Credit Lenders etc get this look on their faces when they see how many times in a given period of time (varies or used to) that someone ran your credit... It CAN result in a denial on a perfectly sound credit record. You can have a million in the bank, and have 20 runs on your rating and be denied!

Just a FYI for you younger people. ;-)p
Absolutely correct, you will be branded a credit seeker, not a good thing
