Postal Letter

Will my change of address ruin my chances of being approved for a credit card?

Awhile ago, I received a pre-approval application for a credit card, but I've since moved. I've done an official address change with the USPS, but I wonder if putting my new address on the application will ruin my chances of getting the card. Should I use my new address or the old one?

  1. use your new address it's not going to affect anything
  2. Should not matter too much. You can always call the number to activate it and ask. May depend if you are renting or buying, but the offer is based on your history, so unless you move very often, I do not feel it would make any difference to the credit offer.
  3. that shouldnt affect your chances of getting this credit card Good luck. check out david ramsey site helped me. be careful with credit cards
  4. no should be fine
  5. best thing to do is use your old address for now and make sure your mail is being forwarded to your new Addy... make sure you set your mail up accordingly before you apply...

  7. Use the new address. You don't want to lie on a credit application. In most cases, it is a federal offense to mislead a federally insured financial institution. Generally, creditors don't care how long you have been at your address, as long as you have some credit and you have been on your job for a while.
