Many card friends want to raise the amount through the second card, but the first card is not activated, so they want to know if it will affect the application for the second card. Then, will the second card be rejected if the first card is not activated? Below, let's analyze it. In fact, according to common sense, it is relatively easy to apply for the second card after the first card comes down, but the approval of the second card is also a comprehensive evaluation of the applicant's credit conditions. So it seems that whether the first card is activated or not does not affect the application for the second card, but according to many card friends' feedback, the result of applying for the second card is rejected every time, which is also very likely to happen. There are two reasons: 1. If you apply for the first card online, you must go to the counter for face-to-face interview to activate it. If you don't go to face-to-face interview to activate it, it's not really successful. This situation will probably lead to the rejection of the second card; 2. If the first card can be activated directly without face-to-face, but it is not activated, it may also affect the approval of the second card. After all, credit card business card printing is also costly. If the first card is not activated, the bank is afraid that the second card will not be used, and it is definitely unwilling to waste the cost of issuing the card. Therefore, the correct way is to activate the first card before handling the second card, and use it for at least 3 months. The frequency of swiping the card is second to high, and diversified consumption. It is important to repay on time, preferably in full, and then apply for the second card after paying the bill for three periods, so that the success rate of card approval will be higher. When the second card is available, if you think the first card is really useless, just call the bank to cancel the first card. Here, it should be noted that if you cancel a single card, you must cancel it. Don't cancel your account, otherwise your second card will also be cancelled.
