Re: PENFED Credit Card

I applied today and got Instant Approval for $20,000 and I had a lot of inquiries. Well, to be honest I believe the FICO scoring model counts the number of inquiries within the last 12 months, of which mine was 7. Last 2 years though, the number is now 18 :-)...10 of them mortgage, and 4 auto finance related. FICO scores are EQ: 752 TU: 759 EX: 752
