Pro Tips-

Simple way to make Any basic to mid range SBI card LTF is to "Just raise a closure of card account request through Sbi card app .After few hours you will receive a call to ask a reason for cancellation ,there tell them Either make it Life time free or cancel the card.They will make your Card LTF.Done on my both sbi card and now both are LTF.Service request to make your card LTF is taken as PCT id is to be changed.You can check in service request tracking menu.

Caution:-If you holding multiple cards of SBI then kindly do this process at one card at a time only.Do on other card after at least month. If at any point SBI Card is not agreeing on LTF and offering you Annual Fee waivers only then Accept Fee waivers at that moment and Apply the same trick Again after 1 or 2 months for LTF.
IF ANYONE HAVING ANY SPECEFIC CONCERN THEN DO DM.

Edit 1-If afterall anyone missed the call from retention team then they can simply call customer care and there simply tell them to connect/transfer you call to retention team as i want to discuss regarding my card closure request.They will connect you to their retention team and now there you can project the above trick to get your card LTF ..


Edit 2(09 July 2023)-Even people have made sbi cards having fee upto 1499 LTF and even higher varriant cards you will get equivalent reward points or miles or annual fee waiver in place of LTF.

Edit 3(15 October 2023)- Even people have made their SBI cashback credit card LTF by their skill of negotiation.

Edit 4-Now a days SBI Cards sometime,closing the card without calling so suggest now dont place request through app by self .Call customer care directly and ask them for LTF/fee waivers or to transfer the call to retention team for doing the same.
 
We wish to inform you that with vide reference number xxx we have converted your card ending with XXXX into Life time free card.

Finally received confirmation from Customer Service Head on LTF cashback card over email.
 
My annual fee was waived on 3rd December, 2023 as i had spends more than 8 lakhs on my sbi cashback card. Today, I raised the closure request from SBICard app and received call back just now. They declined to offer me lifetime free and said that your contribution level is showing newbie/new and it refreshes every 3 months and told me to call back after 3 months and then i asked how it increases and they replied that it increases with the spends on the card. Also, they had made my other simplysave card LTF on 1-3 November. Is everything thing correct? Can i get anything till then? 😝

How was your spending pattern across months? Equal or did you majority of the spends early this year
 
I tried to convert LTF but they reversed my annual fees. Said call us again next year we will definitely reverse the fees
They will do it next year.. you can even call them after 6 to 8 months after decent spends..
They will do it.. Spends is the criteria here..
