What will change regarding UPI from August 1?
According to the changes going to be made regarding UPI from next month, from August 1, you will not be able to check the balance on your PhonePe or Paytm again and again. You will have to change some habits, otherwise there will be problems in online payment related work. From August 1, any user will be able to check his balance only 50 times a day.
This limit is enough for a common user. Many users keep their payments in auto mode. For example, Netflix subscription, SIP money or electricity-water bills are also put on autopay. This will also now happen at a fixed time. According to reports, authorization and debit processing for all autopay services will be possible only during non-peak hours. All this exercise is being done to reduce the load on the network so that UPI payment related facilities do not crash. NPCI has clearly said that banks and payment apps will have to follow these rules. These changes also include deactivation of UPI IDs associated with inactive mobile numbers.
Recharge inactive number
If the mobile number linked to your UPI ID is inactive for more than 90 days, then your UPI ID can be closed. This step is being taken to make the transactions done through UPI safe and fast. In such a situation, if your mobile number linked to UPI is not active for a long time, then get your number recharged.
What if you want to change the number linked to UPI?
If you want to change the phone number linked to your UPI ID, then first of all you have to contact your bank. Once you change the number linked to your bank account, you will be able to link your new number to UPI.
