Possible Synchrony Bank data point

 About 3 weeks ago I went to a furniture store just to look and ended up buying new furniture because of a great 24 months no interest promotion going on. I didn't know that Synchony was the issuing bank for the promotion. That made me feel confident since I already have Walmart and Lowes cards with them.  Anyway I was instantly approved and I still haven't had an HP on my credit report.  So I'm thinking if you already have an account with Synchrony then it's possible they may just do a soft pull when applying for cards issued by them. Don't know this for sure but I am 100% sure they did not do a HP.  Anyone else experience this? Please share.

No its always a HP sometimes it takes time, at times can take the same day in other times it can take over a week have had that happen. Hell at one point it took two weeks for them to report for one of my cards can't remember which one. One I know for sure that pulls right away and reports right away is Ebates.

Trust me it will report,they are just a little late in doing so. I had one HP report 11 days later.....and for a minute i thought "sweet no hard pull"! Then it was there so bummer.

Also, a few reporting services seem to take some time to have the inquiry show up.
