April 15 Deadline: Last Chance to Save Your Account
PNB has set April 15 as the final deadline.
If you don’t reactivate your account before this date, it may be closed without further notice.
The bank had already shared this warning earlier through its official communication channels, asking customers to take action 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.
Why Is PNB Closing These Accounts?
PNB is taking this step mainly for security reasons.
Inactive and zero-balance accounts are more vulnerable to fraud.
By closing such accounts, the bank aims to reduce risks and protect customers.
If you’re unsure about your account status, it’s best to contact your bank branch immediately.
Don’t Ignore This Warning
If your PNB account has been inactive, don’t wait.
A quick visit to the bank or a simple transaction can save your account from being permanently closed.
