After a new update by the EPFO in the EPF member portal, many EPF members are facing the issue that their UAN is disabled.EPF Members are not able to access their EPF accounts showing them as Locked/Disabled.
However, there is no official notification issued by the EPFO on the reason for these issues and what is the remedy to solve them.
There can be two basic reasons, firstly due to Aadhar No. which is linked to different employee mobile numbers. Secondly, it may also be due to UAN no. getting linked to a different/wrong mobile number.
It is advised that the member should update his/her Aadhar linked mobile number with UAN by selecting FORGET option. If any further problem /error persists they can mail to the EPFO Department technical team at employeefeedback@epfindia.gov.in or rc.ndc@epfindia.gov.in for more assistance.
