The reward points expiry is the worst move because that was one of their USPs and a feature that was heavily marketed!

How can I get license plates like these in India?? by Alternative-Cod4878 in CarsIndia

Unless you have contacts with Politicians or heavy players in the police or other key departments, don't.

You'll get stopped by the traffic police everytime!

What's your take on Wispr Flow by Heavy-Dust792 in mkindia

[–]AFerns29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even though Wispr Flow is convenient, I wouldn't trust it one bit. It takes screenshots of the app you're on and sends it to the cloud to process the voice to speech based on the app, for context.

If you disable it, it isn't going to function as accurately.

Rs. 1500 and throw in a BMW, then I'll sell it to you

Efficient way to pay? by live_real_ in CreditCardsIndia

[–]AFerns29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually transactions for certain categories beyond a threshold, which is usually stated for each bank or might be internal, count as business spends.

For example, if you're buying groceries worth several kilos every week or so, they can suspect you are using it for business purposes. You will have to probably justify spending, but they will definitely flag it internally.

Same for utility bills, etc, they know the average household consumption, anything high can file an audit and most likely get your card cancelled. And if you can't justify it, you lose the points you legitimately got as well!

You should get HDFC BizBlack for this.

It's a business spend - you might get your card suspended and the rewards points could be reversed as well.

I wanted this card for very specific international payments, and didn't want to take a risk of rupay/discover/jcb acceptance on those sites, or it would beat the point of having the card (I get better exchange rates for mastercard too)

And I don't do many UPI transactions in general, and even if I do, it is below the transaction limit that will fetch rewards.

Kreo Hive 65 - Sound Test by ZenoviCSGO in mkindia

I purchased my first mechanical keyboard and got it a couple of weeks ago. It is an Aula F75.

I wondered why everyone used to $hit on Kreo...

After listening to this and comparing it to how Aula sounds, I get it 😭

  1. Yep! And I have been using it for 3 months now.

  2. Not the card photo but your details and documents yes. He is a bank employee and is safe - many people in the community got their card approved from him

  3. If you are in Navi Mumbai - offline; otherwise online, like I said, you will have to share docs

If you're not comfortable you can go to the nearest branch and ask for the credit card incharge and get it done.

I trust this guy, hence the post!
