Caixa Tem's security system ended up preventing some users from accessing their accounts. See the reasons for the blockages.
The second installment of emergency aid for 2021 has already started to be paid, but some beneficiaries are encountering problems accessing the amounts and ending up with Caixa account has been blocked. The president of Caixa Econômica Federal, Pedro Guimarães, even confirmed that the branches had queues of people trying to resolve difficulties with the platform. See what to do to grant access:
Why is my Caixa Tem account blocked?
The application lock action is a security mechanism to prevent scams and fraud. In 2020, several app accounts could be opened on the same cell phone, based on the chip number. However, this opened the door for a series of scams against workers who received the benefit. Therefore, the Institution chose to reduce the options to one account per chip and, at most, two accounts per device.
Therefore, it is possible that you have blocked your Caixa Tem account when trying to access it on another device or a new cell phone number. “Perhaps this is the biggest point in relation to blocks: we do not allow a large number of cell phone numbers per CPF because, last year, we identified this as the main weakness in terms of potential fraud”, commented Guimarães.
How can I access my Caixa Tem account that has been blocked?
Last year alone, Caixa blocked around 3 million digital accounts considered fraudulent. Now, in 2021, some users ended up being harmed because of the security system, such as those who changed their number or cell phone. Therefore, the bank released two ways to regain access.
Information such as phone number and email cannot be changed through the application. That's why, The first way to unblock your Caixa Tem account is to go to a branch carrying CPF and original identity document with photo. The procedure will be carried out by an attendant, confirming that the requester is indeed the account holder.
The units are open from 8am to 1pm and customers can ask questions by calling 111. The second way to gain access to the application is at a lottery outlet.. Caixa authorized lottery houses to help unlock the platform, checking the customer's documentation. Just present your identity, CPF and the cell phone on which the app is installed.
Caixa answers questions about access impediments
On the Caixa website, there is a list of frequently asked questions about Caixa Tem to help customers. See below those related to account blocking:
- I enter my CPF to access the CAIXA Tem app and when I click on “Enter” the message appears to search for a CAIXA branch. What should I do?

Caixa informs that simply go to a branch and request that other CPFs, which are not yours, be excluded from the app; - When I try to access, a message appears that the CPF is registered on many cell phones. What should I do?
