five (5)I pay off the balance of each and every card in full every month. Will this reduce my credit score?

by limit, u mean there isn't a maximum u can put on the card?0 -
five (5)The max I can put on all of my four credit cards is 17k. AMEX is a charge card and therefore have no pre-set limit but full balance must be paid off every month.0

one (1)One with a requested £500 limit. Only carried for just in case moments.
It's a pity those individuals with large unmanageable CC debts didn't do the same?0 -
four (4)Abbey 5% cashback for supermarket shopping
ASDA 2p per litre discount for petrol
Capital One 1% cashback for anywhere & anything else
Halifax One 0% card for car insurance
First 3 paid in full by DD each month.
Halifax minimum £5 paid by DD each month, final payment "ring fenced" in high interest saving account.The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life.

one (1)Only 1 now - had about 5 at one point sort of rotating in use paying off the balances each month, then figured - what the hell am I doing here?! - closed them all with the exception of Egg Money which does me fine.0
