Some rules related to rent, security, and nomination of bank locker facilities have been changed. This rule is going to be implemented in the country's top banks like SBI, ICICI, HDFC, and PNB. Let us understand the details of charges among all these banks and how much more money will have to be paid now.

Keep this in mind

Banks provide bank locker facilities to different categories of customers, such as personal customers, partnership firms, limited companies, clubs, etc. However, banks do not allocate lockers in the name of minors. Banks act as a kind of lessee for their customers, in which locker service is provided based on annual rent.

From a security point of view, banks ensure that the protection of customers' valuables is much more secure than their fees. Let us tell you that they are not responsible for the safety of cash kept in the bank. So keep this in mind while keeping the goods.

Rent will vary according to location.
