I agree!

Maybe mortgage lenders like to see this. However, I have to believe that ccc's not only determine your creditworthiness but also score each applicant to determine how much money can be made by approving them.. i.e. finance charges. CCCs seeing responsible usage of cc's with small balances is music to their ears. ching, ching! Accept for Amex in certain situations, CCCs hate PIF members.

I also recommend to everyone at the time they are applying to show as many $0 balances as possible. You can still keep up your UTL on just 1 card to maintain activity. This has nothing to do with scoring, but lenders might prefer seeing less current responsibilities when you are taking on their new debt. This has been working "very" well for me.
