Experiencing the worst service from the EPFO portal, it’s been a long time but still EPFO passbook website is down. @_DigitalIndia @narendramodi Along with that they have given a number to know your balance which is a fake as per users who reported on Truecaller. #EPFOisDown pic.twitter.com/2NtokT63tF
