SBI Ordered to Refund Losses in Two Cases of Unauthorized Debit Card Transactions
Two senior citizens faced financial losses due to unauthorized transactions involving their SBI debit cards. In Delhi, a consumer commission ordered SBI to refund over Rs 11,600 and pay compensation after a card was allegedly swapped at an ATM. In Kerala, the High Court directed SBI to refund Rs 3.73 lakh to a retired principal following cyber fraud, noting the bank's failure to act despite prompt complaint. Both cases highlight issues of bank liability and customer protection in electronic transactions.
