1 Reward point = 0.60rs from Nov 1st 2016 instead of 0.75rs for HDFC regalia card

Ache din aane wale hai…

How to use them for recharge? I mean if recharged from the rewards page, will points be automatically adjusted. Hv never done this. Please explain…

@kalwa.sai897520

Oops, You cannot give karma again right now

thanks for update

Go to https://hdfcbankregalia.myreward...m/ and click on recharge option. Provide all the basic details of your number and at the time of payment it’ll ask your card details. So just mention and generate the voucher. If your recharge amount is 100rs then generate 100rs voucher and points related to 100rs will be deducted from your account.

Hope i’ve explained your query

Now Citi Premier Miles is the best credit card for rewards by far for frequent travelers! 1.8% benefit on all purchases (no limits); 4.5% benefit on flight bookings and accelerated mile merchants like Flipkart.

But it’s shocking that the Citi PM lounge list for the MasterCard variant was recently reduced to only 4 in India. How the heck could they even remove the International Departures lounge at T3, Delhi?! http://www.premiermiles.co.in/premiermiles_priv... CC @A2Zdeals @cybertechie @disclaimer @BUTTERFLYBOY

O that is super sad man…. this was one of the best cards out there

I heard from one senior dimer that if you use HDFC diners club card for flight bookings then you are at advantage (i.e. discount) but i donno the process. If anyone knows then can you plz shed some light on it

@A2Zdeals @agent007

thanks for telling bro…

Bad move from HDFC:-?

Just upgraded before 3 months to Regalia…
@ kalwa.sai897520 @ A2Z time to upgrade to Diners Black…

may be because of 10X reward poits in Goibibo and MMT…

Most good credit/debit card lounge access programs have limits on how many free entries you get. So, if you are a frequent traveler, it’s a good idea to get multiple credit/debit cards with lounge access programs.

In case you have never used airport lounges, just know that they provide a better place to work/relax and a free buffet of food & drinks. Some services like private nap rooms/pods and massages are still charged separately.

You will have to pay the lounge charges (varies) for anybody traveling with you if they don’t have a personal credit/debit card with a lounge access program.

Only the primary cardholder is allowed entry free-of-cost, i.e. don’t get any ideas about getting add-on cards for your family members.

Are you serious? I think 5 days back i spoke to hdfc cc regarding hdfc diners club card. She mentioned regalia is better and diners card is a normal card.

May be she’s not aware of any such thing.

10k is a very big amount bro. I thought around 1500 charges will be levied per year.

Update at 3:54pm: Just confirmed, they do waive off the annual charges. See the below conditions:

“Spend Rs. 5L in 12 Months and get Renewal Fee waived for next renewal year.
Spend Rs. 100000 within first 90 days from card set up date and get waiver of 1st year membership fee.”

I think they waive off the annual charges if you spend 5 lacs or more.

Waiver is there but it is offered to my senior colleague at 8 LACS just last week
First year is free
He had good amount of FDs in his father’s name with hdfc bank

8 lakhs in a year… Out of my league as my annual salary is half of it

3000 + taxes so around 3500 per year ..
and as far as i know there is no way we can get this waived off.

Edit : forgot to add that they credit 1500 points as bonus on card renewal.

By the way, I got grandfathered-in from my Jet Airways Platinum card (discontinued now) so I pay only 1000+tax. CC @gotrajk @cybertechie
