Bank of Baroda after the amalgamation
Bank of Baroda statements are usually protected with the date of birth as DDMMYYYY — 18 November 1983 gives 18111983. If that is refused, the four-digit DDMM form and the first-four-letters-plus-DDMM pattern are both reported, as is the customer ID.
Bank of Baroda absorbed Vijaya Bank and Dena Bank, and accounts that came across kept records from their original systems. Customers of those banks occasionally find that the date of birth held on file is the one captured at the original account opening rather than anything updated since.
Statements are issued through bob World, the mobile app, and through internet banking, with the same rule generally reported for both. Where the statement arrived as an emailed e-statement, the covering message carries the definitive rule.
As everywhere, a file forwarded by a third party may have been re-protected by that sender, in which case no Bank of Baroda format will open it.
For NRI account holders, Bank of Baroda statements are issued through the same channels but the date of birth on file is typically the one from the passport submitted at onboarding. Where a passport shows only a year, or shows 1 January as a placeholder, that placeholder is what the password is built from — an odd-looking date that nonetheless works.
Current accounts held by firms and companies have no personal date of birth to draw on. Those statements are usually issued unprotected, and where one is protected the password was set by whoever configured the mandate rather than generated by the bank.
bob World, the mobile app, and the internet banking portal both deliver statements, and where the file arrived as an emailed e-statement the covering message states the rule for that specific file. That message outranks any general guide.
What a Bank of Baroda statement looks like
Bank of Baroda absorbed Vijaya Bank and Dena Bank, so older statements may carry a legacy branch or account format.
