I am 28th July applicant waiting for my State Bank cc charge.10 days back i checked with bank if my international credit limit is activated on card.I was assured that it is activated. Today I again checked with bank if any transaction attempt has been made on my card. The person told me that no transaction has been declined.When I again checked for international credit limit ,I was shocked to listen that it is not activated. I made a request to release the international credit limit immediately and I was told that it will take 24 hours.
Mu advise to all those CC as mode of payment to ensure that the card is activated for international transaction and the limit is sufficient for paying the fees.
I FEEL DD IS THE SAFEST MODE PF PAYMENT.
I note that 26 ,28 and 29 July are waiting for CC charge.
Please report if anybody of above dates has been charged.

Guys,

I was wondering if someone may clear my apprehensions. My IELTS is going to expire on 15th January, 2015 and my application reached at CIO on 29th October, 2014. Would that be ok ?

Hi folks,
My Credit Card CVV is a 3 digit number which starts with 0. As I put the 0 as the first digit, it was omitted automatically by the acrobat reader. I tried on other PCs, it was also the same; so I just typed "xx" instead of "0xy". I wonder whether there is a difference between "xx" and "0xx" or even "00xy" for a CVV and why the form is like that? Does anyone have the same experience? My application is at CIO now. I asked some guys, hey told me that you should have written by black pen instead.
Thanks
