      <description>&lt;P&gt;Could you condense your post please. Looks like you have some high balances (%'s), 2 charge offs with balances, 23 lates, and so on. I'd worry about paying down those high % accounts and paying off the charge offs and closed accounts. As far as getting more credit. JMHO it's not looking to good for that to happen at this moment. I'd worry about the present. Your future should be getting back on track with what you have now thats hurting you.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Enter the experts in 5,4,3,2,1............................Good Luck!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I agree with thee others, applying for anything right now would not yield good results.&amp;nbsp; I would pay off the 200 Capital since that is the easiest to be paid in full. The AU has very high utilization not sure if I would remain on that? Try to get navy down to at least under 30%. And tackle those charge offs,&amp;nbsp; maybe try for PFD and GW the lates.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Good luck&lt;/P&gt;</description>
