You chose a fitting username 🤣

Did you even try reading the first few pages, or for that matter, even the last few pages of the thread? Or did you simply find the thread and ask your question? 🤣

i thought i started a new thread ..shh 🤣 .so do u have answer or just jokes
 
Will I get 8000 welcome reward points on above 1000 rs first transaction If I buy from Flipkart using my wealth debit card? Or is it only for the shopping on idfcreward portal?
 
Thank you everyone for this thread and comments. I have just opened 25k MAB account. I see the value in cashback for CC bill pay as well as PA Insurance of 35 lac.

1 Question: Anyone upgraded to Select Account and still holding normal debit card and getting rewards for that normal card? Just like Indus, can we hold multiple debit cards here?

I've been upgraded to Select Account few months ago. Debit card gets upgraded automatically. We can't keep regular one after upgradation. Neither we can keep multiple debit cards active here.
 
Has someone recently opened account in last 6-8 days? If yes, then rewards on debit is being received?
Guys, Can someone help me with this ? My account was upgraded to wealth & have stopped receiving points post that and also new account of family member also not receiving points. Is there any Cooling period / TAT post which new accounts or ugraded accounts receive points?
