Paytm has added a 2% fee on funds added to wallet using credit card (CANCELED!)

[SVK]

I used Paytm mainly for Foodpanda/Swiggy and to transfer money to my friend who ordered food for me sometimes. Also used PayTM for Uber. And I always recharged my PayTM with Credit Card.
So now what are alternatives for PayTM.
Maybe Freecharge for PayTM for food ordering, and JIO Money for Uber?

I do not even see jiomoney in uber app on my phone.

they have unblocked cards that were blocked earlier for misusing the transfer to bank feature. they should have been blacklisted permanently. instead, because of them, everyone gets affected. Paytm is a dick company.

We are suspending 2% charge on credit cards for adding money to wallet keeping users’ convenience in mind

bwahahahahaha. mobikwik was offering 2% extra on money added to their wallet. looks like Paytm has realized that they (no longer?) have the position to dictate terms.
