Aaoa fico scoring

[Anonymous]

Okay is my aaoa is 5.6 yrs and oldest is 14.7 years ( no longer open). Okay if I close a capital1 600cl with 3 years will it really affect my aaoa? My ob will become c1 I don't want to have 3 c1. Especially with moving into more prime cards.. And I'm still at a lost as my exp score 50 pts lower for no explainable reason is that it weigh late payments worse than the other two or is boa used a cc enhanced score. Still confusing because equifax actually has an old judgement. So confusing.

"My ob will become c1"....what do you mean by that? 

Even if you close the 1 Cap 1 acct, it will remain on your report & the acct will still be factored into your aaoa for at least 10 years.  The one thing that will no longer be factored in, is the $600 will no longer be factored into your overall available credit.  That # will drop by $600 when you close the card.

My orchard bank will become c1 which means ill have 3 capital one accounts which is too many. So aaoa is all accounts or just the open ones. Due to adding oh about 4 new accounts my aaoa is dropping significantly. But not too worried in another year it should be up again. Are installment auto loans in aaoa accounts?

AAoA (as seen by FICO) includes ALL OC accounts, whether opened or closed, good or bad, charged-off, not charged-off, paid, unpaid, duplicate, not duplicate, etc. Basically all accounts listed on your Accounts page are included in AAoA. AAoA excludes CAs and PRs.
