How do you lower your credit limit without lowering your overall credit score?
Tim asked:
I have only have one revolving credit card, and I have a very high credit score. Because of this overall score they subsequently increase my credit line, even though I don't ask for or use this revolving line of credit. Question? I have been told if you ask for a credit line decrease they lower your overall credit score? Why? What can you do to minimize a lowered credit score?

Your talking about your debt to credit ratio which makes up 30% of your overall score.
