store anyone else's fingerprints on your phone.
Set your screen to auto-lock & add a password or PIN to unlock your screen.
Update your device's operating system when recommended by your phone vendor. These updates often provide fixes for problems and risks on your device.
Do not remove the controls the phone vendor has put in place to protect you. By doing so you may inadvertently provide a hacker access to your mobile and your personal information.
Please refer to IMB's PDS for further details on how to keep your device safe.
Please contact IMB Bank on 133 462 (Monday - Friday 8am - 8pm or Saturday 9am - 4pm) to advise us of your new number.

Before selling or giving away your device you will need to have the device deregistered by contacting IMB Bank on 133 462 (Monday - Friday 8am - 8pm or Saturday 9am - 4pm).

The app is protected as your app PIN or biometric ID which must be used to access the app. This prevents other people accessing your data if the device is lost, stolen or borrowed. Using an incorrect biometric ID a number of times will cause the app to revert to the PIN. Entering the app PIN incorrectly a number of times will block the app. The app can then only be unblocked by contacting IMB.
The Balance Peek display will be available without signing into the app if you have turned this function on. The app will remain secure unless someone else has a biometric ID stored on your device or access to your app PIN or internet banking password.
For added security, we also recommend that you set your screen to auto-lock & add a password or PIN to unlock your screen.
At IMB Bank the security of your personal and account information comes first.

Each time you use the app, the device and your app PIN or biometrics are validated. Multiple attempts to access the app on your device with an incorrect biometric will cause the app to revert to the PIN. Multiple attempts to access the app with an incorrect PIN will result in access to the app being blocked.

There is no guarantee that mistaken payments can be retrieved. Be sure to check your transaction history after processing an Osko payment to check the transaction was successful.
An Osko transaction is much faster as the funds should be in the account almost immediately using PayID.
The PayID name is shown allowing an additional check to ensure you are paying the intended recipient.
The account is checked to see if it can accept an Osko payment before completing the transaction.
Osko by BPAY, has transformed the way we pay each other. Osko is an innovative payment service, and because it is built on the New Payments Platform, it allows all Australians to make and receive payments faster,
24/7 via any participating Financial Institution. Rather than waiting hours or days for a payment from someone who uses a different bank, money can be moved in near real-time with funds available almost immediately,
within applicable transaction limits. Osko enables payments to one another more conveniently, including enabling payments to a PayID which means you don’t need to disclose your BSB or account number when requesting payment.
Find out more about Osko at www.osko.com.au
Your PayID will be closed if you close the account your PayID is linked to or don’t use your PayID for 3 years. If you have any questions about your PayID, contact IMB on 133 462 (Monday - Friday 8am - 8pm or Saturday 9am - 4pm).
Your PayID can have the following statuses that govern how it can be used:
Created - Your PayID is active and can be used for payments.
Locked – Your PayID has been locked and cannot be used for payments.
Transferring – Your PayID is able to be transferred to another Financial Institution but can still be used.
Closed – Your PayID is closed and cannot be used for payments.
Once you have created your PayID you will need to log into our Mobile Application or Internet Banking to Lock, Transfer or Close the PayID.
If you only have View access in Internet Banking then you will not have the option to create a PayID. In order to change your access type for Internet Banking contact IMB on 133 462 (Monday - Friday 8am - 8pm or Saturday 9am - 4pm).
Have you or someone with authority for the mobile number or email address already created the PayID at IMB or another Financial Institution? A mobile number or email address can only be used to create a PayID at one Financial Institution.
If this is not the case you should contact IMB on 133 462 (Monday - Friday 8am - 8pm or Saturday 9am - 4pm) and prove ownership of the PayID. Once this has been confirmed:
If the PayID is held by IMB we can close the PayID and you can create it; or
If the PayID is held by another Financial Institution we will contact them to resolve ownership of the PayID via the PayID Dispute Resolution Process. We will investigate the dispute on your behalf and resolve ownership of the PayID with the other Financial Institution.
Yes, multiple PayIDs can be linked to the same account number (e.g. your mobile number and email address can be linked to the same IMB account number).

Greater peace of mind as you no longer have to provide your sensitive financial account information, such as BSB and account number, to payers to receive Osko payments from them.
Greater convenience as you can provide payers with details you are more likely to remember such as an email address or mobile number.
You can easily and quickly change the account that your PayID is linked to through IMB without needing to inform Payers of the change.
PayID is a unique identifier linked to your transaction account for Osko payments. PayID replaces the need to provide your account information.
PayID links commonly available information, such as your email address or phone number to an eligible account at IMB Bank.
After you create a PayID you can tell payers to make Osko payments to your PayID instead of giving out your account information.
A payment can only be made to a PayID when the payment is made via Osko. You can make an Osko payment to a BSB and account number.
Payments made outside of Osko must be made to a BSB and account number.
