Baller and others, hate to ask in CAs thread but want to know if freezing EX what will that do to my chance at CLI with Amex in Feb and any new cards I want to grab from Chase and AMEX in 2015.  What will they do?   Should I avoid freezing for now?  My EQ/TU are clean.

 

 


Shouldn't do anything for your CLI, As it's a SP pull from current creditor.

 

New card from Chase, you'll need to apply and have them ask you for EX pin IF they pull EX for that app.

Amex can Cli from their last sp. For new apps you can give Amex and Chase a pin to pull EX. I don't mind doing that. It's the surprise addtl pulls from lenders that are known to pull other bureaus that ticks me off. Freezing EX minimizes that.

To whomever said it earlier (no quoting on phone), freezing a credit report is definitely NOT illegal. Please don't share misinformation like that.

Sure you are OPT'ed in?  If I can get pre-quals still from their site with a 704 TU score, you surely can.  They have the slate showing for me currently with the best  APR%, but no interest in that dumb card

+1 not illegal at all.. Although speaking about it on MyFico to get a "better" bureau pulled is frowned upon.. Not illegal by any means.
