AMEX Platinum: Just saying thanks to all the tips y’all share in here. I was able to get a $500 statement credit (other option was 50K pts). Just call and ask to be transfer to retention services and explain politely that the annual fee isn’t justified due to COVID and lack of work travel! I also cancelled my Clear membership and got that pro rated refund too (or keep it and get 2 months free).

Anyone have any luck with the chase sapphire reserve??

like

Tried message through the app. They said no. Been working exclusively with Chase, have 7 credit cards with them, checking, 2 savings accounts, and a car loan. Still they said no.... 😒

I was able to get 30,000 membership rewards points w no minimum spending required.
Contacted customer service via online chat. Told them I was considering canceling my platinum card because of the current lack of travel. They gave me the phone number to the retention dept. Called them and they offered me 30k pts if I keep my account open (my annual fee is due next month)
