I called to cancel my card today. Retention offer was, IMHO, pretty lame: $50 statement credit + 750 bonus miles every billing cycle I exceed $750 in spend for 16 cycles (total 12k potential bonus miles). I declined. I assumed their hands may be a bit tied given the cost of the AC benefit, but it seems like this will be a product they will struggle to keep people coming back to. Seems like it mostly makes sense for folks who fly frequently enough to justify the AC benefit but not quite enough to hit the next elite level w/o the 10k EQM bonus after $40k spend.
