Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
If you have a valid debt, irrespective of how it be made up, then the CRAs will report on the status of the debt and the outstanding balance etc, if the courts decide in your favour and the bank refunds your charges, then this should be reflected accurately on your credit account.
If the court rules in your favour that there is no debt to answer to, then the default should be removed from your account

yep, this account has around 3 months to run on it till S/B, however they tried to get it quite some time back to no avail, so looks like they trying before S/B.
Be careful with your CCA request. Be sure to say that you do not acknowledge the debt and the £1.00 is for the statutory fee only and is not a payment towards the account.
Not sure what would happen if you didn't send the £1.00 - it might make them write & ask for it, which would be good, or they might not bother with the pound.
Personally, I'd wait 'til it is statute barred and then send them the SB letter
