Maybe a lot, maybe none. Your credit scores are calculated based on ALL the information in your credit file at the time they are requested, not just these four accounts.

Were all accounts paid as agreed? What were the dates the accounts were opened? What available credit did you have prior to closing 3 and how much available credit do you have now? Were the accounts delinquent? Do you have any other existing open accounts? What are the dates those were open?

As you can see, the pieces of information fit together in a very complex way. One piece of data affects several others and can alter the whole equation. Once again, that is what a credit score is, a computation based on the accounts you have open.

How do you raise your credit score without credit cards?

You have to have active accounts in order to have a credit score. Your credit score can reflect your payments history on installment loans. Pay whatever accounts you have in a timely manner. Control and limit inquiries. Stay away from finance companies. Your score will not be as high as someone who has revolving credit accounts and manages them well. But you will have a score that reflects how you manage the credit you do have. If you have a mortgage, car payment, school loans, and sometimes even cell phone or utility bills that you pay on time, that will raise your credit score.
