What should I do if I submitted my payment order incorrectly?
If you have sent a payment more than once, i.e. in duplicate, we recommend that you directly contact the recipient you know, this is the fastest way to handle the refund of the duplicate payment.
In case you submitted a payment order with due date on the following day, you can simply cancel or modify it in your internet banking.
Maybe the submitted account does not exist. In this case, your money will be automatically refunded in 2 or 3 business days.
What about a payment transferred to someone else’s account? In case the recipient’s account is in KB, we will contact him or her via email and internet banking message and ask to return the payment.
In case of bank transfers to an account of another bank, we will contact the bank ask for assistance in the matter. The relevant bank must contact its client and ask the client to return the given amount.
In practice, you will need to complete an application form relating to the refund of wrongly credited amount. We will then forward the application form to the receiving bank. In most cases, the incorrect recipient returns the payment.
If you need advice, you can call our Contact Center - i.e. for English-speaking clients the line: 955 551 556.
