What are the account validation and activation processes?
The account validation process is undertaken to prevent any misuse of your
account. It ensures that only the account holder can use this facility. The
validation and activation processes involve the following steps:
|
A nominal amount in cents
is debited and credited to your account by HDFC Bank. |
|
Quickremit
intimates you by e-mail that the test debit and credit amount has been
initiated to your account. |
|
You must refer to your
Bank Statement for the exact amount that is debited and credited. |
|
When you log on to Quickremit,
your transaction status will show, "Click to Verify".You
need to enter the exact amount in the space provided. |
|
If the details match the
actual transactions carried out by us, your account is activated. |
|
|
My bank account has been posted with account validation entries. However, I cannot enter the same on the website. What should I do?
Account validation entries are posted to your bank account on the 2nd or 3rd working day after you complete the one-time registration for online transfers. We e-mail you on the 3rd working day outlining details of the account validation process, subsequent to which you can enter the amount on the website. We request you to wait for our e-mail with details and then make entries on the website.

Why do I see "Money in Clearing" on the Online Tracker when my account has already been debited?
Though it is a Direct Debit transaction, we do not receive the credit immediately and hence the status may read as "Funds in Clearing". This status notification changes as soon as we receive the money. However, there is no delay in sending your remittance to the recipient in India.
|
|
What type of US bank accounts can be used for online transfers?
For online transfers, you can use an individual Checking Account or an individual
Savings Account with a US bank affiliated to the ACH network.
