I don't like annual fees....so does anybody know if they ever waive the fee or offer you miles to keep the card? Should I just cancel the card? Or is there a fee-free card that they could covert it to?
I received a $50 credit toward the $85 fee plus 2 miles per dollar for every dollar for the first 3 months up to 5,000. Since I knew I was spening $5,000 anyway, I signed up, got the credit 2 statements later, got the miles right away, and since I'll be getting 10,000 miles after $10,000 spent per a promo when I signed up for the card, it was def worth it. The first 2 times we called up they didnt offer us this so we just kep calling up till they did.
