Wrong UPI Payment Refund Process: While transferring money from UPI, sometimes by entering the wrong account number, money gets transferred to the wrong account. Due to the increasing trend of Internet banking, such problems are increasing. If you have made a mistake in UPI or net banking and sent money to the wrong account, then follow the steps given below.

Let me tell you that if money is transferred to the wrong account by mistake, you can get it back within 48 hours. For this, you just have to call a number or complain online and then go to your bank to complete the process. Note that you have to make this complaint within 3 days of sending the money. As per RBI instructions, if you send money by mistake, you can get a refund within 48 hours. Come, and let us know about this process.
