Diners Club Privilege Devaluation w.e.f. Aug 1

After devaluation of Hdfc dinner club privilege, is it worth now, big devaluation is loungue access, need to spend 15k in previous quarter to avail this.

Now thinking to close this and apply for hdfc irctc.
 
The only good thing about this card was the 12 lounge access without any conditions and that too is gone now. With its low acceptability it has become completely useless other than to use for Smartbuy offers. HDFC is really going down the drain.
 
I heard from someone in HDFC bank recently that HDFC is going to remove Diners club portfolio(not sure though). They are going to devalue it and offer Regalia or Regalia Gold. For DCB they might offer Infinia as ultra Premium HDFC Infinia reserve is in pipeline.

Just a matter of time and need to see what happens.
 
Just when I am fighting with HDFC for DCP LTF approval, the card gets devaluation!

If we spend 15k in a quarter and do not use the lounge access in next, will the benefit be carried forward?
 
Axis and HDFC had completed Round 1 devaluation. Round 2 started by HDFC, Axis will follow soon.

Major devaluation happening in Lounge access, because lounges are being flocked at the Airports.
They are removing freeloaders who dont spend and just accumulate cards for lounges. Banks have realized how costly lounges are.

If you spend sir you can access the lounge and be my guest. Seems a route to profitability

Only good thing is rush will reduce in lounges now.
