in Credit cards
Hi. I applied for an egg card 3 days ago and got approved online and gave me my credit limit. They said they'll send my card via post 7-10 days.
I checked my experian report today and they checked again my credit file today. BUt it says that it's an unrecorded enquiry.
What does this mean?
please help.

What is an Unrecorded Enquiry?An Unrecorded Enquiry is a search that was not made for lending purposes. It will not be seen by any lender but it is included on your credit report so that you are aware that the search was made.0

It's probably just an initial ID enquiry, before they carry out the full search...
"What is an unrecorded enquiry?
An unrecorded enquiry is a search that was not made for lending purposes. It is not seen by lenders other than the one that carried out the search. It is included on your credit report so you know the search was made."
