Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
How often do you see these? I wonder because I saw an article recently that mentioned that you can be somewhat successful getting these refunded. I personally haven't done it yet, but a recent "development" with a card has me wondering...
My story is about the Chase Sapphire Reserve card. I got this card about a year ago ($450 annual fee) and went about doing everything I could to get all the benefits with the intention of cancelling it before the next annual period. To avoid taking a hit on my credit, I shifted the "available credit" amount to another Chase card and left $500 on there (the minimum allowed on the card). After doing that, within a couple of days, a refund of the entire $450 annual fee (the first and only one) appeared and it has been there for about 2 weeks. I intend to call today to cancel the card but I wonder *why* the fee was refunded...and no, I don't plan on asking, either. Anyone else seen something similar?
