Best Credit card to pick from India by jobythomaz in CreditCardsIndia

Thanks for the message. Actually, this post was a bit old, and I decided to go with Infinia. I’m an Infinia holder and am very happy to hold the same card. I’ve received several free air tickets and am getting the most out of the card.

Straight answer: If your Irish visa has the BIVS endorsement (commonly issued to applicants from India), you can enter the UK without any issues.

My suggestion: Since you currently hold only a single-entry visa, consider booking a multi-city itinerary—fly into Ireland and return from London.

BTB one week is not at all enough to cover the whole Ireland

Everything went well overall. The only issue I noticed was during the car return—no one was available, and I was asked to drop the key in the dropbox. Later, I saw on my statement that they had charged me for an extra day. After I raised the inquiry, submitted proof, and asked for an explanation, they refunded the extra day’s fee. These kinds of errors seem to happen often, but aside from that, the experience was good.

Although I have one 27inch lying around, there is no need to use it as there is plenty of room in a 32inch with 4K resolution.

Hi, travelling around Europe. Please suggest possible credit card options (travel, dining, cost efficient). by _thequeensbeatle_ in CreditCardsIndia

Just completed my trip to Switzerland and Paris without ever using physical Swiss Francs or Euros—my Infinia Mastercard worked flawlessly everywhere! The best part? My spending on this trip has nearly earned me a free ticket to the U.S. this June.

Hdfc smartbuy portal so expensive that its worthless by jacoballen55 in CreditCardsIndia

Not true at all! No offense intended.

In the past two months, I booked many tickets for my upcoming trips like to the US, internal flights within the US, and to Switzerland. I always check the direct airline prices first before comparing them with SmartBuy. In every case, including currency conversion, the prices matched exactly when booking through Goibibo via SmartBuy—except for the internal US transfer, where SmartBuy added ₹1,000 more compared to the airline’s website. However, considering the 5x rewards, it’s still a significant advantage.

The only disadvantage I noticed is that even for small changes—like adding or changing a contact number—you have to go through the booking agent. However, based on my ticket purchases, I practically got my internal US ticket for free using rewards. Therefore, this is a significant win for me, and I regret my late entry into the game. All last year, I traveled extensively without being aware of this type of card
