Fine-print notes
Issuer product page read 12 Oct 2026: STATUS CHANGE: the page says 'We are no longer accepting applications for YES BANK Anq Phi Credit Card'; status set to closed-to-new (was open). Conflict: the base rate is 4 points per Rs 200 on the page (aggregator said 2). Confirms no joining fee, Rs 499 renewal fee waived on Rs 1.2 lakh retail spend, the 24-point tiers (the page adds apparel, entertainment and supermarkets) and the fuel waiver cap of Rs 300. The page covers Phi (Mastercard) only; ANQ Pi (RuPay virtual) terms remain aggregator values. The page does not state the forex markup; 3.4% stays unverified. || Earlier notes: MITC v18 (file reference 05102026): rent (MCC 6513) fee is the greater of 1% or Rs 199 above Rs 1,000, max 5 rent transactions per 30 days; wallet loads above Rs 2,000 charged 1%; education via third-party apps 1% + GST; utilities 1% + GST once the month's cumulative spend crosses the card's threshold (Rs 25,000); fuel 1% + GST on a single transaction above Rs 10,000 or cumulative above Rs 25,000 a month; tolls and railways also carry 1% beyond thresholds. Overlimit Rs 550 + GST per transaction (from 1 Jun 2026). Reissue Rs 199 + GST. Dynamic currency conversion: 1% + GST on INR-billed transactions at overseas merchants. Existing YES Bank credit cardholders are reported as ineligible for a second card. Forex markup corrected after an independent check on 11 Oct 2026: the MITC row shows the markup (3.40%) and, beside it, the dynamic currency conversion charge; the first pass had recorded the second figure. The aggregator page was last updated Aug 2025; the card is still in the Oct 2026 MITC fee table. 12 Oct 2026: that correction was itself wrong. The MITC prints the rate before and from 15 Jun 2026 (3.4% then 3.5%); bank pages for Reserv, Select, First Business and Prosperity Business confirm the later figure, so the later figure is restored here. Not stated on this card’s own page.
