Technically, it may be legal depending on the circumstances. A business does not need your express permission to run your credit, but must have a "permissable purpose" for doing so. Credit card companies may re-check your credit to determine continued creditworthiness, car companies can run it several times for several potential lenders, and your employer may run it for background. If the company you are referring to did not have a permissable purpose the second time, it might not be legal.

Can a spouse put a credit card in both your names without your permission?

In most cases a card holding spouse can add the other as an "authorized user" without permission, however those types of cards are not liable for repayment of the balance, even on transactions preformed on their card. It is not legal for one spouse to add the other on any credit applications has a "co-signer" without that persons permission. However, the liability would not be in the hands of the credit card company, since if you are listed as a "co-signed" and claim you did not agree, sign-up or give you spouse permission, you risk your spouse being turned over to the States Attorneys office for consideration of Credit Card and Identify Fraud.
