To delete or deactivate your UPI ID, you must generally delink the associated bank account from your UPI application. As UPI IDs are linked to bank accounts, removing the account deactivates the ID. The process usually involves:
- Going to 'UPI & Payment Settings' or 'Bank Accounts' in your app.
- Selecting the specific bank account.
- Tapping 'Remove' or 'Delink Bank Account' to deactivate the UPI ID.
You must retain at least one linked account to continue using UPI. For permanent deactivation of the UPI service from your bank account, you may need to contact your bank directly.
