The way we do banking is no longer same. It has undergone a sea of changes. Now, thanks to video KYC, we can open a full-fledged savings account from the comforts of your home without visiting your bank. Kotak Bank was the first bank to introduce video KYC for their Kotak 811 customers. After you complete the video KYC process, the bank will open a full-fledged Kotak 811 with no limits within a few hours.
If you have opened a Kotak 811 through video KYC, here are some things that you need to take care to make the best use of your account.
After the account is opened, you will receive a mail and SMS on your registered email id and phone number containing your account details such as your account number, Customer Relationship Number (CRN) and IFSC code. Keep these details handy for future reference. You can also know your CRN by sending an SMS. Type CRN and send the message to 9971056767 from your bank registered mobile number and you will get your CRN.
Mobile banking apps have made banking on our fingertips. You can carry out all your banking requirements through the bank’s official banking app.
