Your scores are going to drop big time. You're not supposed to close accounts. I have worked as a mortgage broker and that is the number one "No-No". I can understand not wanting to monitor fees but your score might tank. You just eliminated good credit history from your profile. Part of your score is weighted on the amount of all your balances to the total number of open accounts. This portion of your score could've been very high. You have now consolidated your total debt to only 5 cards. Give it a few months and you will see your score tank a little or a lot.
