Key Takeaways

More questions? More answers.

What's the difference between a credit freeze and a credit lock on Experian?

There is no actual difference. By law, a freeze needs to be offered for free. Experian wants to charge you so they offer a freeze for free but for a lock they want you to pay a membership. They both do the same thing

Is it possible to reallocate my credit limit from a personal Chase card to a business card?

No, you can only transfer credit limits from personal to personal or from business to business within Chase.

Does obtaining a credit limit increase from Chase involve a credit check?

No, Chase does not pull credit for a credit limit increase.

Bank	Credit Bureau	Notes
Amex	Experian	For existing Amex cardholders, Amex does not pull your credit for new credit card applications.
Avianca	TransUnion
Apple Card	TransUnion	They will first only do a soft pull to check if you qualify. If you qualify and accept the offer, then they do a hard pull. Some have had success avoiding the hard pull by freezing TransUnion after the preapproval but before the final decision.
Barclays	TransUnion
Bank of America	Experian	If you freeze your Experian report, they will pull your TransUnion credit report.
Capital One	Experian, Transunion, Equifax	If you freeze one credit bureau, you can still get approved (the credit bureau you freeze cannot be TransUnion).
Chase	Experian

Citizens	Equifax

US Bank	Experian	If you frequently apply for credit cards, first freeze your IDA/ARS bureaus before applying for a US Bank credit card.
