Cap 1 Venture AF credit

My AF it on my venture card. Anyone get an AF credit recently? This is my oldest card, but im not going to pay the AF. What would be a good PC option if it comes to that?

When my year is up this is what I plan on doing as well if I don't merge the card with one of my older ones.

I just had my annual fee waived...actually it's been waived the the past 3 years that I've had the card.  I do put a lot of spend through it so maybe that helps.  Chat never wants to do it so I always have to call in.

If you PC to QS do you have to use all your miles first, or do you get to keep them?

Not at all...it'll change over automatically.

So they convert your miles to QS cash?  That's pretty sweet if that's true!

  Interesting loophole!  Venture miles translate to 2 miles per $.01 if you redeem as cash while still a Venture.
