I was going to open a new bank account, particularly the Wells Fargo promotion that puts $400 in your account if you meet some direct deposit requirements.
I called and asked if they will do a "hard" pull on my credit but they could not tell me.
In general does opening a checking account cause a credit report pull.
More importantly I guess, is are they required to ask my permission to make the pull considering I will have to give them all the information any ways just to open the account?
