They closed down the Freedom and CSR that I actually left open after the first year. My FICO is also over 800. The bureau gave them too many credit cards (I have 10 open with the newest the CSR that was 1.5 years old) and sudden increase in revolving balance (I owed $2k across all accounts which is about average for my monthly spending). I have 30 days to do something with my UR points.
this is pretty scary. Especially if you weren’t doing any MS.
