Can I have two debit card for a single HDFC max account?

[ujjwal2024]

I have a 25k balance max account with HDFC...while opening at the branch, I got platinum DC...
then I thought as milleniu, has better (2.5%) return for offline spends, I ordered it online and got it now..
In the net-banking now two card is showing...
I have not activated the millennium card yet.
My question is,,,if I activate millennium, whether the platinum card will get disabled? or both the card will remain active...
As now I am feeling that although the rate is higher but the absolute amount is less in millennium (400) than platinum (750)
hence, willing to keep platinum
So, what to do?
1) activate the millennium and see whether both of the card remains active, if platinum deactivated, then again request upgrade from millennium to platinum
or
2) do not activate the millennium

HDFC doesn't allow two DCs for one account. Once the new DC is activated, the old one will be permanently blocked.

Current accounts aren't easily provided for individuals now without a proper business, instead two savings accounts are the better way forward for 2 different debit cards.

So, If i donot activate the new card, old card will remain active as it is
or
I will block the new card in the net-banking

You can do both but blocking it permanently would be the right option

I have 1 salary account and 1 savings account with HDFC and HDFC has given me 4 debit cards god knows why. I just switch my main HDFC account with the debit card based on the color of the day.

So your both accounts are single-holder accounts and you have 4 active DCs? 2 for each account?

I have 2 Savings account (Savings Max/Regular) and got 2 DC (Platinum/Millenia) respectively. You need to maintain 25K+10 K =35K AMB

Yes single holder and yes 2 each and you can switch any debit card and attach it to any account.

I knew this feature but was still transferring money instead of switching the cards. Thought not 4 but 1 per account
