Closed my chase united explorer card

[Jnbmom]

I have had this card for well over 2 years. Starting limit 6.7K and that is where it has stayed. I initially got as as DD was supposed to study abroad and used it heavily for the miles and then COVID hit . I really don't travel much especially these days so I asked if I was eligible for an increase , well yes we can check with 2 pulls of course . I decided instead to just close it .

Might have been better to product change to the no fee United gateway card to preserve the credit line if it mattered. I do keep some airline card to keep miles from expiring but no worries with United miles

Thanks. In all honestly every year I trim some cards that I don't utilize and they have been on my list for awhile .

Oh no, isn't it against Forum TOS to close a CHASE card?

What do you mean?  

Maybe it's daylight savings time throwing people off, but I think you got them confused with NFCU. 

Had it been them, this thread would be 5 pages of "You just ruined the best thing in your life, ever. Tragedy" 

On a more serious note  what is it that triggers you about chase? I'm asking because it comes up often, but I've never seen you type a reason for it. That much resentment towards a corporate entity must have a reason.

Was it denial? Or continuously being over 5/24, hence inability to get approved?

@Remedios  Oh yes NFCU I would be burned at the stake or pebbled with rocks 😂

I don't really dislike chase I just don't have any cards other than the United and well 5/24 I am so over that it's not funny . Maybe years down the road I will get one of their cards but for now with everything I have going on ,  I am just trying to simplify a bit and really want to close some cards . That card really didn't work for me , I have a few others that will be next , most certainly my Walmart card with Cap one which I can admit I don't particularly care for them 😂
