BE V-E-R-Y CAREFUL IF YOU APPLIY FROM A MORTGAGE/CREDIT CARD ON THE INTERNET WITH EGG.COM...(posted 8912 days ago)I've been rejected for a credit card and have been trying to get a reason since 20/11/99 - My credit ref is fine (been accepted for a mortgage by R.B.S. and got an MBNA card with #7K limit). The problem is thatr each time these companies do a credit check on you YOUR PERSONAL DETAILS ARE FINGER-PRINTED BY THE CREDIT REF AGENCIES LIKE EXPERION etc AND THIS REDUCES YOUR CREDIT RATING - according to a representitive at EGG - I am still awaiting a response from EGG as to why my application was rejected and re-asurance that the enquiries that they made have not in any way damaged my credit score. I will keep you posted as to what response I receive, positive or negative. Regards
