Punjab National Bank [PNB] — bank not changing my mobile number irrespective of several reminders

Care

Please see the chain of several communications done with punjab national bank for resolving my problem which is not resolved by bank so far. I need my nro and nre mobile number to be changed from an inactive indian mobile number to an active indian mobile number. But the bank says they can only add my international mobile number irrespective of the fact that i do come to india very often and stay some days in india (Some time for one month during annual leave). When i stay in india i cannot use my international number and have to rely only on indian number for banking transactions. The bank is not taking any action to resolve this as they are adamant it seems. Please help me to resolve this problem.

Thanks and regards

Good morning,
This has reference to the telephonic conversation dated 12th october 2017 held with you on the subject. I have been corresponding with my branch, palace road, thrissur, kerala as below for a long time on this problem as below but never yielded a positive result.
As mentioned in my below emails, kindly note that for my account numbers [protected] (Nro) and [protected] (Nre) is under the nro user id now which is[protected]. The indian mobile number provided by me before for nre account before the merger of two accounts and as per pnb online record is [protected]. This number has been updated by pnb as the mobile number now in the online system after the merger of two accounts, but this number has been deactivated as there is no international roaming facility for the number. The alternate number [protected] which was also previously used in my nro account before merger is provided with the international roaming facility which is active now. Kindly note that i need to use this number for sms and otp facility to carry out internet banking as my kuwait number will not be active in india as this number cannot be provided roaming facility by the mobile company as per the scheme. This when i come to india during long annual leave and other travel period stays in india i will not be able to carry out internet banking if i give my kuwait number. Please update the indian mobile number as [protected] urgently as this number has been provided international roaming facility so that i can carry out out internet banking during my stay in kuwait as well as in india.

Sir,
As per govt guidelines, you cannot have 2 customer id (One for local./domestic savings/fd and another for nre/nro). Hence all the customer id s are merged into single id. As you are nri, the nri customer id is retained and other ids are merged. For nro/nre ac local mobile number is not applicable. Kindly inform your international/ country of residence mobile number to update the ac for getting sms alert please.
Please call our it dept[protected], 2384625 or [protected]

Dear sir,

Once again a gentle reminder for resolving the discussed problem regarding the mobile number updates.in fact the chief manager was requesting of more deposits and how can i ever think of it due these problems.in fact i am disappointed with pnb. I think during my next visit to kerala i may have to think of my accounts in pnb. I went to my other banks and i could do the changes from the bank within half an hour.

Best regards
Ashok
