Hi, does anybody know what will happen if I apply for 2 different credit cards within 4 days. What are my chances for approval from both.
Does the first application affects somehow the second for so short time?
Thanks

Maybe...maybe not

It all depends on how many inquires you have now.

There are 3 different CRA's that an application can go to.

Some applications can pull 1 or 2 or all 3

In the last 12 months I have 0 inquires. All I mean is that the time period is very short and does it go to the CRA right away? And does it look suspicios for the second creditor that I'm looking for credit?
My credit score is very good now and I wanted to get 1 card with very good rewards and another with very low APR.
