Accord to wallet hub generally TU, but they could pull from any of the three. So if you wondering which CRA to unfreeze I would do them all.

@Gmv,

Also their card prequalifier is not very accurate, I would just apply,

probably not the Flagship for the first card,

as I have seen many denial's for that as a first card. (of course a couple outlier's)

You are probably good for any of the others.

Yeah I was interested in applying for the NFCU more rewards Amex card as my first.

Usually TU as mentioned above. Also the prequalify is notoriously unreliable, but if you have a good report/score, you should still be approved for the MoreRewards. Good luck.

A relative joined Navy this week and applied for the secured card. Navy pulled EX and TU. The relative was told all first cards would be a double credit pull and subsequent cards would be single pulls.

@SweetCreditObsession I got an YMMV scenario if they double pulling for new credit cards. I apped yesterday and they only pulled TU (I don't know what model yet).

 

Could be because I had a pre-approval letter?

For me they only pulled Transunion.
