Closing open accounts?

Re: Closing open accounts?

Thanks for all your help. Part of your last reply prompts me to ask this: Do open revolving accounts with zero balance count towards utilization? Is utilization based on your accounts totaled including open accounts with zero balances or separately, by account? Also, if I have open accounts with zero balances, would it do me good to charge $5 or $10 bucks each month on them. (pay them off each month, but still use them minimally)

Credit accounts that report the limit adds in with your overall available credit. So if your balance is $0, your util should go down.
