Re: I must admit, I feel pretty good right now - closing CCs

Well, I was wrong about my Cap One. The AF actually hits this month, instead of in a couple of months that I thought before. So while I was logged online to my Cap One account, I noticed the option to chat to a rep online. Went ahead and started a chat session and I was transferred to another rep to handle my request. Now that I think about it, the two reps I spoke to did not even ask the reason that I wanted to close my card. He simply confirmed that I wanted to close it, gave me some sort of disclosure to read and carried out the orders to execute the account. And that was the end of it.

 

I still have the Sony Visa and also the BBMC (used to be HSBC) with Cap One, both with no AFs. My only card now with an AF is the Amex Zync, which im fine with paying. At least for now. I think im done on closing and even apping cards for awhile now. All I want to do now is garden and hope to see auto CLIs on my existing cards. I am at peace now, lol. Smiley Tongue

I closed 7 last week Zync, a few GEMB because I LIKE them on page once, and a few others down to 9 open and 22 closed.

 

did you try getting the AF waived? Or does Amex not do that?
