Central Bank changes rules to pay forgotten money and discloses new calendar

The Central Bank will change the payment method for money forgotten in banks, which is being released through the Values ​​Receivable System. As of Monday (28), those who have not yet made the withdrawal will have new deadlines and a new calendar to withdraw.

Payment will run from March 28 to April 16. The release will continue to be made according to the citizen’s birthday or the company’s opening date, but from now on, there will be a full day to have access to the money. Before, it was just a specific time on a day scheduled by the Central Bank.

On Saturdays in April, the 2nd, 9th and 16th, the citizen will be able to do the recap, if he has not withdrawn the amounts on the scheduled date for his year or year of opening of his company.

According to the Central Bank, after the conclusion of this new cycle of appointments, as of April 17, there will be a new reformulation of the system. The period of changes will last until the beginning of more. From the 2nd, there will be the opening of new consultations.

Among the changes that will come into effect in May are the end of the money transfer schedule. “Citizens can ask for the redemption of resources at the time of the first consultation”, says the monetary authority.
