There’s no spend based waiver for this card; we gotta pay 300+gst annually; However, the way I see it is that if you have used this card even once in a year for a bank specific sale of 10% off which generally has cap of 1.5K, then you easily cancelled out the fee; Obviously would have loved the annual waiver, but sadly no as of now.
Annual fee waiver for SBI IRCTC Rupay credit card?

SBI was aggressively promoting this card last year with offers like zero joining fees and free Amazon voucher. Many people (including me) got this card approved easily. Unfortunately, this card has annual fee of Rs. 300 with no spend-based waiver. Most of those who got it last year must be up for renewal now.
Was anyone able to get the annual fee waived/reversed? Any tips/tricks to do so?
I don’t really use this card, but would like to keep it as it’s my only SBI/Rupay credit card.

Try asking them to close the card , maybe they’ll make it ltf. Or they may close your card without trying to retain you.

Yo, RuPay credit card also offered on Bigbasket, Bookmyshow, Swiggy, Uber etc
Use or sell the offer to other user and charge Rs50 to Rs100 commission
Annual fee will easily recover.

Having this card and renewal coming up in a month, I too thought of retaining the card with same POV. Also Rupay Credit Card has offers in few travel and food ordering websites, card will be useful then.

I was holding this card. Only option is if you ask for card closure then they will offer you reversal of this fee. In my case they closed my card and annual fee reversed. Later on I had requested credit balance refund. So just say like you are in mood of closing the card not actually so might they offer you reversal option.

Reply received. They did not offer reversal. I am not happy.
So just now I called the customer care and there the lady offered reversal as I had spend over Rs. 1 lakh in the last 1 year.
She said it will reflect within 4 days.
@mango try calling the customer care

I barely used the card, but will still try asking for one.
Which number did you contact them on?

There’s a section in SBI Card netbanking called “Spend Analyser”.
Check there.
Santhu4444 wrote:Thanks. I have spent around 40000 in last one year. No chance they would offer a fee reversal. Will have to pay the fees.
No harm in asking for reversal.
Santhu4444 wrote:Yup, will tweet and mail them.
Were you able to get those charges reversed? @Santhu4444

Still not applied on bill. Got this card in December 2020. I will check in January bill and decide. As mentioned above, using this for Rupay CC offers, so I feel 299 is not more. Used it for Narzo 50A deal yesterday on Flipkart and got 2000 discount.

If you are in any trusted whatsapp groups then also order for your online friends and charge Rs300 to Rs500 commission per offer. 😀

Nope. I do not want to such kind of social service 😉😄.
