Data piracy by CRED

[GABBA₹]

Google, there is some way to know who has access your gmail. You have to purge those access, having a simple uninstall of cred doesn't do that.

May not be possible

It is possible, the password Axis uses to protect PDFs can be unlocked by a five-year old in today's day and age.

i dont have this issue....coz thank god i have a great brain to keep track of all emails and due dates for cc just from emails only....

For Cred, the email access is needed in case you want your statement details. They do open the statement PDF. The statement basics like total due and mimimum due can be gathered from the SMS texts. So if you want the statement to be accessed on Cred, then give mail access.
It no surpise that they are able to tell you your total monthly cashback and reward points as they have access to the statement.

Same thing in savesage also if you give access they can fetch your total rewards points also

Yes, CRED does parse your statement PDF once you’ve given consent for CRED Protect. That’s how it is able to show not just bill/due date, but also spends, cashback summary, and category insights.

If you’re not comfortable, you can always revoke CRED Protect access from the app settings....

I set autoforwarding for statements to go to my 3rd e-mail ID and linked only this e-mail access to CRED.

That is a good strategy

If you are using CRED, you shouldn't be concerned for "privacy."

Messages like bill amount is ok as it already had our last 4 digits of cc. But if it sends cb, rewards earned too then thats a problem

It will be helpful for those who want to change everyday, but don't remember the colour used previous day.😬
