Successful Infinia Application

Hello Community,

I recently got to know about technofino when I got Infinia and was trying to figure out the best ways to use the card. That's when I realised that it wasn't so easy get the Infinia and my experience was probably an exceptional one.

So I thought I'd detail out my experience of getting an Infinia for the benefit of the community. A little bit of a background-

  1. I had held multiple credit cards - Sapphiro LTF, IDFC LTF, IndusInd Legend LTF, Amazon Pay ICICI, Amex Platinum Travel, SBI something.
  2. I closed all of them apart from Amex Plat Travel, Sapphiro and Amazon Pay since I wanted to simplify my card portfolio and didn't want to bother about bills and spends
  3. I typically spent 12-15 lacs a year, so the amex plat was quite a nice primary card for me, but then I was given a Platinum Charge Add On card just for the benefits and that's when I started my hunt for a premium card.
  4. Axis Magnus had just gotten devalued so that wasn't considered. I was thinking of getting a DCB and a friend put me in touch with an HDFC Credit Card Sales Manager (not an agent, was on rolls of HDFC and managed a team who did all my paperwork)
  5. He called an asked what card I wanted, and for some reason instead of saying DCB, I said Infinia. All he said was that he'll send a guy to do the paperwork and I'll get my card within a week. The guy did the paperwork and left.
  6. I called another friend of mine who had an Infinia, he told me that he had to spend close to 10 lakhs on DCB to even get the invitation. I thought I was being scammed.
  7. But exactly 7 days later, the card showed up at my door step.
I had no major existing relationship with the bank, apart from a joint account with my spouse that we barely use. I still wonder, how did I get the card so easily without the sales guy even trying to extract anything additional from me.

Anyway, happy to answer any questions, or hear theories of how I got the card without any hassles
