Sberbank (Kyiv) from April 14 cancelled all the previously established temporary limits for cash and non-cash transactions on card accounts of individuals in the national and foreign currencies.
“Starting from this date, cash withdrawal, payments in trade and service networks and the Internet, as well as money transfers to other accounts and cards will be carried out without any restrictions on the amount,” the financial institution said on its website.
However, several Sberbank clients told Interfax-Ukraine the bank, being under sale, temporarily blocked cards, whose owners have not heeded the request of the financial institution and have not updated their personal data.
Sberbank (formerly PJSC Subsidiary Bank of Sberbank of Russia, Bank NRB) was founded in 2001. Its sole owner is Sberbank of Russia.
