What happens if I do not activate a new credit card?
I applied for a new credit card, and got approved. I changed my mind and don't want it. The card has arrived in the mail. If I fail to call the number on the card, does that mean the card will never activate and I won't need to worry about it anymore, OR do I need to call and close the credit card even though I have not activated it yet? Thanks.

Not activating the card just means that you don't have a card you can use. If you want the account closed then you need to call them.

On a side note it's not always a good idea to close your extra accounts. your credit score is partially based off of the percentage of credit you use out of all of your available credit. so if you already have the credit lines open it's a good idea not to close it so that the credit you do use will be less of a percentage of what you have available. just cut up the card or freeze it in a cup of water in your freezer so you really can only get to it in emergencies.

then it stays inactive.

If you don't call it's not activated. Best thing to do is to cut it up into small pieces and throw it away.

If you don't use it you won't get bills!

Just check it's one that has no annual charge, in which case you will need to phone and cancel and you may even be asked to put the cancellation in writing.

If you dont want it dont activate it. If you activate it just deactivate it. If you dont want to call the company just dont ever use it or cut it up with scissors and throw the remains out. Good Luck

closing it will hurt your credit. cut it in half and throw it away.

I would call and cancel the credit card as you might get charged fees. Best to check it out with the bank.

Calling and activating the card justs lets u use the card. To cancel it you need to call the Co and close the account.
