I signed up for an American Express preferred Blue card and got approved for a limit of $25,000. I have a 830 credit score. I realized that the places I shop don’t accept that card and you have to pay for it yearly so I canceled it.

Then I decided I was going to get a Costco Visa. Once I signed up the credit limit was only $5,000. So I canceled that one. So I stupidly signed up for a Wells Fargo Visa and that was $4,000.

Don’t leave yet and please don’t make fun of me but I’m not done being stupid. I decided I wanted a different American Express card and when I signed up for it the credit limit was $2,000 so I canceled that one.

Again I know I’m fucking stupid but how bad did I just fuck up my credit?

    Because they’re gonna need OP’s social security number and credit card info in order to look into what can be done to help.

        Remember OP, when you get scammed, call them back and ask nicely so they can refund you onto a different card number since that first one is toast.
