Getting BCP AF waived after PC?

[CreditSnob]

Hi everyone,

I have the old Amex Blue Cash card (the tiered one with 5% on groc, gas, drug stores after first $6500 spent).  I have had the card since 2010, and have been using it for my everyday charges since I've had it. I didn't care about maximizing my rewards before, but now am interested in PC'ing to the BCP.  Has anyone had any luck with asking Amex to waive the $75 AF for the first year after PCing?  Thanks.

The rewards should add up more than $75 dollars......

But you can call and ask.....its not hurt to try....

I try to conver my BCE to BCP and they give me $50 rewards credit.....lol no PC after 12 months thou...

When I asked, they said it's for new customers only. If you think about it, it makes sense...why should they want to give you better rewards without making any more money from you? You aren't opening a new line with them.
