HSBC Premier joint account query for Premier credit card.

I have recently opened an HSBC joint Premier account with my mother (who is a senior citizen), in order to get the senior citizen FD rate. My mother is the primary holder, and I am the second holder. Now since Premier account holders are eligible for the Premier Credit card, since the account is joint, will both my mother and me be eligible for the Premier credit card? Because according to the relationship manager, only the first holder, i.e., my mother, is eligible for the Premier Credit card even though it is a joint account. But on the other hand, I am getting Premier Credit Card shown as pre-approved in my HSBC India app, and so I am not sure whether both my mother and me will get the credit card, or only one person. Please help in this regard.
 
why dont u open new account & add urself to the family banking. that way you're also Premier & first holder.

btw, i think RM is saying bs. talk to customer care/BM.
If I open a new Premier account, then I will have to separately maintain Premier status. Too much money to keep in HSBC bank, I feel. So I want to know whether for a joint account, both the holders are eligible separately for the Premier credit card (not add-on card for the second holder), because I am already getting the Premier Credit Card shown as pre-approved despite being the second holder, while my mother, being the primary holder, is still not getting that offer in her mobile's HSBC India app.
 
I am over 30 years of age. So according to HSBC's criteria, I can't maintain Premier status with family banking with Premier status in one account. I am specifically asking that for joint account holders, shouldn't both the holders be equally eligible for all products?
u should've done either of 2 things:

1. made your mom secondary holder & still get the senior citizen FD under your mom's cust. id.
2. open separate account for mom where yours is the primary account in family banking.
