I just closed my Credit One account tonight over the phone.  When they asked why, I told them I didn't like their no-grace period, their AFs, their pay-for-CLIs, and their not-so-hot APR.   The agent informed me about the account reporting to the three CRAs (which is true...Credit One never showed up on Innovis) and I said I still want to close it.

 

Woo hoo!!   Progress!!

 

I should have said "Keep it!  I've got an AMEX now!"   LOL


Hurray!!! Congratulations getting rid of that sharky card!!!!!

Re: Closed CreditOne!!!!

Congrats on being a much wiser consumer now.

It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.....
Always follow these rules: Only take a HP for a new account. Always use the best rewards card for that reward category. Don't close a card unless you know you really should. Never use more than 35% of a credit limit. Recon as much and as best you can. Use the introductory period to the best advantage. Get the signup bonus. Whenever possible PIF or balance transfer so you pay less in interest. Never give an excellent rating when it is actually the norm. Always look for a discount as more is always better.
Always accept candy from strangers because they have the best candy or from people you know have good candy.

In short, you were glad to get rid of the card because you liked nothing about it Smiley Very Happy
