This is out the door, it is no longer policy to combine any cards and that is at the EO level as well. They might change it back in the future who knows.

These accts are unnecessary. I've hardly used them b/c of the low CLs. Doesn't take much spending to drive up the util % on them.
Also, I acquired too many store cards while I was reestablishing my creditworthiness post BK.
I did a purge in 2011, axing Amazon, Kohl's, Meijer, WalMart, HSN, and QVC.
And I closed Fingerhut this yr.
I still have JCPenney, Neiman Marcus, and Sears. Those are my only current store cards.

If your Cap1 has an AF and your Util is less than 3% I would cancel it just before renewal otherwize, I would leave it alone.

First up, nice looking Garden Diamond
I'm too new yet to weed out and cut what you likely consider by now Anchor Cards that served their purpose to your expectations and time to dust the shelves clean to reserve space for new introductions better suited to your goals.

I tried to move my Sony Visa limit over to Quick but CSR told me that is not possible.
I believe its because it's a Co-Branded Card.

I don't really understand why you'd get rid of the cards, unless they were the newest cards you had or they had annual fees. Why not just keep them open and let them age and not use them?
