It is not just home equity lines either. I have been excellent with my credit and payments etc. Paid off one of my main cards recently which I do often. Got a letter letting me know that they are now cancelling my account. Makes me nervous about paying off my other balance in full now.
The simple fact is, if you pay your bills on time and have a good credit score you are worth less to them than some dead beat whom is always late. They make a much lower intrest rate on someone like yourself and have to give out a much larger credit line to keep you happy.

Meanwhile they can give out $500 to $1k limit cards to 10 deadbeats and have the riskl spread out while making much more profit because of higher intrest rates and late fees.. ect..ect..
