real funny there NF!! At least I had to freaking cold app all of mine..Comenity denies me the SCT as a punishment!  

 

OP..BTW...There is NO set rules on that you have to keep a card open for a year. The only effect it has on you is utilization at this point. You already took the hit, and its gonna stay on your reports for 10yrs..positive. I just close 5 cards this month alone.  By the end of the year,,,Ill will probaly have 15 closed. I send my letters certified return receipt and in the letter I state I want it to say.."Closed at consumers request"...so it looks like to another lender that I closed them, not the creditor..always get it in writingSmiley Wink


More a blessing than a punishment. I wish they'd start triple pulling for their store cards.


LOL!!!  Actually a few of mine I was dbl pulled!!  I could go back and look and tell which ones they wereSmiley Wink


Double triple pulls and an EX pull every CLI. Bingo.


Exactly, so you have $15k CL at JCrew? Buying $15k worth of khaki shorts, boat shoes and polos? Yeah, didnt think so. Smiley LOL


Heheheheheh. Love it.

 

 

In any case...

 

OP. Best course for you is to just keep the account open, put some occasional use on it so it actually reports and close it in a year.


NF...My Crew card is only at $8250, and is one i will not be closing, LOL..or Barneys now at $11k...The other, Im ok with losingSmiley Wink  hahahaha
