Devaluation Airtel app levying usage fee on utility payments on Airtel Axis credit card

[itzmycard]

Airtel started levying usage fees on electricity bill payments while using Airtel Axis credit card on its app. Might add the same for other bill payments also.

On which biller bhai ? I paid bill at 1% convenience fees last week.

It’s charging 1.24% as conv fee now! Since the max cashback is 250, on a 4500+ amount, effective cashback gets reduced to meagre 4%!

Yes if you have 4500 bills other than total threshold of Rs 2500 then prefer paying through amazon pay balance. Try small bills with airtel card and consume 2500 quota and then hop on to amazon pay balance.

Today I paid the electricity bill with no charges. App Ver: 4.117.2

Android or ios ?

Is there any way to breakdown the electricity bill amount in smaller chunks?
If I have 5000 bill than can I part it 2500-2500 two transactions?

In that case paying usage fees is still significant
