Drill down on the ** and you'll find that it's a limited time offer through October. That prompted me to call and I was told "it's not cancelled, just changing". Please post what you find out.

We got the same email.. it said that we needed to pay a $25 yearly fee to keep getting the 5% deal on the fuel purchases.

I called them and found out that if you have an employer and start a minimum of $250 direct deposit a month into your Pen-Fed acct, they won't charge a yearly fee and will keep giving you 5% on fuel purchases.

You can also do a Money Market CD with them for $1000.
6 month pays .3% and 1 year pays .5%
that will move you into a status that eliminates the $25 yearly fee and keeps the 5% on gas purchases.
