4+1 CC, 780+ , Self
Earlier had a long SA relationship, but MAB was quite low.

tl;dr  Applied for premier, received EASY Rupay/JCB with just 25k

[Day #0] - Application and VKYC

  • Self-employed, Added HDFC >100k as existing card;
  • Selected Premier. They matched the limit for the new card on the following preview page.
  • Uploaded PAN, DL, Aadhar, voterID, DL, electricity bill(owned), and ITR.

[Day #6] - Home verification

  • Verification person from the regional CC branch.
  • Nice guy.
  • I asked for the basic cross-verification, including family members' count and tenure at the current house. Captured electricity bill and house with house number in sight.

[Day #6 +1 hour] - Office verification

  • The same guy I was not present at the office.
  • I asked GST number and primary cross-verification from the boss.

[Day #6 +5 hours] - Visit feedback

  • Received a call from the local office regarding the behavior of the verification person

[Day #7] - visit Feedback

  • Behaviour, if asked for money, If the ID was there with him.

[Day #15] - CIBIL hit

  • 50k inquiry from BOB FINANCIAL, CIBIL remained intact

[Day #20] - SMS from BOBFIN

  • Dear X, Your BoB Credit Card application Y has been approved, and your card will be dispatched shortly.

[Day #22] - Last four digits of the card

  • Tried each day after the approval message. Card number generated and linked to mobile. I got the last four digits from the hotline and signed up in the app.

[Day #24] Dispatch through blue dart

[Day #25] Received the card.

  • I tried for the lounge key after international transaction activation. Didn't work.
  • It seems Golf access is limited to the premier card as Easy's BIN is not accepted there.

Note - 

The timeline falls during pre-Diwali and post-Diwali vacations. Roughly half of it goes under non-working days.

Are you suggesting to reply 3-4 times to their "after 12-month" response or new fresh mail each time I receive a negative reaction to the old ticket?

Strangely, I got a Cibil hit on the day of application itself, unlike yours on the 15th day. Also nothing except vkyc done so far.
