No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Inquiries only affect your FICO for the first year. After that they may show on your report, but they don't factor into your score. You can't remove an inquiry for something you applied for denied or not.

I read if you were denied credit, the inquiry can be removed.
Always consider your sources, validate and corroborate. A denial is not a basis for disputing an inquiry. The inquiry is valid whether or not you are approved.
Inquiries typically have a small impact. If you're seeing bigger impact from an inquiry then your problem lies elsewhere on your reports and not with your inquiries. Work on addressing those issues. Do not rely on disputing inquiries to improve your credit profile. Inquiries lose their scoring impact at 1 year anyway as stated above.

The CRA sent me an updated copy of my CR and they added two years to an old inquiry. Making it four years.
Can you provide a screenshot of the entry for that inquiry?
