Let's see things from a win-win perspective. Even in the current format the Magnus with Burgundy will provide super-normal benefits. The customer benefits from that. But how will the bank benefit? Not through those customers who only want to "milk" the card. But from those customers who route high value transactions through the bank, whether through savings, FDs, salaries, etc. They're offering a super-premium card for super-premium customers. As long as the customers play fair the bank will play fair. It's only natural.
 
I applied today for the Magnus card, where there was zero joining fees or Annual Fees until I manage my Burgundy status for same.

Also open a Burgundy for my sister as well.

I maintain my status via Salary currently. But soon planning to move funds in the accounts as HDFC is giving hard time since past 7 month with account upgrade.

Attach is the sms I received from them

What was the process that you followed? I am thinking that you may fall under some criteria that has been now set by Axis for the free Magnus + Burgundy. The new Burgundy account the you opened for your sister also qualified for this offer? Also is this FYF or LTF?

In my opinion, I think axis will put a spend based condition for certain features on the card, if they DO decide to give Magnus LTF to Burgundy holders. Currently the Select card for Burgundy is LTF, however international lounges access requires spends to be done in the first year to get the renewal in the next year.Then issuing a card LTF would make sence as it will be spend based to avail features on the card.
 
Is it worth paying 59000 for the burgundy private card to get 5:4 conversion ratio and 0 forex charge?
Currently it gives 15 edge points (12 partner points/miles) on every 200 spend.

Or would it be better to take the Atlas card?

You get Burgundy Private card complimentary with Burgundy Private relationship with Axis Bank. If your Burgundy Private relationship is being discontinued, you'll have to pay 59K but it doesn't make sense to pay that amount unless you have heavy international spends. You cannot apply for Burgundy Private card separately.
 
I've asked my Axis Credit Card Contact (who's specialises in 'Bury-gandhee') to check with his seniors and get back to me with clarity.

I hope to add to the confusion as soon as he reverts.
I checked with my guy and he said card is LTF for burgundy customers omers untill they have burgundy relationship.

Even if it is ; it's not yet implemented as evident by my earlier comment
Magnus card is not going to be free under any circumstances whatsoever
that is clearly mentioned in the terms and conditions.
You have to be pay joining and renewal fees for Magnus even if you have a Burgundy savings account

This is incorrect. There is a Burgundy relationship and there is Burgundy Private relationship 🙂 Please review once and you'll get the idea.

Congrats to all of us if this is the Magnus for Burgundy.
