Keep new accounts to a minimum before applying for credit with them.

You'll be fine.

Nothing special about my income.

That would be CC and the like.

I don't think the income thing matters with Langley.

They don't like to see large amounts of open tradelines.

@Wavester64 

Depends really on what type accounts you open.

FNBO denied me opening a checking account. But had no issues opening a money market account.

 

I've opened at least 3 or 4 accounts since. None of the others had issues with my Chex system report.

Infact, it's very rare to be denied a bank account IME.

 

I've opened 3 CU accounts in the last two weeks. None of them had an issue with my Chex. Opened 7 CU accounts since January 2020. Langley was one of those 7 this year.

 

So as you can see, the rules don't seem to apply to everyone. Raja has opened more than me I'm sure. And he's still rolling through them like a freight train!!!

 

I'm well passed 30 and I believe Raja is close to 50. 

 


I would prob open a savings right now, later try for one of their CCs.

 

Anything special needed for membership? Do they HP membership?

 

I believe they don't, but I just wanted to make sure.


@Wavester64 

No they soft pull. One of the easiest CUs I've joined period. Joining takes no more than 10 mins.


Crazy question - does just opening a savings with them give you access to ther FREE EQ Fico 08?  Smiley LOL


Yup. I only have checking and savings.

OMG, opening Langley savings (and checking) TOO easy. Thanks all.

 

Maybe someday a CC, but not today.

This is true, I ran into that 1 time, now just space them  evenly apart. no issues now.


Hey buddy - what's your standard time that you feel is good for spacing them apart?  Smiley Happy

Out of curiosity what spacing do you use?

 

I haven't kept track of where that is like I probably should've.


So far a minimum of 90 days has been working. I am sure some CU's are more sensitive than others.

The one that was the most picky so far was BECU. (early part of last year.) I have now crossed that hurdle.

For the most part, I try to find Institutions who do not use Chex.


Don't worry about my last question, you just answered it here.  Smiley Happy

 

Another question however - is there a way to get your Chex report to see what's on there?
