They will see how well it works and reserve the right to discontinue it.
2016: $65k spend
2017: $45k spend
2018: Will finish with $25k just for the PLT waiver, ending my DM run with DL
2019: All income taxes/etc going to other cards that offer real value
Reserve will be cancelled in July when the Af is due. The PLT BIZ will also be cancelled. Or I will Product Change to something else or a no-fee line just to keep the $55k Credit Limits open.
