We consider it better to keep many important and valuable things in a bank locker rather than keeping them at home. This is done due to security reasons. Actually, the things kept in the bank locker are completely safe, the responsibility for which is taken by the bank itself. If something happens to the locker and your belongings are damaged, the bank also gives you compensation. In such a situation, we become careless by keeping valuable things in the locker.
Have you ever wondered what would happen if a customer loses his bank locker key? This question may increase your anxiety. Actually, whenever we take a locker in the bank, we get its key, which we should keep safely. However, if this key is lost then there is no need to worry too much. The bank has clear rules for this situation…
What to do if you lose your keys?
If the key of your bank locker is lost, then in this situation you have to first inform the bank. For this you can contact the bank manager by visiting the bank branch or through phone. It is very important to give this information to the bank, so that misuse of the locker can be avoided.
Information has to be given in writing
If you lose the key of the bank locker, you have to inform the bank in writing. In this, you have to give locker number, branch name and other important information to the bank in writing. Along with this, a report of loss of keys has to be lodged at the police station, a copy of this report has to be given to the bank.
Then the locker opens like this
After this process is completed, the bank contacts the locker opening experts to get a new key for your locker. After this the locker is broken safely and a new key is made. The locker holder has to remain present during this process, so that transparency is maintained. The thing to keep in mind here is that after losing the key, the customer has to bear the cost of breaking the locker and getting a new key made. Banks are not responsible for this.
