<prompt> Human: I recently did a credit report through Experian and saw that I had A LOT of credit inquires from Wells Fargo, Discover, and a couple other companies. I understand that when a card company sends you a preapproved card they soft pull your credit, but do these pulls show up on the report? Im wondering if the inquiries Im looking at are hard or soft inquiries and if I need to do something about this. My credit score is excellent so I dont think its affecting anything but its alarming to see so many inquiries being made.  <response>: Yes, you will see them on your own report. They arent provided to 3rd parties who pull your report
