How fast do inquiries hit?

Do inquiries hit instantly?  Or, if you did a spree all on one day would each see the ones before that same day, or do inquiries take hours or a day to show?

Re: How fast do inquiries hit?

Before you see the approval screen Lol

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

In the time it took me to type this thousands of inquiries needlessly died at the hands of a credit card applicants.

 

Yeah, it's that fast. I would have used hundreds but I am a slow typer.

It's actually when you are filling out an app LOL.  IF you change your mind and hit escape, it's only a SP.

Re: How fast do inquiries hit?

Pretty much instantaneous.  Your better off trying to app for cards that pull different CRA's as then they won't see them.
