I keep the venture 2% card because I've never paid the AF. Waived the first year and then every year when the AF hits, I call and ask about a retention offer. Always get the "one-time" benefit, AF gets credited back within 2 days of my calling. Might change now that the AF has gone up. When I don't get the waiver, I'll drop the card.
