Planning to surrender SBI debit card? State Bank of India ATM users must know this

SBI alert: Amid rising fears of online debit or credit card frauds, especially the card cloning, the State Bank of India (SBI) has come up with the various facilities where an SBI debit care user can execute card-less cash withdrawal from the SBI ATMs. This could become easier after the launch of SBI Yono Card. In such a scenario, an SBI customer might wonder as to why he or she is holding an SBI debit card when they can withdraw cash without using their SBI debit card. For such customers, there are two strong reasons that can force an SBI debit cardholder of thinking against dumping or surrendering the SBI ATM card. 

First, cash withdrawal with the help of SBI Yono app is currently limited. If you want to rely solely on card-less cash withdrawal facility through YONO platform, you should know that cash can be collected only at select ATMs (YONO Cash Points -YCP). "The account holder can withdraw money from select State Bank ATMs which are enabled for ‘YONO Cash’ functionality (YCPs)," SBI said in response to a query on Quora few months ago. Second, the use of ATM cards is your discretion. SBI says, "Customers may surrender their ATM cards as the usage of the same is their individual discretion."
