Anyone else random pulls from Barclay?

About 20 minutes ago I got 2 alerts, ive got 2 hard pulls on my TU report from Barclay.  I didnt apply for a CLI or any new card from them lately.

 

Anyone else get it as well or know what it could be?  At work now or I would just call and ask them why the double pulled me twice this morning.

 

Thanks

Re: Anyone else random pulls from Barclay?

what service gave you the alert?

Credite Sesame (I think it was) gave me a false alert the Barclay did this the other day
but it was really only a SP (And I called Barclay to verify.. and the Credi Analyst said.. 
CS sometimes alerts/reports even SP's /TU.

I'd suggest verifying that those are actual pulls on your reports.  Monitoring services do have issues from time to time.  False alerts can happen.

Re: Anyone else random pulls from Barclay?

I had it happen with Capital One. I got an alert via Credit Sesame. Called Cap1 to make find out why, especially considering that I had already applied for a QS1 a few days prior. I verified that there were no other apps with my info, and the rep asked me which monitoring service reported it. I told her and she said sometimes they report soft pulls that the banks do when they are going to give you a CLI or pre-approve you for another card. It should actually go away from your Credit Sesame report in a day or two.

credit karma and credit sesame always screw up so its probably nothing. If you got it from a more reliable source, then something is probably not good

Re: Anyone else random pulls from Barclay?

I usually get the same notice from Credit Sesame. I freaked out when CS gave an alert that a new inquiry from Best Buy popped up. So I pulled a report from my AMEX Credit Secure and no HP from Best Buy. Called Best Buy to verify and there was no HP. A few days later, it fell off Credit Sesame. It was indeed an AR SP

Yes when they stole my wifes purse my child support papers were in it which had my social, name and thankfully old address on it. (I just realized this last night when I saw the HPs, dont want to freeze my accounts so im just going to pay for reports/monitoring)

Yes it was CreditKarma and yes its fixed now!  Thanks, I knew they misreported when first opening account didnt realize they kept doin it. =/

*edit*
Was the first time theyve mis reported info to me so kind of threw me off.
