SBI Rewardz: Upto 5X*/10X* RP under October Carnival Campaign

I used my Visa Virtual DC for the October campaign. If I close it to reapply for the rupay one, do you think I'll still get the accelerated points for the October campaign?

You should receive them since the transactions are already registered in their system. But why are you making the switch?

We are close to the 30th November, I’d suggest waiting for these points to be credited before switching.

Thanks. Yes I'll wait until 30th November.
But SBI is not very famous about being on time for anything 🥹
 
Why i am not able to apply for SBI VDC?
Getting error as This facility is currently not available for this account
 
Did you make any small transaction which is less than 5K? Like 2000 or 500 etc.
I did but later on...My first transaction was Rs. 5000...second Rs.15000 and third Rs.5000 fourth again Rs.5000....Then I have few below Rs, 500 transaction
It gave 50 + 200 for 1st
150+ 600 for 2nd
50+ 200 for 3rd
50+ 0 (telling Capped reached) for 4th after that no bonus RP
Hence, Total 250+ 1000 = 1250 RP from this Sept campaign
 
Agreed. As you can see, for the September campaign, the deadline was 31st October, and people are only now receiving their points. It will likely take a few more days for everyone’s points to be credited. :hehe:
I also think so...It will take time but everyone;s point will be credited
Some one may get lucky this time that he got few hours earlier than others
May be next time he will get later..

thanks, I was looking for that 500 accelerated one but you already reached cap. I guess, I'll wait till my points arrive.
 
Update: SBI has credited Spectacular September Campaign Accelerated 4X reward points. Check yours.

@6ix9ine Thanks for tagging.

In First SBI Acc.

First Txn of 20400, 816 pts credited while normal were 204 and bonus were 204. So it became clear that 1000 pts per txn is actual Normal points only. While for one of txn of 5000, they gave 184 and for third txn they give 0 for 10K as 1000 pts reached with 816+184.


In second SBI account,

I did Rs.25K txn only. In that 1000 pts credited as one txn. 250 Normal 1X + 250 VDC bonus came last month. So total 1500 pts for one single txn of 25K. So my calculation that I may get 750 pts as 250 normal were given was wrong.

Third SBI account: (Edit: This account has confusing credit of RPs and for bonus VDC no extra 4X credited) Don't know why.

Txn Flow:

Txn 1: Rs.2630 and pts given are 26 (Normal) + 26 (VDC Bonus) + 104 (4X accelerated).
Txn 2: Rs.8000 -> 80 + 80 +320.
Txn 3: Rs. 15000 -> 150 +150 + 576
Txn 4: Rs. 5000 -> 50 + 50 + 0.
Txn 5: Rs.5000 -> 50 + 50 + 0.

Bday pts were also credited for this acc. in Sept.

Fourth SBI Acc: (This told another magic here for VDC users).

Txn 1: Rs. 3000 -> 30 + 30 and now 120 +120.
Txn 2: Rs. 7000 -> 70 + 70 + Now 280 +280.
Txn 3: Rs. 5000 -> 50 + 50 + 200 + 0.

This 4th account clarified that with VDC your Normal + Bonus pts are getting accelerated.

In some accounts, total pts are still same while statement is updated and total pts will update at midnight.

I am simplyfing for future campaigns.

The accelerated reward points has no maximum cap (it does when SBI mentions like 10K for Oct campaign). The cap of 1000 pts per transaction is for normal pts only.

VDC bonus is not added while counting total 1000 pts per txn or accelerated points.

In future if SBI runs a 5X campaign upto 10K pts then a transaction of 1L will fetch you 1000 normal + 1000 VDC bonus + 4000+4000 Accelerated Pts.

It also clarified the fact that 10K pts max. per month is for Normal + Bday bonus and not for accelerated or VDC bonus. More clarification on it after getting October Campaign pts only.


Final Conclusion is with SBI campaign in Sept a Txn of Rs.12600 was enough to get it all i.e 126 + 126 + 504 + 496. Directly 2.5% cashback.

@6ix9ine Bro, you won with calculation assumption as you hoped for 4X of both Normal 1X + VDC 1X which is true when I analyzed my 4th account Pts pattern.

What about 3rd account?
Why you did not get 4x + 4x in the 1st transaction for vdc?
