I still keep the card (shows expiration 06/13), Just called Delta and they said that it shows at their system that I am a member with Gold card and they will waive the fee if I show the card when checking-in.
What do you think about this situation, would it go smoothly?
Do they need to swipe the card or just to see it? (Asking because I actually scratched the magnetic field of the card after I cancelled it)
