Send an SM asking if the offer is on your account and hopefully they'll respond.

Completed the spending and miles posted. AF also posted and is due in a few weeks.

Chatted them to downgrade to the Better Balance. She said that since the original card has an AF, the new one would have the AF as well. :'(

Should I just downgrade and fight with someone else for the refund, or only downgrade with a rep that tells me I'll get the refund?

I"m doing it for my wife's acct, so I prefer chat. Are those rep's inferior to phone rep's?

HUCA applies to chats as well just as YMMV doesn't literally mean miles anymore

They are holding real firm.  No AF refunds for downgrades. Will just close the cards. Got plenty of other ones.

It really just depends on the rep. The one I spoke to last week said she was doing it for me (AF reversal for downgrade to better balance.)

So u say the manager waived you the AF without downgrading to BB?
If so was it still before the 60 days? Or it doesn't matter?

First talk to the first agent for a while so the manager will be too lazy to read through the entire conversation :P

Did you only spend the minimum amount to meet the spend threshold?
