Faced the consequences of card closure LTF trick in HDFC

I don't think you will get a call after what you wrote here. Citing that RBI rule and "All bills have been paid already and no further transaction has been done", you don't say that if you need a retention offer imo.

Anyway even if the card is closed, it's not the end of the world. You can re-apply in 6 months. Let this be a learning and maybe ask in the forum before you proceed with such requests! 🙂

Before doing these stunts one should keep some amount due so that one can use last lifeline in situations like this.

In HDFC after putting closure request, one cannot able to get it activated within 6 months? I am not aware about HDFC thing particularly.

As soon as he got reply from the thread to to ask customer support to cancel the closure request immediately if he wish to use the card further, he should have called the credit card department and asked for the same, but instead doing so he mailed, which will take longer period of time might be.

Yep atleast he could have notified first through this medium and asked for payment of outstanding amount for accepting closure request.

That 6 month waiting period is for new credit card application not for reactivating the old one.

Yeah calling them is a better option as mail response would take some time. But I am not sure whether they handle such requests (reactivation) on call or not. So, I would suggest to try via both.

Bro my question was damn correct but you thought I was mistaken.

I asked once the card is closed, HDFC customer can't get it activated within the period of 6 months by making request? Because some bank allows to do so.

I am aware that one can reapply after cooling period of 6 months.

How old was your SBI cashback card?

My sbi cashback card limit was stuck on 10k. I told them about my situation and they agreed to make my card ltf ( my limit was also increased to 95k after 7 days ).

Annual fee waiver with 10k limit was impossible for me.
