I applied for a Cap One MC on 11/20. Went to CE, score went up nine points as of 11/20/2001. Yikes, this is scary...
I have had two inquiries this month. First one resulted in eight point drop, second on in 2 point drop.
I forgot that I had a dispute pending (heehee). They deleted a medical collection and a cell phone account on the same day. That is probably what upped my score. Probably would have been more without the inquiry Im a happy camper anyway.
