Ok I just called them and talked to a CS rep. I inquired about the fee, points bonus, etc and then asked if they could wave the fee. He told me no and didn't offer me the promotion so I asked to...

Funny. I actually called to cancel this morning and was offered 3 k points to keep the card so I did. Easy $25 in gift cards and I still have plenty of time to cancel before the annual fee.

All Southwest cards have an annual fee. The only way you would be able to change to a no fee card would be to product change it (if Chase will let you). I'm about to cancel my Southwest too. I...

Did you guys get all 6000 points at once or did you get the normal 3000 first and then the extra 3000 a few statements later? Just curious.

Yeah but if he really signed you onto the premier card, you'll have a $99 fee next year. You'll also get 6K points as your normal annual bonus, though.

Everyone needs to learn "how" to ask for points. There are ways, if you use a card, to get a TON of points each year. ;-)

Yes there is that risk. There is NO point to ever cancel a Chase card. At 10-11 months call for retention bonus. Also, you can downgrade when the fee comes to a NO-Fee card. Only close a card if you...
