What happens to credit score if you close a store credit card?

How many credit cards should you have to rebuild credit?

I’m trying to rebuild my credit after identity theft, some of the problems were my years of principle and not loans that have been reported. (I mainly use my debit card and pay cash for everything). I make good money now and I am trying to build up to buy a home within the next few years. My good accounts (rental, club, cable, cellular, etc.) are not reported my good credit. How many cards should I take that will help my credit score increases, not hinder my credit. Thanks!

What credit card to get at 18 and not a college student?

I always thought that they love to give you 18 credit cards, I tried to Capitol One, Chase, a QT credit card, and a Best Buy one. All deny that there is no credit history. I can not take the credit history if they do not let me credit. I work 2 jobs and just want one just in case and to actually build my credit. It is going on and why I keep getting rejected?
