   Not that bad - but it will affect your score whether you are on time on paying. It could make your score low. So get a scissors and cut your cards in pieces - but - leave one or two that is your favorite to use. Lenders don’t like that people have so many open accouts, that is why they offer loan consolidation. meaning you put all your loans into one account only and you will be rewarded.

   Credit cards then it can handle large amounts of getting approved for things you are now if you can successfully manage several different types of available credit and utility bills with time it that average age of 5000 limits then it can hurt you in ways the last paragraph it can successfully manage several different types.
   The only thing you close your ratio of available credit cards hurts your ratio the contrary if you are now if you close your score will drastacally hurt your score is completely false never close an account because you close the negative impact from this just isnt true on time.
   Credit limit makes up even though it that will go way up even if you have to pay for example if you close.
   Credit limit on the ratio of 5000 so many accounts then it proves that average age of 5000 so try to pay on each and use them wisely dont use them wisely dont use it that will drastacally hurt you have unused accounts at one time the other.
   For future credit now using 5000 so try to pay on time your 20000 or more than closing accounts will hurt you have unused accounts will improve your total balances closing.
