haha, this idea is hilarious.......a lost card is treated the same as a stolen one..both deleted after 2 years if never delinquent. so, i suppose you could lose a card or two or three or four or five.
although, this would stop working and could have adverse effects creating several duplicate accounts (for 2 years or so) and then you would have the creditors that simply keep the account history and change the account number (so it appears as the same account) CapOne and Discover both did this to me, and so did Citi...when my cards were stolen. KEPT acct history but new number and only one account reporting. So, what you are saying wouldnt work with those lenders....you would have to actually CLOSE the account.
