If you want only one, and you don't want 30L TRV option, then you can go for 10L AQB option.
And if you don't want to go for this option too, then you would have to let go of LTF M4B..
I am not going to keep 10 lakhs in savings account for sure. And after so many change in regulations, I dont trust Axis would keep its word for long.
I am more interested in 5:4 ratio than making it free. Anyways, I am going to close my Axis Reserve nearing to its renewal and Axis Magnus next year (I have hit the spend milestone for fees renewal this year).
 
Dear Axis Bank

I see that you have smartly changed the TNC's recently without informing the customer. I am attaching the two versions. This is open Fraud by Axis.
Basically Axis Lured customers from July to September to Open Burgundy accounts to Convert Magnus to Magnus for Burgundy. People fell for it as they had loads of inflight Reward Points which get devalued
Until End of September you have told that AQB of 10 lacs are eligible for new customers who have completed 45 days and OGS is generated
Then Silently changed the TNC's in the backend saying for AQB you have to complete 3 months making them ineligible while smartly eating the interest of people's money.

I am attaching the 2 versions for RBI to make a note of it

The email I sent

I am also going to draft an email using your email. Moreover, I will add the part where they mentioned Burgundy Family criteria in the initial Magnus document and then removed it at the last minute. So, this is also misleading a customer.

I would request not one or 2 but all who were maintaining 10 Lacs AQB should escalate and keep chasing RBI..Keep Axis in loop. I am sure RBI will put some penalities on Axis.. we should be huge in number so that Axis cannot escape with this fraud

I'm not sure how many folks would see this msg, but if you could post a new thread by adding relevant tags, asking folks to send the email, that would be having more reach.
You could point out the differences, both the PDFs, and email IDs.

I think technically there is no case against Axis though. AQB / Average Quarterly Balance by definition is three months average balance. And many people expected 3 months wait even when it wasn't explicitly mentioned.

If you read the first version they clearly mentioned 45 days of wait for AQB. Also there are email from Axis. Also there is always a case even if there is intentional Misleading TNCs. RBI is very strict about it.

If Axis wanted to be strict on AQB, they should have released the FAQ before September end. They have released it during the last week of September with a offer end date of Nov 30.
They might as well have not given the offer if they didn't want to give new customer the 3 months time to get 3 OGS.

This is misleading and a lot of people have moved funds into Axis and opened accounts. Axis is generating revenue on these amounts and not delivering on their promise.
 
What have they changed? What is the change that you noticed..
PFA PDF that I had saved on 11 Oct Midnight.
Hi _aks Are you sure you downloaded this on 11th October. I am trying to figure out when they changed the FAQ from backend which changing the Link details.

Folks please help me with the date when the first version was released. Required for the another Complain with RBI and Centralized Public Grievance Redress

I do not care for the Card now not Axis should not be spared for fraudulent practices and other banks should also be care before indulging into such frauds

I'm not sure which version is that but I downloaded it at:
Oct 12 00:22 magnus-credit-card-for-burgundy-faq.pdf i.e. 12:22AM on Oct 12.
 
I was charged annual fee on Magnus on 13th Oct (still in unbilled). I called customer care to check if any retention offer available . I spent around 10 lac last anniv year. It was refused. I then called procedure to close. They said you need to clear dues. I told It is alraedy in credit but you have added annual fee. They said, You need to clear that and it will not be refunded. Is it the right behaviour. If i do not want to continue with the card, why fee should be levied. Fee is for next year, not previous year. Had already paid 10000 joining fee last year.

Regards,
Sachin
