Well I called number on back of card and was given 800-528-2334 for Underwriting.

He put me on hold and came back in seconds saying I had a freeze on my EQ, true but they used TU to approve me... he says they only use EQ for account reviews and CLI...hmmm

That's horrible. TU to approve and EQ to review. That in itself doesnt make sense. But good info to know.

It's probably so they can get a better picture of your whole credit report, although I agree that it's pretty odd. You'd think that they'd either stick to the same CRA or pick a random one each time (to prevent people from trying to hide details/only use their best report).
