You all must know that we can earn very good money by referring other people to PhonePe. There was a time when my friends and I got a lot of cash back by referring other people to the PhonePe App and those were our pocket money.

Unable To Add Bank Account in PhonePe App
You must know that we can make money transfer, bank balance check, recharge, bill payment or ticket booking through these apps like PhonePe, Paytm, Google Pay. But for all this, we need PhonePe UPI.
With this UPI we can do everything easily in a moment. UPI has some rules like we can’t send a lot of money through UPI if we want. We cannot do more than 10 UPI transactions from one bank’s UPI in one day. On the other hand, I can’t send more than 100,000 rupees in a whole day.
We can link many Bank Accounts together in our PhonePe App. In this case, keep in mind that we can link all the banks that are connected to a mobile.
But still, in many cases, we have to face the ‘unable to add a bank account in PhonePe App problem’. But what is the reason?
In my opinion, this is because many of us come to get cashback in the same PhonePe App to create many accounts or repeatedly log out. If you are facing this unable to add a bank account in the PhonePe App problem then I will tell you to try to clear data and clear cache in your PhonePe App and then open it. If that doesn’t work, try uninstalling and installing PhonePe. Maybe your problem will be solved.
