IDFC First Social Media team checked TFC and helped in Card upgrade

[aayusharyan]

TBH, this is an appreciation post for IDFC First's social media team.
As we all know, there is a fellow member jisne tehalka macha diya tha by requesting a reduction in CL to mere 1000 and then 100.

Anyway, in that thread, I also made a comment on how I am salty with IDFC because they refused to upgrade my Card variant. I made it in this comment.

I have been trying for just a 5K CLE on my IDFC Card for years and they are not doing it. So, I can understand the fruestration of the OP.

Backstory.
I hold an IDFC First Select CC with a CL of 4.95 Lacs, I have been wanting to get IDFC First Wealth CC (I already hold Wealth SB with TRV of 10L+). But Despite multiple attempts over the last year, they have not given a CLE of just 5K. Because floor limit of Wealth is 5L, once I have a CL of 5, I can request for a variant upgrade.

It is frustrating.

Yesterday evening, from their team, Senior executive, Sobha called me and mentioned about the comment and raised a request. I was skeptical if they were legit or not that time or I was scammed by someone pretending to be from bank, but I could see the SR in app, so it was legit.
Anyway, she proceeded to confirm address, salary, etc and raised a request. Asked to wait 5-7 days for the issue to be resolved and the new card to be dispatched.

Today, I got message that the SR is marked as completed and checked in my app. It was upgraded. Sobha even called me back confirming that the card has been upgraded and asking to set the pin through app and informing it will be dispatched within 3 business days.
Seriously, I was trying for so long and unexpectedly got it through TFC, without even asking the bank this time.

Nice.

Interesting. This was new since I didn't even tag them, they took the efforts to find my account details through this comment, that is commendable.

So they found you based on your name and limit? Identified your profile and called you directly..

A bit disturbing, and highlights the need for anonymity and risks associated with sharing info on public platforms, even like limit.

Although it turned out well for you.

Well yeah, and also OSINT is a real thing, the amount of information we share in bits and pieces when someone combines, they can use that to identify.

Just seeing this now! It’s a good thing that banks are solving our members’ problems. And yeah… pro looters should stick to the ‘How to Maximize Rewards’ section and the VIP section. #IYKYK

Wow! Awesome... They rejected my upgrade request multiple times. I had to close my card and apply for a new one to finally get the Wealth Card. But I’m really glad to see IDFC FIRST Bank helping our members with their issues through the TF Community.
This place is truly becoming the social media hub for credit card enthusiasts - all thanks to our amazing members!
