    In my experience, and I have had plenty, an invitation to apply isn't worth the paper it is printed, this send this out to the general public, even preapprovals aren't true anymore, if your credit is good then I would apply, but if it isn't great I wouldn't waste the inquiry, just my opinion though

    Very true about the so called preapproved offers.

    I responded to one of those - that's how I got my chase platinum. A great rate too prime + 1.4

    Hey I received the same invitation today! I think I will apply. I can easily see that Chase received my name and address from Trans Union which is my best report. How do I know this? The invitation does not have my middle initial and it was sent to my P O Box. TU is the only CRA that doesn't list my MI and the only CRA that has my P O Box as current address. Who knows...maybe this will turn out to be another CitiBank and everyone will be applying and thanking me!...LOL

    I had a late payment from a few years ago (I've since had that removed).

    No other negatives, but my score wasn't very good because of the number of accounts I had and my cc cards were close to being maxed.

    I was actually surprised I got it.

    Now with the late payment removed, and my current accounts, I was just approved for a mortgage. My middle score was around 640.

    Steve,

    You should wait till after you close to open any new credit accounts.

    Even though the lender has approved your mortgage, they reserve the right to re-check everything before actually disbursing the mortgage loan. You don't want to do anything to jeopardize that.

    We had a thread on that a while back. If you do a search you can find the thread and it will back up what I am saying here.
