RRB Extends Deadline for Bank Details Update for Exam Fee Refund

The Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) has announced an extension for candidates to update their bank details to facilitate the refund of examination fees. This decision comes as many refunds were delayed due to discrepancies in the bank account information provided by candidates.

RRB has taken the initiative to address issues related to incorrect or incomplete bank account details that caused hindrances in processing the refunds for a significant number of candidates. To resolve this issue, a special link has been activated for candidates to re-update their bank information.

Candidates who made their examination fee payments using Internet Banking, Credit card, UPI, or Debit Card and selected the same mode for refunds might face challenges if there have been changes to their bank account information or if their accounts have been closed. In such cases, the banking system may not be able to retrieve the necessary details for refund processing, leading to delays.

It is crucial for candidates who are yet to receive their refunds to promptly utilize this opportunity provided by RRB to update their bank account details accurately. Upon successful submission, candidates will receive email and SMS notifications on their registered email address and mobile number confirming the same.

During the bank details update process, candidates will be required to undergo OTP authentication to ensure the security and accuracy of the information being updated. It is advised that candidates carefully verify the correctness of their bank account number and IFSC code before final submission as modifications post-submission will not be permissible.

To access the bank details update link, candidates can visit their respective regional RRB websites. This final opportunity aims to streamline the refund process and ensure that eligible candidates receive their dues in a timely manner, resolving any existing issues relating to incorrect bank information.

This proactive step by RRB underscores the organization’s commitment to transparency and efficiency in handling candidate transactions and refunds, enhancing the overall experience for applicants seeking employment opportunities through RRB examinations.
