Looking at some new banks in the country, sure enough, IDFC First Bank is one of those that catch a lot of attention for growing super fast and becoming super reliable for the customers. Like, it was only started in 2015 officially, though the history of it all goes back to 1997. Anyway, today, we’re here specifically to talk about the bank balance check services offered by this bank, like via SMS, missed call enquiry method and a few others, just to show you how good of a customer service this bank puts out there.
How To Check IDFC First Bank Balance With a Missed Call?
Perhaps the simplest way to check your balance is using the missed call method, and the best thing about it all is that you do not have to pay a thing, and all of this can be done without any internet connectivity whatsoever. This is how the whole thing pans out:
- So, the first thing you need to do is get that phone and dial 1800-2700-720 from the mobile that is registered with your IDFC First Bank account.
- Once called, the line will be cut off just like that; no human interaction is required.
- Then, just in a matter of seconds, the SMS will be on your phone with the account balance there right in front of you.
- That is all there is to it! A quick missed call, and you are pretty much all set.
Note: There is one thing to keep in mind- it has to be the registered mobile number. If you attempt to enter another number, it shall never work. So, make sure you are entering the right number, or it may lead to problems.
