New Updatehttps://www.desidime.com/discussions/sbi-cashba...

Cashback for this card is calculated as given below :

Cashback amount(5%category) = 4% of txn_amount (excluding paise) + 1% of txn_amount (excluding paise)

Example : if txn_amount = 685

4% of 685 = 27.4, consider only 27

1% of 685 = 6.85, consider only 6

total cashback = 27+6 = 33

Cashback amount(1%category)=1% of txn_amount (excluding paise)

1% of 685 = 6.85, consider only 6, total cashback = 6 rs.

I've been completely locked out of my sbi card account , they don't let me login to the app , nor the website. Their helpline number is not telling me the option to talk to someone , if anyone can tell me the combo with which i could do so please help.

I login to sbicard first and keep the session alive while making a txn. If the card gets blocked I usually get a call instantly to unblock it else the portal dashboard sometimes show option to unblock it. Just an otp verification and it gets unblocked instantly.
You can try this on a hit and trial basis but worth taking chance rather than getting completely locked out.

One should not be worried about cashback..

Rather the spend is where IT department will have monitoring...will you be able to justify such spends on your card? ..

Anyone reached 10K limit? How is it calculated? Just 4% extra cb is part of 10K limit or whole 1%+4%?

And does initial 1% category transactions also contribute to this limit?

What happens in case of refunds, when cb is reversed. Is the previous cashback amount (which is now reversed) still part of 10K limit?

Simple 5% cashback upto 10k

  • There is no limit to the amount of Card Cashback that you can earn. However, the accelerated Card Cashback i.e. 5% cashback is limited to Rs. 10,000 per billing statement month. Post that, you will continue to get base Card Cashback of 1% on eligible online and offline spends.

    For instance: If your statement generation date is 11th July, the transactions made from 12th June to 11th July will be considered under this statement cycle and all eligible online transactions during this period will accrue 5% Cashback up to maximum of Rs. 10,000. Within the same statement period, all transactions made after reaching the cashback limit of Rs. 10,000 will accrue 1% cashback till 11th July.

DO you guys pay the CC bill minus the cashback credited or pay the full statement amount? I paid the difference of statement and cashback credited. I assume the cashback will be considered as payment and next statement won't have any carryforward? Is that right?

Just a confusion but may be very naive, as per the rbi guideline Flipkart cant save our card detail and everything has to be done in tokenized form, then how does it know first 6 digit of card to decide it is a cashback card ?

On statement generation, should we pay the amount via SBI portal only or we can use third party portals like cred, hdfc billpay, mobikwik, etc? Paid the whole amount via CRED and even it got credited to card but on SBI portal it's still showing as pending. Any ideas?

Yes, but all paytm txns r categorised under wallet category currently, so, this may be an incorrect credit. They may reverse the cashback anytime even after credit they can credit equal amount negative cashback!(they've mentioned this under t&c, check my OP for details).  

So try at your own risk.
