SBI Schedules Maintenance on September 7: Online Banking, YONO to Remain Unavailable

The State Bank of India (SBI) has issued an alert to its customers regarding a planned service outage on September 7, 2025. Due to scheduled maintenance activities, several of the bank’s digital services, including internet banking and the YONO app, will be temporarily unavailable. According to SBI, the downtime is necessary to upgrade its systems for improved security and better customer experience. While ATM and point-of-sale transactions are expected to function normally, online services such as YONO, UPI, and mobile banking will face interruptions during the maintenance window. The bank has advised customers to complete urgent transactions in advance to avoid inconvenience. Notifications have been sent out through SMS, email, and official social media handles to ensure maximum awareness. Experts suggest that such upgrades are part of routine banking operations to strengthen digital infrastructure, especially as the demand for online financial services continues to grow. SBI, being the country’s largest lender, handles millions of digital transactions daily. The scheduled outage underlines the importance of preparedness for digital banking users. Customers are encouraged to plan their payments, transfers, and bill settlements ahead of time to avoid last-minute issues.
