Will closing a 16 year old credit card account with an excellent payment history and a 18500.00 credit limit in order to get a card with a much better interest rate affect your credit rating?

Closing a 16 year old seasoned credit card account with an excellent payment history will NEVER improve your credit. As a matter of fact, opening a new credit account will also temporarily reduce your score. If you need a lower rate, call your current credit card company and request it. It is a much better solution that can save you money on interest. The following link can show how to request a lower interest rate on your current credit card account.
