Dear Indian Applicants who used ICICIBank's Credit Card for payment,
Can you please tell me whether you have issued any additional instructions to the Bank so that the CIC's transactions goes smoothly without any hiccup. I don't want any last minute unwanted surprises.
Please let me know what is the exact instruction you gave.
Have posted this earlier, posting again for the benefit of others
For folks from India who have opted to pay via CC, please note the following
Recently the RBI made it mandatory for banks to
1. allow their customers to disable / enable international spends on credit / debit card i.e. all transactions which are not in Rupees
2. allow their customers to set a limit for international usage (e.g. if total credit card limit is Rs. 300000, one can set a limit for international usage from 0 to 300000)
(these measures were primarily to prevent / minimize fraudulent transactions).
So please ensure that you
a) enable international usage and
b) set a upper limit so that the application fees can be easily debited.
This can be done either by (i) logging on to netbanking (most banks should have this facility to enable / disable and set the limit) or (ii) calling customer call center and getting this done
Also
OTP is not required; dont worry about it.
