Yes Bank MARQUEE Credit Card
As you guys already know, YES Bank is revamping their CC protfolio recently , I took a dive and got their latest offering "MARQUEE" CC in the Premium segment ..
I am NTB to Yes bank until now...
I actually liked the name of the card and also its physical appearance.. very appealing looks ...
I got the card mainly for its Unlimited International Lounge Access ( for both Primary and Add-ons) and some reward points for Govt Transactions.
Online Spends rewads rate is also good @4.5% ( if redemeed for Flights and Hotels @0.25)

3. They replied on 3rd and told to visit branch or send filled application to Chennai office
4. Sent dilligently filled application form with aadhaar, pan and passport copies to Chennai office
5. Wrote to them, for enquiring status
6. They informed that they hadn't received it (inspite of bluedart having confirmed delivery)
7. They traced it after 7 days on 30th March and replied back with instant rehection of application citing 'Not authenticated' even though the kyc documents were signed by both me as well as the addon applicants.
8. I was enraged and wanted to escalate it further so wrote to their PNO on 1st April.
9. On 4th April, I received a verbatim reply of the same response as level 1.
10. Being enraged further, decided to escalate with RBIO on the same day.
11. Filed a petition with them highlighting Yes Banks intention to renege on their offering of lounge access for addon card holders.
12. Next day evening, I received a call from their cluster head for Mumbai who personally visited my residence with his assistant on the same day evening to collect the KYC documents.
