So many passwords to remember these days... ooofff !!!!!
Many a times it so happens that you enter a wrong password consecutively 5 times at the HDFC bank Netbanking site & your account gets locked. Now you have 2 problems - your NetBanking access locked out & also that you have forgotten your password. The Banks standard procedure calls for filling an application form at the Branch to re-enable your account & also re-generate a new password.
I have discovered a simple workaround with which you use the power of Net to both re-enable your account & re-generate a new password.
(My site statistics show that this is one of my most successful posts in my Blog.
I would feel nice if you could comment on this post after successfully unlocking your HDFC Bank NetBanking Account. This would inspire me to write more.)
The procedure is as follows
2. ) Select the Radio Button "I am a customer of the bank and have a query / Clarification on a transaction / Product".
3. ) Now under the section "What is the query about?" section select "Assistance with NetBanking Service".
4. ) Now under the section "Kindly classify your request:" select "Access Denied - Enable access to NetBanking" & then click on submit.
5.)In the following screen fill up all your details - Customer ID, First Name, Last Name, E-mail ID.
Now comes the most important trick - select the check box "Yes I remember my IPIN and just need re-activation of the same.".
6.)Though this may sound funny, since you don't remeber your IPIN (NetBanking Password), but do this as suggested by me. And then click submit.
After almost 24 hours visit the NetBanking page & under the "Whats New" section on the right hand side, click on the link for "Forgot Your IPIN (password), click here to generate instantly".
Now just follow the steps & re-generate a new IPIN.
Simple... isn't it ? So never ever worry again if you have a locked HDFC Bank NetBanking account & have forgotten your password :)
