I would do them all at the same time.
It seems to take a while for them to show up, so if you do them all together they won't see each other.
But after that I would hang fire on applications for at least 3 months.
If you have anything important coming up like a mortgage then you need to reconsider.
If you don't need to apply for any other credit then it shouldn't be an issue.
Apply together and they probably won't seee the new searches or the new accounts.0
