looking for some advice as an existing cardholder ...
right now i have the aa visa sig personal and aa visa biz both opened at the start of 2010. previously with chase i've found out too late that they would be more willing to transfer existing credit lines to get a new account set up, rather than start from zero - meaning i should have kept an existing card (ie, a UA visa) open rather than cancel it right before applying for another card (ie, a CO visa).
is citi similar to chase in that regard ? i guess i could really just boil the question down to should i cancel my two cards now and apply for these new 75k or 100k offers sometime before october, or keep them open while applying?
