How bad of an idea was it for me to consolidate all my CC debt onto 1 card?
My Util is now currently 59% on that one card and 13% overall
My rationale was 1 payment, 0% APR til 5/14/14 and it would lower my overall minimum monthly payment ( for DTI purposes).
My scores were 747 and 762 previous to this move...
As long as your not planning on applying for new credit it was a good moved to pay off and save you interest IMO

Save money first and only worry about util. if you"re going to app.

Thats actually a good move, not having to pay interest is a very good thing!!!!

Have you glued and taped up all of your cut up cards yet? hehe..
+1 to what everyone else said -- not a bad move at all!
Any time you can save some interest, it's a good thing. Depending on your plan to pay it back, you should be able to get that 59% util down rather quickly. It all frees up other cards for your daily expenses, which presumably you'll PIF as soon as they post to your account(s).
