Agree but i can generate around 8% return on my spends by using multiple LTF cards based on bank offer rather sticking to a particular card & being trapped in a cycle of fees waiver (HDFC increase spend on its CC by trapping users in fee waiver cycle).
I am not a frequent flier so paid infinia is useless for me (I did my calculations) and reward rate is much lower than what i can generate with LTF credit cards of multiple banks. DCB has acceptance issues as reported by many users on this forum so i intentionally rejected DCB.
We were using Regalia gold for high value spends only with 2 objectives
1. Milestone vouchers: Which they recently stopped as i mentioned in my earlier comment. Without milestone voucher it is CRAP card
2. To get LTF infinia which they refused when it was offered as upgrade
Now we have stopped using regalia gold as i mentioned earlier and diverted all spends on Axis credit card in a hope of better LTF CC will be offered by Axis in next 1 year...If they will not offer, we will transfer spends to other CC.
