Hello All,
Yesterday I called Orchard's back door # and asked them to consolidate both my Platinum cards. Both with $300 limits. I chose to keep the card that I had open the longest (6 months longer than the other Orchard card) She rep ended up increasing the limit by $200 on the card I was closing and said the combined cards would now be $800 instead of $600. My question is this, will the closed account affect my scores even though both cards together will have a higher CL than them being separate?
