Debit cards are great they allow us to pay and withdraw money whenever we need it. But if you have lost your card then the balance you have in your bank account is in danger. So as soon as you realize that you have lost the ATM Card or debit card. You should block it immediately. And this guide is for those customers of the Yes Bank who have lost the card and want to block it.
Yes Bank allows you to block the card and again unblock the card if you have found it back. So this is a good option for customers like you and me. If you feel you have simply misplaced the card at your place and you will find it soon. Then you can block it for now and then you can unblock it later once the card is with you. But once your card is blocked by the bank you will not be able to use it anymore unless you unblock it.
