Strategy for Playing Musical Cards

[jake619]

It seems anecdotal evidence has determined PIFfing all but one card is the best strategy.  If you have multiple cards would it be beneficial to rotate the non-PIF card?  With three cards each would report a balance 4 times per year yet would have purchases that the creditor internally would see.

I don't know how beneficial it is but I rotate which card I leave something on every month. If for no other reason than to show use on the all cards.

I do not watch or track how many cards have balances reporting. However, I do use my sock drawered cards every three or four months. When doing so, I allow one of my  prime cards to have a break. I usually have three or four report monthly incluidng the  joint cards with my wife.  My wife and I have mostly separate credit files except our auto loans and two credit cards. Her Fico scores are above 800 with no mortage and mine in the siggy below.
