SBI Credit card application issue

[u/Soft_Perception9961]

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to apply for an SBI credit card, but I’ve run into a bizarre technical issue on their application portal. The field for the First Name only allows a maximum of 10 characters.

My actual first name is longer than 10 characters. If I cut it short to fit their system, it won't match my PAN or Aadhaar card, which will obviously lead to an automatic KYC rejection.

Has anyone with a long first name dealt with this legacy system bug at SBI Card before?

• How did you get past the application stage?

• Did you use a specific abbreviation that didn't mess up your KYC?

• Is there a way to force an offline/physical application through an agent where they can override this?

Appreciate any advice or workarounds you guys might have. Thanks!
