I appllied for and was DENIED a CC w/Discount Tire on Monday, however, I can't see where they've pulled my CBR at all! I subscribe to TrueCredit, ScoreWatch and the Quarterly Reporting - and NONE of them are showing them as an inquiry.
I also applied for and was APPROVED for a Cap 1 card two days later - they pulled both TU and EX, and the inq appeared immediately (not that I got an alert from ScoreWatch, but I saw it on my TrueCredit report)...
Any ideas on why it's taking so long to see the inq from Discount Tire? Should I call to speak w/someone?

I've actually had better luck w/TC alerts than with the myFICO products I've purchased - still nothing from them regarding these inquiries! Oh well.
Anyway, I guess it's possible that Discount Tire pulled a soft inquiry - I'll know more in a few weeks - I just sent a letter to the bureaus for another card that I was declined for to request free copies of my reports.
