Are You Searching for Credit? - The List

sampleWhen searching for the perfect credit card or loans it can be helpful to know what credit reporting agency the creditor is using for the process.  Some CreditManiacs started this list, for letting you know what credit bureau is used by certain creditors. This can be helpful if you know one of your bureaus files is better than another. Please realize that many times creditors may use the closest bureaus to your home. You may not get the same results as others. If you know any additions or corrections let us know!  Good luck on getting approved for the credit you deserve.  Searching for the perfect credit card offers should stop here.   Whether you have excellent, average, or poor credit this list is a great place to start when seeking new or more credit.
