Again, doubt I'll get approved. Listed income of parents and myself for household, but since I'm not employed there may be some inconsistencies. Put "(former)" after my old position. Hope this doesn't hurt me too much.

"Yes, I have NOT been denied credit by Bank One within the last 6 months. "

I didn't fill in my name to see that before I asked the question. I applied for it. $100 for a credit inquiry hit is not so bad.

EDIT:
forgot to thank tgif777 for the post!

A "$100 Card Credit" - Is That a Gift Card value to ONLY Sony products?

No....You're wrong....

Each Hard pull result from 2-4 pts deducted for 2-4 months of your CR.

But hey, 2-4 pts for $100 Bucks? I'll do it anyday!

I guess that I'm just lucky then.

Never have points been deducted from my score due to C.C. apps.

and this is coming from someone who claims they have a 950 fico score in another thread

here's the facts from myfico.com:


Inquiries may or may not affect your FICO score.
A FICO score takes into account only voluntary inquiries that result from your application for credit. The information about inquiries that can be factored into your FICO score includes:

Number of recently opened accounts, and proportion of accounts that are recently opened, by type of account.
Number of recent credit inquiries.
Time since recent account opening(s), by type of account.
Time since credit inquiry(ies).

For many people, one additional credit inquiry (voluntary and initiated by an application for credit) may not affect their FICO score at all. For others, one additional inquiry would take less than 5 points off their FICO score.

Inquiries can have a greater impact, however, if you have few accounts or a short credit history. Large numbers of inquiries also mean greater risk: People with six inquiries or more on their credit reports are eight times more likely to declare bankruptcy than people with no inquiries on their reports.


Will my FICO score drop if I apply for new credit?
If it does, it probably won't drop much. If you apply for several credit cards within a short period of time, multiple inquiries will appear on your report. Looking for new credit can equate with higher risk, but most credit scores are not affected by multiple inquiries from auto or mortgage lenders within a short period of time. Typically, these are treated as a single inquiry and will have little impact on the credit score.


If you have good credit and are NOT applying for a mortgage or loan who cares if your score drops?

I checked my Privacyguard just now, Bank One pulled Transunion for me today when I applied. Good thing cause MBNA and Citi have been pulling Experian.

EDIT: located in NJ

Where are you located that they pulled TU?

thanks for the deal

30 days.

Theres a scan advertisement of this card offer in my Sunday Paper.

Same offer as the website $100 for 1st purchase - doesnt state minimum... sounds too easy, but hey I'll take a shot.

anyone check their account recently? they credited my account twice, but now they took one back. So check your account, I didn't even notice the 2nd credit.
