Thread: Duplicate Defaults

I have an ongoing issue with MBNA/LINK.

History is MBNA defaulted the account whilst I was reclaiming unfair charges and registered the default on my credit record. MBNA have since sold the debt to Link who have now also registered a default for the credit card.

The same default entry, with the same date and amount appear on my credit record (callcredit) from both companies.

There is a single entry for the account on Equifax with the same default date, but the default amount is for the current balance rather than the default amount.

How do I go about getting one of the defaults on the callcredit report removed? Do I deal with the OC or the DCA? Or do I go directly to Callcredit? Is there any template letters in dealing with this?

Do I deal with the incorrect amount on Equifax? Or just leave it for now?

Advice appreciated.

Right, I have send a recorded delivery letter to Callcredit asking them to remove the MBNA entry. I have included the letter of assignment from Link as proof. I have given them 21 days to comply. Hope that will be enough to get it cleared up.

Interesting though, the post office have no record of the PO Box they advertise on their website.
