I think is usually Experian but they can pull other as well.

Check out the credit pulls database.

Meanwhile, I checked my records and for my app they had pulled all 3 here in Texas. Last month they pulled EX for my DW's app.

Not to hijack your thread OP. But I am so sick of these prime banks pulling from Experian.  Why? All cards I have applied to are always experian. Can someone explain?

It perhaps has something to do with the fact that EX inquiries are very sticky. Smiley Wink

I'm in FL too and applied for a secured card. They pulled Experian on me. Instant denial and 7-10 day letter.

Sorry to hear that.. But a secured card should be a soft pull just my 2 cents.
