I beg your pardon.
What part of my response did not hold any truth to it?
The OP stated that he's been applying for cards 2-3 times a week (who knows for how long) and that he's been recently turned down for various cards due to TOO MANY INQUIRIES.
He also asked how long he should wait in-between applications. If he has that many inquiries on his credit reports, he should wait until some of them fall off, either that or he can B* them off if he knows how to.
Many banks (post recession) are tightening up their standards and anything over 5 inquiries is treading in shallow waters but as always YMMV.
Don't assume I don't know what I'm talking about because of my low post count here. I recently got into the mileage game so that's why I am new here. Credit is my game and I know what I'm talking about.
There's a lot of great information and advice on this board when it comes to obtaining points and miles, but one advice I will never follow is churning cards and going on constant app sprees. (Nice way to kill your AAoA and lower your FICO score).

Thank you and have a nice day.
