Amex Honoring Awesome Hilton Aspire Offer with Waived Fee
A couple of days ago, I covered an incredible offer for the American Express Hilton Aspire card. It came with the best ever 150K signup bonus, but also with an extra $450 in savings, via the waived annual fee for the first year. That’s a huge deal for a card that offers lots of perks and never had the fee waived before. The offer is no longer available.
Some American Express reps are denying that there was such an offer even though it was on the documents during application. “Annual Membership Fee $0 for the first year, then $450”. You can see the screenshot below which we also posted in the original article.
There is some speculation that the offer was intended for military people but I doubt it. It would have has some wording saying that. American Express pulled down all Aspire links quickly so after the offer was revealed, so it was probably a mistake on their part. Hopefully you have screenshots showing the waived annual fee, as they can come in handy if problems arise. You can also use our image above.
But so far everything seems to be going well. People who applied and received the card, also see a waived fee for the first year in the terms of the offer. There’s also no fee posted on accounts for those approved yet. So good sign all around.
Guru’s Wrap-up
Hopefully Amex honors the offer they provided and they seem to be doing so thus far. Definitely keep an eye on your account to see if you get charged the fee.
If American Express does charge you a fee, then you have to decide for yourself how far you are willing to go to fight the. It it a huge amount, but it is also possible that it can jeopardize your account or future offers.
Let me know if you applied and were approved for this offer.
