How to Get Info on an Inquiry

supervelous · ‎09-03-2013

I noticed a hard inquiry on my Equifax report from Elan Financial Services in March 2013, but don't recall applying for anythng. All the other inquiries on my report I remember, have obvious creditors (Chase, Amex, etc), and have phone numbers. This one doesn't have a phone number, the only one.

How can I figure out what this was for?

I would call Equifax customer service, and see if they can give full details.

US Bank, Key Bank and a few credit unions are all associated with Elan

yeah, I had heard that and I know my Credit Union where I have my auto loan I believe is associated with Elan for their credit cards. But, like I said I don't remember apping for anything during that timeframe.
