Three credit card applications i can't remember doing

TrueUnitedFan

Hi there, there are three credit card applications i can't even remember doing on experian.

One was a santander credit card and amount says £150?

Entry Number: P4
Name: xxxxxxx
Address: xxxxxxxxxxx
Date of birth: xxxxx
Searched on: xxxxxxx
Time at address: xxxxxxxx
Amount: £150
Searched By: SANTANDER CARDS UK
Application Type: Credit Card

Also two searches for halifax, i can remember applying for a barclays card, but i really can't remembering aplying for halifax card, and if i did, i certainty didn't make two applications online.

Name: xxxxxxxxxx
Address: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Date of birth: xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Searched on: 03/01/2012
Time at address: xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Searched By: HALIFAX PLC
Application Type: Credit Card
Entry Number: P10

Name: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Address: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Date of birth: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Searched on: 03/01/2012
Searched By: HALIFAX PLC
Application Type: Credit Card

Shall i dispute this? I also don't want my credit file messed up, because if i didn't do it i'm sure markers would be put on my account and reduce my chances of obtaining any credit in the future.

Applied for so many you can't keep track?

1) Santander back many other cards - did you apply for an Asda card?

2) Some searches leave a duplicate. I guess you could call to get one removed.

Topman card is backed by santander, so this is why they have credit checked you

Don't you have multiple user names, some of which have jobs and others that don't?

Just saying.

Posts 17,19 and 20 are rather telling.

Halifax recorded 2 searches when they gave me their all in one credit card. Sent an email to experian and they removed the duplicate search.

Same here ! Although this was through Aqua who gave me a card with an £800 limit, they put down 2 searches on my file. perhaps ones for general credit and the other is just a fraud search or something ?

The same thing happened to me and I had the duplicate searches removed they are full searches not fraud or I.D etc etc.
