Hmm...how do the cardinality numbers in the plan reflect reality?  Are
they significantly off?  If so, a cardinality hint may get you going in
the right direction.

Not much to go on here, so, it's just a guess....

I am  using 10g.

The difference in the execution plan is:
This is by itself:
         INDEX* (RANGE SCAN) OF 'XP_DBCR_CARD_NO' (INDEX) (Co :Q1000
          st=1 Card=3 Bytes=75)

and this is when it is part of the union ALL:

       INDEX* (FAST FULL SCAN) OF 'XP_DBCR_CARD_NO' (IN :Q1000
          DEX) (Cost=3251 Card=154734 Bytes=3868350)
