SBI Recruitment 2022: Bumper vacancy for these posts, salary get up to Rs78000, apply soon last date is near, know details

Over the course of the next two months, India’s largest public lender, State Bank of India, is shutting down four services for customers.

Apart from its earlier announcement that magnetic stripe-based debit cards would stop working by the end of the year, SBI is imposing restrictions on cash withdrawals, and making changes to its online banking services and rules.

Here are the details.

SBI had imposed a cash restriction withdrawal for particular cards

From October 31, SBI account holders using Classic and Maestro ATM-cum-debit cards will be unable to to withdraw more than Rs. 20,000 per day.



The withdrawal limit for these cards was Rs. 40,000, but SBI has reduced it to prevent ATM fraud and promote digital transactions.

The restriction is expected to affect many.

However, customers can switch to other cards offered by SBI if they want a higher withdrawal limit.

SBI is shutting down e-wallet SBI Buddy on November 1

SBI is also shutting down its mobile wallet, SBI Buddy, from November 1.

The bank has said that SBI Buddy wallets with zero balance are already being shut down.

However, it’s unclear what will happen to wallets that still have balance.

Although the app has over 12 million users, the shutdown is unlikely to affect many as SBI has already offered the YONO integrated digital banking platform as an alternative.

Link your mobile number to use internet banking services

SBI has also issued a notification asking all customers to link their mobile numbers with the bank by December 1 if they want to continue using internet banking services.



Customers who have not already registered their mobile numbers with SBI can do so by visiting their nearest branch.

People who do not link their numbers by the deadline will be blocked from using internet banking services.

Switch to EMV chip debit cards if you haven’t already

In accordance with an RBI order, SBI had earlier announced that all magnetic stripe-based ATM-cum-debit cards belonging to its account holders would stop working by December 31.

It had also asked all affected account holders to replace their old cards with the more secure EMV chip cards.

SBI is providing free replacements.

However, most SBI customers already use EMV chip cards.
