If it happens more several times in a couple of years, it will affect your FICO score.While they are not big influences, a new card counts as applying for new credit, which will ding you about 4 points for about a year. Then again as your average age of your credit cards drops. FICO does not care if it was a new card replacing an old one. FICO works for the banks, not you. I am not looking for loans, or need an apartment, but FICO scores are looked at by your insurance companies and possibly potential employers. Again, I'd rather lose $5 on a new farecard to keep my banking and credit cards out of the picture. |
