If you have sent money from your Equity Bank account to the wrong Mpesa Number and you need reversal then you can contact Equity Bank through 0763026000 and select the reversal option. One of Equity Customer Care agents will pick your call and ask for your account number and phone number where the transaction was made to.

After making a reversal, it will take 24 to 48 hours for the money to reflect in your Equity Bank account.

Don't waste your time calling Safaricom because they will not help you.

NOTE: Make sure that you have confirmed whether the money has been withdrawn or not. If it has been withdrawn, then there is little that Equity Bank can do to help you.

Hello Wilson,
 
You have lost your money. Equity can only reverse money that has not been withdrawn.

Once you send money from Equity App to Mpesa, there is  a message that you will receive from Equity bank with transaction details. You will get the phone number there.

I sent money from my Equity bank to a wrong Mpesa number. I called equity immediately and informed them and they promised me that my money will be reversed in two hours time. Now it's six days and my money has not been returned despite being able to get hold of the person I sent the money to . He tried to send back the money to me since it was still reflecting but he was getting the message that he doesn't have enough money in his Mpesa, meaning that the money had already been frozen or returned to equity. Should I continue waiting and for how long?

Is there possibility of money reversed after three days

@Mwangi Mwirore, the money cannot be reversed in 6 hours. It takes 24 to 48 hrs unless Equity Bank reversal services have improved.

If you are sure  you called Equity Bank using the contacts provided above and they told you that they have been successful in reversing the money, then can call them for a follow up.

I lost my money even after calling immediately. Visited the bank, told would get partia reversal without any explanation and finally told reversal has been declined....why cant the equity bank follow the money untill its reversed instead of asking customers to go to the police station for investigations. How long does the bank take to reverse.
by
Equity bank will pick your call, promise to reverse and to communicate aftwr 2hrs but finally tell  you that the money has been withdrawn. That you should report to the police.
by
It's no Use calling Equity customer care,I called immediately after sending money to the wrong number, gave all my details but the male customer care agent was very rude, he flatly refused to reverse saying he didn't understand how i could make such a mistake.  My Account, my money ! The moment we finished speaking Equitel send send me a message that my money has now been credited to the wrong number I was trying to stop.  The number continues to be mteja. It was only sh.1500 but the rudeness of the agent and refusal to assist really  got to me.  I curse that agent, may he loose more than I lost.

what if you've sent the amounts but the recipient have not received the them yet but  they are subtracted from your account
by (47.5k points)
You can visit the bank and provide your ID. The bank will check whether the recipient received the money or not. If he/she did not receive it, then it will be reversed to your account.

Calling Equity is all in vain.i called immediately and was assured of reversal in 2hrs time. After 20 minutes i visited the nearest Equity bank and after  about an hour was told that i could get partial reversal. After about 3hrs i was later told that the reversal was declined. Up to now i lost my money and its very painful.
