The Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) is releasing its July 2025 payments under the 8171 system, with each eligible woman entitled to receive Rs.13,500. However, many beneficiaries across Pakistan are reporting that they receive less than the actual amount due to unauthorized deductions by agents or middlemen. If you’re tired of losing your money or don’t want a single rupee cut from your payment, this guide is for you.
Here’s how to ensure you receive your complete BISP payment without deduction.
Why Are Deductions Happening?
BISP strictly prohibits any form of deduction. Yet, some unauthorized retailers, agents, or third parties take advantage of beneficiaries by:
-
Charging “processing” or “service” fees
-
Demanding payment for biometric help
-
Asking for a “cut” from the payment before handing it over
-
Forcing recipients to return a portion after ATM withdrawal
These practices are illegal, and every beneficiary has the right to 100% of the Rs.13,500.
What Does the Government Say?
The BISP administration has clearly stated:
“Every beneficiary must receive the full Rs.13,500. No agent, shopkeeper, or anyone else is allowed to charge even one rupee. Report all such deductions to 8171 immediately.”
They’ve also improved monitoring systems in July 2025 to reduce such cases by:
-
Assigning verified agents only
-
Reintroducing ATM withdrawals in select areas
-
Issuing printed receipts at camps and shops
-
Making biometric verification mandatory for transparency
How to Ensure You Receive Full Payment
Follow these steps to make sure no one cheats you:
1. Visit Authorized Payment Centers Only
Use only:
-
Official BISP camps
-
Verified HBL Connect agents
-
Designated bank branches
-
BISP-enabled ATMs
Never hand over your CNIC to a private agent or ask someone else to collect the money for you.
2. Insist on Biometric Verification
Your payment will only be released after successful thumbprint scan. If someone claims to collect without biometrics, it’s a scam.
3. Always Take the Printed Receipt
It should clearly mention:
-
Rs.13,500 disbursed
-
Time & date
-
Name and CNIC
-
Payment method
The receipt is your proof—keep it safe.
How to Check Your Payment and Avoid Frauds
Method | What To Do | Response Time |
---|---|---|

Make sure your CNIC is valid and not expired. Also, confirm you are listed in the July 2025 payment phase.
Red Flags to Avoid
Stay alert if:
-
Someone asks to “help” withdraw payment for a fee
-
An agent says only Rs.10,000 is available
-
You are asked to give a thumbprint before seeing the amount
-
No receipt is given after disbursement
-
Payment is being made in installments
All of these are signs of fraud.
What to Do If You Face a Deduction
If any amount is cut or you’re threatened by an agent:
-
Send your CNIC to 8171 with the word “Complaint”
-
Visit your nearest BISP Tehsil Office and register your complaint
-
Call BISP Helpline: 0800-26477
-
Submit your receipt as proof (if available)
Once reported, the system logs your complaint and starts an investigation.
