No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
On average (unless there is an exact number), when a credit card company (capital one and barclays in my case) does the HP, regardless of the approval, about how many points does your score really get dinged?? thanks in advance!

Usually 3-5 points. It's really very little, and INQs are a small percentage of your FICO scores, only 10%.
[EDIT] Also, INQs only stay on your report for 2 years.
