Citibank Credit Card Type Change

in sbi you wont get welcome offer

@Digitalguy
me too searched a lot to know this.
citi rewards card is for apparel and departmental stores. right
d-mart comes under which category? departmental store or grocery?
one of the dimers said that he/she got 10* rewards and another said no.

edit:
another dimer suggested amex smartearn,
and one of the dimers said amex acceptance is difficult

still didn’t find a cr card,which gives decent cash back, for d-mart shopping

@complicate_simplify You can try following cc:
1. SBI SimplySAVE – 10X RPs for spends on Dining, Movies, Grocery and Departmental Stores
2. Manhattan Platinum – Get 5% cashback on grocery

Yes by calling customer care you can change to any variant instantly. I changed cashback cc to cashback rewards card and also they gave it LTF. You won’t lose rewards points it takes 3 days to reflect.

@Digitalguy
thank you.already i read about so many cards,but so many cards annual spends, above 100k,
i need a card,with annual spends below 50k.
that’s why choosed those 2,which i mentioned earlier.
and you said citi rewards is not useful for d-mart.now amex smartearn left

edit:
for you or anyone,who is looking for a card,for grocery/supermarkets or departmental stores.
before applying,search for more details about these cards

@admin
please create a sticky thread,
which stores comes under which category,like,
d-mart,big bazaar,more,reliance etc offline stores and
amazon pantry or fresh,big basket,grofers,jiomart,bb daily supr daily etc online websites
which cards are for grocery/supermarkets/departmental stores with clear details
like annual spends,rewards points or cash back percentage,statement credit charges or e vouchers(specially amazon) etc details
it will help me and other new dimers also
thank you

@demerius2020
thank you.these cards annual spends are 100k and above,that’s my prob(need a card with below/around 50k)

recently i read in another thread,dbs also changed some rules,i think some minimum balance maintenance or some thing…correct me,if i’m wrong
for big basket/grofers,i prefer amazon pay balance,i think you already know that trick(so no separate bank account or dc required until this trick works)

amazon pantry or fresh increased prices of the products recently, without combining coupons, i think we can’t save much.
(mine is 5+ yrs old account)may be they are focusing on new customers, not giving good coupons to old customers & prime members

now i started checking flipkart supermart, prices are reasonable, with bank discount, grocery pass, 1/- 19/- deals & buy more save more, we can save upto 30%(i don’t have phone pe,heard some coupons available there also.so combining this, savings upto 40%)
but so many dimers said without any reason, flipkart is blocking accounts, that’s why i am thinking to place a order there.

In citi, you can even change rewards card to premiermiles just by calling.

1.5 L ? omg, no thnx

@kurk
it’s not a big secrect, buy big basket e voucher with amazon pay balance(i think here so many dimers already know how and where and when to buy amazon vouchers)
and i have bb star membership too
and amazon will not block accounts like flipkart,so i prefer amazon always
but when they increased prices recently in pantry/fresh and stopped combining most of the coupons….
started checking other websites, found flipkart supermart is also good,when we combine offers

Same thing. Waiting to hear on LTF Citi cards
