HSBC reporting same new card twice..... good or bad?

I finally got my first credit card post bad time in my life in Dec. However, HSBC is reporting it twice on Equifax and only once on TU & EX. Should I bring this to their attention or just let it ride until it is no longer in my favor and get a double dose of positive reporting?

 

I have gone from TU reporting 551 to 555 and EQ went from 557 to 605

EQ- 647, EX- 641, TU- 644

I don't think I'd do anything with it yet...especially if it's not hurting you.

 

I've learned that disputing/questioning things can often end in unintended negative consequences. You don't want them taking the entire account off your reports while they look into it and then not putting it back on.

 

Eventually, if the double reporting sticks, you can dispute online as a duplicate account. I'd say let it ride for a bit first...
