I am just curious how many inqs did you have within two year when you applied I am thinking of applying for that same card but i have 6 inq and none are going to be falling off before i want to apply. They will reach one year anniversaries , but will still be on credit report.

Re: Sallie Mae

It can't hurt since you've already taken the HP. It would be best if you could explain them. How many are there?

hmmm i have 6 all within last year. I am pretty wary now. I would be very disappointed if i was denied for too many recent credit cards. I don't really know what the defintion of too many recently opened accounts means .

Re: Sallie Mae

Any way to explain them to the person that picks up the phone? Auto loan, CLIs, or something?

Re: Sallie Mae

You will need a very convincing argument to get the next analyst to overturn the denial. They track those calls and typically (not always) stand by the first decision.

And they will hard pull another credit report.

Are we talking on TU only or on all 3 CRAs? I am curious as I am getting ready to apply early June as well for SM.

how long have you had your Arrival? Also, 4 INQs in 6 months may be a little too many for them (if they are all on TU), if you have a high utilization, many recently opened accounts, short AAoA/thin file then those INQs may have been a played more in their decision. You can always give it one more shot but like it was said, they may HP you again.
