Both my local CU's have pulled Experian exclusively. 

 

I recommend Alliant CU (available nationwide) - they pull EQ.

And I still like Cabela's - which pulls EQ.

All my GEMB merchant cards pull EQ, but I'm not a super fan of merchant cards unless they serve a useful purpose i.e. you shop there a lot and they give discounts or some such.


Interesting.  Cabelas pulled EX for me.  They pulled EX when I first opened it.  Then, a few months ago, there was a fraud alert and they said they were going to close that account and open a new one. So, they closed the account, and then they pulled EX again and denied me the new account Smiley Mad  I think they just made up the fraud issue (it was for a $2 cup of coffee somewhere) to give them an excuse to close my account. 

 

Also, GEMB pulled TU for me when I applied for a Lowe's CC.  I think they pulled EQ when I got my Wal Mart CC, though.

 

Ultimately, I don't think there is any rhyme or reason to who pulls what when.  Local credit unions appear pretty easy to pattern, but geographic location seems to determine what they pull.

I guess that narrows my list down to Alliant.  Smiley Indifferent

 

So, OP is in Indiana.  Anyone from that area that knows who pulls EQ???

Thanks guys. I eneded up getting an Orchard card while in Alabama so they only pulled my EQ. they gave me a small balance of $300 but 6 months later, my Trans Union is up and at 705. Now I think i can go on to a bigger (and BETTER) card.

Two of the CU here that I'm a member of pull exclusively EX

 

Discover pulls exclusively EQ I believe and they pull the new version of EQ FICO08.

Discover does not pull exclusively from any of the bureau's. They have been known to pull bureau's more by region, but this theory is also not full proof.
