Re: cards that dont mind inquiries and new accounts

There are banks that are not new account/ inquiry but it really depends on your individual overall credit profile. 

 

I would say Synch Bank on most store cards would let u in with a lot of new accounts/ inquiries with a 676 TU. 

 

Capitalone is pretty ok on it from my experience. 

You have some nice cards, how many inquiries/ new accounts are u talking about? I would definitely try and stay away from these banks if u are really feeling new account/ inquriy heavy. 

 

  • US Bank
  • Barclays
  • Citi
  • Chase
  • American Express
  • Bank of America

Re: cards that dont mind inquiries and new accounts

While some are less sensitive than others, the bottom line is you will never get the best limits and APRs with a ton of recent inquiries and accounts. So instead of worrying about who is sensitive to it, I suggest you merely wait and then you can apply for what you actually want.

What KDM said is right. U can skirt in with some lenders even though u have lots of the new accounts/inq's, but u will get bogged down with not the best terms, higher apr, maybe even lower limits.

And with some issuers, you are really truly STUCK with that limit and APR in most cases. Chase for example, generally not big on CLIs and never lowers APR so if you apply at the wrong time you'll regret it later.

Re: cards that dont mind inquiries and new accounts

I actually applied for a Alliant cu rewards card and got approved for 10k limit at 2.9 percent. Equifax is my best. The loan officer said I had a 708. The only reason they didn't match my 20,500 highest limit was because of too many inquiries, 20, and too many new accounts, 4 in the last year.
