Axis declined Cashback credit card request citing weird excuses !!

hello,
I applied for Axis Cashback card on 4th july. Since the card was not in the list of pre-approved cards, I had complete vKYC, despite having 2 cards & salary a/c with them.

To my surprise, the very next day I received decline mail, citing same bulls*it internal policy.

I immediately wrote back asking for exact reason for decline, citing RBI guideline.

10 days later, I received a reply saying, and I quote "We regret to inform you that, in accordance with our bank’s policy, each customer is eligible to hold only one type of credit card—either a cashback credit card or a rewards credit card."

I was like, what the hell, I already have a cashback card (Ace) along with a Rewards card (Privilege). What are these guys smoking these days !!

I immediately wrote to Nodal Officer, highlighting the issue.

Now, today after waiting for again 10 days, i finally received a response from Nodal Office team saying, "We regret to inform you that your Credit Card application has not been approved as you are already holding cash back card product. Hence you are not eligible for new cashback card product."

Again, I was holding Ace card along with Flipkart card for very long time....which I closed last year in hope to upgrade to a better card.

So, now shall I again raise the issue with PNO or approach RBIO ??
Anyone faced a similar situation while applying Axis credit card??

Exactly same issue like yours in my case. I am holding Ace and Flipkart Axis credit card. When I applied that card even i am holding salary account and good relationship with Axis. They rejected my Cashback Card application. Even though I was already pre-approved offers of 12 Axis credit cards. But that card not approved

Wait so you mean Axis Cashback was showing as one of the 12 pre-approved cards?
