If you spend 1k in first place, then when first bill out no 75k points, call in AE to dispute, not sure if they will just waive $699 fee and cancel card for you

Also you can call up within 2 months and cancel the card. Also they would just give you a certain percentage of the fee back if you cancel within this time. So not really a huge gamble
