Not paying annual fee
« on: March 14, 2018, 08:45:33 AM »
If I cancel an amex card shortly after I was charged a annual fee will I still have to pay it?

Within 30 days of being charged the AF, the fee will be refunded or waved if you close or downgrade the card.
If you downgrade, I think you get a prorated refund even after 30 days.
