Isn't there a large database/link on FatWallet that helps you find out this info? I remember seeing it a couple years ago. Or I'm just senile. :) Thanks, ingy.

Great idea...where can we find information on what credit bureau pulled our credit?

Will there be a searchable database like the one at CB?

There's on at credit boards. dunno about FW

From your credit report. Usually new credit cards will only pull 1 credit report so you'd see an inquiry from AMEX on 1 but not the other 2.

Card Issuer :Barclays Bank Delaware
Card Type: US Airways Dividend Miles Mastercard
City and State: Dallas, TX
Date of Inquiries: 10/10/2010
Credit Agency: Equifax

Is this the place to discuss other things related to an inquire? Like putting a freeze to get a different CR pulled? How to get an inquire removed or bumped?

All of my Citi/Chase/Amex Card applications in the past 2 years hit Experian. As a result, I have ALOT of inquiries with Experian, but almost nothing with TransUnion and Equifax. This is very frustrating as most of the good offers come from Citi/Chase, and I can't get in no more. Anyone in the NYC area know who pulls from TransUnion and Equifax?

Card Issuer: Chase & Citi
Card Type: Continental One Pass Plus & Citi AA Visa
City and State: Queens, NY
Approx Inquiry Date 9/30/2010
Credit Agency: Experian

Optional Info:
Credit Score: 760+ (MyFico.com)
Result: All Rejected due to "Too many inquiries..."
P.S: Sent in reconsideration letters, have yet to hear anything back.

Does all these pulls ruin your credit

Issuer: CitiBank
Cards: Advantage Visa, AmEx, and Business Visa
Date: May 7, 2010
Location: Washington, DC
Credit Report: Experian
Score (Credit Karma): 770
Neighbors who have gotten these cards recently have all also had Experian reports.

Citi AAdvantage pulls Transunion in California. Freeze Experian and see if they pull the other bureaus. Since Citi pulls TU in Calif, freezing Experian may work.

Card: Citibank AAdvantage Personal Visa, AMEX
Date: Early August 2010
Bureau: Transunion
Approved. FICO approx 720-730 range.
Location: Southern California
