They stay on for two years.

Stop applying for a lot of different loans and credit cards. When a lender looks at that and sees a bunch of different inquiries on there, it looks like you are desperate or something and it really does lower your score.

If you have credit cards now, use them judiciously over the next year or so and pay everything on time. On time payments make up 35% of your score. Reduce your debt. How much you already owe makes up 30% of your score.

Your score will go back up but you need to stop applying all over the place. Pick a credit card or two and stick with them and stop trying to find a better deal. In the long run, the better deal has hurt you.

This all depends on where you are.

UK credit report companies keep records of your credit searches for 6 months, this is just a record of who has looked at your credit report. If you then had a loan, Credit card or mortgage then the information for that will remain on the system for between 3 and 6 years after the debt has been settled. CCJ%26#039;s take a bit longer, I think between 6 and 10 years after settlement to clear from the report.

Sadly the fact your history has shown you have done a fair bit of searching does have an effect. It is what is known as risk assessment. Theory being that is you have been turned down in the past by 3 or 4 companies then why should this 5th company be any different? Plus they will look at who done the searches if the 5th applicant is not one of the desirable lot but your previous 4 searches were the top end then it may not be too bad but if it was the other way round it would not get past step 1.

Example - MBNA, Barclaycard- high end

Vanquis or Capital one low end.

The likes of Vanquis feed on those who cannot get top end cards like MBNA, american express where as if you have been turned down by Vanquis etc then MBNA will not entertain you.
