Hey guys, these days everyone is getting a notification on their phone – “Congratulations! There is a pre-approved offer to increase your card limit” SBI, HDFC, Axis, ICICI – all the banks are increasing the limit for their good customers, and that too without any income proof or hassle! But is this offer really beneficial or a trap? Let’s understand in simple words!
What is this pre-approved offer?
The bank sees that for the last 6-12 months, the card payment was made on time, the bill was paid in full, and a little extra was also spent. Just by looking at you, he says, “You’re our trusted friend, increase the limit!” They don’t ask for income proof or documents; just one click, and the limit is increased.
How much will the limit increase?
| Card Value | Possible New Limit |
|---|---|
| 50,000-100,000 | 1.5-200,000 |
| 1-200,000 | 3-500,000 |
| 300,000+ | 7-100,000,000 or even more |
How to check and accept it?
- Open your bank’s app.
- Go to the Credit Card section.
- You’ll see an option to “Manage Limit” or “Limit Enhancement.”
- It will say “Pre-Approved Offer.”
- The amount will appear + Accept button. Just click it, enter the OTP, and it’s done!
What are the benefits?
- Good impact on credit score (utilization percentage decreases).
- No more stress during big shopping, emergencies, or foreign trips.
- More reward points are earned because the spending limit is increased.
- Cash withdrawal limits also increase.
But pay attention to these things!
- Increasing the limit means your spending will increase. If you don’t control it, you won’t be able to pay your bills.
- The interest rate doesn’t increase, but if you make the minimum payment, you’ll be charged 40-45% annual interest.
- The offer is valid for 7-30 days, so don’t miss it.
- If you’ve recently taken out a new card or loan, you might not get the offer.
