I have multiple credit cards and would like to catch up and pay them off. Can I call the card companies to hold or freeze my other accounts as I pay off other cards?

In your situation, you are a prime candidate for a debt management program. This special arrangement with multiple creditors generally allows for a lower consolidated payment, lower interest rates and the waiver of certain late or over-the-limit fees. Additionally, your accounts may be eligible for re-aging, in which they would revert back to a "current" status.

Credit Freeze Request?
Get StartedThe most recent weapon in the war to protect your credit is the Credit Freeze, also called a Security Freeze. A Credit Freeze completely shuts down access to your credit history. You are given a PIN to access your credit history. If you want to provide access - for a new loan or job application that requires a credit check, for example - you can "thaw" your credit history for a specified period of time.The nature of the Credit Freeze means that it will make getting credit much more difficult - not only for any potential fraud, but for you as well. Fees can be involved both to establish the freeze and each time you need to "thaw" it. So, the Credit Freeze is not perfect for all consumers, but it promises to be the best method of preventing abuse of your good credit.Placing a Credit Freeze requires a written request to each credit bureau, and each has slightly different requirements. Our simple interview process will automatically generate all three letters for you.Note: The Credit Freeze is now available to all consumers in all states. In most states victims of Identity Theft can utilize this defense at no cost.

If you get a 0 percent apr credit card put a balance on it then transfer to another card and close the previous one how does it affect your credit?
Credit scores reflect the number of paid credit accounts you have. So, when you transfer from the first account to another, that first account becomes PAID. You don't need to close the account, since over time it will be beneficial to your score. Myanswer I heard the more credit cards you have reduces your credit rating as theres still a risk of using up your credit limit and risk of fraud. Also, a credit card in reality is a loan but reflected as a credit limit. Having a few (4-5)credit cards, or positive trades, on your credit report is good. If you are using less than half of the available credit for EACH card, it shows that you know how to manage money. You can also freeze your credit account to avoid constant checks by prospective lenders. Reply so basically having 4-5 credit cards on £0 balance with £3000 credit limits is good for your credit rating if those cards are frozen?

You can have as many RuneScape accounts as you like. However, it is against the rules to use multiple accounts in order to make money or cheat in the game. If you violate the rules of the game with one of your accounts, depending on the severity of the violation, either just the one account or all of your accounts will be banned.
