Credit Search

Hi I have 4 credit searches in the last 2 months. Obviously lenders will look badly on this. Will they look more favourably each month that moves on or do I need to wait the year for them to be removed, before lenders will consider me credit worthy again?

They'll have little bearing in a couple of months.0

so perhaps 6 months they wont be so lethal to my credit report?0

They're unlikely to be lethal even now.0

I've had 4 searches in the last 6 months and was approved for a new card recently. I don't think 4 is that bad. If it was 40 that could be an issue :rotfl::rotfl:0

Did each of these searches result in the opening of a new credit account?0
