Ugh, I haven't gotten feb points too, not even the 1st tap bonus 8k, and so many others, I am so tired and fed up, that calling and following up with them, it's just too tiring.
Get an SR/Complaint no. They will be required to close the complaint and also write to their PNO etc.
 
You are concerned about 250 RPs whereas I didn't get almost 10K RPs till now for the txns done on 21st Mar. With IDFC, it's better to wait and see instead of getting desperate.
W.e.f 25th March, 2025 - Now all your transaction and 10x rewards are instantly credited using IDFC Firstap RuPay Debit Card (update your IDFC app).

Old transaction rewards will credit within 45 days.

Yep, got it. Amazing experience tbh except the call kept getting disconnected and their voice was also cutting when i called, but when they called me back, the process was flawless. They gave me whole statement that what I have gotten for what.

Anyways, funny part is they have given me 8k points for 1st tap card already as she confirmed but they haven't given me 8k points for visa infinite card yet.

Also I have gotten mar points but feb points they said when u ordered the 1stap card, and u did all trxns from that, the card wasn't mapped with rewards portal. But now it is mapped. She took my req. confirmed all trxns for feb too and put in manual req. and gave me ETA for 7-10 days.

Correct except the transactions done for bill payments in selected cases like if u do a BP for 1rs and it get's reversed, and then u do it again, u won't get 250 automatic monthly points. Customer care rewards team confirmed me that as it got reversed and 250 pts are for 1st Bill pay trxn hence I didn't got instant points. They said the 2nd try points of 250 u will get in few days not instantly. This is the logic they gave me.

Upon checking my trxns, I did trxn of 1500 something via visa infinite. That's my sole trxn on the visa in feb till today. 8k points weren't received. Merchant was maximize for amazon pay gv. May be maximize wasn't eligible? Anyone know maximize's MCC Code?

Should I try using my visa infinite card now again? as since the account was upgraded to wealth, I have done just 1 trxn in total since feb when the acc was opened. It was opened normal acc in feb, i got 2k points of classic card. Then I upgraded to visa infinite wealth and 1stap. May be visa wealth wasn't mapped to reward portal that time? I have asked for points nevertheless. But should I try a 1500 trxn somewhr else, if yes, where? I am comfortable doing trxn to get amazon pay gv, should i try buying gv at amazon directly for 1500, is that mcc valid for 8k points?

Now only one 8k welcome points either on wealth or firsttap. It was supposed to be this way but seems there was bug people were getting for both. Now seems it is corrected. You have already got 8k welcome points and that's all. I was also late to party missed on firsttap.

Now only one time you will get welcome rewards, primary card or firstap RuPay debit card.

Guys Till Now Mine is Normal Idfc Account. Just Now Upgraded to wealth. I already have a first tap idfc card before. While activating wealth debit card it is giving me an error. Without wealth debit card activation If I use First Tap will it considered under wealth rewards section.

Yes it will count with respect to wealth segment. Even you can use existing visa card that too will fetch rewards according to wealth tier.
