Downgrading from platinum
« on: May 10, 2013, 09:33:48 AM »
Hi Dans Dealers, I upgraded to the platinum card from the gold card & the mileage has posted already.
The $450 annual fee didnt charge yet & I would like to downgrade the card but not lose my MR points.

Experts, can you please help me in guiding me how to downgrade before the $450 annual fee posts.

Thanks

Why can't you call or SM them to downgrade back?

Make sure to get your $200 airline credit before downgrading.

Thanks @marcopolo
& I can still use the gold card for another 10 months approx (I signed up 2 months ago) before the $175 annual fee hits?

That should be the case.

There's a full thread addressing your situation. Did you bother searching?
http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=6544.0

Since the DD Seminar, we've been inundated by a deluge of n00bs.
ואהבתם את הנוב כי נובים הייתם בארץ מצרים
We all started off as n00bs. We must welcome them with open arms!

I would however recommend for the mods to hardwire the forum that you can't start a thread until you accrue say 10/15 posts.

Welcome n00bs!

You really should not be able to start a thread until you hit your 15th post!

I bought 2 gift cards from AA. (didnt want to do the whole delta economy plus thing) I know you dont work for amex but do you think they will credit the charge before the $450 annual fee hits?

I'm having a hard time believing you. Tell me, why should everyone have to suffer from the clutter because you're too lazy to search? I'm sorry if i'm coming across as harsh, but please think about that for a second.
