- use the remote online payment tool, which is currently offered to their clients by six agent banks of the Fund: Privatbank, Ukrgasbank, Sens Bank, Pivdenny Bank, PUMB and Tascombank; submit an application through the Deposit Refund service in the Diya mobile application and receive compensation to an account in one of the following agent banks: Privatbank, Ukrgasbank, PUMB, Universalbank, Idea Bank.
To get the service in Action:
- update the mobile application to the latest version; log in; open the Services – Deposit Refund section; select the bankrupt bank in which you had an account and submit an application for compensation. If the money was kept in several banks, applications are submitted separately; select the ePidtrimka card to which the funds will be received. The account must be in the Fund's agent bank, which is a participant in the service. Or you can open a new “ePidtrimka” card in one of the Fund's agent banks in the application in a few clicks; specify contact information for communication; check the application; sign the application with “Diya.Signature”.
