TF Select
I opened a salary account with HDFC 6 months ago in April, purely because I wanted to get a LTF card from them. I earn 1.4L in hand and went ahead with the card application. The mistake I did was I didn't go ahead for the application in branch since they asked me to wait for 3 months before application. Somebody from HDFC called and I completed the application with their help. No income documents were asked and I got a Millennia Diners card LTF issued in April 2023.
The problem was it had a very low credit limit of 59k. I wanted this card primarily for sale offers and didn't spend much apart from 1-2k every month. I raised a credit enhancement request both via escalation email and form in branch along with payslips in July 2023. They replied with a huge email with jargon words that me being a "valued customer" and all. Basically, rejected the request because of bank policy.
So, I waited another 3 months and applied for the limit increase two weeks back with the branch again. It's been rejected again without any solid reason and when I dived deep with a credit card agent in HDFC, they offered me two solutions:
Why the heck can't HDFC offer the limit enhancement now based on payslips, if they promise they'll do the same for a new card? And Is there any better way to go about asking for a limit increase?
I was thinking of attaching my payslips to pno one final time with an empty threat that I'll close the card if they don't budge. Any better ideas?

- Use my card upto 70% limit every month for next 6 months and I MIGHT get a limit enhancement offer. This was not a ironclad promise as well.
- Close the current card. Wait for 3 months. Then apply again in branch for a new credit card along with payslips. They promise that going this way I'll get a increased credit limit. But I'm not sure if I'll get the Millennia card LTF if I take this route. I don't want to settle for Regalia or Diners Privilege card.
