If there aren't any fees to keep those accounts open, cristianro, it doesn't hurt to leave 'em open.

But if it's just a pain to keep track of them, eh, then close what you will.  They'll still report for a few years.

Just my opinion.

I personally would close some of them, especially ones you won't use.  Though it has no effect on FICO, on manual review, many open, low limit store cards doesn't look so hot compared to a nice tame assortment of high limit retail cards.

In addition to the opinions that you've gotten already, if you haven't had a chance, you should read Fused's Closing Credit Cards . Lots of good information in there!
