Federal Bank has launched another digital service called Missed Call Banking, a simple way to get account balance on mobile.

The service enables customers to get their account balance by giving a missed call to a dedicated mobile number. To avail the facility, customers have to do a onetime registration by sending an SMS (ACTBAL<space>14 Digit account number) to 9895088888 from their mobile number registered with the bank.

Upon successful registration, the customer will receive an instant confirmation message. Thereafter, a simple missed call to 8431900900 will be enough to get the account balance instantly through SMS. This service is free and available 24X7.

Being SMS-based, the Missed Call Banking service can be availed by all customers. It is not essential to have a smart phone or a high end devise as any mobile handset will do. Also there is no need for internet connection, K A Babu, Head-Retail Business said.
