Re: Strategy on Increasing limit on preferred cards and close others, minimize impact on utilization

Ok. What are the limits on each of your cards, amounts owed on each, and APR? How much are you trying to put on a BT?
High Bal Jan 2009 $116k on $146k limits 80% Util.
Oct 2014 $46k on $127k 36% util EQ 722 TU 727 EX 727
April 2018 $18k on $344k 5% util EQ 806 TU 810 EX 812
Jan 2019 $7.6k on $360k EQ 832 TU 839 EX 831
March 2021 $33k on $312k EQ 796 TU 798 EX 801
May 2021 Paid all Installments and Mortgages, one new Mortgage EQ 761 TY 774 EX 777

Re: Strategy on Increasing limit on preferred cards and close others, minimize impact on utilization

Sorry I should have said just need long intro APR not necessarily BT. I will have zero consumer CC balance remaining as of May. But 7k left on AMX biz which does NOT report to consumer FICO (that's getting paid off next year w/ bonus)

Chase 4.5k
Citi DC 1.5k
Barclays 3k
Cap One Quick silver 3.8k
Cap One Biz 2k
Best Buy Citi 1k
Amazon 2k
BOA 2k

APRs are generally 20% if I recall correctly and not desirable
