Only card I really use is the AARP. Going to close the Hyatt and IHG cards soon. Then I am going to combine Amazon into the AARP and maybe in a year combine Disney into AARP. In the end I only want 1 or 2 cards I went overboard with applying for cards got caught up in the excitement of seeing APPROVED.
You are one among many.
dime a dozen
Two as of today
Chase Freedom SL 8/15 $4500 still the same
Chase Sapphire Preferred 4/16 $8000
Freedom 18K
CSP 32K
Happy with both, wish the freedom categories didn't coincide with Discover catagories so much.
Amazon starting 3000, now closed.
Freedom, forget starting, raised to 4K, moved 1k from Amaxon to 5k, later closed Amazon and made it 7k. Happy (wish could use 0%, but mortgage app does not allow for any balance to report).
AARP, starting and current 5800, really like, though moving down while Discover is dining.
Might arrange for AARP to change to Ink Cash, since it is kinda duplicative in many ways to other cards. Have had no issues with Chase cards, reliable.

2005 Providian card, high balance 12,500 on $16k limit. Closed by bank 2009, paid to zero in 2012.
Ahhhh the Providian cards. I remember those days. I think we all had those. Man I use to love my card. Back in my teenage days. HAD NOT A CARE IN THE WORLD! Now I'm 37 and realize that I needed that to build a good credit profile. You live and you learn. Ok, back on topic!

Yeah I'm not that thrilled with all these categories you have to activate on. Barclays does that too. And I don't even use that card. I only did a BT the 1st time I got it and paid a bill, and that was that. With a $1k CL, I can put that to rest until they decide to up the ante...or NOT! For now, it's Chase all the way.
CSP- $21k...probably favorite overall card
Freedom- $14k...can't complain about a no AF card thats me 5x UR's on categories I spend anyway, always gets my spend over Discover during overlapping quarters
Freedom Unlimited- $8k...going to be 100% of my non-bonus spend...if you can't tell I'm a little invested into UR's lol
Slate- $2k...almost 10 years old, useless to me now but definitely served a purpose at the time and I keep it open to help AAoA
Southwest- $20k...just got it for the bonus, may cancel not sure yet but I don't generally cancel cards and the 6000 anniversary points is worth the AF to me
Hyatt- $32k...LOVE this card, AF more than worth the Anny night and platinum status has actually been benefitial to me...not a ton of non Hyatt spend but I have gotten some targeted offers for bonus points that I've always taken advatage of
Ink Plus- $5k...newest card, disappointed in $5k limit but as you can see I'm porbably close to my internal limit at that time...so far awesome for building my UR's will either app for Ink cash and cancel or just downgrade to ink cash at 1 yr anny
Mileage Plus Explorer card and RC in the future as long and the 5/24 co-branded rumors aren't true
