Digital Priority Pass For HDFC Infinia

[baxter]

Hello! I am trying to activate my HDFC Infinia Priority Pass account on prioritypass.com, but I'm having trouble getting the digital pass. With my previous DCB card, I could easily access the digital Priority Pass after loggining in, but now I don't see that option at all.

Sure, but don't you think it's possible to check their card status online? Yes, they can, and that's my point - we don't have that for MC/Visa linked PP here, which is lame.

There is absolutely no need to check any "status".

Uh, NO, there is.

Let’s suppose you hold Regalia or some other card where you have limited number of international lounge access, wouldn’t you say it would be convenient to know online how many lounge accesses are remaining for you rather than finding it out at the terminal?

Or perhaps a different scenario - let’s say someone has multiple PP, and for some of these cards the main card was cancelled. How would they know which of their PP cards is still active?

How did people manage this before PP created this website? People don't travel international that often. So you know how many visits are allowed per quarter and simply calculate how many you have used. Similarly, you discard the PP for any canceled card. If in doubt, you take both and see which one works.

Terminal doesn't say if it's the free visit or paid. Many have fallen into that trap by swiping pp at domestic lounge and getting charged 30$ for it later on.

@baxter , I agree that this information is good to have and a quality of service upgrade. But pp doesn't NEED to show this info simply because it isn't mandated. It earns more by not showing u the required info. Which I believe is what @Lobogris might be saying.

You can always give feedback but I don't think anyone from collinson is checking this thread. Try a more direct approach.

What's the benefit of registering on their website?

My point is that a digital PP option is much better. I dont always carry my PP in my wallet/bag.
A digital PP is always available on my phone which im less likely to leave behind

Hmm well, if your main card is deactivated, I think the PP would get rejected.

I totally agree about the second point sir.

One small hack that I found out was that the PP expiry date would be same as the main card expiry date . So, by matching that , you would get to know which PP was issued with which card ( There are always corner use cases , but this has worked for me so far )
