- 24/7 Helpline
- 8 Specialized Numbers
Quick answer: Bank Alfalah's 24/7 helpline and card-blocking numbers, WhatsApp banking contact, and email channels are listed below, along with the full complaint-escalation path to use if your issue isn't resolved on first contact.
"Bank Alfalah helpline" is one of the highest-volume searches tied to this bank, and most people searching it are already trying to resolve something specific — a blocked card, a failed transaction, an EOBI payment query, or a complaint that needs escalating. Bank Alfalah actually runs eight distinct specialized helpline numbers, not just one general line, and using the right one gets you to the right team faster.
Every Bank Alfalah Helpline Number
| Helpline | Number |
|---|---|
| General / Retail Banking Helpline (24/7) | (021/042) 111-225-111 |
| Alfa App & Internet Banking Helpline | (021/042) 111-225-224 |
| Credit Card / Platinum Helpline | 0800-22225 |
| Premier Banking Helpline | (021) 111-225-226 |
| Roshan Digital Account Helpline | (021) 111-225-226 |
| American Express Card Helpline | (042) 111-226-111 |

Bank Alfalah Credit Card Helpline — What It Covers
The dedicated Credit Card / Platinum Helpline (0800-22225) handles card activation, PIN generation, transaction inquiries, disputed-charge queries, and Orbit Rewards redemptions. For general credit card account questions (limit increases, statement queries, annual fee disputes) the same number applies; for a lost or stolen card, calling immediately blocks the card to prevent unauthorized use.
Bank Alfalah Islamic Helpline
Bank Alfalah Islamic customers use the same general helpline infrastructure — 111-225-111 for retail Islamic banking queries, and the Alfa helpline (111-225-224) covers the Alfa Islamic app specifically, since Alfa Islamic shares its login, registration, and password-reset support with the conventional Alfa helpline rather than running a fully separate number.
EOBI Payments via Bank Alfalah
Bank Alfalah facilitates digital EOBI (Employees' Old-Age Benefits Institution) contribution payments and pension disbursements through its digital banking channels. For a transaction-specific issue with an EOBI payment made through Bank Alfalah, the general helpline (111-225-111) is the right first call; for EOBI benefit-entitlement questions themselves (not the payment mechanics), EOBI is a separate government institution with its own contact channels — Bank Alfalah's helpline can only address the banking transaction side.
Helpline Number for a Blocked or Lost ATM/Debit Card
Call the general 24/7 helpline (111-225-111) immediately to block a lost or stolen debit/ATM card, or use the Alfa app's in-app card-block feature for instant self-service blocking without waiting on a call. The same self-service touch-tone system also lets you deactivate your debit card permanently using your T-PIN, generated by a contact centre officer over the phone.

Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) & Special Contacts
Bank Alfalah maintains a designated Focal Person contact specifically for Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs), listed on its official Contact Us page — a detail most comparison sites skip, but relevant if you fall into that regulatory category and need a direct compliance contact rather than the general helpline.
Contact Centre Self-Service Channel — Charges
Dialing 111-225-111 also connects you to a 24/7 touch-tone self-service system, letting you check balances, view your last 10 transactions, pay bills or mobile top-ups, pay your Bank Alfalah credit card bill from a linked account, and deactivate your debit card — all without waiting for an agent. Utility Bill Payment (UBP) via the IVR self-service channel carries a modest per-transaction charge (published in Bank Alfalah's Schedule of Charges, revised twice yearly) that scales with the bill amount — confirm the current fee for your specific biller before paying this way.
