Looks like the strategy of lowering the CL and getting AF refunded only works for year one? Anyone has success with getting AF refunded by lowering CL in year two?
I just kicked in year two, AF posted, and I paid. then called to have CL lowered to $1,000. No AF refunded so far. It's been only a week though. |

From what I read here the trick doesn't work in year two but I haven't yet seen if the trick continues into year two for those who were successful in year one |

I got the card in December of 2014, lowered it to $1000 shortly there after and the annual fee was refunded. I left the credit line at $1000. I have NOT yet been charged the annual fee in 2016

Just be aware that you can't use the Club Lounge upgrades in conjunction with the free nights :td:
Also keep in mind that in order to use the Club Lounge upgrade you have to call and book. You can check availability with rate code Z38. Interestingly enough, sometimes that is LOWER than the otherwise-lowest price. For example, 8/22-8/23 is 535/nt (regular rate), but only 425/nt with Z38. |

Damn. I'm going to try to sweet talk my way into it. Will let you know how it goes lol.
If only we can combine these with Prestige 4th night benefit. Maybe get Citi concierge to make the call and book for us? |

Charged 2 x $50 United gift registry spread over a couple weeks in February. I didn't tell CSR what the charges were, but he said they were coded as "United gift registry" and therefore denied reimbursement.

Yes I paid the AF in year one, and paid AF for year two when it was posted on my statement, then I lowered the CL.
Wish I had done it within year one. Is there a difference between applying for this card first versus the Marriott one? (Trying to get in as many Chase cards as I can at this point.) |
Any additional recent data points for AA, Delta, or Southwest gift cards being reimbursed?

Please see my post in #138 for AA gift card.

Z38 code specifies that the rate must be paid with the Ritz card. Might be able to convince a CSR to do it, but it doesn't seem possible based on the restrictions. |
