Once blocked, you will receive a confirmation message on your registered mobile number and email. Note that a blocked card cannot be reactivated. SBI will send a replacement card to your registered address, which usually costs ₹100 plus GST. Blocking a card does not close your entire credit account; it only blocks that particular card.
Also, you can complete this process through SBI’s YONO app, which is even faster and more convenient.
