Anybody here pay an annual fee for their credit cards?

No way. I refuse to pay for the privilege of using their card.

Sometimes, if there is a fee associated with the card, you can call customer service and get it waived.

I wasn't aware that annual fees still existed.

Next they'll be charging to join Sam's Club and Costco.

no

Never have had to pay an annual fee. Why should I have to pay for a credit card or checking account? I'd be willing to pay $30 a year for a 0% fixed APR card though.

I haven't heard of annual fees on a CC in a while. Though...I don't have one, so...

A friend of mine pays $400 for his card, but it gets him access to 550 Airport Lounges around the world.

Hope he visits each of them annually.

So, no one uses this stuff?

If you're a big traveler/spender the AMEX Platinum is well worth it.

I can't tell if you guys are being serious. Don't most airline miles cards have an annual fee?

Each of them? Certainly not, but he probably visits 40-50 of them, each one 3-4 times a year. Had he paid them from wallet, it probably would cost him $50K or so...

Correct.
