Lots of things affect your credit score in nonsensical ways. Closing
an account that you haven't used in years and don't really need should
RAISE your score - after all, you've already established a good track
record with that card and, with less open-to-buy, it's harder for you
to get into trouble, right? But no, closing that account will make
your score go DOWN.

Ridiculous!

 Thats why FICO and others klike them should be regulated to death,
not be allowed to play these moronic games, ans be hjeld CRIMINALY
liable for any screwups on their part. Also, it would help if
braindead robots in industry would stop buying into the FICO racket

Of course, it would also help if you paid your bills.
