so like a lot of others, when I first started out rebuilding I ended up with a "zillion" Comenity store cards...I am sure the number of them prevents me from getting the preapproval popups for better ones with them (Visa/MC's), and I now have way too many CC's open. I am also now starting to get approved for more prime cards and the number of store cards was just out of hand.

 

I just had fun closing Express, Talbots, Brylane Home, Woman Within, and Loft, most of which I either never used or used once and never again. I have done the math and considering the new/better CC's I just got, closing these cards won't affect my utilization.

 

I just think it's funny now looking back how crazy I went with getting these cards, feeling so special after having bad credit and being preapproved for $250 Smiley Very Happy

 

Credit one is next when they are open tomorrow Smiley Happy


Congrats, Yeah give credit one the axe Smiley LOL

I shop at express often, and even though the interest and limits on it suck... The offers and extra perks for the card are hard to beat if you shop there.
