Your call. They are all from different issuers. So it will be a matter of how fast will the HP hit the credit report.
You may want to consider the multiple browser trick.

It is possible, depending on how fast the HP hit the report.
This is why the multiple browser trick may work.

I don't think you will have a chance of recon, as the reason for the denial will be too much HPs.

In that case, why not using PayPal Here?
