ICICI SHAPPIRO CREDIT CARD (LTF) OFFERED ON CALL (FEB 2025)

[kanhaiyabsy]

"Hello, I've been receiving calls from the ICICI credit card selling department for the past two months, offering to upgrade my Coral card to a Shapiro card with a first-year-free (FYF) promotion. I declined the FYF offer, but today I received another call offering the Shapiro card (Dual Mastercard and Amex) with a lifetime-free (LTF) promotion. The person on the call only stated my residential pin code, which I confirmed. However, I'm still unsure if the call was genuine. Could you please confirm? The phone number that called me was +912269041066."

This is true, received call on 13th February 2025 after that there was no any sms, email from icici even customercare doesn't know about this then I received sms on 18th March 2025 from icici that upgrade request has been registered on 20th March it was completed and on 21st March I was able to see sapphiro dual in my imobile application

I received my renewal card ICICI Sapphiro LTF - 1 month in advance. The letter tells to set PIN in iMobile app and start using it. The renewal card is having same number as original card.

In the past when I make first transaction in the renewal card, old card gets disabled. No PIN setting, etc. Is this new rule?

Also, I didn't got Dreamfolks card for international lounge access but Priority pass is received, 2 lounges for entire calender year. Has ICICI moved to PP?

What is the criteria for LTF Sapphiro card? I've been using coral + amazon cards (6L limit). Haven't got any such call. In app it shows upgrade option to Rubyx & Sapphiro but with joining and annual fee as usual.
