Own HDFC Bank Swiggy CC and Want Core Card.

[Lord]

My HDFC history is like this

Jan - Got HDFC Swiggy (20k limit) as first card.
March - Mailed for LE but got declined.
March end - Opened Savings Max
May (Now) - been maintaining 1.5L in Bank Account since 2 months and will maintain further too.

Also, been spending Around 25k from CC every month. (Never exceeded 30% criteria)
DC spends are around 5k.

Q1) When can I expect pre-approved offer for a core CC? And which card it will be?
Q2) When can I expect LE offer on Swiggy CC?
Q3) Will it be better if don’t wait for pre approved and directly go to branch and apply for c2c after like 1 month in June/July (provided I will have SBI Elite by that time) with much better Limit than I have on my any other card rn?
Q4) When can I expect to be promoted to Classic Criteria? And will it anyhow increase my chance to get a core credit card after cobranded one?

1. You will mostly won't get any core as already holding dfc ka swiggy cc unless close it or convert it
2. Someone said they got le on swiggy rather than on his core card.
3. Refer 1
4. You need to maintain in a quarter, next quarter you will get upgrade offer. Else you can request rm to upgrade after maintaining balance for 1 month ... refer 1

Is it possible to get a core card when I already own a Swiggy HDFC Card?
If yes, What are the possible ways to get it.

Also closing the Swiggy LTF card is worth it for a core card?

You may try your luck by filling floater card application form and send it to their chennai office.

It will be very difficult as HDFC almost never offers Core Cards to people already holding Co branded Cards

 

[Ekavya]

Experience:

I used to hold co Branded HDFC credit card. Even after one year of using it wisely I wasn't provided any Limit Increase. And I wasn't getting any Core card offers. (None of them possible if you already have a Cobraned Credit card).


So I cancelled that and opened a HDFC account to get first Core HDFC Credit card.

Apply Via Paytm App

Apply Via Paytm App

What ? How ? Can you explain a bit..

What ? How ? Can you explain a bit..

If you currently hold an HDFC co-branded credit card and wish to apply for a core credit card, you’ll need to follow a process through Paytm, as the application cannot be completed directly on the HDFC website. Once approved, the new core card will share the same credit limit as your existing card, effectively functioning as a "floater" card.

Steps to Apply via Paytm:

1. Open the Paytm app and search for "Get Credit Card."


2. You will see various HDFC credit cards, such as MoneyBack+, Freedom, and Paytm HDFC.


3. Select the desired card and proceed to submit your details. Verification can be done using your HDFC Internet Banking credentials or by entering the last four digits of your existing HDFC card.


4. Ensure you are using the Paytm account linked to the phone number associated with your existing HDFC Credit card.




After submitting your application, you will see an interface displaying your existing card limit. Your application will likely be approved within a few days, and the card will be delivered.

I had shared this trick in this forum earlier, but my reply in that thread was deleted. I'm not sure why—maybe the moderator removed it. I hope this post clears up any confusion and helps others successfully apply for an HDFC core card through Paytm​

Okay Thanks
I have HDFC Swiggy with 3.2L limit and their UPI Rupay card.
I can see Freedom card in the Paytm app.

But now as someone said as well and I have heard they don't upgrade Freedom or Moneyback+ cards.
Upgrading to Millennia will be possible?

 

[Deepak_9155]

Freedom And Moneyback are cursed one.

If your existing credit limit is 1lac + plus
Then u can can easily apply millennia credit card by mailing hdfc customer care.

 

[Deepak_9155]

Then can easily upgrade mb+ to millennia
If your existing credit card limit is 1lac plus

 

[anshuman115]

Then can easily upgrade mb+ to millennia
If your existing credit card limit is 1lac plus

Okay Thanks, will try it out after a month.
A month left to complete 6 months cooldown period.

Also closing the Swiggy LTF card is worth it for a core card?

Max no.. maybe it is possible as floater card...

Based on your usages and spend categories.... Swiggy ltf means it is very good compared to so many other hdfc core cards...
