HDFC Bank Diners Club Black Metal Credit Card Launched | Difference Between the Plastic and New Metal DCB Card

[metalmagnate]

Any thoughts on validity of reward points? I mean if I switch to metal variant will my already accrued points remain valid for 3 years from the switch date or the original expiry schedule will still be applicable?

Wats ur plan?

Not taking now as I got Amex platinum travel (2 months old); Need to spend 4L in Amex; Will push Infinia afterwards

If I’ve maxed out this month’s reward points by getting 10k, but I still have flights to book, what’s the best way to go about doing so? Is there a place where I can get an extra discount on the HDFC/diners?

 

[ayman]

Plastic DCB is no more

Plastic is still being issued for those who already have maybe for new they are not issuing anymore. Received my new plastic one today as the old was about to expire next month.

One question regarding DCB in Gyftr SmartBuy Portal.

Can we use multiple numbers to get 3X rewards on amazon vouchers?
Note, since there is a montly capping of 7500 and daily capping of 2500.
We can not buy more than ~60,000 vouchers per month.

Same here at renewal

 

[shake-all-Sphere]

I read somewhere that the smartbuy capping has been increased to 10k points up from 2.5k points daily. Is that true?

Also, I hold Millenia since May 2022 and have a credit limit of 4L. I qualify for their salary eligibility and have classic account with them since 2+ years

Will they upgrade my card to DCB Metal FYF?

Your eligibility for an upgrade to the HDFC Bank Diners Club Black Metal card, it depends on various factors including your credit history, spending patterns, and relationship with the bank. Having a credit limit of 4L and meeting the salary eligibility criteria is a good start. HDFC typically reviews accounts periodically for potential upgrades, but you can proactively reach out to their customer service and inquire about the possibility of upgrading your card to the Diners Club Black Metal edition with a fee waiver. I have Business regalia they didn't upgrade me even after having 6.5 L limit and usage of 10 lac per annum so it all depends on mix of factors

 

[shake-all-Sphere]

I have got an upgrade offer from DCB plastic to metal? Is it worth upgrading it to the metal version now or wait for Infinia upgrade offer? Current credit limit is 7.5L

it doesn't impact your prospect for Infinia Upgrade even if you do upgrade to DCB metal so you can upgrade.

 

[shake-all-Sphere]

gotcha, thanks. and after 6 months will that 5/6L spends criteria apply or are they basically upgrading everyone to the metal card by default?

No they are not upgrading everyone.
