If this doesn't work

Call for card cancellation. Guarantee they'll waive the annual fee for TS to stay another year.

CC and banks are like rapist
they'll slowly put their D in to see if you'll react. i no reaction, and you pay the annual fee by mistake, they'll continue thrusting.

also, i think banks stop giving for life annual fee waiver. probably just the first year or two and they start charging annual fees after that.
