Credit scores are calculated primarily on "Credit". After
closing a card............do you have "credit"? No. You HAD
credit......now you don't. It certainly won't help your scores.

Does cancelling a credit card affect your credit score?
Yes, canceling a credit card always reduces your credit score.
It never improves your credit score if you cancel a credit card
account. If you have had the card for more than 2 years, or if you
have a substantial amount of available credit at the time that you
close the account, then the reduction in your credit score is even
greater. However, if it makes sense to you to close the card, and
you do not plan large purchases in the near future, your credit
will recover without your feeling the difference.
