Overview
- ING Bank has introduced a default €2000 daily transfer limit for all Giro and Extra accounts via online banking and its mobile app.
- Customers can adjust their daily or one-time transfer limits, but increases only take effect after a mandatory four-hour delay to prevent impulsive transactions.
- Transfers from Extra accounts to pre-designated reference accounts remain exempt from the delay, ensuring faster processing for these transactions.
- The measures aim to protect customers from fraud schemes such as phishing and shock calls, which exploit rapid, high-value transfers.
- ING continues to advise customers to safeguard their personal credentials and never share login details, even with individuals claiming to be bank employees.
