Default on Credit Report
Hi I was wondering if anyone could help? I was on a dmp and then went onto a protected trust deed (Scotland) and have just looked on Noodle and my accounts are in default since Feb 2012 (which I obviously knew about). My question is does every other month I pay my TD show as a default until I have settled the amounts?…

Understanding linked addresses
Just trying to understand how linked addresses work. When a lender carries out a search, are reports created for each linked address? i.e. if some accounts were settled while you were at first address.

Confused which agency to use?
Hi, Although I try to remember to cancel and close credit card accounts once repaid, I am not 100% certain that I always have in the past.

Feels like i'm loosing the battle
Having been reading on here for the past few days that Equifax don't automatically remove accounts with default date over 6 years old I thought i'd best pay the £2 and have a look for my own peace of mind that my old defaulted Natwest loan account had been removed. The worst case scenario I thought was that the default was…

What impact, if any, does available credit have on your credit file? Over two credit cards and two overdrafts, I have £10900 of very rarely used credit. Is it worth ditching one card and one overdraft?

Had an application declined due to my score with callcredit apparently. Tried to register on their website to see what the problem is, but they apparently can't verify my details. Have looked at my equifax account and only thing I can see that could cause an issue is a CIFAS warning saying that I was the victim of identity…
