I like to App. I've got an App'ing problem...

Just put the FREEZE on the big three. I have WAY WAY WAY too many inquiries, and I figure this will help me NOT apply.

 

46 on Equifax (about a 1/4 are from NFCU)

 

22 on TU (I would have thought it was way more...)

 

40+ on EX (I haven't checked lateley).

Re: I like to App. I've got an App'ing problem...

I put a picture of Chase Sapphire Preferred on my lock screen to curb myself.  I feel you bro.

 

my friends and family are a 3 total Credit Card kinda group that app once every 5 years.  They look at me with 6 majors, 3 store cards  in disgust. Really. Like I told them I haven't showered in a week and am eating my own scabs.

 

Im at EQ 12. EX 14. TU 8.  Not as many, I know, but again, my sociological group. 

 

 

C'mon partner, misery loves company, let's make a bet to NOT APP for any credit cards for 2 years from this month. Then...go for it. I'm down.

Hmmmm... 2 years? TWO YEARS?

I need to think about that.

What would the loser have to cough up?

 Posting every time they app for a CC EVEN IF DENIED. 

 

Also add to their tag line in hot pink "I LOVE CREDIT ONE"

 

 

If we could NOT app for 2 years, 90% of those INQ will be gone!

Okay, I'm in!

But in December of 2017 I'm applying for at least the Citi Prestige, the CSP, the DoubleCash, the Freedom, the Venture, and the NFCU Flagship!
