No redemption fee to be charged on Privilege card. Did you get a message that redemption fee will be applicable while redeeming your ER points?

2)50K spend not the last quarter, it is in the last 3 months (i.e. rolling 3 months).. that is AXES for you .. Kaching !!! 😉

Damn.. are the crappy axis systems even capable of calculating the amount spent correctly in last 3 months? This may not affect M4B as most spend 50K or more in a month anyways - however can be an issue for other card holders.

Is this fee only for redemption and not for transfer? I transferred my Atlas Miles last Friday (still pending) and wasn't charged anything).

It was showing it'll be charged in my next credit card statement

It seems like they already had reward redemption fee. Now I think they increased it

 

[vivekshah]

What about 15 k legendry limit club ppl

That would be labeled as Digital Begging!!! 🤣

 

[Vasuki]

That would be labeled as Digital Begging!!! 🤣

I m in 20k legend league of sbi Paytm card ..
I got saved from digital begging


Irony is axis saved me lol

Haha no. I do plan on taking it till RBI because I think it's unfair to have your rewards delayed by 45 days and a notice of only 30 days. For example if the delay for accelerated points was 120 days, then no one would have ever received those points with the promised deal. I don't think it's a hopeless quest but it's definitely a low odds of success.

I have written to my RM, he assured crediting before 19 April through a special SR. Did you write to Axis MD?

No. I'm starting the escalation process right now. I think it shouldn't be impossible to get this done the right way, at least get the points for transactions done before the notice was sent out so I'm not too worried about. If I take this to rbi, I'll have a very long list of complaints.

Did you get Feb AEP? I still didn't even get that
