Can you please list the default date for each account?

All defaulted entries are removed after 6 years paid or not, getting a defgault entry removed is difficult,you must have very good reasons to put forward, bear in mind the credit reference agnecies cannot remove or amend entries wiithout the leave of the company that has placed an entry.

 

Grounds for removal are few:

 

1. If a default is placed and unreasonably long time after the cause of action, (The ICO states that defaults should be place within 6 months of coa).

2. The default date is wrong or has ben altered.

3. If the default sum is made upof charges without which the acoount would not have defaulted then NO default should have been placed.

4. Very hard to prove this one: No default notice was received or it was ''faulty:'' DNs are not rourinely stored as hard copy by the creditors. a note is made on the customers file that a DN was sent on xx xx xxxx, and that is all they have to state, and a new/corrected DN can be made at any time.

I presume that no other companies are chasing the remaining balances on the ''partially'' settled accounts?

 

Are there any valid reasons for disputing the defaults.

well im not sure.. tbh.

 

HSBC was a loan i got out and gave to my friend when he was in trouble... he decided to no longer pay it back (im a mug i know).

Santander i think i refused to pay their daily O/D charges and it defaulted.

Co-Op was similar situation to Santander.

Lowell is for a phone bill with 3 that i have NO RECOLLECTIOn of having.. was a long time ago.

1st credit was for a credit card from over 10 years ago!!! (again no memory)...

I have had Lloyds TSB default me in 2012 despite going on a DMP in 2009. Does this mean I could get a default removed? If the default was removed, does that mean the late payments will be visible for longer on my credit file?

Are these dates the dates on which the default was placed by the original creditor ?

 

If so, then I would say that these are the dates that they will drop off your file..

 

HSBC 16/08/2011 - August 2017

SANTANDER 1/6/2009 (partial settled) - June 2015

CO OP 21/7/2010 - July 2016

LOWELL 8/8/2008 - August 2014

ARROW GLOBAL 29/9/2009 - September 2015

1st CREDIT 12/1/2011 (partial settled) - January 2017

 

 

You need to establish when the original Default marker should have been placed... which according to the ICO should be at most, 6 months after the Default took place.
