| | ====== Banking — Bank Fraud + RTI Command Desk (India 2026) ====== |
| | |
| | This is the banking command desk for India 2026. You will find 51+ citizen-tested guides spanning UPI and AEPS fraud recovery, UPI AutoPay subscription debits, NACH and ECS auto-debit disputes, credit-report errors, credit-card settlement and CIBIL risk, broker payout delays, debit-card and ATM disputes, failed NEFT / IMPS / RTGS transfers, loan-app harassment, RBI ombudsman escalation, KYC and dormant-account release, bank-locker access and locker compensation, and the apply-and-open workflows for every common product. Every guide is free, no login, no payment. The legal spine is the **RBI Limited Liability Circular (2017, updated 2022)** that resets your liability to zero if a fraud is reported within 3 working days, the **RBI Master Direction on KYC (2016, amended 2024)**, the **Banking Ombudsman / RBIOS Scheme 2021**, and **BNS 318 + IT Act 66D** for criminal action. |
| | |
| | <WRAP center round info 95%> |
| | **Quick Answer — the 4-minute citizen drill if money leaves your account wrongly:** |
| | (1) Dial **1930** or file at **cybercrime.gov.in** within 30 minutes so the receiving bank can freeze the account. (2) Email your home bank in writing within 3 working days — the **RBI Limited Liability Circular** resets your liability to **zero** for unauthorised electronic transactions. (3) Escalate to RBIOS at **cms.rbi.org.in** if the bank does not refund in 10 working days. (4) Pursue Section 138 NI Act or BNS 318 in parallel where applicable. |
