    I ripped up all my credit cards, and closed them. All i have is a installment loan, being payed on time , all the time. I want my score to go up. Should i go out and get a new credit card?....or just wait....and keep paying the instalment loan on time like i have been?

    Can you reopen any of your closed accounts?

    Not having revolving credit will hurt your score. New accounts will also hurt your score for a while, as will the inquiries from the creditor pulling your credit.

    Length of history is a big part of your score, so reopening a closed account will serve you better, if the history is positive.
