Posted by on December 1, 2007, 5:37 pm Hello, Can anyone advise on what kind of credit hit I could expect to take if I close out a credit card that I opened less than a year ago? Is it many points or just a few? Will those points build up again sooner than later? My credit score is in the high 770's. I'm closing the account because they sent me the wrong one and when I called they wouldn't send me the right one, so I paid off the bal transfer I put on it and now I want to get rid of it and not do business with them anymore. Thanks in advance for your tips/advice/thoughts!
