confused about tradelines and multiple accounts.......

hi all,

 

i'm a rebuilder post bk 6/12,

 

Little confused bout difference between lines and accounts, for example......

 

i have these....

 

cap1 secured

cap1 platinum

sony visa reward by cap1

target redca

 

So with these, do i have 4 tradelines reporting OR 2(cap1 and target)

 

If some1 can clear this for me, much appreciated, also if in fact its only count as 2 reporting, should i consider adding another tl to improve my credit or is this enough?

 

I have gotton these cards all in this year( i dono if this makes any difference)

 

thank u

Re: confused about tradelines and multiple accounts.......

Each are treated and scored separately. So if you have 4 TLs reporting, you have 4 TLs being scored and viewed by lenders. Doesn't matter who issues them.

 

I wouldn't add any new credit and let what you have age if a higher score is the goal.
