Finally got the Magnus for Burgundy card approved.

Oct 11: Upgraded to Burgundy Salary Account
Nov 6: Received the first OGS
Nov 7: Called the RM to apply for the card. A guy came to physically collect the documents.
Nov 14: Since the approval wasn't progressing, dropped a mail to PNO and premium experience.
Nov 17: Received the approval message and the digitial card is also reflecting in the app.

Waiting to receive the physical card.

Thank you all for your guidance which helped me take the right steps at the right time.
Congrats. That was extremely fast for a new Burgundy Magnus card application.Salary transfer account is what they need to fast track LTF offer. And escalations at the right level would have helped . Were you holding Axis Bank savings account earlier ?

Yes. The salary account I have is more than 10 years old. While I discontinued crediting salary to this account for a long while. I started using it for salary credits from Aug 23 onwards after the Magnus rumors. And eventually converted to Burgundy Salary in Oct 23.

Okie.. So you were eligible based Salary from Aug..it just needed Burgundy upgrade👍
 
Got another call due to escalation to MD's desk. They again confirmed I am eligible. But this time told me to call between Nov 22 and Nov 30 for upgrade.

Another day and another date.
Did you manage to find out if you got upgrade approval, because of meeting AQB or TRV criteria, as you mentioned earlier that they didn't agree with your AQB calculation based on 2 months AMB ?
 
Hi All,

I have recently opened Burgundy account with Axis (not specifically for Magnus however shifting from HDFC imperia as its useless)
Already have monthly balance of 10 lakh. My RM is saying he can get Magnus approved post 1st OGS generation in December.

Question - I also have option to move my salary account to Axis - however should I wait till decision on Magnus is made? I dont want to move account and then find that Axis burgundy is also useless 😉

Same with me.
What are they up to??
A customer maintaining 10L AMB is getting this kind of service from axis.

Maintaining 11L + AMB as per OGS from last 3 months (Aug Sep Oct) still anyhow I am not eligible for Burgundy Upgrade.
Escalated to MD desk, talked to different customer care executive no one have any firm reason or solution to my query.
Clueless what to do next.

Hope he is talking about the Magnus for Burgundy. As per the TNC, you would require atleast 3 OGS for qualifing under AQB criteria. It is much easier to qualify using salary account. Axis RMs are usually having very inconsistent information. So its better to double check and get it in writing.
 
They are not saying that also.
and what about that 45 day rule??
I have no idea. This is Axis being Axis.

My AQB in the last 3 months is more than 10 lacs but not in the last quarter. They denied it when I applied based on AQB. However, I was also maintaining TRV in October, they have responded in positive when I applied based on that. I was asked to wait till next week to register the upgrade request.

I am aware of the mess with Axis qualifying criteria. However I cannot move salary to axis and then again move back to hdfc if Axis does not offer me a MB ltf (there will be no advantage of moving to Axis from imperia in this case)

Hence waiting till start of next month. Will ask RM to apply before Nov 30 th so atleast the application goes through before deadline.
 
What a funny thing, just got a call from my branch manager and asked me my problems and assured me I will get it done even though I haven't raised any complaints in last few weeks and on top of that its after my Infinia is about to be shipped any day 🤣 He was very sad whenever I said I'm going back to HDFC Imperia and immediately gave me assurances.

But as I know Ax-shit employees themselves doesn't know shit, how they can assure then 🤣 🤣

I really doubt there will be anything happening even next week
