No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
If you have to ask this question then you already know you put yourself at risk.
Just lay low, don’t do anything to bring attention to yourself and hope for the best. Worry about it doesn’t do any good since what’s done is done.
I don't know the odds, but continued apps probably won't help. Consider finding some unrelated hobby for a bit if you truly feel addicted to credit.
FWIW, after I got CSR I stretched my next three apps out over the course of a year.
LMAO!
it's a common problem around here getting caught up in all the success you see around you. you're relegated to CLI's only for the next 12 months! Dig around here a bit more and tackle questions from others is a good distraction from that flashing neon apply button.
Everyone likes to peek at your reports. Some more than others.

I know the feeling. I realize my message could have sounded condescending and it wasn’t meant that way. I am bracing myself for all of my new accounts to hit and drop my scores myself. I’ve already had Experian go down from 713 to 694 just from inquiries, one new account, and my AoOA going from >10 years to <10 years the other day. I’m not as worried about it though because the accounts I added were Synchrony, Capital One, and AMEX.
Now I have to force myself to sit in the garden and stop applying too.
