If I didn't cancel cards with NAF at any given time I would have 20 plus cards open.

If you churn the Hilton Visa heavily (15 for me so far) you have to close cards.

I have the NAF Whydham and NAF Arrival open now that I will also close as Barclay can be tough with credit.

I have 2 long term cards, Hilton Amex and one Hilton Visa
