Bank strike from September 28-30: ATMs and 9 other services customers can avail without a branch visit; check list | Mint
Bank unions have called a nationwide strike from September 28 to September 30. Cheque clearing and cash transactions at branches may be disrupted. This affects customers who visit branches for deposits, withdrawals or cheque work. UPI (Unified Payments Interface), mobile banking, internet banking and ATMs should keep working. So pay bills, transfer funds and check balances digitally, and try ATMs before visiting a branch.
Key Statutory Highlights
- The United Forum of Bank Unions (UFBU), an umbrella body of seven bank unions and eight lakh employees, called the strike to demand a five-day workweek and settlement of other long-pending demands.
- Cheque clearing, cash deposits and withdrawals at physical branches are expected to face disruption for three days from Monday, September 28.
- UPI, mobile banking, internet banking, ATMs and Automated Deposit and Withdrawal Machines are expected to stay available for payments, transfers, balance checks and cash needs.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:For September 28 to 30, finish urgent cheque and branch cash work early and use your bank's app, UPI or an ATM for routine payments and transfers. ATM cash levels can vary by location, so keep a small cash buffer and use ADWMs, Customer Service Points or Business Correspondents if your branch help is needed.
