Duplicate credit checks when applying for MTN Product

MTN Contract Application Confirmation - Received a call - Completed Credit Check - Told that the product i'm looking for is only on offer by other staff - Told me that another Credit Check will be done

Still waiting for the correct sales consultant to contact me. This process messes up my credit rating. Why could the Sale Consultant not ask me about the product first before doing my credit rating? And why do i have to repeat the process again

Looking at https://www.experian.com/blogs/ask-experian/does-checking-your-credit-score-lower-it/#:~:text=Anytime%20your%20credit%20is%20checked,noted%20on%20your%20credit%20report.&text=Checking%20your%20own%20credit%20score,of%20hard%20inquiries%20that%20might.
This does mean that if i repeat the credit check, i'm going to damage my credit rating...
Thank you MTN for messing this up
