You are graded for your total CL and how much of that are being use. If the cards that you have, has a low limit and it's your oldest cards without AF than it's helping you with your AAoA.

To clarify this a bit scoring doesn't look at or care what your CL's are. It only looks at how you manage the CL's you have.

Close the FP and BBRZ. Keep the CapOne open for now, but as soon as some of your other lines grow, you can say sayonara to anything with an AF.

Let me qualify what I said by saying "anything with an AF that doesn't benefit you"!
Good luck!
I would close all of them eventually, except for the oldest tradeline.
However, I'd close them over a period of months. For instance, one every 3 months, while you add more of the cards you plan on keeping. I've always felt it was good to show creditors that I'm always willing to "close" a card for whatever reason.
I've found that in business--especially commerce--a reputation for walking away is essential for achieving good results.
well i am closing fp no matterwhat its my oldest card. but your saying close all my cards out? i plan on closing HD this year as well now no need for it too high APR.... as well as fp and bbrzmc and then cap1's when i get another prime card.
