Hi i need help, ive read through so many posts on here and they are full of really useful info, but im also confused with it all .:|

Since 2006 i have been on a DMP and have just partial settled with them all. Most of the creditors defaulted me in 2007, when i started my DMP which i fully understand due to me paying reduced payments. After sending out mt partial settlements via payplan i have obtained my credit report and have discovered that after being on a DMP for nearly 7 years

Lloyds TSB only defaulted me on 28/06/2012

freemans catologue defaulted me on 11/07/2011

Robinsonway defaulted me on 11/06/2008

Cabot defaulted me on 21/12/2008

this means that my credit status has been rubbish for the past 7 years ( which i understand ias i was on DMP) But its also going to be bad for another 6 years because of these late defaults.

Is there anyway of having them removed or the dates altered to when i originally defaulted at the start of my DMP.

All help is greatly appreciated as i am confused as to which letter templates i should use

Please please please help :-):-):-):-):-):-)

Stand up for the little man !

Are you still with payplan (PP)?

 

What debts are robbersway and Cr@pbot collecting?

 

Have you paid these off now?

Hi Welcome to CAG!!

 

Could you please post a suitable redacted copy of these credit file entries something seems very wrong here.

 

I can certainly challenge all the entries if you can give me the original dates.

Ok what I'm seeing is Freemans default date 11/07/11

Robinsonway '' '' 11/06/08

Cabot '' '' 21/12/08

 

To make any challenge to these would need to know what the status was for each debt Prior to the sale.

 

Do you think/know if these are the Original default dates or have they been changed?

Hi Lisa

 

I had the same issue you need to write to the OC pointing out the fact that the default date is incorrect and you could remind them of the ico guidelines, give them a few weeks to reply and if they don't rectify then you can raise with the ico (as i had to do) do you have copies of the original default notice?

As the previous poster says, write to each creditor pointing out that the default date is wrong and asking them to correct it.

 

If they refuse or don't reply you can then complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.

Those that have reported a default more than 6 months after the cause of action in this case entry into a DMP can be challenged, do you know if these were already defaulted by the creditor, banks usually default quite quickly.

The only default i have a copy of is from lloyds ive never received them in paper form from any of the others, only knew about them after getting my credit report. This is all i kne abiut them as i say ive never received anything written from the other 3 apart from statements.

Cabot wa a capital one credit card & robinsonway was cahoot credit card niether capital one or cahoot gave me any defaults, its only happened when these othe companies have taken over.

''It's onl happened since these other companies took over'' this makes me suspicious of the dates, it has been known for a DCA to claim that a default runs from the date they ''aquired'' the account.

I wrote to each company asking them to change the default date to when the account was originally in default when i started the DMP in 2006, i gave them 14 days to respond :-) . So far i have had a reply from Cabot, which is as follows,

'Dear miss #######

YOUR QUERY

further to your recent letter regarding the account.

Please be advised that we have requested information from Capital One concerning clarificationof your default date.

We shall keep you informed of our progress.

If we may be of further assistance do not hesitate to telephone us on the number shown below.'

 

Well ive read enough on these boards to know NOT to telephone and to communicate only by recorded letter. Can anybody advise what i should do next.? How to repsond to this letter as it sounds to me that there just fobbing me off to be honest, how long should i wait to respond?

Many thanks in advance :-)

Wait for the full response! 14 days is reasonable.

Hi I received a reply from freemans saying they will reply within 8 weeks and I have also got a reply from Robinson way saying I need to contact cahoot as there saying the default was on the account already when they purchased it in July 2008.

Any advice on how to proceed with the two ?

Many thanks in advance

:-)

I think the ICO would insist you wait 8 weeks before complaining to them so if Freemans haven't replied within 8 weeks of the date of your letter just pass that one to the ICO.

 

Over Robinson Way I have a feeling it is up to them to make sure data they hold is accurate so you could write back saying it's up to them to contact Cahoot or ask if that is their final response so you can go to the ICO. It may however be quicker to just write to Cahoot and see what they have to say.

RW are passing the buck really they now own the debt and are resonsible for the cra file entries,but you can try approaching Cahoot about it.

Personally I would write a simple 'please reply to my letter of .....' and leave it at that. If they can't be bothered to reply to you then as soon as 8 weeks have passed just go to the ICO.

Hi,

New to this wonderful site, so much great information. Sorry to piggyback you on this one. But I am in a similar situation. I took out a DMP also with payplan, also in 2006. I am now debt free too and I am looking into my credit file in the hope of moving house. I had two defaults on my file still showing (as all of the other creditors defaulted me back in 2006. The only two remaining are black horse (defaulted nov 09) and Opus (was citi credit card) (defaulted feb 10) I started a dispute through equifax re them both as I believed they should have defaulted in dec 2006 (as I had had 6 reduced/late payments by then) as this is when most of my creditors did at number 6 on Equifax report. The GOOD NEWS is black horse replied within 4 days and said they agree and will remove default!!!! this has been done. Opus replied saying they have limited info from citi but they would suggest a later default date then feb 10 as it was settled a few months later!!!!!! My question is are creditors restricted as to when they can default you, ie, is it not best practice to default me within first 6 months of my DMP???? how can they justify giving it 4 years later?

There is a chance you could have some help getting them removed through equifax dispute - so I hope this helps you.

If there is anyone who can give me some help in relation to my citi/opus default, I would be very grateful as this is the only thing holding my family back now and I feel so to blame.

Thanks in advance everyone x
