Fees for non-activated hdfc swiggy card

[Akash.nagori]

I recently got hdfc swiggy card but I have not activated yet and when I called CC the lady today me if I don’t activate and if the card gets deactivated after 37 days then I will have to pay the joining fees … is it the case ? If I have not activated then why should I pay the charges… i think this is not fair… Experts please throw some light on this and suggest what should be done

Ok and can you suggest what I should ask in return from the bank if I get this in writing ?

Ltf is your best bet.

Compensation would be hard in this case

Thats the trick they play to force people into activating card. I have been on the boat too. Got 4-5 calls everyday and every call had different tricks being played.

I also got swiggy card and did not activate till today .

Waiting for ltf msg

When you got the card ?

So straight away I should ask for LTF ? I know this is not so easy but I am just getting prepared if i get the bank under the rock

Well it never showed LTF so it won’t work bcoz obviously it will show as a paid card in their system and actually it is a paid card only and more over to prove this they will ask me to show some proof

I applied through cashkaro .

They also know card sourcing platform but I will activate when card will be ltf

You already got back the card‘s renewal fees for at least 3 years that’s great
