AU Credit Card Add-on condition

googley

TF Buzz
AU Bank has found a new way of trapping customer's money now. In case anyone has applied for a AU Zenith+ or any other credit card from the bank and want to get an add-on for any of your family members you would now need to create a savings account (customer ID) for that relation with AU Bank without which the add-on credit card would not be issued. The reason behind this silly logic is to validate the the add-on member is related to the primary card hold which does not make sense to me.

This is not mentioned anywhere in their card T&C.

It basically means that you have to lock-in the AMB amount of about 10K for each add-on member with AU Bank. Quite disappointing TBH.

I am not sure if such practices are even encouraged by RBI.

login, apply addon, input customer id and follow instructions..
On netbanking or app?

Also I have another issue today, I had a bill of 6k something on my hdfc cc due today out of which 19rs is still due, now on unipay it says pay minimum 100 but due is only 19. what should I do to pay off this amt.
And if I don't would it have any negative impact on my profile even slightly, as I've always paid 100% due on all cards always and this is going to be first time.

there is NEFT, direct netbanking, billdesk various other options present to pay bill <100 for any bank. Do check credit card statement and/or bank website for these options.

Unipay is not sponsered by any bank, and if you wait then you'll have to pay penalty.

Understood, will try to pay, else should I pay 100 using cred?
I have unbilled trnx north of several thousand allready.
 
I hv zenith plus if I apply for add on will my wife also receive zenith plus or a lower end variety. Will she also get bogo of bms along with international lounge access . Also please confirm the charges

fyi, for any bank in India afaik, addon always have same card as primary.

If primary downgrade/upgrade, addon also follows same.

applies any bank, any card. 99.99% sure, afaik.

yes, lounge shared and other benefits separate.

chamges, not sure what you meant but below can give sample..

 
So I applied zenith plus formy wife but they said even movie booking offer will be shared not seprate

understand, why should bank mention as separate when it costs to them? Its a loophole where bin same but card number different, so bms treat as different card. Use as long as it works and don't remind banks about it.

currently all banks provide different card numbers, so 10% offers, instant discount offers, food app discount offers etc. can be availed separately with primary.

Only exception is lounge where some reason they're tracking overall account level instead card.

so, before they implement same to other places like movies in above case, utilize it and dont ask customer care, why its working for other not u, its never meant to work in the first place.
 
How can I apply for an addon card for my AU LIT card without the addon card holder having any relationship with the bank? My father is already 63 years. I dont want to open a savings account now for him
