If you have an account with the bank which you have not used for a long time now. Then the bank might change the status of the account to dormant. In this guide, I will tell you the process to reactivate Punjab and Sind Bank Dormant Account.
This happens when you don’t use your bank account to make any transactions for 24 months and more. And the banks do this for the safety of the account holders only. This thing has to be done to avoid the misuse of the accounts which are not being used by the account holders.
If you had any balance in your account before it turned dormant. Then there is no need to worry about it. The balance will be safe in your account. And if you wish you can withdraw it once your account is reactivated by the bank.
