Yes, Chase does refund annual fees, as long as cardholders cancel their account within 30 days of when the fee is assessed. It's sometimes possible to get a Chase annual fee refunded or waived due to financial hardship or active military status, too. Otherwise, if you try to get a refund on your annual fee after 30 days, Chase will not offer you any full or prorated refund. At that point, you might as well keep the card open to take advantage of the benefits until it's time to pay another annual fee.
How to Get a Chase Annual Fee Refund
- Call credit card customer service at 1-800-432-3117 within 30 days of the fee being charged.
- Ask the representative to cancel your account.
- Request a refund for the annual fee.
- Receive the refunded fee as a credit or check.
If you decide to cancel your Chase card to get a refund on the annual fee, make sure to pay your balance in full and redeem any credit card rewards you have saved up before you cancel the account. You should also use WalletHub's free credit score simulator to see how this move might affect your credit score.

Credit cards with annual fees are worth it when they offer rewards and perks that save you more money than you pay in fees. Having a card with an annual fee is an especially wise move when it will save you more than the best offer without an annual fee. When that stops being true, you can close the account.
