<p>“我仍然有足夠的額度滿足我的需求。”（照片中的人物為模特。）</p>
<p>親愛的昆廷，</p>
<p>由於我不再像以前那樣頻繁使用萬豪卡，追逐信用卡的使用頻率下降，摩根大通降低了我的信用額度，因為我不再像以前那樣旅行。我直到事情發生後才發現。我仍然有足夠的額度滿足我的需求，我明白如果對我的信用有任何影響，那應該是小而暫時的。</p>
<p>但我在想，這是否會引發連鎖反應，導致其他銀行也對我使用較少的信用卡採取同樣的措施。這是我第一次信用額度被降低。</p>

<p>您的信用評分可能會在一兩個月內略微下降。</p>
<p>親愛的卡用户，</p>
<p>不要把這件事放在心上。</p>
<p>您使用信用卡的頻率降低並不一定是壞事。是的，每個行動往往都會帶來某種後果，正如您所發現的那樣。並不是所有銀行都會提前告知客户他們的信用額度被削減，除非這會導致透支費用或與信用卡相關的其他費用。</p>
<p>這提醒我們，信用並不是免費的。它對雙方都有風險，信用卡公司使用算法來管理這些風險。如果您不再像過去那樣頻繁使用某張卡，這可能表明您不需要那麼高的信用額度，或者就像您的萬豪卡一樣，您不再那麼頻繁地旅行，無論是出差還是休閒。</p>
<p>信用額度對雙方都有風險。</p>
<p>您的信用評分可能會在一兩個月內略微下降。但除非您打算申請抵押貸款或汽車貸款，否則這對您的生活不會有太大影響。雖然很難不覺得降低的信用額度或暫時的評分下降是對您的反映，但實際上並不是。這只是您消費習慣的反映。</p>
<p>摩根大通不對個案發表評論，但在您這種情況下，銀行的標準程序是在信用額度減少之前和之後通知客户（所以也許您錯過了電子郵件/信件）。在第一次通知中，您通常會被給予聯繫的選項，如果您希望考慮保留您的信用額度。</p>
<p>連鎖反應不太可能發生</p>
<p>關於潛在的連鎖反應：這不太可能在其他銀行引發警報。這並不是 “傳染性” 的。其他髮卡機構只能訪問您的總可用信用、信用卡餘額和整體債務與額度比率，這些信息會傳遞給信用局。沒有理由讓其他貸款人採取行動。</p>
<p>您也處於黑/紅債務線的正確一側：信用卡債務最近超過了 1.2 萬億美元，平均個人持卡人的債務約為 6000 美元，國家平均利用率略低於 30%。您的情況可能比由於使用減少而降低信用額度要糟糕得多。</p>
<p>有些人喜歡將盡可能多的開支放在信用卡上，以最大化獎勵，同時每月償還債務。其他人則認為這種策略風險較大，以防失業或其他意外事件。這位女士最近寫信給《理財顧問》，説她有 25 張信用卡，想開始取消其中的一些。</p>
<p>不利行動通知</p>
<p>理想情況下，您希望將信用卡使用率與信用額度的比率保持在 25% 到 30% 之間。信用局 - 艾克法克斯 EFX、Transunion TRU 和 Experian EXPN - 以不同的方式計算他們的評分。FICO 評分計算支付歷史（35%）、欠款金額（30%）、信用歷史長度（15%）、新信用（10%）和信用組合（10%）。</p>
<p>消費者金融保護局表示：“在髮卡機構通知您降低信用額度後，45 天內，髮卡機構不能因超過新的較低信用額度而向您收取超限費用或罰款。如果髮卡機構沒有通知您降低信用額度，則不能向您收取超限費用。”</p>
<p>沒有理由讓其他貸款人採取行動。</p>
<p>“在大多數情況下，髮卡機構必須在對您的賬户進行某些不利更改時，例如降低信用額度或終止您的賬户時，向您發出 ‘不利行動通知’，” 消費者金融保護局補充道。“該通知應提供採取行動的具體原因，或允許您請求具體原因的説明。”</p>
<p>如果您希望避免未來因 inactivity 而導致的信用額度削減，您可以在不常用的卡上設置小額定期費用，並每月償還。更好的是，如果您有太多卡，您可以取消一些，專注於您的核心卡。否則，接受降低的信用額度。您仍然是降低額度前的那個人。</p>
<p>不要錯過：‘這是我的錢’：我的 80 萬美元遺產正在支付 160 萬美元的房子。我難道不應該決定我和我丈夫住在哪裏嗎？</p>

摩根大通

<p>摩根大通因客户對萬豪卡的使用減少而降低了客户的信用額度，這可能會暫時對其信用評分產生輕微影響。客户擔心其他銀行可能會對使用較少的卡片降低額度產生連鎖反應。然而，專家表示這種情況不太可能發生，因為其他銀行通常不會對個別信用額度的變化做出反應。保持 25-30% 的信用利用率對信用評分是理想的，降低額度的影響很小，除非申請大額貸款</p>

</div><p>Dear Quentin,</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>親愛的昆廷，</p>
</div><p>Chase lowered the credit limit on my Marriott card because I'm not using that credit card as much as I did in the past, since I don't travel as much anymore. I didn't find out until after it was done. I still have an adequate limit for my needs, and I understand that if there is any impact on my credit, it should be small and temporary.</p>

</div><p>Don't take it personally.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>不要把這件事放在心上。</p>
</div><p>It's not necessarily a bad thing that you're using your credit card less often. And, yes, every action tends to have some kind of consequence, as you found out. Not all banks tell a customer in advance that their credit limit is being cut unless it leads to an overdraft fee or some other fees associated with the credit card.</p>

</div><p>It's a reminder that credit is not free. It comes with risks for both parties, and credit-card companies use algorithms to manage that risk. If you're not using a card as much as you did in the past, it may suggest either that you don't require as high a credit limit or, as in the case of your Marriott card, that you aren't traveling as frequently, whether for work or leisure.</p>

<div class="lb-trans"><p>信用額度對雙方都有風險。</p>
</div><p>Your credit score might get dinged slightly for a month or two. But unless you're planning to take out a mortgage or an automobile loan, it's not going to make much difference to your life. It may be hard not to feel like a lower credit limit or a temporary ding to your score is a reflection on you, but it's really not. It's only a reflection of your spending habits.</p>

</div><p>Chase does not comment on individual cases, but in cases such as yours it is the bank's standard procedure to alert the customer in advance and again after a line of credit is reduced (so perhaps you missed the email/letter). In the first notification, you would typically be given the option to reach out if you wish to consider keeping your line of credit.</p>

</div><p>As to the potential ripple effects: It's unlikely that this will trigger alerts at other banks. It's not &#34;contagious&#34; in that way.

</div><p>Ideally, you want to keep your ratio of credit-card usage to credit limit at between 25% and 30%.

摩根大通因我使用量減少而降低了我的信用卡額度。這會影響我的信用評分，並導致其他銀行也採取類似措施嗎？
