No credit card required

That was the best feeling when I called them and closed that account!!
Call them collect next time from a payphone, if you find one, and keep them on for as long as you can!

Forgot componded per minute.
I have a CreditOne card because when I first arrived in the US 2 years ago (Aussie married to an American) it was all I could get. I think they are the worst. They charge interest on every transaction and now that I have an established credit history, everytime I log in they want to increase my limit by $250 (whoopee) but it will cost me $15 to have the privilege. Card only has a $1100 limit so hardly worth the effort. Havent used it for 6+ months and should probably close it as I hardly think it will effect my utilisation (I now have $90K in credit and 5% overall utilisation).

Should close it NOW! No need to keep these expensive and useless cards as soon as you have alternatives.

Dont worry its not a race I have a passion for miles and travel so sign up to a lot of card offers. I really only use my Chase MP Visa for all overseas spend (no fees) and my Amex SPG for domestic. I may switch my foreign spend to my AA Citi because this is at $24K whereas my UAMP Visa is only at $9K
