Banks regularly run scheduled maintenance to provide better net banking services to their customers. Before the maintenance operation is done in a timely manner, most Indian banks send an alert to their customers through their social media platforms. What banks inform their customers with this warning is that they schedule a specific day and time for maintenance work, as well as services that will be unavailable for the duration of the task.
As a result, the largest lender in the country, State Bank of India (SBI), will undertake a scheduled maintenance task on February 20, 2022, which would enable the bank to complete the scheduled maintenance within a set time of 11:30 p.m. on February 19. 2022. and 02:00 on February 20, 2022. This operation may result in the deployment of a specialist for technological upgrade work carried out within the time limits, resulting in security checks, improvements, regular maintenance of services bank’s digital banking.
SBI informed its customers via Twitter that “We ask our valued customers to support us as we strive to provide a better banking experience. We will be undertaking a technology upgrade between 11:30 p.m. on February 19, 2022 and 02:00 a.m. on February 20, 2022.
