“On an upcoming billing statement (based on your renewal date), you’ll see a $550 charge for the annual fee, followed by a $100 statement credit.

“We will continue to bill the $550 annual fee in 2021.

“Because this credit only applies to open Reserve accounts, if you’ve closed your Reserve account or traded to another credit card before your renewal, you will not receive the $100 statement credit.

Cardholders are not required to take any action on their part to receive the $100 credit.
