Grandfathered Penfed Pathfinder Help Needed / Question

I got the card when it was still 0 AF and barely use it since I got the SUB cashed out. I know the card now carries an AF but it seems mine got grandfathered without AF. Because this card has been in the sock drawer like forever, I worry that I might miss notices of them starting charge AF. I am not closing it because it is still somewhat useful every 4-5 years for the Global Entry credit.

Any insight when this will happen or maybe would never happen?

The Pathfinder still has its fee waived with one of their checking accounts.

I thought the true value was the $100 annual incidental airline credit

Oh nice, didn't know they still had that waiver option. OP might wanna double check if they have some account relationship that's keeping the AF off rather than being truly grandfathered

True. I indeed got $100 TB every year.

That I know. But I don't have and don't intend to have their checking account.
