How to
This is the first article on “How to” section. The section will accommodate practical tips of doing things in our day-to-day life activities. Readers are requested to send their experiences of doing things so that their suggestion and tips help many stranded people.
Here are the following steps:
1. Visit the bank where your account is located
2. Write an application addressing the Branch Manager mentioning your new address.
3. Along with the application, submit
a) No Objection Certificate from the owner
b) Append photocopies of Electricity/ Water Bill which should be in the name of the owner
Note:
1. Don’t forget to mention your SBI saving account number.
2. Don’t forget to sign (original) in the application.
3. If your owner of the new address has SBI bank account, do mention it. And make him sign in the application as always as in the No Objection Certificate.
Take this application along with the documents and submit it to the Public Relation Officer or the person concerned.
Hope the procedure would help you while making a change in your address in the SBI saving account.
If u r staying in a rented house/flat, u will most likely to change the address one or two years whenever u change your residence.
ReplyDeleteThe best option for people on the move is to find out a friend like Mr. Xy Sinha (BM or anybody who is close to you) who is living in his own flat/house in your city. Just do take proper permission or better take a written NOC from your friend
Mr Xy Sinha. Then apply for change of address in your bank with the NOC and a Electricity or Telephone/post paid Mobile phone bill in the name of Mr Xy Sinha.
Adv:
--This address will be your address in that city for any communication as long as you and Mr Xy Sinha keep tuning the same frequency,
--No need to change address every time you change your rented flat/house,
--You can produce the same address proof as in the bank A/C for all other purposes viz. Passport, Driving Licence, etc
Disadv or cost to agreement:
--Try to visit Mr Xy Sinha occasionally with some chocolate/ fish of their choice...hahahaha for the favour from Mr Xy Sinha

India is a big country and it has majority of people who are faraway from banking services. People still don't know what is "Pay-in-Slip"!

ReplyDeleteI WANT TO CHANGE MY SBI SAVING ACCOUNT ADDRESS ONLINE..PLEASE HELP ME..
ReplyDeleteNeed an advise how to change address if already move to different location from where the SBI savings account has opened.
ReplyDeleteIt will be silly to go to savings a/c branch(hyd).. currently i am in Delhi.. There should be a way like other banks have option to submit an application for change of address from any Branch from any city(global banking).
ReplyDeleteIn this era of technology, why can't I change my address online? Supporting docs can be scanned and sent...why not upgrade and make use of technology available to us since years? It's very frustrating to have to physically go to the bank and do these chores esp. when I'm on a time crunch!
ReplyDeleteSBI policies or other government bank policies might sound old school but when keeping security in mind what they have in place is fool proof. Technology has made life easier and also easier for fraudsters.
DeleteIn this age of technology faking an address proof document is a cake walk for people who have a basic knowledge of photoshop tools.
Hence, in the interest of of the bank and you it is always better to visit the bank, provide the relevant documents, allow the bank officers to verify the documents and ensure nothing bad happens.
You might be aware of a recent fraud that happened with Citibank in Chennai where a huge amount of money was swindled by a staff member part of Citibank operations. That is the dark side of next generation banking.
Yes SBI has to put an option like other banks for change of address. In another banks they will take the application form and valid proofs and they will sent to main branch.....
DeleteIf other banks are doing wt is the problem with SBI????????
