No way they are waiving $550. But I’ll try with the Platinum Schwab I just got in order to cash out 200K points. They’ve never waived my gold card when I’ve tried and I’ve had that card over a decade.
I’m done with AmEx after this because I just don’t use the points anymore.
I find the Chase Sapphire to be my most attractive card. I’m canceling that one too though. 2% cash back is where’re it’s at for me from now on.
I got the Apple Card solely for Apple purchases and gas pumps and sketchy web sites. I don’t use gas pumps or sketchy web sites all that often but I’m convinced I’ve been skimmed twice on pumps and it will be nice to have a new number at the tap of a button in the Wallet app.
I actually don’t find the Apple Card very attractive, and don’t like how heavy it is. BTW, you don’t get a physical card by default. I think Apple clearly wants to steer folks to Apple Pay so I have no idea why they put all this effort into the physical card.
- jasongill 7y agoI've been an Amex cardholder for 19 years and never paid an annual fee. They waive it every time, both for business and personal cards. If you aren't an active user of the card then I could see them pushing back but I've never had any issue at all - it's a 5 minute call for me.
