Do you have your bank account in NIC Asia bank? If yes, this article is definitely for you.
NIC Asia bank has started to provide Video KYC (V-KYC) services to its customers where they can update their KYC details through a video call with the bank.
Every banking customer needs to update their Know-Your-Customer (KYC) details. The customer fills up the KYC form right at the time of opening an account at the bank. KYC details contain your name, bank account number, address, citizenship, and other identity documents, and most importantly, your mobile number.
If you have changed your mobile number, you must inform your bank to change the registered mobile number so as to enjoy mobile banking services.
Before video KYC, customers had to visit the bank on their own and submit the details on a paper form. Now after the introduction of video KYC, they can submit and update their KYC details from anywhere comfortable.
In accordance with its long-term strategy of becoming a ‘Digital First Bank‘, NIC Asia Bank has also started making it possible to update the KYC details of customer dignitaries through Video KYC (V-KYC).
