just close the ones that start doing it.. It’s their loss. They end up not making the fee on the transaction.
Got my handy Costco Amex and Citibank Rewards card for while. Pretty happy with the 1/2/3 rewards% I use my costco amex everywhere they take amex, ause my citibank only in amex isn’t accepted.
I had a Hilton amex card that I recently canceled. They were begging me to keep it because of the affiliation. Haven’t used it 4 years and no fees.
