Air India platinum credit card from SBI i am using more than 5 years. Recently i have closed this card and the customer service is not up to the mark, need to improve in service. This is a annual fee card and there is a no options for wavier off. Since i am using this service more than 5 years use to do on time payment.
I am having a credit card from SBI and the festival times also they are deducting the dues on time and the interest rates are high. They are charging me higher penalty charges due to that i'm planning to surrender the card. I haven't increased my limit till now. Offers are there but I'm not utilizing the same. I'm holding the Air India Visa platinum card.
I applied for SBI simply click credit card through online. Bank executive collected the documents and I received the card with in one week. Annual fee is Rs.500. I am happy with the credit limit is 5 lakhs and I get good offer on all purchases.
1 year ago, i have purchased credit card from SBI. I am holding the Air India card and there is no much benefits available on this card. I didn't get any kind of mail of SMS regarding the offers. SBI executive asked me to increase the limit but i have denied.
I have State Bank Of India credit card which was taken through Bank .I am using this credit card so far ,The credit limit was really good and it was more than 2 lakhs and this was a chargeable card .Need to pay Rs.499on yearly basis .This is a simpy save card which is very comfortable on every situation and totally satisfied with the service.
I have a SBI Air India platinum and they have offered me a good bonus points and good credit limit also. The offers on the miles stone based. If i spent Rs. 5 lakhs i get so much bonus and they are increasing the credit limit on a regular basis. In Air India, i get a miles bonus program and i get 13 bonus.
I do more transactions on my SBI credit card and its no.1. If my billing cycle is today and got a reminder at around 11'o clock and I make the due through any other net banking. It get reflects immediately within a minute which avoids late payment charges and am more happy. I use SBI AirIndia Platinum for more than 1.5 years. I will redeem my points for flight bookings.
From SBI Air India card I used to get 2 to 3 free tickets in a year. Payment updation is very fast than other banks but service is not upto the mark, and the IVR take some time to reach the executive. Its a chargeable card around Rs. 1500 on yearly basis, however they give 5000 miles I could convert it.

I am using Air India Platinum credit card for past 5 to 6 years. State Bank of India has given me a lower credit limit. There is no much benefits. I never faced any problems and not contacted with the customer service. I am using it for multi purpose. They are charging annual fee around 1000 rupees.
There is a annual fee which is negligible . I have to pay the annual fee of Rs.1500 and it will not waived off. They have offered me a credit limit of Rs. 1.20 lakhs. Last 1 years I'm using the AirIndia SBI credit card. I have not availed any kind of offers so far. Regularly they are sending offer notifications to my mails. I have interacted with the customer care and the response was prompt.
I had very bad experience with SBI credit card. I m holding SBI credit card from last 6 months. I hadn't received a single bill for it. I called Customer care. That time i knew that my card was blocked and my out standing bill was 6,000rs+. Because in my first bill cycle the annual fee was charged and every month interest was adding. but in 6 month i haven't received any call or bill from SBI. Then a called to customer care they waived off the interest amount and i paid 1499rs of annual fees. after couple of days i called customer care and asked for the status. But again it was strange for me that card was deactivate. After paying the annual fee how should they deactivate the card. I think the moral is if any one face this issue just destroy the card and complaint that we have not received any card. It was a bad experience for me.
I have got this AIR INDIA SBI PLATINUM CARD by last month. They have offered me a annual fee Rs. 2000 including the GST charges. I don' have the idea of waive of the annual fee. They have offered me a credit limit of Rs. 98000 and I'm very much happy about it. 5% cashback offers on the purchase on the Amazon website and their customer care is really awesome. I'm not aware of the flight ticket offers.

SBI is having a very good user interface but the interest rates are very high. I'm holding this SBI credit card for almost 8 months. They have offered me a credit limit of Rs. 50K and i'm glad about it. The customer care service is not upto the mark. Annual fee of SBI is quite high and they are charging Rs. 2000 and it will not waived off.

I've been using the SBI Air India Credit card for a while. The limit is very good, they offered me a limit 86000 which is fair. I never had any issues with their services. They don't have any commendable offers and promotions. Overall it is a useful card to have.

The customer support service and he response is good with the State bank of India. The credit limit value is good with the Sbi Air India Platinum credit card. The benefits and the offers are better with this Sbi Air India Platinum credit card.
Even though the credit limit of SBI Air India Credit card is high, they are not providing any sort of reward points and cash back offers. I never had any issues with their services. I hardly use this card and this card is good for shopping and other purchases.

The SBI Air India Platinum Credit card is very good for for flight ticket booking, the reward points can be converted into mile which can be used for ticket booking. The limit is not good as expected and which is the only drawback with the card.
