Are you allowed to use your phone inside the bank?

They do not allow you to answer or making phone calls here but we can still use our phone other than that.

@Janet357 I have no idea ir there is no phone policy inside banks here.

I have no idea, no one take out their phone while inside the bank, it's not really good manners.

I wasn't aware phones aren't supposed to be used in a bank. (I just checked and yes, banks in the US prohibit the use of phones inside.) I just go in, do my transactions and leave. I don't have time to pull my phone out to do anything with it before I'm done and leaving.

I can use my phone at the bank, they even provide the WiFi

Most visits to the Bank involve using the app on the phone whilst there. T?herek are no rules against using phones in banks here in Scotland

I think banks would prefer we don't for security reasons. Many phones (especially smartphones) have cameras on them. However, I've never come across an issue when it comes to using my phone. I've played games or other things while waiting to speak to someone. I don't make phone calls and usually remember to put the rinnger on silent or vibrate. But, then again, my husband is the only one who calls me with any reguarality.

In China, mobile phones can be used in banks. But you can't talk loudly to influence others.

You can use phones in banks here. I am not sure about all the rules I mostly do my banking online,

Really? My bank allows us to use our phones inside. It would be boring doing nothing while waiting in a long line

I have seen people peering into their screens but avoiding sounds.

I don't use my phone in the bank but I don't normally have to wait that long to be waited on. I don't know if there are rules against it or not, haven't ever seen anything posted about it.

I think there was a BSP circular prohibiting the use of mobile phones inside banks. In your bank, I think the guards have been very lax in implementing the circular.

what is the reason for the bank to make such a rule? In my country there are no rules, because not all who use cellphones are negative, it could be that he is waiting for someone's account number to make payments for buying and selling online.

We are allowed to use phones while at the Bank.

They're not allowed inside hospital's pharmacy too actually. But I think it's fine as long as we're not making too much noise.

Yes ..here is no restriction regarding using cell at bank.

My uncle one time called from inside a bank.

I think it is allowed here insurance banks.
