Need Help - HDFC swiggy card blocked before activation

[hemant89]

I applied for the HDFC Swiggy card via the Swiggy app (LTF) a few days back and got the mail that it's approved (even in the Swiggy app it was showing approved).
Today I received the physical card but when I tried to activate it in HDFC cards it said that the card was blocked.
I tried to reach out to CC and they said that it is permanently blocked as they decided that they cannot issue the card after dispatching. I never heard that a bank would block the card after dispatching and how they come to the decision of non-issuing after dispatching the card.
Hence reaching out to the technofino community for suggestions. Did anyone ever face this issue? Is there anything that can be done here?

Looks like a false approval of your application. This has happened in the past to other users from other banks as well.

Wow. My card is also approved yesterday and it is not showing in mycards or netbanking. I think the same thing will happen for me. I will assume the worst so that I will not be disappointed.

We can't even complaint because of t&c. Atleast try to get the enquiry removed.

Do a 500-1000 Rs transaction once seen digitally

So in this case nothing can be done?

Thanks for the suggestion. I will try that.
Btw, is there a t&c regarding this? I haven't even started using it and they have even sent me the physical card. If they have sent the card they should follow with that or at least send a notification that it was a false approval and your card will not work.

Only this stupid HDFC Bank can do :

Beg to get applications.

Illogical processing.

Highly erratic n incorrect trackings.

Issue, courier AND then BLOCK. Even before delivery of card.

Accept Ativation of card AND then BLOCK.

Every month screw up the working App n netbanking App.

Refer everything to Chennai.

Except Chennai, everyone else is a courier in this louzy bank.

CustCare teams doesn't know anything.

Chennai office don't care a damn.

This in a nut shell is HDFC.

The ONLY team which works lightening fast, n contributes more than 600% to 1000%, is that which do hard hits on CIBIL.

With 16-18 hits in exactly one year, this team ALONE is the MOST EFFICIENT TEAM in HDFC.

It's another matter that even after that stupendous effort by that Team-par-excellence, a CC may not get approved.

I can see the card in mycards and swiggy app.

He got LTF offer in Swiggy app itself.

Thats great! I hope it is not showing as blocked in the "Mycards"!

No its not. Waiting for physical card.

It seems your card became a part of collateral damage....Currently, HDFC is blocking all the swiggy LTF cards issued fraudulently by sharing fake screenshot....You may complain to nodal officer ask for the reason of cancellation after being issued...If not satisfied with response then approach RBI banking ombudsman.

How to get Swiggy CC LTF? It will be offered LTF for a lot of people soon as I and a few other random people got this today. There was a cibil hard enquiry but card approved in a few hours of applying. I don't have a core card (closed Business MoneyBack, now being spammed daily with Biz Grow Visa and Biz First RuPay in Net Banking). I also have Neu Infinity RuPay LTF and now this on Mastercard. Par mujhe Millennia chahiye 😩😫😭😭😭




And ultimately it will be devalued due to too many LTF issued cards 😀
