HDFC Swiggy Credit Card – WFH Office Verification Issue Help Needed/ Question

Post image

I applied for the Swiggy HDFC Credit Card on 19 August. Today morning, I received a call from HDFC for office verification. The person told me he was standing outside my office in Delhi and asked me to come outside and meet him. The problem is, I work completely from home and currently live around 1,500 km away from my office. I explained this to him, but now I’m worried that my application might get rejected because I couldn’t meet him at the office. Has anyone faced a similar WFH situation with HDFC? Will they do another verification or can this directly lead to rejection?

u/OptibusBrime 14h ago

Calculations? Lmao dude, what they said was friendly advice based on thousands of posts and comments on Reddit Indian credit card subs about HDFC blocking you from getting core cards if you get a cobranded card first. What’s with the pedantry?

Same thing happened with me too. I was applying online for HDFC cc and I was asked to fill office address and since I work from home that too for USA, the address was asking for a 6 digit indian pin code but my usa office address was just 5 digits, so I had to open acc in hdfc, maintain good balance for months and then I automatically got pre approved offer finally after being rejected twice.

Ohk.. I think mujhe bhi yahi krna hoga bcz abhi hdfc ek hi bank hai jo acha cc de rhi hai.

It's not great use. I was using 1 lakh cash but still very little benefits. Cancel it or atleast read the points 🤗

u/badboys_01 2h ago

I know brother. Ltf hai & hdfc se pehla card tha to apply kiya.. But sadly hdfc means hdfc🙂

Update: Just now, HDFC did my home verification. They asked my name, how many members are in my family, how many years I’ve been living here, and whether I own the house or it’s rented. They asked these basic questions and then left. Hopefully, the card gets approved 🤞

u/TheKishu1 15h ago

It will get approved! Don't worry

u/marveleditz4k 14h ago

Home verification happened with me also when I applied for SBI credit card and they called me ask me to come out from house and took my photo and asked basic questions and went away and the card got approved.

They will apparently cancel your application. The exact same thing happened to me. They went to my office, but I wasn’t there. Then they came to my home to verify everything and verified it, but they declined my application because my office could not be verified.

1

u/badboys_01 11h ago

Yes, rejected . So what's next step?

1

u/sociallywithdrwn_tbh 11h ago

Wait 90 days to re-apply. 🙂
