Hi all - I have a default placed on my Equifax report which states the following:

 

Name Mr XX XX Date of Birth XX/XX/XXXX

Terms 0 @ £ 0 (Monthly) Status Defaulted

Current Balance £ XX Start Balance £ 0

Credit Limit £ 0 Default / Delinquent Balance £ XX

Start Date 22/07/2004 Date Updated 05/06/2007

Date Last Delinquent Date Satisfied

Default Date 02/05/2005

 

I was just wondering what 'delinquent' means, and also, if this default will drop off my report in a couple of weeks as the 2nd May signifies 6 years since the default date?

 

The rest of my report is excellent, this is the only blip as such, however it's made quite the impact on my score and I'm hoping to move properties soon and I'm concerned that I won't pass a credit reference because of this.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

yes, default will drop off soon you lucky chap. keep an eye on on your cred files to make sure it does.

Thanks for the prompt reply - hopefully my score will go to 'fair' or 'good' and not 'poor' when this is removed...!

 

In the case that it doesn't come off automatically, do I contact Equifax themselves? I don't really want to awake the sleeping dogs so to speak and contact the creditor directly....

So, I rang them on the 2nd to ask when it'd be removed and was told 'within 7 days' and that I'd receive an email. I hadn't received an email so rang them today to ask what was going on. The woman on the phone said that the default had been removed and I'd need to generate a new report to see it so. There went £11. Generated a new report and it's still there. Not impressed. Just got off the phone to them again and I'm now being told if I order it tomorrow it will be removed. So...we'll see.

If they told you it will be gone then it will be. maybe leave it a few more days then generate another report. otherwise ur just giving them ur money and they dont deserve it the thieving gits.
