just now, submitted closer request. Any idea about closing time.
 
I will be closing Fi before the new terms apply in order to avoid account closure charges - so before 1 June. The account offers no rewards and has debit card charges and now they want some monthly balance too. Not worth it at all.
already submitted closer request for fi account, thinking about jupiter also
 
Jupiter has free debit card for pro and salary accounts currently.
The charges don't say anything directly about those (unless salary-7777 is salary accounts)

रिश्ता आप से है
क्यूँकि वसूली भी आप से है

Edit: Some Banks charge for some service, some for other,
Federal seems to charge for everything.
Even account closure is free post 12 months normally.

I was anyways extremely unhappy with their customer service ( they took 2 months to solve an issue of mine) and was only holding on to it for the CB on infinite.

Going to get my this month's cashback and close the account on the 5th or 6th
