I spoke to the BM of RBL in Tirupati n their controllers at Chennai. It is not official - but verval instructions - that World Safari will be issued against sizeable deposit. Not exactly linked to FD - but bundled with FD. Without FD, even for long standing customers like us - it is a NO. Spoke to RBL CC. Again, it is a NO. I was using RBL Platinum Delight Credit Card for over 4 years till 2021-2022. Despite giving all the related info, Still a NO.
Result. I closed my SB - running since 2017 - in RBL Tirupati (since the week it was opened here) last week.
