Prequal sites....how often ?

Is it detrimental to try them often ?

Can they be tried everyday or should it be spaced out to lime a monthly thing ?

Re: Prequal sites....how often ?

Assuming they’re SP, you could theoretically do them every day if you wanted. However, I have heard that banks will possibly get wary of the constant “potential” credit-seeking. That could be total nonsense, though lol.

Once a month would be your best bet

Feasible option.  Plus, assuming no major changes or fluctuations occur with your overall profile OP, the point would be moot to check obsessively (or daily) as it would deem counterproductive.  But hey, if you're bored on a daily basis and like to see the same results, go for it Smiley Very Happy

IMO....I would rather have a 50% rather than a 0% chance on the approval. While I do not like Prequalifying cards ( privacy nerd here), I would say it does help people that are rebuilding.

No more than 5 times a day.
