Any reasin to keep First Premier and/or Credit One?

[Anonymous]

I've done quite a bit of rebuilding over the past three years or so. I have a Cap One Quicksilver, Barclay Rewards, a Visa from our bank, Credit One, First Premier, and I was just approved for an Amex Everyday (10k limit). My husband has two Cap Ones (one is a quicksilver), Chase Amazon, USAA, and a Credit One.

There is no reason to keep the FP or Credit One cards, right? I was keeping them open to help our DTI while going for a mortgage, but we closed last month so that isn't necessary right now.

It would be better to close them right? All of them have a zero balance at the moment....

Looks like you do not need them anymore.  Close them both.  You have moved on already.  Good job!

Yes. Get rid of them.

Having a FP  and/or a Credit1 at the same time as having an American Express is sacrilegious!

LOL!

since the overwhelming response is to get rid of the cards, I will get rid of the cards. It does feel good to be beyond the need for these types of cards.
