How To Change Registered Mobile Number For SBI Freedom Mobile Banking Application?

Hi friends,

I'm Sujoy,and I'm back to blogging after a long time. Today I'm writing this post about a problem which happened with me and how I solved that. I'm using SBI Freedom Mobile Banking since last 3 years. But recently I've changed my mobile number and I also updated that in my SBI A/c by written application to my branch.

But the problem started when I tried using SBI Freedom application on my old phone with new SIM. It was working fine with the old SIM on that phone just before inserting the new SIM. And when I tried opening the app with my old user name,it opened. But while trying to do any transactions,it gave me errors- Your A/c is not enabled for transactions over GPRS,go to setting and enable it. When I tried doing the same,it asked for MPIN and gave me message- GPRS Activation In Progress,You'll Be Notified When It Activates. But nothing happend. Sometimes I also got message like- Error code 915,wrong MPIN etc.

So,how to fix it? In short,the process is to deregister the old number,and re-register from the new number. But,how to do it?

DEREGISTRATION PROCESS FOR SBI MOBILE BANKING (SBI FREEDOM)-
==========================================================
There are 3 processes for deregistration of the old number.

1. SMS SDEREG to 9223440000 from your old SIM. You will receive a message “User de registered successfully”.

2. Run the application on your phone with the old sim,and go to settings,and click on de-register,and follow the procedure.

3. Contact your branch for deregistration.


NEW REGISTRATION PROCESS FOR SBI MOBILE BANKING (SBI FREEDOM)-
==============================================================
After you have successfully deregistered your old number. Type a message MBSREG on your new sim and send it to 9223440000. You'll get a new User ID & MPIN by sms. Now,open the SBI Freedom Mobile app,and login using new User ID. Change the MPIN you received by going to settings,and click on Change MPIN. Enter the MPIN you just got via sms in Old MPIN field and enter your new MPIN twice. Note down this new MPIN,you'll require this MPIN along with the User ID for all your transactions using this application.

Now,you'll get an sms stating that verification from handset is complete,now you have to register your new mobile number to use the service. You can do it in 3 ways.

1. Go to nearest SBI ATM,enter your card and go to Mobile Banking Registration,enter your mobile number and follow the procedure.

2. If you have net banking activated,you can register your new mobile number using it. Just go to e-Services > SBI Freedom and Click on Registration. Enter the newly received User ID and your current MPIN.

3. Visit your nearest SBI branch and register your new number for Mobile Banking.

HOW TO CHANGE BEARER SETTING TO GPRS IN SBI FREEDOM-
===================================================
One final setting to do. Go to Settings,click on Change Channel and select GPRS. And follow the procedures. You may have to enter your current MPIN.
