Have an HDFC moneyback credit card. HDFC is offering upgrade to Regalia first Card. Is it beneficial?

If your spends are >1lac in a year then go for upgrade.
Lounge access extra in Regalia First.
IMO, better to upgrade as in the long run you can upgrade to premium cards like diners, infinia…

Agree… Conversion rate is same except for travel bookings, so redeem the points on your money back card first

I am thinking of applying for another card and have yearly spends of around 1 lac. So its very probable that I will have to pay 1000 for regalia every year. Is it worth in that case? @caks2006407 @Rdb1947 @asen

You should not upgrade for this card. It will be a burden for you to spend 1 lac every year. I too got this offer for Upgrade to Regalia First. Until or unless HDFC making it life time free, I am not going to upgrade.

Go for it with eyes closed. Better in all aspects.

How do you get to know that its 1000 and not life time free? Does it say first year free only on the upgrade page?

i don’t know, i had no intention of upgrading than suddenly started getting calls from HDFC for free upgrade and they would mention that in every conversation so at last i upgraded to get rid of that, two months later now i am getting calls to increase cc limit.
