I had the same thought so I made the decision to get rid of some that were costing me money which lowered my overall credit available. Probably cost me a few points in the short term, but after they all finish reporting as closed, at least I won't look overextended. And the history will stay there since I have never been late on any of them and closed them on good terms.

I would keep it. Oh well stops helping a whole lot after two years anyway so by the next anniversary, to the shredder it goes, if things dont change.
