To send a remittance via a Piraeus Bank branch declare the details of the remittance to the branch. The clerk will ask you for the recipient's details:

• Bank account and bank
• The beneficiary’s full name or company name

No. Instant credit transfers/remittances are only available for credit transfers/remittances within Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA).

The payment is not completed, and you may initiate a new transaction using a different priority.

You can prior verify the beneficiary’s details, regardless of the credit transfer/remittance priority, before submitted your orders, provided that the credit transfer/remittance is within the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA). The verification result is informative and is provided by the beneficiary’s bank if the bank supports the service.

Whether the credit transfer/remittance is scheduled for a future date or is set up as a recurring transaction on a specific day each month, the beneficiary verification takes place when you enter the beneficiary details, not on the execution date.

The verification is performed by checking whether the IBAN matches the beneficiary’s full name/ business name or other identifier details (e.g. Tax ID).

Once you fill in the beneficiary’s details, a verification check is performed. Within a few seconds, your bank informs you of the verification result received from the beneficiary’s bank.

The verification result can be:

• Beneficiary Match: The beneficiary’s bank verifies the matching of the IBAN with the beneficiary customer you submitted.
• Close Beneficiary Match: The beneficiary’s bank verifies close matching of the IBAN with the beneficiary customer you submitted.
• No Beneficiary Match: Τhe beneficiary’s bank does not verify the matching of the IBAN with the beneficiary customer you submitted.
  

There is also the possibility that the verification cannot be completed due to technical issues or because the beneficiary’s bank does not provide this service (Verification check not possible).

No, it is free of charge.

If the verification check of the IBAN with the beneficiary’s name/ other identifying elements is not verified, you have the option whether to proceed with or to cancel your transaction in order to contact the beneficiary and confirm his/ her details.
