August is a month of festivals. Due to many festivals, public holidays are available this month. Therefore, postponing bank work during this period may lead to difficulties, especially for customers who need cash transactions or services like check clearing. It is extremely important for them to complete banking transactions at the beginning of August.
Since banks will be closed for almost 15 days throughout the month, there may be disruptions in financial transactions. Therefore, customers should complete important tasks such as depositing checks and preparing DDs promptly. Digital banking services such as mobile banking, internet banking, and ATM services will continue to operate regularly.
