barclay customer told me that they don't PC cards, but then again that was the same guy who told me that "I" shouldn't have any problem getting approved for arrival card if I applied for it right away.

I'll on PC to the no fee Arrival only if they require me to keep $5,000 on the Arrival +. If thats the case I'll PC and then transfer the CL to the SM, then close the Arrival. The no AF Arrival's rewards are weak compared to the other cards I have. I don't need another card in the sock drawer. But I'm not sure what the current rules are on minimum CL's on the +.
It seems pretty clear to me that you should cancel the card if you don't want to downgrade. The account will remain on your credit report for years to come. Your able to keep your credit line by moving it to another card, so there will be no util hit. I see no logical reason to pay the AF on the card if you don't spend enough on it to offset the fee or if you are not getting enough value back from the perks of the card to make the AF worth while. Feeling bad for the company or worrying about loyalty is just not a good move. AFs should only be paid on cards that your going to get back enough in value via perks or rewards to offset the AF.

They PC. 
I just PC'd my upromise card to the no fee arrival and got a 10,000 points "signup bonus" even though it was a PC.
Call the backdoor number and ask them to do it if the front line CSRs wont help ya.

I called backdoor few times to PC my rewards to sallie which they always denied. Today I had to apply for a new Sallie. They kept saying they kept PC.
They only allow PC's to certain cards from what I understand. I was only able to PC my upromise to an arrival, or the barclay rewards card. I wanted to PC to the ring card, but ended up just applying for it afterwards.
I think you can PC any card to one of Barclay's own cards, but I don't think you can PC from cobranded to cobranded.
