Closing card

Hi all,

I have recently got a barclay card with a decent arp rate and 0% for 14 months my other card is my main bank which is a fair Apr as well at 19%.

I always clear my balance in full however I have an aqua card which is 50% apr! yes you read it right!

My question is I have only had the aqua card 8 months and it is of no use to me know, like I said I clear my balance in full however the card is of no use to if I ever had to carry a balance for two months etc so would cancelling the card have any adverse effects on my credit rating, as I've had it less then a year?

Any advice appreciated!
