Tesco Credit Card

I have just read a thread about the various CRAs various banks, credit card companies and catalogues use to search for your credit report and report to. Does anyone know which CRA Tesco would search when you apply for their credit card and how strict they are in issuing credit cards? Thanks.

    Tesco use Experian but if you have adverse there, they will follow-up with a soft search on Equifax as well.

    They are easy to get, so are all Natwest / RBC cards but they are funny beggers in that you get an agreement and then you send it back to get a decline, eh? How odd - yea, cos they have a verification dept who double check things and this makes things harder.....

    Good Luck!
