SBI offers seven types of ATM-cum-debit cards to its customers. Depending upon the variant of the card, the daily cash withdrawal limit ranges from ₹20,000 to ₹1 lakh.
In September last year, SBI had informed credit and debit cardholders that if they make international transactions and want to continue the services, then they will have to send a message on a given number. As per RBI’s new rules for debit and credit cards, banks will have to offer customers a facility to activate online transactions, international or overseas transactions and contactless transactions. The services will not be activated till the users enable them.
