Hdfc Bank credit limit upgrade offer.

[Shoxie]

So, I've been using milliniea for the past 7 months. Wrote them for a credit limit increase last Month and they denied the request. Escalations also didn't work, even though I had credit limit of 1.5L from other banks.

My credit limit was only 20k, which is only of the lowest for Millennia credit card. Since then, started maintaining 50k in the account and have increased my spends in the card will spend 1l in the current quarter, have spent approximately 60k from start of the year.

I've now received an offer to upgrade my Credit limited to 40k only, which is also very low. So my question is, should I wait for at least another month, spend more than 1L in the quarter, and then reach write an email for manual CL Enhancement? Will that work? Or they'll still offer me only 40k?

Also, if I accept the CL enhancement now, how long does it take for HDFC to offer another CLI? Is it 6 months cooldown like in Axis and SBI?

P.s. My salary doesn't match the requirement of 35k pm and I applied and got this card on C2C basis. I posted this considering this is a specific case, I tried searching and didn't get any results similar to this

After how many months?

SBI is a bit generous and not like hdfc with credit limits. For half the people, the limit increase is offered every six months.

I also got limit increase from 1.02lkh to 1.38lkh. Weird stuff from HDFC. My other credit cards including SBI are above 4Lkhs. They are miser when it comes to limit.

True, very few people have got generous credit limit enhancements from them.

People with Max Savings Account get generous LE. Others get after 2-3years that also max 30-50k.

Heyy, how long you were holding the card? What was the limit? And do you meet the salary criteria of 35k per month for millennia? How much did you spend roughly in the last 6 months?

Sorry for so many questions lol. Mb to millennia is quite a rare sight. My GF has Mb. Trying to upgrade that to millennia.

I happen to be one of those fortunate few! HDFC even tried massaging my ego: "you are amongst only 10% of our customers getting such an offer"!

I was like: "If I'm so special to you, what's stopping you from ever offering me an upgrade to a decent card from my current Moneyback ?!"

People with Max Savings Account get generous LE. Others get after 2-3years that also max 30-50k.

There is no point trying to make any sense out of HDFC's logic! Since I somehow happen to be "one of their 10% special customers" (how ?!), they had kept on routinely showering me with automatic and generous LE's even when I had just a regular account with them, and only moderate levels of card usage!

Millenia is better in terms of cashback

But I don't use their card at all.

That's probably why you don't get CLI?

Then they might even decrease your limit...
