Considering Closing a CITI Card that Does not Report?

So I have a Citi Dividend card opened back in 2004 that does not report. Has not reported for the last 2 years now... and is my oldest Citi card. Thinking about closing it... thoughts? I have 4 other Citi cards and other "category" cards... just one less card to manage.

If it doesn't report, I think that you should send it to MY house.  Smiley Happy

This may be frowned upon here, but I would love to have a prime card, high limit that does not report.  That would be my main card, while I keep all others at zero.  Heehee.

Fair enough. The problem is that I have quite a few cards that I have to cycle out month to month (to show use) so that they don't stay inactive for too long. The only thing I can't stomach losing is a 15k CL associated with this Dividend card.

There's no way id close that card, unless it has an AF that is. I don't believe that particular card does though

J.P. Morgan Select does not report.  I LOVE the hidden trade line.  If I ever have to carry a balance, that's the card I'd use. Smiley Happy

Why doesn't it report?  I bet they would be able to figure that out real quick if you stopped making payments.
