If you have an account with Punjab National Bank (PNB), this is important.
The bank has warned that some accounts may be closed from April 16.
This applies to accounts that have been inactive for the last three years, with no transactions and zero balance.
If your account falls into this category, you need to act quickly to avoid closure.
April 15 Deadline: Act Before It’s Too Late
PNB has set April 15 as the final deadline.
If no action is taken before this date, such inactive accounts will be closed without further notice starting April 16.
The bank had already shared this warning through its official social media channels, urging customers to update or activate their accounts on time.
How to Reactivate Your PNB Account
The good news is that reactivating your account is simple.
You just need to:
Visit your nearest PNB branch
Complete your KYC (Know Your Customer) process
Or make a transaction in your account
Even a small update or activity can help keep your account active and prevent closure.
Why Is PNB Closing These Accounts?
PNB is taking this step to reduce fraud risks.
Inactive or zero-balance accounts are more vulnerable to misuse.
By closing such accounts, the bank aims to improve security and protect customers.
If you’re unsure about your account status, it’s best to contact your branch immediately and avoid any last-minute issues.
