Did you know that everytime you apply for a card that it lowers your score. It takes about six months to have the inquiries fall off unless you file a dispute to have them removed from the report directly so becareful, the continuous applying for cards may come back to bite you.

I got a capital one card with a score lower than yours and it only has an annual fee of about 40.00 and if you pay on time for 90 days they will increase your limit. But goodnatured is correct every time someone pulls your credit it lowers your score and it takes two years for them to come off. So be careful
