Barclay closed my account...

So about 2 months ago i received a letter from barclay telling me they have closed my account.
Reason on the letter were too much available credit with other lenders.
I didnt even bothered calling them. Last time i used that card was in november 2011. My total CL from when i opened that card was 9k, at the time they closed the account my total cl was 100k+ but 2% utl spread on 2 cards.

Perhaps they will soon close mine. I use it every month, but the limit is only 4600, with is almost the lowest I have and the credit I have has gone up significantly since I was approved for their card.
