Even I had contacted them last month with the devaluation PDF and asked for Sapphiro Rupay.
But it looks like they are not aware of this, and ICICI hasn't even launched Sapphiro Rupay.

Try to get additional card - ICICI RuPay Sapphiro Credit Card (LTF card) based on your existing Visa RuPay Sapphiro Card (LTF card).

If you get an additional card, always give first priority to RuPay.

Any idea if they giving this as an 'add-on' to the Sapphiro Master + Sapphiro Amex combo or only for independent application?

Anybody got this way?

 

[aashishnb]

According to customer care, they're not issuing Sapphiro Rupay cards. They are only able to issue Coral / HPCL / Rubyx on Rupay. They even mentioned you can apply directly on the website if it is giving an option to do so.

Has anyone really got this Sapphiro Rupay?
If yes, did you pay separate fee for it?

 

[aashishnb]

Send email to ICICI bank and ask for additional card - RuPay Sapphiro Credit Card (LTF) based on your existing LTF Sapphiro Credit Card.

Would you know the email by any chance? Mail I sent to one I had bounced back.
Thanks in advance.

Other people have already received another network card based on the existing ICICI card (same variant card but on different card network).

Just got a call from ICICI CC after emailing and twittering them to change my Sapphiro card to Rupay network.

Even though the card is showing up on the ICICI website, they told me it might take one more month for them to issue the Sapphiro Rupay variant for existing customers. Asked me to remind them if they don't revert back.

Banks have to offer all variants and leave it on customers to choose as RBI asked banks the same last year.

Not really!
Rbi has directed to issuers to allow customer to choose nw while applying and at the time of renewal. Rbi can't force issuers to launch all cc on all nws. That is a business decision.

Most of cards are printed and issued at time of applying or renewed. So already to offer choice issuer have to have all 3 vairants now.

That's not what the rbi guideline says. Earlier many issuers didn't give any option to choose from available nws. Now they should give this option at the time of issuance or renewal.
e.g. During issuance you can choose between mc world and visa signature RG. But rbi can't force hdfc to issue RG in diners, Just like it can't force to issue in visa platinum or mc world elite. These are business decision. RBI is a regulator not dictator.

For debit cards - The RBI does not have any guidelines mandating which debit card network partner banks should choose.

For credit cards - The RBI has instructed banks to partner with at least two card networks. The majority of cards should be distributed across two networks. This requirement was introduced to avoid situations like when Mastercard faced a ban, leading banks such as Yes Bank, Axis Bank, RBL Bank and Federal Bank to temporarily halt issuing credit cards.

Credit Card networks often enter into exclusive agreements, which prevent banks from partnering with other networks. Such agreements are no longer allowed to be signed.

However, if an agreement was already signed for a period of upto 10 years, it remains valid.
