There was a time when people had to go to the bank and stand in long queues just to withdraw their money from the bank account, but now times have changed and this does not happen now. Now people go to the ATM to withdraw money from the account. Where you can withdraw money from your account in minutes and that too you can do this whenever you want. For this, you just need a debit card, but many times people face this problem that their debit card gets blocked due to which they have to face a lot of problems. If your ATM card is also blocked then you do not need to worry because here you can know a way by which you can get it unblocked. So let's know about these methods...
Why does the debit card get blocked?
The biggest reason behind our debit card getting blocked is entering the wrong PIN. When you go to withdraw money from an ATM and enter the wrong PIN more than three times, then your card is blocked for security reasons under the automatic system.
This is how you can get your debit card unblocked:-
If you have got your debit card blocked due to some reason and now you want to get it unblocked, then for this you have to go to the nearest branch of your bank. Here you have to give a written application in which you have to write about unblocking the card. After this, the bank can accept your application and unblock your card.
The bank can ask for these documents
When you give a written application to the bank to get your debit card unblocked, then the bank can ask for a photocopy of your Aadhar card along with it. Also, keep in mind that you must take your passbook and other bank-related documents with you so that the bank can easily identify you.
Also, know this
If you have entered the wrong PIN three times after inserting the debit card into the ATM, then in such a situation the card gets blocked automatically, but after the next 24 hours, it gets unblocked automatically. In such a situation you do not need to go to the bank.
