Got SBI Cashback Instantly

[cowcoconut]

Hey,
I had previously applied for sbi cashback and the agent kept calling me to verify and kept failing. Random calls etc. kept happening for a month and they rejected my card. I finally gave up and then got the hdfc swiggy card. Now today when I logged into internet banking, it showed that I'm eligible for pre approved credit cards, SBI cashback was one of them. I clicked apply and filled the form today afternoon.
Today evening itself I got the confirmation that my card is dispatched and also got a virtual card right away.
At first I thought I got scammed or something, but I checked and it was real. That was the fastest credit card application of my life.


EDIT: Some additional info:
This time, when I applied from the netbanking page, there was no KYC calls/video etc. There was a CIBIL enquiry though.
I have an RD with SBI. Have no prior SBI credit card. CIBIL Score was 789 at the time.

This is what it looked like in the netbanking page:

Wow! that came as a surprise. Never saw these floater messages in the past on website. Checked today, no floater add

What was the welcome gift worth 5K* ??? as per the banner?

I didn't read the welcome gift part, was too excited about getting cashback. Can someone else who got a card through netbanking share what the welcome gift was?
I haven't paid my first statement and I haven't got any gifts so far.

Fir 3 months baad karu apply fir bhai ?

aap ko reason kya diya rejection ka ? over leverage ?

 

[cowcoconut]

na na CB nahi milega (offline agents se) uske liye to online wpas karke bhi kya fayda what will change in 1-2 weeks or months

Never heard of cashback being given by offline agents/bank branch.
As far as I know cashback card only exists on sbi sprint, yono and now on netbanking.

EDIT: Some additional info:
My SBI bank account is more than 10 years old, have been crediting my salary (~1L) to it for the past 2 years. I also have an RD amouting to ~9 Lakhs with SBI. I maintain a balance of less than 1000 rupees (other than the RD). Have no prior SBI credit card. CIBIL Score was 789 at the time. Mainly used Millenia(1.5L Limit) and ICICI Sapphiro (3L Limit). Limit I got for cashback was 97k.
I had tried applying for Cashback 3 months earlier, but the kyc calls kept disconnecting right away after I picked up. This time, when I applied from the netbanking page, there was no KYC calls/video etc. There was a CIBIL enquiry though.

Congrats! My father's SBI Netbanking shows a "pre-qualified" banner as well. He has a Salary account too, which could be the reason why it shows a pre-approved offer for him.

It's a good thing SBI is finally having some sort of coordination with SBI Card. However, I wished they had given him a LTF offer, as it's really difficult to get a LTF SBI Card credit card lately.

No I was agreeing with you

The trick remains unknown as SBI gives generic reason live over-leveraged, how can a customer improve and reapply.

I was thinking I am overleveraged and wasn't applying took risk recently got card approved.

I think 5k is the joining benefit that comes with Elite. Not every card would be getting 5k IMO

you are right.. I didn't get any Welcome benefit for my CB card.. but I applied thru Sprint 2 years ago..

I don't think CB has any joining benefits

Seems this is the case. Sharing the joining benefits as it appears in net banking

No benefits boss. 5k is indeed for elite card as it used to exist. No special joining benefits for any card.

Ironically I am seeing CB in preapproved even when I already hold one

I don't think it's pre-approved. It's pre-qualified.
