HDFC Bank has launched mobile banking service on SMS for Reliance IndiaMobile customers, which will enable customers to see their account balance, get mini statements, fixed deposit details and make requests for cheque books.
The customers can also make requests for stop cheque payment and account statements, even as they are able to make bill payments by direct debit to the account from mobile handsets, HDFC Bank said in a release on Tuesday.
Reliance Infocomm President (Applications and Solutions Group) Mahesh Prasad said: "This would further strengthen our offerings of payment and mobile commerce applications over the mobile phone."
The customers would be able to do banking transactions by sending an SMS code to 1234, he said.
