She canceled the card. Started to kind of regret it as it may be harder to get the miles needed to redeem for an award without buying. Has anyone ever gotten that offer? I didn't think they had a $0 annual fee card.
My husband just got this offer a minute ago when we called to cancel. I haven't heard anyone mention it before but accepted it after confirming it's a us airways no fee card.

Miles earning is crap (1 mile/ $2) but she threw in 5k miles for 1k spend in 90 days.
