In the event that it is not automatically waived, the primary cardmember should present their active Continental Airlines Chase credit or debit card to an agent. Fees will be waived at the time of travel;
no refunds or credits will be issued after travel has been completed."
However, a question comes from this (not relating to this OP's problem, though): I have a CO World MasterCard & have one for my wife as well. If she travels without me & shows the agent her card, how will they know that she is not the primary member? Will the agent really call Chase to figure out if she's a primary or secondary member, or will they just waive the fees?
If I were CO I'd do right by the guy and fix the $15 charge regardless of the letter of the rule in the T&C, but that's just me.
And I don't know what will happen if she flashes the card. Most likely the agent will ask if she's the primary cardholder as it isn't noted on the account and then expect an honest answer.
