Do we get Club Vistara Silver membership with SBI Vistara prime?

[Hisoka]

I was planning to buy club Vistara prime card (over Axis Vistara signature) as it offers priority pass membership as well. But on SBI card website it isn't mentioned anywhere that we'll also get complimentary Club Vistara silver membership. On Air Vistara website it does mention, however.

Can anyone using this card confirm this? As the membership offers lot of benefits, the most exciting one being 1 upgrade voucher, through which i can travel one business class (upgrading from premium economy using the voucher) ticket with just 3k rs (credit card fees).

PP membership is not complimentary post second year of the card

You will get CV silver with Prime. I read somewhere on this forum that you can't use the upgrade voucher on top of the complimentary ticket voucher. So i am not sure about your second point.
Also, for sbi vistara prime, 4 PP visits are complimentary per year but yes they expire after two years.

Yes, upgrades cannot be done over complimentary tickets, you have to buy a premium economy ticket to be eligble for an upgrade

Thanks. Also, if i don't use my upgrade voucher for the first year. Will it get added up for the next year? Or it expires? Since you're saying I've to purchase a ticket (either from CV points or regular money), I'd like that voucher to get add up

AS far as I know you can extend it to maximum 3 months more after paying Extra.

Hello! Just wondering if you got this SBI card and Silver Tier membership? I paid the annual fees but the CV membership is still mapped to base tier.

 

[Akashgod]

[Deleted member 9785]

is CV silver tier going to get renewed every year?

 

[Akashgod]

is CV silver tier going to get renewed every year?

Yes absolutely

is CV silver tier going to get renewed every year?

@Akashgod Silver Tier can be renewed only after accumulating 15000 tier points or 20 flights a year else we will fallback to Base tier. (Refer screenshot) SBI link - https://www.sbicard.com/en/faq/complimentary-club-vistara-membership.page

 

[Akashgod]

It's a joke.. do u hold card ? Or planning to apply ?

 

[aswathsm]

I have applied and got it approved. I was going through terms and conditions and this was shock for me as well. I thought silver tier should get renewed every year. idk how far this is true. And recently I hear many award flights/seats for free ticket voucher is withdrawn, Can you share your experience in redeeming free vouchers based on the city you hail from.

 

[Akashgod]

I haven't redeemed any vouchers , my card is 3 months old.. only thing that came good use to me is their priority pass so far.

Where did you use. the Priority pass and is this lifetime free or only 2 years?,
if no lifetime, then is 2 years validity applicable from the date of priority pass purchase or is the credit card purchase data? or the complimentary lounge ends after 2 years of PP/CC issuance?

 

[Akashgod]

International business class lounge pp used.
Yes 2 years after the date of issuance of pp not cc
