Signing for a credit card for a promo?

[tjthemanto]

Sign up for Equifax.ca 30-day trial. That doesn't pull TransUnion score though

Anyway, credit card applying for bonus or churning is an art
See my big thread on R F D ...... whole point is to sign up CC for the welcome bonus, and cancel before renewal

As for RSM $100 GC, it's usually on approval, no use needed. I just did one for MBNA 0% Platinum MC

Does someone know how many points we loose when we apply for a new credit card?

jerryhung seems to know a lot.
