Does Applying for Loans and Credit Drive Down Your FICO Credit Score<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

By Larry Chiang<\/p>\n

Seeking that higher credit score while you’re applying for credit is like begging for LP money as a VC at Venture Alpha<\/a>. It is hard to be dignified when you’re applying.<\/p>\n

Here are the credit patterns I observe. I recommend that you pattern iterate and pattern replicate your way to better FICO credit score.<\/p>\n

If you are applying for credit, then you and your social security number gets pinged for an INQ. This is a credit INQ and it slightly dings your credit. INQ is credit inquiry.<\/p>\n

You wanna fax your credit report — especially if you’re applying for credit as a corporation<\/p>\n

If you are applying for credit as a corporation, you are slightly dinged even more when you do not have a fax machine. Companies with fax machines have way more revenue that companies that use jFax, eFax or MyAssFax. <\/p>\n

When you’re applying for a personal car loan, you wanna fax or email your credit report to all the people you want a loan from so that they all don’t pull your credit report. You get bonus points for faxing your credit report for your work’s fax. By being at work using their fax you are basically confirming your employment too.<\/p>\n

Stop mentally arguing about the pattern I recognize. <\/p>\n

The credit world is a world based on laws that favor the use of paper and snail mail postage in the form of a US postage stamp. The rules of credit are written this way so your FICO score is protected via mail and postage (not email and world wide web)<\/p>\n
