Hi all. I thought that I had put all of the problems with this mob behind me, but something else has surfaced. A mortgage broker has recently been looking into a remortgage for me and did a routine credit check. This threw up two adverse entries: a CCJ which has probably been satisfied, and a Default from the RBoS in 2006.
This dates back to when I was in dispute with them over bank charges and things got a little hard nosed. However, I'm sure that I responded to their threat of defaulting me with an S10 (?), and from memory they retracted. I won my bank charges back from them, but they rather pettily withdrew my Highline card (Debit/guarantee), making the account virtually useless.
This is the thing: the account is still operational, so isn't it a bit odd that a Default has been served on it? Any advice on how to proceed or a pointer to a thread that has dealt with a similar situation would be appreciated.

2nd claim against RBoS in 10/11/06, with threat of compounded contractual interest, c'mon now, concentrate...
Further to my previous post, and still looking for a bit of advice. Looking through the mass of paperwork that I received from RBoS, a notice was issued on 10th April 2006 demanding repayment of my overdraft, and on 11th April a Default Notice fee of £30 was debited from my account.
However, following this I took action through the Court to reclaim bank charges and was successful in recovering these.
At no time during this affair did the bank make any attempt to close the account. In fact, the account has remained open and functional up to the present, with the same overdraft facility in place.
Given this, should my account actually have a default registered against it? According to a recent credit report obtained whilst in the process of applying for a mortgage it still has.
Any advice gratefully received.
