Just received my Hilton HHonors Surpass card! Its quite the beauty! Although there is no holo strip, just a plain ole' silver one 
I was dreading the AF hitting, but it looks like they went ahead and waived it, in the terms I have no AF for the first year! Even though on their online app, it doesn't state it is waived the first year!
Safe to say, Amex is awesome
