I looked at my EX report today, and the softs, what does the prefix DTC, and AD PRM?

Since each soft costs something I don't think a grantor would want to pay for something and not be able to act on the information.
That very well could be exactly right.

9/09 EX pulled by lender 802
3/10 EQ- 800

DTC- It means Determine(ation) To (Offer) Credit. It is for pre-approved offers.
PRM- Inquiries with this prefix indicate that only your name and address were given to a credit grantor so they can provide you a firm offer of credit or insurance.

Ok sorry for the questions lol but DTC is obviously a much more intrustive way to see the report if they are not your creditor, although i did request the recon so they had permissible purpose......just on EX website its not mentioned what that means, BTW why does Bloomingdales SOFT ME EVERY SINGE DAY on my EQ its been open forever! since April They have soft 90 TIMES! and of course weird, AMEX which i still love and have my 5 cards with. softs me 4-7 times a month weird?
Amex pulls me sometimes up to 3-4 times in a day, and I don't have a personal account with them.
I only use to carry a corp amex card.
Weird!

AMEX i dont care about, and they are softing my best CR!!! If i COULD get my real FICO i am sure its close to 810! But the concern is my Bloomingdales, as long as they have been softing EVERYDAY FOR 3 MONTHS!!! They never even pulled Equifax when they made a decision on my Major purchases account they used EX. yet they dont soft TU or EX? NO CLD no CLI weird weird weird!
