The best thing that happened to me was - I applied the card on 29 March (Wealth) due to easy approval (year end) but my pincode was not serviceable

Not anymore. After the recent devaluation of IDFC (1st May), IDFC Wealth CC is no longer gives 10x rp on govt. transactions but surely it gives 3x rp.

IDFC Wealth card is the most impacted with this change from 1st May
0.5% default rewards up to 20,000 spends. Theron, 1.66% unlimited.
I am very disappointed with this change. RBI should stop all the non sense YouTube videos by the so called influencers exposing loop holes in the banking system for ensuring safety and fair usage of the financial instrument. and at the same time restrict banks from massive devaluation. At the end we as end consumers suffer. People should stop abusing reward points and cashbacks.
Now my Amazon Pay ICICI card looks best. Atleast I can close my eyes and spend anywhere getting 1% cashback no strings applied.
The IDFC card practically became useless. My LTF SBI SimplyClick now looks much better
Apay ICICI now doesn't give on government payments, yes, still holding sclick even if paid, shall try to make ltf...
