Transferred Money to Wrong UPI ID? Act Fast, Here's How to Recover It!

  • If money is sent to the wrong UPI ID, act immediately as recovery is possible but depends on quick action and receiver consent.
  • First, verify transaction details in your UPI app, then raise a complaint directly within the app.
  • Immediately contact your bank with transaction details; they will request a reversal from the recipient's bank.
  • Attempt to contact the recipient directly if possible, as many cases are resolved through their cooperation.
  • If unresolved, escalate the complaint to your bank's grievance cell, then NPCI, and finally the Reserve Bank of India Banking Ombudsman.

Why It Matters: Act quickly and follow the steps to increase your chances of recovering money sent to the wrong UPI ID.
