I'd put it on the one that is completely maxed out (1999/2000). The other one is at 89% util, so it is not completely maxed out (I believe 90% is maxed).

I think it may be 90% but I've also heard 80%. Tough call...

Which ever one has the highest interest rate, but if they are the same I would just split it in the middle.

I would put $500 toward the first card and $200 on the 2nd card imo.
