Which Bank Pulls From All 3 CB?
« on: January 26, 2012, 02:03:21 PM »
Dan wrote that only Capital One is known being evil by pulling from all 3 Credit Bureaus. I applied for Amex, and I see a pull on all bureaus, called them up, CSR told me they regularly pull from all 3. What's your experience?  (now comes the popular DDF slogan: "the CSR don't know what she's talking about, only Dan do")

I've applied for hundreds of AMEX/Chase/Citi cards and have never once gotten pulls from all 3 CBs.
When I applied for the 100k C1 promo I got hit on all 3 CBs.

Capital one does. And from the previous posts you seem to be a fan of Capital One, are you by any chance mistaken?

in the case of Cap1 you're right, I had the experience with them twice when they pulled from all 3. But in the case of Amex I'm not mistaken. Any suggestions why and weather I can do something about it?

AMEX pulled 2 of mine once, but that was because my address had changed and as such it didn't match the credit file (I think).

CSRs not having a clue has nothing to do with what Dan does or doesn't know :D

Same for me, just for dozens of cards, not hundreds.
AMEX pulled 2 of mine once, but that was because my address had changed and as such it didn't match the credit file (I think).

Yours was a fluke where they re-pulled, definitely not the norm.
