No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Either be okay with the small temporary ding on the score, pay before the statement hits, or get higher limits.

With an airline card (Chase) this prohibits me from earning miles, unless I change my payment date so I can pay the card off well before I need to so that when it reports my balance it is very low.It makes it very hard.
Which state do you live in and do you know which CRA they pulled?

Thanks! I am thinking of compiling a list of CCC/CRA pulls from posts at this forum and later sticky it.
