Hi, I am Nanne Parmar, and I have been working since 2018 in digital banking. I am sharing this guide with you to provide a step-by-step process. Here, I will cover how to unlock it furthermore, if you are facing issues while opening it, I will tell you how to fix it.

Before jumping to unlocking the PDF statement process, here I am sharing a little introduction about BOB Statement and also why it is password protected. Let’s begin the guide with the first question –

What is the Bank of Maharashtra E-statement?

Bank of Maharashtra (BOM) is the largest nationalized bank in Maharashtra state. In June 2023, The bank served 30 million customers through 2,260 branches around India. For customer comfort, The BOM provides easy-to-manage monthly statements for account holders.

You can request a physical statement directly to your registered home address. However, it has a Rs. 50 charges for physical copies. But, for free and fast, register your email ID with the bank when you open an account in the Bank of Maharashtra.

The bank will provide you with a digital version of your account statement each month. It is quite a good option to choose because it is free, fast, and secure with a password as well.

If you already have a bank account with the Bank of Maharashtra and are not getting Monthly statements in your email, here is what you can do:

• You have to download the BOM Mahabank mobile banking app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
• Once the app, open it and log in using the user ID and password. (If you are using it for the first time, register it by using the account number and customer ID)
• After logging in, on the home screen, navigate to the service request and tap on the “Activate statement on E-mail” option.
• Fill out the complete form with information like account number, nominee, DOB and more.
• Tap on submit to activate.

Once it is activated, you will start getting an e-statement each month. Let’s move to the next and main question – how can you find the statement PDF and unlock it easily?

How to Open Your BOM Statement PDF

1. First, open your email inbox and find out last month’s BOM statement email.
2. Open the statement email and scroll down to the end. Here, you get your PDF File.
3. Tap on the save button to download it on your device.
4. To open it, go to the downloads folder in the file manager and tap on the downloaded statement.
5. Enter the Password: To unlock the statement PDF, the BOM bank uses an 8-character-long password. It combines the first four characters of your name (all lowercase) and the date and month of your birth (in DDMM format). Let me give you an example: Your name is Raju Chandak, and your DOB is 01/10/1990 So, the password will be raju0110.

If your name has less than four letters, then use “X” to fill up the blank spaces. For Example –

• Name: Ram
• Date of Birth: 15/08/2000
• Password: ramx1508

Note: please read the full statement email received from Mahabank. The BOM Bank also provides up-to-date instructions for opening the pdf file. Furthermore, it also includes Maha Bank customer care numbers to help if you are facing issues while accessing it.

Fix Common Issues

Sometimes, entering the password is not enough if you find issues or errors while downloading and opening a PDF statement. So here are a few tips to fix it. –

1. Password Incorrect: Make sure to double-check the password while entering it, sometimes, the first letter can be capitalised, make sure all letters are small and the DOB is in DDMM format only.
2. Downloading failed: If you are getting failed notifications, please check your email storage space and phone storage space, then download it again.
3. Different device and PDF Reader: If the PDF shows an error and does not open. Try to use different PDF readers like Google Chrome PDF Viewer for desktops and Adobe PDF Reader for Android and iOS Devices. Also, try to use a different phone or laptop.
4. Not Getting Emails: if you are not receiving emails from BOM. Please check the SPAM folder of your email account. If you are still not getting it, contact the bank via BOM Bank’s official website customer care page.
