Any suggestions on a CC with this type of score? My current utilization is about 25% but i wanted to get more CL so that would go down. Any help would be great.</DIV> Sat, 25 Aug 2007 15:01:30 GMT https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Cards/Trying-to-Raise-my-utilization/m-p/55350#M4641 Anonymous 2007-08-25T15:01:30Z Re: Trying to Raise my utilization % https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Cards/Trying-to-Raise-my-utilization/m-p/55368#M4656 <DIV></DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV><BR /></DIV><BLOCKQUOTE><DIV><HR />kasowell wrote:<BR /><DIV>I have a 648 score and want to apply for a new cc but don't want to risk an inquiry if it's going to be no.
