IDFC 0 mab account offer
- Thread starter kumar98

Received the 0 MAB offer from IDFC First bank day before yesterday, initially I ignored the same as I was not interested in having any more savings account. However, after going through the offer details and considering the previous experience of interacting IDFC bank, I gave it a shot and applied for this account.
Needless to say, IDFC is one of the best banks when it comes to their digital onboarding process, be it their credit cards or savings account, they have simply mastered the process of digital onboarding. Perhaps the older banks like HDFC and SBI can learn a lesson or two from the IDFC bank.
I managed to complete the entire account creation process within 5 minutes. Though the basic account has been created, my VKYC is still pending. Which I am planning to complete within the days to come.
Also, those having questions about debit card, I already received a message from their side where they have mentioned that debit card, cheque book issuance is free.
Also, they are offering personal accident cover upto Rs. 5,00000 which is not bad considering it is 0 MAB account.

If someone managed to do VKYC in a couple of days from now, let me know, my new pan card isn't dispatched yet, have it on e-pan for now while my old pan card has old photo of mine so I'm waiting for the newer pan card arrive and then do kvkyc

Have u confirmed from cust care that is this a 0 mab or not. However it's clearly written that 0 mab but still cust care told me that its a 10 k balance account only so have to maintain 10 k mab. Please call them and confirm us.

So there will be annual charges for debit card,
They have only mentioned 0 issuance fee.
in the app it does say 10k saving a/c, haven't done VKYC so will have to see what happens
lol it's just my screenshot you have shared 😉 , and it on WhatsApp not on SMS.
IDFC don't charge anything for your debit card.

Oh my bad I thought it was on SMS. I hope it is alright. I wanted to highlight the 0 balance line. I didn't claim it as my own.😆
I have three months old Millennia with 56K limit, what are the chances I'll get this offer?
Yeah it alright 👍
Customer care folks are one of the least informed guys, in most of the cases customer knows more than the customer care executives. Also, I have kept all the proofs handy with me, in case if the IDFC changes its mind in future and try to fleece money out of my by applying penalties, I will simply have options to escalate the case to PNO and ultimately to RBI Ombudsman. I will be liable for the compensation too
Not sure how IDFC is selecting the users for this offer. Most of the users who received this invite have following things in common.
1. Except the credit card they do not have any prior relationship with IDFC
2. Most of them have IDFC Wealth or Select CC.
Not possible, the offer is targeted and they are verifying the customer credentials using the Aadhar and PAN details. Many folks tried to share the link with others but were not able to proceed after the Aadhar and PAN verification.
obviously, after Aadhar Authentication it will show up zero charges on 10k saving a/c if you have receive communication from idfc bank
VKYC done, the executive confirmed that it is indeed a 0 MAB account!! lets see how it goes with the monthly interest credit etc!
