Car on Hp, what happens when doing a DRO?
If somebody has a car on HP, what is the procedure when applying for a DRO? Do you have to give the car back first, then put the rest of the debt down, or should you keep the car during the application, and then give the car back after it has gone through and you hear back from them?

DRO - 6 years...
Hi all, In March 2018 it'll be 6 years since my DRO and I am expecting it to fall off my credit record. What will happen? Will my credit rating suddenly shoot up (currently 529/999) once it drops off, or will it remain that low and gradually build up?
