If it is deleted, will your average age of accounts go up or down?

Thanks for your response cheddar.

The average age would go down.

In that case I can't see any reason it's hurting you.

I don't see anything here to indicate this account is hurting you. If anything, it looks like a plain ole closed account in good standing with a $0 balance. Leave it be, it's helping your scores by adding length to your credit history and maybe increasing the years for your average-age of accounts.

LOL.  I'm leaving work in four minutes and I'm bored, so I've been in a bit of a posting frenzy. Smiley Tongue
