Re: Inquiries

The following information is for educational purposes only and is correct based on my experiences as of 04/06/2008. If you are applying for credit from a certain creditor, make sure that your credit score is decent at the corresponding credit bureau so that you have a better chance of getting approved. This way you will not have unnecessary hard inquiries on your reports: (Hard Inquiries negatively impact your scores).

The following creditors use EQUIFAX:
1. ING Direct / Sharebuilder Securities
2. Wachovia Bank
3. Redstone Federal Credit Union
4. Citibank
5. Target National Bank
6. First Bank of Delaware

The following creditors use EXPERIAN:
1. Bank of America
2. Capital One
3. Credit One Bank
4. Plains Commerce Bank
5. Verizon Wireless

The following creditors use TRANSUNION:
1. Capital One
2. T-Mobile
3. HS BC AUTO
4. Bank of America AUTO
5. 1st Bank DE/CF

I will try to update this list frequently. I live in ALABAMA and this list is good for this geographic region, atleast.

The slide from grace is really more like gliding
And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid
