Bank of baroda saying aadhar mandatory.

[telescope]

Well folks, today went to nearest branch for opening super savings account. I was told that aadhar is mandatory. I said I am giving passport, voter id along with pan, but they are not ready to listen to me.

Well if you ask me why not opening online, I did try to but it is giving error that mobile number and adhar mobile number is not same. But actually it is same.

Also my adhar address is of different city so not willing to give it.

Why are these psu banks so difficult to deal with?

Tell them you'll file a complaint with Ombudsman. RBI rules state which documents can be accepted https://www.rbi.org.in/CommonPerson/english/scripts/notification.aspx?id=2607

If they don't comply after this you can file a complaint. They themselves will call you and ask you to open account after that.

Aadhaar is not mandatory for bank account

Adhaar and pan are mandatory documents for banks. You can use different documents for identity and address proof purpose. But you need to disclose adhaar and pan no.

Actually last week I went to the same branch and asked about super savings account and sapphire dc, that same guy said pan and passport is enough. Today he is saying "it's impossible that I said without aadhar is possible". I tried to remind him about the discussion I had with him about super savings account but he was again adamant saying "that must not be me, I don't recognise you, never talked to you, or maybe if I talked to you I told you about about adhar but you didn't hear properly".

Such blatant lies.

The Aadhaar confusion | Four years on, some banks yet to honour Supreme Court’s Aadhaar verdict

The Supreme Court ruled in September 2018 that it is not mandatory for citizens to furnish an Aadhaar number for opening bank accounts if they are not availing of government subsidies. Moneycontrol investigated whether the order is being honoured. Here is what we found

www.moneycontrol.com

Aadhaar not mandatory yet organisations pose it as a mandatory document

While Aadhaar is a preferred KYC document for opening bank accounts, the majority of bank executive calls it a mandatory document and ask for a photocopy of the same. The same goes for obtaining a mobile SIM.

Funny thing is aadhar is not even a valid proof of citizenship while passport voter id is and these morons insist on it.

You might not use adhaar for address proof. Buy they will use it to for biometric verification. This is to tackle fraud & identity theft. There is no problem if you address is different.

Even though in 2018 sc said it's not mandatory but for all practical purpose it is. Good luck opening an account without disclosing adhaar or pan no. Even if you dont share technically they still can access it (but not the biometric part). Your pan and adhaar are linked. And they also access cersai data which is linked to our adhaar and pan no.

See u right and wrong.
Right yes aadhar is not mandatory as per say
But it is one of doc required.
Even though financial identity is through pan card
And Social scheme & identification through aadhar

But via passport u can support your claim for address

Aadhaar being online can be validate person in seconds

Since pan & aadar is linked there should be no disdane but banks are banks & employee are dumbshits

Or try another branch

Biometric is also not compulsory. It is for aadhaar verification, which is not even needed if you don't provide Aadhaar.

I consider it to be a matter of personal principle.

I'll take this up with rbi bo if pno doesn't help. Let rbi tell me that adhar is mandatory.

Any specific use case of not providing aadhar?

 

[psmangat5]

I never asked for Aadhar Mandatorily, only this you would not be able to get subsidy without aadhar. every other thing is possible.
