Nice...
so was the application via Web or Mobile App?
I've been working from hometown (Patna) and was looking out to get IDFC First CC, at least Select variant and if possible, Wealth.
So, I did reach out one of the branches in Patna and asked them if there are high chances to get Wealth CC after opening 25k MAB savings account. I got to know that except for FD backed CC (which is Wow I guess), other CCs aren't available in Patna.
Recently I got my CIBIL score corrected (long story short - my score was disturbed because of Ola Money Postpaid reporting incorrect dues of Rs. 2 and it took 7+ months to get my CIBIL score on track) and I am in Bengaluru, so, took a chance of applying for IDFC First CC despite not having any residential proof in Bengaluru.
The application process went smooth, when asked if I hold any other bank's CC, I mentioned HDFC with 5.5L credit limit. I got the application approved (for Wealth CC) without any income proof with same limit as of my HDFC Regalia CC. I was scared if at any point being asked for my residence proof in Bengaluru as I didn't have it. A representative from IDFC First bank did come to residence, asked if it's rented/owned, how long I've been living there, took a photo of me and went away. Application has been approved, card has been dispatched and I can't be more happy to get Wealth CC.
I'm yet to receive the physical card but I need suggestion on a few pointers :
- May is my birthday month, so, will loading Paytm wallet for 4k from Uber fetch 10x RP ?
- Does loading Paytm wallet give 1.5% effective cashback (6x RP) ? If yes, I can utilize this CC going forward instead of APay ICICI CC.
- Any other suggestion/pointers to make the best use of this CC ?
P.S. Those who are interested in applying for any IDFC First Bank CC can DM for (mutual) referral benefit.

Congrats!
Card is pretty much devalued now; even lounges have spend condition of 5K all nonsense who will remember and plan so meticulously the lounge visit
10x on birthday only; paytm gives 6x as its online txn
movies u can watch with B2G2 offer; large spends can be thru this card
wallet loads may be next casualty
