Hey @NIYOCOMM202504109H62 As discussed during the call, your name will be printed on the card as per your Aadhar and PAN. We are coordinating with the tech team about the name change option. :handshake:

Once we receive any updates from them, we’ll be sure to get back to you. :blush:

Team,
How much morentime do I have to wait for the team to get back?
I guess itbwill be better if you tell me the process to close the account.

Hi @NIYOCOMM202504109H62,

We understand your concern. As informed earlier, as per SBM Bank’s policy, only the first and last names (as per Aadhaar and PAN) are printed on the card. We see that your name, as per your PAN and Aadhar, is visible on your card. This process is managed directly by the bank. However, we’ve also noted your feedback and will share it with our management. :innocent:


For account closure, please write to global@goniyo.com from your registered email with the subject line ā€œI want to close my SBM savings account,ā€ and we’ll assist you further.

Hey @NIYOCOMM202504109H62

Thank you for reaching out. We’ve noted your ticket ID 147373 and have already forwarded your request to the bank for further action. :folded_hands: Please be assured that we’re closely following up on this and will keep you informed of all further updates through the same ticket ID.
