Equifax only?

I know this question has probably been asked a million times and that there is the thread with which CRA's are used.... However, seemingly these seem somewhat out of date or inconsistent....

So, my question is..... Has anyone recently applied for a credit card where the search was conducted on Equifax?

The reason I ask is that Experian in their ultimate wisdom have managed to list two different addresses for me (the royal mail address and the electoral address) which makes me look like I've moved recently. Despite repeated requests they keep fobbing me off.

I'm about to go travelling again soon and would like to take a credit card away with me (I have one I use for stooging), don't have any credit history issues and I'm on the electoral roll.

Any help would appreciated!
