Final Update: So it appears Cap1 isnt willing to work with me to remove the annual fee on my secured card and it will never unsecure being that it was opened pre 2016. There is a 2 year gap between it and my quicksilver and I am aware that it should remain on my report for 7-10 years post closure. I have $300 initial deposit sitting there and I've outgrown its use. At this point it makes sense to close it get my deposit back and pray it doesnt drop off of my report while my other accounts have time to age if not I'm looking at AAoA around 6-8 months with my 5 new accounts
as my next oldest card is only 1 year 6 months old and my secured is sitting at 3 years 5 months. Is this the best logical step for this account I've exhausted EO, back door numbers, and good old CSR. They just aren't willing to do anything with the card almost as if saying please close this account and get one of our new cards when eligible. Opinions? Thanks to everyone who gave suggestions on my options.
