    Anybody know of a good BT card that pulls mainly from TU for approval? My Experian has on bad account and Equifax is BAD, student loans to fix...

    Thx

    Citibank 0% apr for BT for 9 months through coupon ads, 2.9 or 3.9% through online site...


    Chase 2.9% apr through online site...


    Both really rely on TU nearly exclusively.

    I beg to differ.

    According to the inquiries that have been added to www.millcbs.com just within the past 6 months, here is the breakdown:

    Citibank:
    EXP: 12
    EQU: 21
    TU: 12

    It seems that the majority of the Equifax inquiries were from those in the east and southeast USA, while the midwest/west/southwest had their TU or Experian pulled.

    As for Chase:
    EXP: 7
    EQU: 0
    TU: 16

    30% of the Chase inquiries within the past 6 months went to Experian, not TU. I would not call that 'exclusive'.

    I stand corrected. As a scientist, I can appreciate the real figures, since they don't lie. :)

    That's an interesting site, definitely. Makes some sense also, as I was just approved for a Providian $1000 Gold card, and my Experian number is very good, and Equifax is poor. Results for last 12 months Providian has Equifax 2 times and Experian 4 times.
