However 1 didn't default until they sold the debt on so their entry had a default date of 2006 and showing as fully settled. There is another…

Friday 3rd September - What small things will you do today?
:D When we start out on the DFW trail we do loads of "big stuff" that makes quite a difference to our situation. These include having our lightbulb moment, cutting up the credit cards and cancelling Sky and the gym.

Very old CCJs

My current search is clean, but there might be something older I don't know about as I had, via a temporary UK address, a "trace this person" (me!) letter from a collection agency. Any debts would be around 8/9 years old: unless CCJs were issued these would be…
