I. Opening of ICBC counters
After receiving the credit card, you can bring your valid ID card, credit card and password letter to the counter of the local ICBC business outlet to open the card. If you pick up your card at the local ICBC credit card center (not by post), you can open it on the spot. Opening a card at the counter will be guided by bank staff. The process is simple. Just fill out the form and give the information to the staff. If you forget to bring the password letter when you go to the business outlet, you can do a "password reset" before opening the card (this service is free) and then open the card.
In this way, the card can only be opened normally at the local ICBC counter where the credit card is applied, and it cannot be opened at different outlets.
Second, 95588 customer service phone self-service activation
The cardholder uses the telephone number and mobile phone number filled in when applying for a credit card to access the ICBC customer service hotline to open the card. Dial: 95588 to "6" international card service, select the required service language according to the voice prompt, and press "3" to enter the ICBC credit card service. Then press "2" to enter "card activation", and enter personal information such as credit card number and valid certificate (ID card) number according to the voice prompt to successfully open the card. You can set the consumption password after opening the card.
When the Peony Card is opened through telephone banking, if the cardholder uses a non-reserved telephone number to dial the telephone banking, the system will ask him to enter the reserved mobile phone number. Please follow the voice prompts. At present, ICBC in some areas does not support self-service card opening by telephone. Cardholders can choose to open cards at the counter or turn to 95588 for "9" manual service consultation.
Three. Opening of online banking
Log in to personal online banking from ICBC official website, and enter "Peony Card Activation" under "Bank Card Service". Enter the card number, card validity period, cardholder's name, certificate number and other related information, then click the OK button, and finally set the credit card password and confirm it to complete the opening of ICBC Peony Credit Card.
Online card opening can be handled in different places, which is more convenient than the first two methods. However, due to the setting problem of ICBC's online banking system, users in some areas may be automatically set a consumption password, that is to say, the password option was not filled in when the card was opened online, but after the card was successfully opened, there was actually a consumption password, which the cardholder could not know. Once this happens, 95588 or ATM can't reset the password because the cardholder doesn't know the original password. The cardholder must go to the local card-issuing bank outlet to reset the password, and the password reset fee is 10 yuan. International cards are free for the first time.
If someone opens a card on a remote network and the password cannot be reset, the password transaction limit can be set through online banking, so that the consumption below 1000 yuan does not need to enter the consumption password.
