DCB HDFC Diners Club Black Metal Credit Card

[bonheur]

Hmm, HDFC looks set to introduce a metal version of DCB that raises the daily and monthly cap of the current PVC DCB.

For Diners plastic, 2500 points limit per day is sum of regular and Bonus or Bonus alone ?

Just wondering why you didn't go for Infinia with this kind of spends. With good limit on your DCP and good spends you could have tried.

The upgrade offer for DCB was system generated for my account. Although I'd have preferred an Infinia over DCB due to diners acceptance issues however that would've meant chasing RM, dropping mail to CC team , sharing documents and what not. I presume , I might get Infinia offer automatically eventually on my account.

Got it. Btw, once you know that you meet the upgrade eligibility criteria for Infinia, simply connect with your RM. He will either send someone with the form to your place for your signatures or request you to visit the branch. Your branch/RM only usually dispatch these forms to their Chennai office. You'll then know in a couple of days the outcome.
Anyways, DCB is a great card to hold and I myself held is for a long time. It's acceptability in India is fine, US too but not in majority of Asian countries. Moreover, sometimes I felt Diners had a better lounge network then PP or Dragon Pass etc.

I'm getting an FYF upgrade DCB metal from my privilege card, is there any way to get it LTF? I'm not a frequent traveller and so I'm mostly focusing on the cashbacks. Also I'm not sure if i will reach the spend limit for annual fee waiver and so not taking the upgrade as of now.

Auto upgrade?
If yes - can you elaborate your relation ship?
1)what are your spends like?
2)your card age? and is it LTF

Yep, got the auto upgrade for the diners privilege which I'm holding for 4 years now which was also upgraded from clubmiles and rewards before that. I was not much into cc game and was just using one card but off-late for the past 5 to 6 months, i moved all my spends to tata-neu infinity and has been using the diners privilege only for BMS BOGO.
