What is your credit line? how many CC do u have? Why did you apply your cards?

[Anonymous]

As of Jan 9 2012, my goal is only 8 credit cards. I dont want to get over 10 credit cards because I think it is not a good idea to have over 10 credit cards. How about you guys?

Amex blue-------------------------$25.400 (appled because It gave me a lot of points, my Amex major card now)

Amex delta-------------------------$9,000  (applied for fun, rarely use it)

BoA Plantinum Plus-------------$4,000 (because this card provides overdraft with my bank of america)

Chase Freedom Visa----------- $22,500  (I really love this card, my Visa major card now)

Citi Dividend Master Card-----$7,800    ( got bonus, my Master major card now)

Discocver More------------------$8,000   (great with their program bonus mall, my Discover major card now)

Walmart Discover---------------$700     (just to see my FICO score, dont want to use this card)

Welfargo Visa---------------------$1,500  (because this card provides overdraft with my bank Wellfargo)

So far, I have Visa, Master, Amex, Discover in my wallet. I can go anywhere with my wallet. I am very happy about these cards. These cards are very excellent, and they are my 4 major card. I have received a lot of bonus, cash back from these cards. I really dont know what cards should I get from now on? I think I will increase these credit lines . What card will you suggest for me to apply after these cards? How about you?

What did you have to do to get an AmEx limit over $25k? Seems like that's the limit without getting the spanish inquisition.

To answer your question:

AmEx BCP $19.3k

USAA World MC $14k

Discover More $4k

BofA Visa Sig $5k

Target $2.5k

Amex Blue Cash Every Day ------------------2,500

Alliant CC Visa (No rewards version)-----2,000

Shell Gas Card----------------------------------- 400

[mAndrew1980]

Barclay's Apple:   $2000

Cap1 Platinum:    $500

Cap1 Cash Back: $500

Total Limit:            $3000

By Spring my Cap1 Cash Back should go up to $750 and I'm hoping Barclay's will up me to $2500. That would put me at $3,750 in total credit.

$7600 total, 4 credit cards + 1 charge card: 

- Orchard Bank................................. $600 (closing this year)

- Capital One Platinum....................$2000 

- Banana Republic Visa................. $3000

- Chase Freedom..............................$2000

- Amex Zync.......................................NPSL

I regret opening the Capital One card. My oldest card (closed now) is from 2002, so adding a bunch of cards really hurt my AAoA.
