Not familiar with this card so I Google the card and came up with GE Money as the backer and it appears that they do pull EQ however that does not mean that they did in you case; as you know depending on your location it could be TU or EX. I would give it a day and call and speak with a csr. You can also go to whogavemecredit and put in your State to see what they pull.
Remember not all 7-10 day messages mean denial DH got a 7-10- day from Target and card came in the mail.
