How to block SBI ATM Card by Number, SMS, Mobile App, Online Internet Banking

If you have lost your State Bank of India (SBI) debit card, you should first block it to prevent unauthorized use. Someone could use your card to make withdrawals from your account. You can check your account to see if your card has been used since it was lost.

To block your SBI debit card, you can call SBI customer service at 1800 11 2211 or 1800 425 3800. You will need to provide your registered mobile number and other personal information to verify your identity. Once your identity has been verified, the customer service representative will block your card for you.

You can also block your SBI debit card by sending an SMS to 567676. The message should be in the following format:

BLOCK XXXX

where XXXX are the last four digits of your debit card number.

Finally, you can also block your SBI debit card through internet banking or mobile banking. To do this, you will need to log in to your SBI account and follow the instructions on the website or app.
