CC AF due - cancel, downgrade, or...
Subject says it all. Called Barclay today. No retention offer and no option to downgrade to no-AF F9 card. Interestingly they can convert it to Barclay Rewards MC or Arrival-. The former has 10K bonus after spending $1k. I forgot to ask if A- comes with std 20K bonus after $1k. If so, that might be the best option (I was thinking of getting it anyway and this saves a HP).
Has anyone converted it to A- and got 20K?
I only have 10K in F9 acct, so not worried about losing miles (will use it before then).

Sorry I can't contribute as far as converting to one of the other cards, I just recommend not canceling. At the very least go to the no-annual-fee version.
