TF Select
I hold following bank accounts

  1. ICICI Bank (Savings) - For salary crediting and investments
  2. IDFC First Bank (Savings) - for savings purposes, it gives good rate of interest.
  3. DBS - Idk why I am still holding this.
  4. Paytm Payments Bank - Had opened it long back, not sure why I am holding this too.
  5. Fi.money - For day to day transactions as my primary savings account would get cluttered with few hundred rupees transactions.
  6. Jupiter - Had opened alongside with Fi, thinking to close this.
 
I hold following bank accounts -

Indusind Pioneer Savings a/c - visa infinite dc & pinnacle cc
Kotak Privy Platinum - White cc
SBI Platinum Savings a/c - PPF a/c mainly
Canara aspire a/c - For Rupay Platinum Millenia debit card (lounge benefit + swiggy one lite + LTF till 28 age) & Rupay Select debit card (spa, golf, ott, uber, gym) & MC world cc (lounge + golf)
Jupiter (+ Federal) - unable to close due to nonsense pending charges imposed out of nowhere

Pls suggest me -
1) which dc and cc (want ltf + pre-approved) i should apply from my sbi a/c?
2) if i complain to RBIO will my jupiter a/c charges will get waived off so that i can then start closure process?
3) In Kotak i will remain in privy platinum lvl only since next lvl which is black/solitaire requires family nrv of 1 cr which is not possible so at this lvl can i ask for upgrade to white reserve as LTF and will i actually get it?
4) In indusind one can I ask for upgrade to pioneer legacy cc as LTF and will i actually get it?
5) where it is best for me to open a salary a/c? (you can suggest me any bank)
Also i have heard that Indusind has pioneer only branch so if anyone has ever went to that one then what is so special about it like is it worth visiting once?

5) currently, best one would be HSBC salary account only if u have strictly 3 lakhs + in hand salary, which will get u HSBC Premier account with HSBC Premier CC

How idfc gives interest
 
gives 3% on first 5L then marginal amt. after 5L gets 7% (huge)
If it was 7% for whole amt then it will be good which was the case during earlier days but after d'évaluation it's not the case now.

Any other bank gives like this and also safe?
 
I am going to just keep it to 2 bank account.

1. Investment / Salary
2. Daily transactions account linked with Gpay.
3. Backup upi account since account in no 2 is SBI , and upi can go anytime down in that.

initially i had 4 but 3 is fine now.. Emergency fund i will keep in my wifes account where FD rate is more.

A good move. I was also thinking to do same.
After DC charges for IDFC I blocked dc to avoid charges and now will close account.

My secondary acc is idfc and I have SBI as well so will use sbi as secondary

Thinking to do this but idfc is more better than sbi for upi TXN so that makes me to wait
 
As of now, I have
1. Staff CA in SBI (for Pension). No DC.
2. Staff SB in SBI (for investing). No DC.
3. Kotak811 Super (all UPI). Physical DC.
