Airtel Axis rejected multiple times

Hi all

Just went through a disgusting and utterly disappointing experience while applying for Airtel Axis bank credit card.

Application 1:
I was reached out by an Axis bank associate in December pitching the Neo card. I asked them for Airtel card instead and of could be LTF. The agent and her manager pitched that if I use 5% of my limit in first year then the card will be LTF. Was suprised, so asked for proof multiple times. One day she replied don't to waste her time and some other gibberish things in a very disrespectful way. Dropped off!

Application 2:
Have it another try and applied via an agent in the offline mode at my hometown. It was C2C application against my ICICI Rubyx Card with 7.5L limit. The agent said that the card won't be rejected since my CIBIL is 750+. Rejected! Asked for the reason but got no clear answer.

Raised it to Mr. Sanjeev Moghe(Head Card Payments) and Mr. Amitabh Chaudhry (MD & CEO). Mr. Sanjeev redirected to someone and asked them to get it facilitated. Was reached out by someone from the regional team to reapply.

Application 3:
Applied again on basis of salary with surrogate approvals beforehand. Due to a glitch in their app, aadhaar address was picked partially. The populated address was non-editable. Got a call that this application will be rejected due to address mismatch and agent asked to reapply.

Application 4:
Rejected again stating that another application is in process. Application 3 was never rejected and it caused the 4th one to be rejected.


Received rejection against application 3 without any reason. Got a call from the agent that they can't get the card allotted. When I asked for reason, they said the same baseless "due to internal norms".

The card was rejected even with a decent credit history and salary. Rejection reason was never communicated.

Axis is shit. Can anyone suggest how can I know the rejection reason atleast?

-----------
CIBIL: 774
Experian: 861

Currently hold the following cards:
1. ICICI Rubyx- LTF with 7.5L limit
2. ICICI Amazon Pay- LTF with 7.5L limit
3. SBI Pulse: FYF with 45k limit
4. SBI Cashback: FYF with 80k limit

Have a customer ID active with Axis due to Freecharge Pay Later account. Freecharge later closed it stating you need to update your KYC but never gave an option to do so

Wait. First improve your score. Bring it 750+. Then apply. You'll get it

According to me, 735 is not a problem. But Axis even reject if you have 750 + or approve if you have less than 750. So, you'll only know the result after applying

Getting Axis card is easier for New to Bank customer. Don't worry. Just bring your CIBIL to 760+

Yep had tried it. Airtel app shows the card but after clicking on Apply Now it shows Axis Bank doesn't have any offers for you Screenshot_2024-02-08-15-24-29-352_com.myairtelapp.jpg Screenshot_2024-02-08-15-24-38-434_com.myairtelapp.jpg
No need to wait bro. I was facing same issue like this. Actually the thing is that axis is focusing mainly on new customer. That's why most of the customer couldn't see the invite in case of airtel credit card and ace card. Do onething bro you can apply with a new number. In my case I changed my registered Mobile no to some other number. And waited for someday, there after I could see that my primary number got the invitation. That's why I told you most of the existing customers could not get the invitation. Try this way by changing your registered mobile to some other number. Check after few day whether the primary number get the invitation or not. It worked for my case.

Also, if you use your airtel app for recharges & bill payments, you may get invitation too. My primary airtel number now got invitation because i am using my airtel credit card which i got using another number on that account
