If you are a parent and the only signatory, you need to submit a solemn declaration or authorisation (certified by a Citizen Service Centre / KEP or gov.gr) from the other parent confirming they consent to the opening of the bank account.

On the dashboard, once you log in to myAlpha Web or myAlpha Mobile. 

You can view the available balance on each of your accounts in the Accounts section of the Overview. If you click or tap on the account, both the available balance and the gross balance appear. 

Your available balance represents the funds you can use right away. Your gross balance is the overall balance in your account at any given moment, though some of the funds may not be available, as they have already been used for a transaction. 

This happens when there are credit or debit transactions that are still pending. For example, a purchase made with your debit card that has not cleared yet or an incoming payment that has yet to be credited to your account: 

• In the case of the purchase, the amount you have already spent has not left your account yet. Therefore, it still appears in the gross balance, though not in the available balance, as it has already been spent. 
• In the case of the incoming payment, we have received the payment details from the other bank, but have not yet received the actual amount. Therefore, the amount does appear in the gross balance, but has not yet reached your account, which means it is not yet available.
