LS,

 

What is limit on PSECU?  Running it on one card might be better.  If riding a balance, do it on the low interest one.  Just be prepared not to app for more credit in mean time.  Or maybe get a nice 0% for XX month card and run it on that Smiley Happy.

Re: need some advice

PSECU is 9k and 9.9APR and has a 2k Bal. My Chase Freedom is 2k with 0% for 15 months and has a 1,100 Bal. All other cards are high APR other than Discover for the next 2 months at 3.9% and has a 0 Bal.

What's the best way to work this?

Personally, I would do it on what will save me the most in interest.  If you don't want to blow up your FICO in meantime, might want to avoid getting to 80% or more on any particular card.  You will see tremendous hit from that.  Also, you will see noticable hit on FICO by having any balances, no matter how small, from 2-5, but that isn't as big a deal.
