How many bank accounts do you have and for what purposes?

TF Select
I hold following bank accounts

  1. ICICI Bank (Savings) - For salary crediting and investments
  2. IDFC First Bank (Savings) - for savings purposes, it gives good rate of interest.
  3. DBS - Idk why I am still holding this.
  4. Paytm Payments Bank - Had opened it long back, not sure why I am holding this too.
  5. Fi.money - For day to day transactions as my primary savings account would get cluttered with few hundred rupees transactions.
  6. Jupiter - Had opened alongside with Fi, thinking to close this.
 
Don't close hdfc
Make some transaction everyday. At least any one transaction must more is better.
Maybe it's self transfer or to family members or daily expenses.
Use UPI, neft, debit card.
If nothing found to spend buy Amazon gift card of 10rs
Use for six months.
Don't apply any hdfc cards.
In six months if not way before that you will get pre approved offer

There is no guarantee.
You would be taking a chance.
A slim chance, at that.

Take my own case.

In the last 2 yrs, I did 410+ trxns in my SBMax account - for a turnover of 16L+ thru Smart Billpay n another 5L+ on other debits - got 11K+ cashback.
Still no pre-approved or no approvals even for co-branded cards - even when directly applied in response to their chasers.

Most deplorable n useless CC Dept (Chennai) I have ever seen in my banking career since 1980. Had 57 cards since 1988-88. Closed n surrendered 41 cards till date.

So, decide for yourself.

Yes sir
Absolutely no guarantee
I have seen some got pre-approved in less than 3 months. In my case I have got in 5 months
And surely many have no offer
So he can take a chance for six months and if no luck then he can close any time.

1. Sbi : state govt salary package acc
2. Bob : advantage (1k mab) for investment & upi
3. Hdfc : opened for credit card but they reject credit every time
4. Maharashtra Gramin Bank : local bank as it is near and all family number accounts.
5. Uco : opened during college (inoperative)

Want to close HDfc any suggestion for not closing it.
Do you face sms delay in your BOB account , when transaction done thru UPI the msgs are instant but non UPI transactions like ATM Withdrawal , credit of funds/debit of funds from other sources sms are delayed for about 30 - 45 mins
