Sbi prime closure/downgrade

[Shroud]

I have Sbi prime card which I no longer intend to use and thinking of closing it. I have some questions regarding the call from retention team -

1) Can I negotiate this card for conversion to LTF?
(Has anyone on the forum been successful in getting this card LTF?)
2) Can I ask them to downgrade this card to sbi cashback cc?
3) Should I ask them to give me Simplyclick/Simplysave LTF just for offers?
(These cards are way too pathetic to even keep in wallet but still....)

3. Probably yes.

Downgrade possible but chargeable.

LTF is only possible after card issued & spend at some extent.

Sorry, not an answer, but which card is going to replace your Prime? I just want to know as I have the same card, and I might follow you.

I'm trying to get AU Zenith LTF as my company is in the employer list so it would have similar benefits offered + extra railway lounge access and 5% on dining as well

It looks like an interesting card; dining 5% is excellent considering that you can directly swipe without going through different apps. I don't know how stable is the bank setup though.

Some of my friends are pretty satisfied with the bank's services especially their digital products. So, I thought I would also give it a try

How to check if the company is on the employer list? If you are getting it as LTF, it's an amazing offer!

You can put a card closure request via SBI Cards app... they will call you to confirm

Thanks for the info. Should I negotiate or something ?

Any advice ?

You can negotiate on fees reversal or making card LTF. Ask for LTF first, if they don't agree then fees reversal

So should i skip all these steps and don't select anything and when they call I should negotiate ?

I have not seen this menu, hence not able to suggest anything. But no harm in clicking annual fees reversal button. Do it and see what happens. If they don't reverse, you can always raise card closure again

thank you for the information, appreciate it.

Don't select any option and skip..... When they call, firmly ask for LTF only....... If they deny, just ask for fee reversal and say that you were able to see option in website...... Btw, how old is your card and how much have you spent on it?
