Banks and the four major operators agreed to tag calls.
As reported by the Ministry of Digital Development, in the near future all calls from banks will be flagged: the name of the credit institution will appear on the smartphone screen, and not unknown numbers. For each such call, the banks will have to pay the operator - a measure introduced as part of the fight against fraudsters.
Although there were no agreements, there was a risk that the operators would start blocking calls from the banks, and it already started yesterday. Banks feared that explicit labeling would lead customers to be more active in blocking such calls or refusing to communicate at all.
