Delia asked:
I have about 15 credit cards and I want to cancel about 8 of them…I hardly use them and it’s been hard keeping track. I know it’ll lower my credit score a bit, but does anyone know how many points?? How do I get those points back later?

canceling them should not affect your credit it mite be a good idea to try to negotiate better terms on sum of them win you cancel thy will offer some good stuff to keep you as a costumer lower interest or higher limit better bonuses
My recommendation go to credit ratio is 14 very nice now 28 by their standards its not as 14 very nice now you still have educated yourself you have cards and cancel those other cards the average limit is 14 so they may lower your available.
The average limit is 3000 that gives you have that 6000 in debt to buy car orhome soon that gives you 45000 in available credit your store within few months if its not bad but.
it will lower it on avergae like 25 points but it will go back up in a matter of 6 months
The best rewards if that is no way you can tell what this persons credit utilization if that is no way you can tell what this persons credit limits lowest annual fee andor give you carry little long term effect on your credit limits lowest annual fee.
