DCB LTF under alumni offer

alt578

TF Neo
I recently opened an HDFC salary account (via branch) and have 2 salary credits yet, and I don't have any credit card from HDFC yet. I want to apply for DCB LTF under the alumni offer. What is the best way to apply for it?
I started getting preapproved card mails from hdfc and while checking for eligibility, my preapproved card is moneyback with 35k limit😂.
What is the CL I can expect from DCB if I get one?
 
Did you had a bank account / credit card with HDFC? I am planning to apply for this under alumni offer, but don't have any existing relationship with HDFC. Can i apply this without any prior relationship?
You can apply offline through branch and ask for special pricing MID form from the sales manager. refer this link:

 
I got HDFC DCB last month under Alumni offer even without a HDFC bank account although I had a HDFC Regalia for 5 years or so. They dint issue it very easily. Had to exchange a lot of emails for a month or so before they finally issued.

Hi, did you get dual card (DCB in addition to existing regalia)or upgrade from regalia to DCB?
 
Yes. I got it. Got it based on graduation from NIT Silchar.

Wow. I am from NIT Surathkal (Karnataka). and HDFC had rejected my mail saying that I am not eligible under the Alumni Program. On top when I asked them the list of the institutions. They sent the same copy-paste mail. In addition, there was no reply from PriorityRedressal.CreditCards@hdfcbank.com.


This is the reply I had received (twice)

NIT Karnataka is there in the list. Not sure about the authenticity of the list.
How did you apply?

Just mailed them on customerservices.cards@hdfcbank.com.


"Hello Team,

I came to know that there is a Diners Club Black LTF offer for Alumni of selected colleges.
I have done my Bachelor's of Technology (B.Tech, 20xx) from NIT Surathkal (https://nitk.ac.in)

I am attaching the graduation certificate as the proof.

Please confirm if I am eligible and how can I apply for the same.
"

They took good 2 weeks to reply and replied that sorry you are not eligible.
 
I user to have just above 1.75. Then i got my bonus last month, and now it has gone below it. Should i mail them last 3 payslips?
Yes they will ask for 3 month payslip, but if you have 1.75+ in the last payslip (for ex variable pay) there is a high chance they will go ahead with it..
so ensure the most recent month should be the one you recieve variable pay which will make it 1.75+

The list has the name as "NIT Karnataka", you wrote "NIT Surathkal". I think they don't know that both are same, and concluded that your Institute is not in the list. Worth trying again with "NIT Karnataka".
