My hope is that I can continue to build on my accounts as well too. Be careful though, HSBC will only allow you to have two accounts with them unless you receive an invitation. I was just pre-approved for an HSBC MC with rewards and when I applied, it was denied due to the fact that I have two accounts with Orchard. The CSR told me that even though I was pre-approved, that was diff. than an invitation for another CC with them and wouldn't recon. it or even change the hard to a soft inquiry. Lol, how was I to know that they only allow two when they keep sending me more offers or that there was a difference between pre-approved and invited??? But that was at HSBC and not OB, the CSRs at OB are much nicer.
Current:
TU (5/14/14): 796 (Inquiries; 8/23/13)
EQ (3/23/14): 791 (Inquiries: 8/23/13)
EX (9/24/13): 780 (Inquiries: 7/2/12; 11/20/12; 7/30/13; 8/23/13)
Goals: No new inquiries for 2014, 800 for all CRs by 12/31/14
