NBCRFLI Banking Details

The NBCRFLI opened accounts with the four major banking institutions in South Africa in order to overcome the challenge of delayed transfers across banks as well as to ensure that all income received is easily allocated.

This new process has been extremely beneficial for the Council and its members as it has reduced unallocated income which ultimately reduces unnecessary enforcement. It has also helped to eliminate incorrect allocation and invalid refunds. The quick allocation of income ensures that employee funds are allocated correctly and available for pay-outs.

We appeal to all members to deposit all payments into the Council's account which is held at the same banking institution as yours. It is also essential that the reference which you use is allocated for your employer.
