So as some of you may know i went crazy a few weeks ago with my credit.... http://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Cards/I-went-crazy-today-and-I-think-I-messed-up/td-p/1921841
Anyway, with my app spree, Chase denied me and i reconed them and they still denied me and so i got their letters in the mail and it says they pulled Transunion and i got an email alert from my Discover Identiy theft protection for all the recent credit pulls and such. So i check it out and find out they pulled Experian too! 
So I call up Chase and talk to Lending Services and i ask them about this and they place me on hold and come back and say they only pulled Transunion and i need to take it up with Experian. I actually called up a day later hoping to get a different answer and get them to remove it but i got the same answer and i even asked them if maybe their computer system pulled experian and they said no and to take it up with experian.
So I am sending off a dispute letter to Experian asking them to remove it, and i hope they remove it or i'm gonna call Chase and get in contact with their Executive Office and let them have it and ask them to remove the inquary or pay me $1,000 since they are in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act for their illegal actions!!!!!
So anyway with the illegal credit pull, Do you guys think freezing all 3 of my credit reports would prevent somethig like this happening in the future and if so what happens after they are frozen?
I am in need of some advice please before i do something stupid or crazy again! I truely appreciate you guys!

Freezing your reports will prevent lenders from accessing your credit profile. And yes, you will never get hard inquiries as a result, until you unfreeze the reports.

Given how commonly creditors pull multiple reports for the same application, I highly doubt this practice is at all illegal.

Well when both letter clearly state in black and white that they pulled Transunion and no one else, then they pulled Experian with out my knowlege and that's illegal, also they are lying to me because the credit agencies have to recieve information confirming a hp to update it to your credit profiles so someone at Chase oviously sent Experian some information about their hp and they are denying it.

Do the letters clearly state that they did not pull from a second CRA? From my experience, creditors do not tell you specifically that they pull from multiple CRA's. Technically, if you say you have a cookie, you can actually have more than one without making your statement wrong.
The Chase rep might've been misinformed. If you have proof in writing that Chase did not authorize a second inquiry on you, you can, and should, dispute the inquiry with the CRA.
