The web portal service provided by the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation, or EPFO, which enables subscribers to access their e-passbook, has continued to face technical difficulties for some time now, making it tough for customers to view their account balance. Even though the technical issue appears to have been resolved, many users are still having difficulties using the website to retrieve their passbooks because of server-related problems. Due to this persistent issue, EPFO took to Twitter and wrote, “Dear member, we regret the inconvenience. The concerned team is looking into the matter. Kindly wait for some time. The matter will be resolved shortly.”

How To Check EPF Balance Via SMS?
EPFO members with active UAN numbers can view their current PF balance and contributions by sending a message from their registered cellphone number to 77382 99899. The message must include "EPFOHO UAN" for English or "EPFOHO UAN" and the first three letters of the chosen language (for instance, "EPFOHO UAN HIN" for Hindi). The facility supports ten different languages. EPFO will give the member's most recent PF contribution and balance details along with any relevant KYC data.
