Retirees and retirees who collect their salary through a bank usually have to do a survival procedure or proof of life. Before the pandemic, this step was completed in person or via a debit card purchase at nearby stores. During the confinement period it was suspended, and in the post-pandemic, however, this process began to take place virtually. Now there are more and more entities joining to ask for it more.
This Monday, customers of the Supervielle bank join the list of pensioners or pensioners who will no longer have to present it. In this way, customers up to 74 years of age are exempt from having to prove their existence in life to collect their goods.
“With this initiative, they are making it easier for nearly 450,000 seniors and is part of a progressive plan to streamline the collection process for more and more beneficiaries,” the agency said in a statement.
On Wednesday, Santander Bank, an entity that has also added benefits to the package it already offers for this age group, joined the ranks of banks that stopped asking for proof of life.
“The benefits of the Senior Account are accessed by all people who collect their pension assets in the Entity”, The entity said through a statement last week. And he added: “Fully discounted accounts and packages, savings in pharmacies, supermarkets, car insurance, low rates for personal loans and a telephone line with priority attention, among others.”
For new departing customers to collect their pension with Santander they will receive a welcome $5,000 in your new account for once.
