I have a Regalia LTF card with 5.7 lacs limit from last 4 years and don't see any upgrade option till now. Even when i reached out to the HDFC team , my upgrade application was rejected twice. So shall i close the card and go for a new card apply whenever it will be available. Will closing and applying for new open any new card for me?

HDFC Credit Card - Regalia LTF

@Anupama_Jha Any card better than Regalia(post devaluation)?
Get dcb somehow with continuous try
Since u already have regalia with over 5L limit, spend 5-6L and mail hdfc for upgrade to DCB.
*Spend - I know it's a trash card, but remember everything comes at a cost. You can just do education payment which will cost you between 5-7k but u will get a much better card.
Upgrade will be FYF, but email them first for LTF since u already holds another LTF regalia.
You can apply for a second card I think, not sure, no?
Can apply for 2nd co-branded or business card but not core cards.
No for closing
Spend on it bro for any kinda upgrade
.you won't upgrade just like that without spending
How's your spen on that card
They didn't.
I moved all my spends to it, so it was like 8 lacs over the last 6 months, they declined upgrade to DCB. Asked to apply offline.
Existing credit limit should be over 5L atleast.
Secondly, maybe that executive wasn't happy last night.
Try atleast 10 times. From top to bottom. Use chat gpt
I'll go to bank, try to negotiate a deal with CC and account opening. Let's see.

Keep spending and get the limit increased, after i had the limit above 8 lakhs for 2-3 years and spends of 8 lakh above in 6 months, i had to fight with grivence team to get infinia and got it.

Keep mailing them, each time give a different reason for your upgrade. Mine worked when i told them that my current card is not in accordance to my spends and limit. Infinia would suit me better, then only they aggreed to upgrade.
Did they give Infinia as LTF?

Are you desperate enough to spend 6-8 lacs for a card upgrade?really!! May as well write them a cheque for that amount.
I too had a Regalia ltf. Closed one of the cards after HDFC denied upgrade. Have account with them for more than 25 years alongwith other services. Hadn't seen LE or upgrade offer in 10plus years.
As I posted in another thread. LTF Regalia customers were onboarded by HDFC during rbi ban. HDFC gave freebies to keep the 1st rank vs SBI and ICICI.
The ban is gone and so is the use for Regalia ltf users. You either cancel or pay them via spends above 12L. I have even seen Imperia clients being denied. Regalia LTF users are now plain expendables for the bank.
Even reward points are devalued and transfer partners are gone.
Have some self respect and cancel the card. There are other card companies out there which treat you better.

Interesting. Yeah, then it is fine.
I wouldn't say desperate desperate, I anyway am going to spend that much money, just route through the HDFC Card for the possibility of upgrade.
Me personally don't care about the rewards, I just like to collect LTF Cards.
My basic needs are met with other Cards anyway so that all works out. The only saddening part is that I missed the Alumni offer, otherwise I could've gotten DCB as well as LTF.
Wouldn't recommend closing it. One of the factors is credit limit. Try to increase that (by spending through) and get to Preferred or higher (by keeping money in account).
I have 2 core cards (Millenia + DCB); possible with BM approval.
