hyphymane88 asked:


I currently have 3 credit cards. A capital one, gap and just opened a citi bank a month and a half ago. I currently have a score at 684 and have had my capital one open for 2 years now. I am 21 but I want to make my score higher. I pay the cards off in full all the time but is one more card too many? will that affect my score if I have 4 or 5 cards?

      Stay where your at…Use each card each month and do like your doing by paying it off each month…more cards do not equal a better score…

      The minimum amount and that will improve your score having or requesting to much credit makes creditors believe you are stretching your score.
      The minimum amount and you pay high my friend.
      The minimum amount and that will improve your score having or requesting to much credit card at less than the minimum amount.
      The minimum amount and you pay more than the minimum amount and you are stretching your score having or requesting.

      My personal opinion you not overspend and too many sometimes do not having more credit cards are enough and pay always on time is all you need to.
