In the digital age, the value of mobile technology has grown significantly, particularly in the context of banking and finance. With mobile devices, you receive instant notifications via email or SMS for any transactions in your account, allowing you to take immediate action to stop any unauthorized activity.
Not only do you get banking alerts on your phone, but you also receive important updates regarding your pension or Provident Fund (PF) accounts. For members of the Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO), it is crucial to keep the phone number linked to your PF account active. This is because the OTP (One-Time Password) required for accessing services through the Umang App or website is sent to this number.
However, it is common for the phone number linked to a PF account to become inactive. If this happens, you could miss out on vital information. Additionally, you won't be able to make changes to your account on your own. To update your PF account with a new number, you must first ensure your phone number is current. Fortunately, this can be done from the comfort of your home.
