Target reporting 7 Open Accounts!!

Should I worry since they are all good and I do have (4) Accounts.  Most are listed 2009 so not the oldest but not youngest either so thinking probably leave alone unless having all these $200 limits showing hurts me... and I don't mean Fico Score wise because I'm probably not loosing AA for 2009 really and I have not heard any lender so far concerned or even question why I have so many Target Cards, don't think it's like a FP in credit world!

The more accounts you have the smaller the future effect of a new account on your AAoA.    IMO better to let it be.

What are the limits on you 4 target cards?  So I guess its possible to get more than one target card?  I wanna apply to get rid of the 200 CL just scared they will give me another 200 CL.

Re: Target reporting 7 Open Accounts!!

I will list year open and limit and CLI:

 

1999 - $200 increased to $300 at 6 months and has never moved

2008 - $200

2008 - $200 increased to $1000 back in maybe 2010 when a lot of us were seeing increases around holiday I think and then about 3 months ago went to $1500 which I was shocked.

2009 - $200
