Airtel Payments Bank Now Allows Users to Transfer Funds via NEFT 24×7

Airtel Payments Bank users can now transfer funds via National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT) at any time of the day. In-line with the Reserve Bank of India’s guidelines, Airtel Payments Bank customers can do NEFT transactions on a 24×7 basis. The transfers will work even on holidays enabling the customers to receive or send funds to any bank from anywhere, anytime. Usually, NEFT transactions do not work on holidays and non-bank hours, especially with the government banks. However, it has changed now. Airtel Payments Bank already allows users to transfer funds via UPI at any time, but now, they can also do NEFT transactions.

Airtel Payments Bank NEFT Fund Transfer Becomes Hassle-Free

For the unaware, Airtel Payments Bank customers can transfer funds via NEFT using the banking section of the Airtel Thanks app or website of the Airtel Payments Bank. Customers will have to select the ‘Transfer Money’ option followed by ‘transfer to Bank’ option, after which a screen to register beneficiary will appear. Once the beneficiary registration process is completed, the customer can easily transfer the money. Sadly, the beneficiary registration process still exists. Unlike UPI, you can’t transfer funds via NEFT without the beneficiary registration.

Mr Ganesh Ananthanarayanan, Chief Operating Officer, Airtel Payments Bank, said, “We are committed to providing customers with efficient and smooth banking experience. We welcome the RBI mandate as it will allow our customers to easily transfer the money to any bank account at any time using NEFT mode. This will add to the overall online banking experience for the customers.”
