HSBC rarely waives the AF or upgrades this card. You can call them and ask them to reduce the AF. That is best out come you can expect from HSBC.
I agree

Try calling before they charge you. If they don't give you what you want, wait until they charge you the annual fee.
I just canceled my HSBC BB MC about 3 hours ago. About two months ago I called and asked to cancel because of the AF ($59) and the CL of $300. They refunded the $59 (for the year I was in) and uped my CL by $100. Then I just got charged the AF on my last statement. I called to get that refund and they refused since I just had my old one refunded 2 months earlier.
$59 AF for a $400 CL is a joke. Especially when I have over $25,000 CL with BoA with no AF.
Told them to cancel it and they won't see me again.
