DCB HDFC Diners Black card denied despite having 5L limit.

[mrtravel]

Hi people,

My current limit on a HDFC CC is 5L. I wrote to grievance team to request for an upgrade to Diners Black. They said I was not eligible as per the bank's internal criteria. Is there any way to get this upgrade?

More Info:
I am holding Business Moneyback Card
I didn't spend much on this card because of its low reward rate.
I am an Imperia banking customer.
I clearly explained them that I spent good enough on my other CCs and yet they said I was not eligible.

In my situation, I was offered the same business money back card earlier but didn't choose it, tricked HDFC & waited patiently for new offer. After 4-6 months I got new offer with Millennia which I wanted. Since HDFC wants users to do every spend on their card, then only they entertain upgrades & limit enhancement. And one should have good rewarding card to spend. That's why I choose millennia as first card.

It'll take me few years i.e. 2-3 years to get till Infinia with this traction.

Ok... 👍

I think hdfc business cards are not eligible to upgrade to DCB/Infinia.

Dcb is getting further devalued?. What's the point of having 10k membership other than 3.3% reward rate?. Smartbuy daily limit is still 2500

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to know from anyone, if I would be eligible for DCB LTF, given my institute is in the list and I dont meet the salary criteria, hold DCP>1 yrs, Limit of 4.7 lakhs?

Thanks

Welcome to HDFC. This bank have no respect for their loyal customers as they dont follow their own banks internal criteria

No idea i got this information when i was speaking about my cards with product team

I got the DCB as an upgrade to Regalia just today, any ETA on change? Curious to know if my welcome benefits will change or how it will work if I activate the card now, or hold off if the changes is in a few days?
Thanks

Hi,
Having 5L limit is not the only criteria, you have to spend approximately 4L in last 6 months.
so I'd suggest you to spend some amount using your hdfc card and then ask for upgrade.

In my opinion ask for business ragalia first then in the next 6 months use your business ragalia to spend 4 lakhs and then ask for DCB upgrade. This way you will get some return for you spendings.
