Here's How You Can Find Out If Your Aadhar Card Has Been (Mis)used Somewhere
What happens if a customer enters an incorrect Aadhaar Number or chooses a Bank where he doesn¡¯t have an account?
If the customer enters an incorrect Aadhaar number or selects a bank where they do not have an Aadhaar-linked bank account, the transaction will decline with an appropriate response message. It's essential for the customer to select the correct bank for the transaction. If the customer has multiple accounts with the selected bank, only the primary account will be debited, and the customer cannot choose the bank account at the time of the transaction.
Does the customer need to carry Aadhaar Card for transacting?
Carrying the Aadhaar card is not mandatory, but linking the Aadhaar Number with the bank account is necessary for the transaction to be processed successfully.
What are the charges associated with various AEPS services offered by IPPB?
No transactional charges will be levied on the customer if they avail the services at any access points or doorstep. However, doorstep service charges will be applicable to the customer as per prevailing fees.
