Does opening and closing checking accounts affect one's credit rating?

I asked my banker about this last month, since I am due for another 25k from Chase. She said that it would not impact my credit rating to close the old checking acct and re-open another.

Me too, but I don't want to impact my credit score by opening another and/or closing the current one.

Aaah! Good. Maybe I will close one and open another. But, can you do that? Is there a restriction on how many you can open in a 12 month period?

How often can you open new accounts to get the bonus? All the coupon says is one offer per calendar year. If you opened an account 12/31 can you open another one in January and still qualify?

ETA: I can get it for $1275 because of the 30% off and free shipping code they have until the 10th and I have confirmed I can have delivery held until we move.

Late to the conversation here, but I'm pretty sure that the W hotel bed is NOT a pillow-top.

The Westin Heavenly Bed is a pillowtop; the W hotel bed is a standard mattress, which you can supplement with a featherbed (which creates a pillowtop-like bed).

One thing worth noting: the W hotel bed, outfitted with the featherbed, is a very thick set-up, as the mattress and featherbed measure about 18 or so inches thick. Purchase your sheets accordingly.

Hola. Did you try out that restaurant in Istanbul?

Well, I honestly wasn't paying too much attention :D, but supposedly it is off of Rt. 1 somewhere.

I tried to open a Chase account but they weren't accepting TN residents :rolleyes:

Missed all the P:rolleyes:sty P:rolleyes:st while giving myself a haircut and showering. I'm ready to attack the day now (at 1443 but still).
