IDFC Diamond Reserv Credit Card

Superb design card, good for decoration
Yes
The bank is becoming smarter. They are asking for joining fee before dispatching the card..
Recovering losses of Ashva & Mayura
This isn't a metal card, right?
Plastic
And they are giving just a 500 rupees Amazon voucher as a joining benefit? IDFC gone bonkers.
Learning from previous mistakes
Short term card and few hour of happiness with idfc cards
This one is a dead card at 3K fees
These are not worth for the fee. They have joining & annual fees for AddOn cards also.
Add on the same fees as Primary or only 500+GST?
 
Can the bank ask for joining fees before activation of the card? Is there any regulating authority left in the country?
I feel there are no such regulations as of now. Ideally, they should give 15 days to 1 month free period like insurances to take a decision. There were many cases where the executives offer LTF card, but issued card comes with a fee. In such cases, these cooling period will help.
 
Itne low rewarding card ke liye 3540 charge karne ki jurrat! This bank is competing with IndusInd to come up with the worst paid cards

The Joining fees will only be recovered after some months of use. At 1.67% reward rate above 20K, and 0.5% below 20K (average ~1%), we will need to spend 2 Lakhs just to recover the joining fees+99+GST to redeem the points

Plus there is no guarantee against further aggressive devaluation. Imagine paying a whopping 3500 Joining fee only to find by next year the reward rate has been further sliced by IDFC like they did even to exorbitantly priced cards like Mayura and Ashva! Whoever is deciding the reward structure and pricing of IDFC's credit card products is overpricing every card by ₹2000 to ₹2500 at least.
