No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Recently did an app spree and was approved for about 75% of the cards I applied for. Adding 12k in credit to my very low 800$ in credit that I had a month ago.
My scored dropped about 20 points from all the inquiries which is a given.
I'm assuming my scores will go up though because my available credit and utilization will go down?
Thanks
Depends
Each person is different but the general rule is 3-6 months
Also it should be noted that if all the new TL's haven't reported you could see more dings point wise due to AAoA changing
This is my second month keeping track. Last month I got my first unsecured credit cards AMEX BCP and Discover IT. My score dropped 20 points!... The next month (a week ago) I accidently let my secured BoA report 10% (usually I PIF before the statement cuts) and guess what...it raised 6 points for HAVING 10% to report.
OY. Right when I think I'm understanding this stuff. Nope. No. Nada.
So confusing... Lol oh FICO...
I know my utilization will drop to less then 10% total which is good. My Aaoa will be a year because one card reported so far
I've had my unsecured BoA card a year, waiting patiently for it to graduate. the other two are almost amonth old.
barely any credit history. I have a love of making up to do.
