I had applied for millenia cc through c2c basis with my icici credit card statement.

I recieved 2 messages a few minutes ago:

Dear Applicant Your HDFC Bank Credit Card App ref no 21J263690XXXXN1 is approved in principle subject to Internal Checks.

The other one:
We have completed processing your HDFCBank CreditCard App 21J263690XXXXXN1. For details please visit http://www.hdfcbank.com/personal/credit_card/cc... after 2 days.


now i went to check the status of the application , and it says Your application is DECLINE.

In the sms it said approved but on site it says declined now I’m confused.

My application which was submitted on 22.09.2021 still not processed, after multiple Emails, got a call from local branch representative asking whether i have a bank account with them or not, to which i said no. Thereafter he said, since you are applying under Self employed, we generally don’t provide credit Cards to Non Account holders who are Self employed and asked me to open a bank account with them which i denied saying don’t want to bear the unnecessary burden of MAB as already have two bank accounts with MAB requirements. Then he said, he will look on to whether he can make an exception to this and will let me know. That was yesterday around 3:30 PM, have not received any communication from them since then.

And for your query, the tracking website sometimes show inaccurate status, so my suggestion is to wait for it.

Wait for some days, hdfc system is not exactly known for their reliability. Also sometimes they may give you another option of submitting latest salary slip for reviving applications that were declined at later stages.

HDFC is aggressively giving credit cards to all of its existing account holder. Just preapproved apply and get it.

Exactly the same think as OP happened to me last month. I also applied on C2C basis on the advise of the HDFC rep using an ICICI card with an 8 lakh limit. I do have a decent ITR but he advised to do so on a card to card basis. I got the message sms of preliminary approval but about 5 days later an SMS saying they have finished processing and then it showed declined. My CIBIL score is 790. I have about 8 cards with decent limits on them with the highest being 19.6 lakhs from IDFC (Wealth). Now I am unsure if should apply for a secured card or reapply online after some time. I didn’t have any relationship with HDFC but I have now opened a savings account as wells as some FDs totaling around 10 lakhs. I could keep a much larger amount but the interest rates are very low at HDFC. So hoping to get a pre approved offer someday or to try for a secured card. Does anyone know if HDFC reports secured cards as marked ‘secured’ on CIBIL? I was looking for the Milennia credit card for purchasing Amazon  vouchers as well 5% discount on Dineout. However I have found that their debit card also gives a 5% cashback. So not sure if I even need the credit card.
