I don't think he meant it as a negative or a criticism. I started on these forums with over 30 inquiries each on EQ and EX and 7 or so on TU. No biggie. It's not a bad thing. Part of the learning process.

I agree with the others that you should wait until december. That will give your INQ's some time to age further.

I'm just going to echo the advice that you've already been given. Time helps, it really does. I had 2 COs and a CA on my reports when I apped for two prime cards last October; one of them was an offer that I received in the mail. I was denied on both of them. The reason given was the CO/CAs. I sat back and waited 10 months for them to drop off, apped again last weekend, and voila! Approved, with nice limits. So if you have baddies that are close to dropping off, I would strongly urge you to just sit back and wait. Right now, time coupled with responsible current behavior are your best friends.

I agree that waiting is your best option. Wait til the baddies are gone, that's your best option

how old are the cap1 cards, once those 20 INQ's fall off, pay down your capone cards off with perhaps one reporting less than 9% and the rest at zero, App for an AMEX Zync card should be good if the capone cards are 6months or older. If you can get closer to 700 with the INQ's dropping off and possible improved UTL, you can try  Chase Freedom and Discover More/IT
