Even after I logged in to SBI unipay it still shows login is that a bug for everyone or since I don't have savings account with sbi?

Try again after some time. The login bug happened about 40% of the time for me. The remaining 60% of the time I could login. I used it only for a few days and am probably never going to use it again, unless it improves

I did try with rs 100 and the payment was successful but when I tried with 10k the payment was declined by idfc due to genuine transaction checking. Received a call and confirmed that as genuine but again the transaction is getting failed from idfc side.
 
They have placed a debit freeze on my account. I had 40k in my account. How long will it take to remove the debit freeze?
Message them on twitter immediately and visit your nearest branch. If they don't do anything in next 7 days then raise a rmi ombudsman complaint. Btw did you ask why they have freezed your account?

I contacted cs through call and they have made a service request to unfreeze my account within 3 days. They told me for security reasons as I was using my debit card on SBI unipay.

jaha unko detect kiya ki loot ho rahi hai is account se toh turant prabhav se aapke reward points block ho jaenge aur aap kuch nahi kar paenge
