    Will cash-advances play the similar role in building a good credit history like purchases or it's considered inferior vis-a-vis Purchases?

    would greatly appreciate a reply to this

    I have seldom used a regular card for purchases and I have built my credit to over $150,000. The secret to good credit is paying back. Make large payments and make them on time. You will get lower rate offers and higher limits.

    There is no indication made on your credit file at the CRA about the composition of your current balance. They just list one number: the total amount you owe.

    The specific creditor may keep track of this information and use it to make such decisions as adjusting your interest rate or giving you a credit line increase or waiving an annual fee.

    Yes, I have been rejected because of too many cards. Anytime you get turned down, you should investigate the reason, correct it and wait a few months. I usually wait 6 months. I will always have too many cards, unless they start charging me a yearly fee just for keeping the account. As long as the account is low maintenance, it is worth keeping. One as an emergency source of funds and two as a possible money making opportunity.

    Profit from the experience.
