Theoretically, or does that actually happen?
It has in the past.

i thought that was with selling the points after doing the above.

Not sure, I was under the impression that they have closed accounts just for getting AF refunded but IMBM.

I got my signup points already and still have a couple of weeks to cancel and get the annual fee removed. Any reason to hold on to it for a year?
people don't seem to realize, banks see and know exactly what you are doing, is really worth the $75?
Keep the card open for year, pay them their AF, everyone will be happy

Hi,
Does anyone know if I have to book a reservation with my card in order to get the free checked baggage benefit? I know you used to have to in order to get it.  Also, my card is up for renewal/annual fee in May and I'm traveling in June.  I'm pondering not re-upping.  Does anyone know if my free checked bag goes away immediately after I don't renew my card for another year or is it possible to slide by?  If i have to pay for checked bags, I might as well renew the card as it's about the same cost.

Thank you!

how much time do they give you close account and get a refund after AF posts.  Their policy does not seem clear.  One agent told me today you have 6 months or maybe even more!  does that make sense?

They will cancel tickets just for not paying AF, even without selling.

I signed up a couple of months ago for 30K points. Anyone have any experience getting BOA to match?

Try, nothing to lose. I got them to match an increased bonus, but that was close to a year ago.

How long after you signed up was that? Also how did you contact them? TY
