Question says it all - never saw the renewal, which was billed within the last month. Any luck in canceling at this point and getting fee back (within 1month).

American express pro-rates the fees if you cancel the card. Esp the charge cards. May be you can try with Citi.

Flyertalk's "Search this Forum" function is good at locating this type of information. Looking for the terms "Citi" and "cancel" I found this discussion from November 2006...

I once had to cancel the AA MC years ago and Citi prorated the fee.

Any luck in canceling at this point and getting fee back (within 1month).I believe that Citibank's policy is that if you cancel within 30 days of receiving the bill with the fee, they waive the fee. Call them and ask. Calling them will probably cause them to waive the fee and give you miles -- who knows.
Answer
I agree with srallen, if you are within 30 days, you shouldn't have much of a problem getting the charge reversed and closing the card, and they will probably offer to waive the fee or give you miles to keep the card.
Answer
Thanks to everyone for the very useful info - especially the last few on the 30 day period.
Answer
Actually, I think it's 45 days. I tried to switch to the no-annual PP elite card, but they said there was a problem because it was opened over 45 days ago.

I don't think that they will waive the fee unless you've been spending lots of $$$ on the card, but do expect them to offer you miles.
