Kathmandu, Mar 20
The banks and financial institutions (BFIs) have waived off all charges
of electronic and digital banking amidst the looming Covid-19 threat.
They have removed the charges of internet and mobile banking, connect
IPS service of the Nepal Clearing House and inter-bank ATM use.
Now customers can use ATM machine of any bank to withdraw the money and
need not to reach to the ATM of their concerned bank.
This facility would continue till another notice.
Issuing a joint statement on Friday, Nepal Bankers Association (NBA),
Development Bankers Association Nepal (DBAN) and Nepal Financial Institutions
Association (NFIA) requested the customers not to reach to the branch of BFIs
without urgent work.
They also urged the customers to contact the banks and branches through
phone if they forgot their password of internet/mobile banking instead of
reaching the banks.
The organisations said that the new requests were made following the
government decision of restricting the gathering of more than 25 people at a
place and World Health Organisation declaring Nepal as a risk country.
