So, I can read my statement online. I wonder why PNB does not require that I have a functioning Personal computer with screen reader installed on it and with active internet connection! and also that I ensure nobody spies on me when I use such a gadget to read my statement!
And, yes, even if I don't have a voice-enabled mobile and ask anyone to read out the messages, they cannot know anything but the amount of transaction and date thereof. It is not possible to forge card details from it. My friends, give up the habit of "My country, write or wrong", and do not justify any arbitrary conditions merely because your own institution prescribes them, or they are high-sounding technological gadgets which we want to make compulsory.
