Each one of the three major credit bureaus will reflect at least one-third of your total credit history. If you are requesting a credit card, someone can look at your Equifax report and find nothing that would keep the credit card company from issuing you the card. However, they might also look at your other reports, Transunion and Experian, and find flaws in your credit file. That’s why it is extremely important to use a credit repair service that repairs not one, but all three of your bureaus.
