HDFC Infinia & DCB devaluation - airline/hotel partners transfer ratio reduced

[hritiksakshi]

HDFC Bank has indirectly devalued their Infinia and DCB credit cards by reducing the conversion ratio from 1:1 to 2:1 for some partners, namely - Accor, Lifemiles, and Turkish. This change will take effect from 15th January 2024.

Therefore, the last date for a 1:1 transfer to the aforementioned partners is 14th January.

I don't find Singapore Airlines on the miles transfer page - https://offers.reward360.in/infinia/miles_transfer/partners

Is the transfer to SQ made by some other method?

Good grief. Why do they need to make it so complicated.

In what way is Infinia better than Magnus Burgundy + Atlas?

 

[d3rvish]

The ticker/banner about the change in transfer ratio does not seem to display on the Smartbuy homepage any longer.

That is the old method. They didn't move Krisflyer to the new method.

Are bhai, Neeraj ka tweet utha liya 🤣

Usually he makes lot of errors in his communication. dont worry till officially rolls out.

Let's wait for the official email before jumping on the bandwagon.

We have been talking about the Infinia reserve for quite some time. They might be devaluing for that card or just because Infinia does not really have competition.

Cannot judge from the limited information. Until the final announcement from the bank, we cannot be sure.

Sent mail to Infinia customer care. They told nothing planned as of now.

I am new to miles convertion, so this might sound silly.

We can book flight tickets from Smart Buy where 1 point is ₹1 right? And generally for a ticket which costs ₹5K I observed we would need more than 5K miles, so what is the use of miles conversion? I just checked the miles required for domestic flights between Hyderabad, Bangalore, Vishakapatnam and Delhi.
