Summary: Federal Bank & Fi Money customers will experience increased service charges from June 1st, 2024. This affects Virtual & Physical Debit Card issuance, account closure, and AMB requirements.
Article: In an email, Federal Bank notified customers of changes in service charges for Federal Bank-Fi Money & Jupiter Accounts. From June 1st, 2024, customers will face revised fees in various banking areas.
Virtual Debit Card Charges: The issuance of a Virtual Debit Card will now cost ₹354 (including GST), an increase from previous pricing.
Physical Debit Card Charges: Customers will be charged a flat fee of ₹399 (including GST) for the issuance and maintenance of Physical Debit Cards. This applies to all account types except Salary Accounts.
Account Closure Charges: Closure of Fi Money accounts after 14 days of creation will cost ₹299 (including GST). This applies to all account types.
Zero Balance Accounts: All accounts, including Standard, Plus, and Infinite, must now maintain a minimum monthly average balance (AMB). Specific requirements have not yet been disclosed. These changes may disappoint customers who opened accounts in early 2021 when fees were lower.

They are dependent on the Federal Bank.

Federal Bank has now crossed limits. It has introduced annual fee for fi Virtual Debit card. I am using this account for small transactions and never keep balance more than 3000. Really hard to continue the association with Fi. I will wait for official Fi communication and then decide to continue further or not.

With reference to your query, as of now there are no charges for virtual debit card and charges for account closure will be applicable from June 2024

This is the change in trend for all banks, only timing is the difference, now or sooner but its inevitable.

What is the end game for these neo banks? What type of customers they are targeting? how would they attract normal customers with these charges. Only thing good in Fi is the US Stocks and Direct Mutual Funds in which you can fund and withdraw directly from your Fi account

I would hate to close FI as UI is pretty good, no UPI Failures.
But never heard charges for virtual debit card in my lifetime, that's gonna make me close my salary account with them even though no charges are there for salary holders

Why we need to close the account? Leave, it will go to dormant state after a year.
