    i got my reports, but im really not sure!

    had letters from debt collecters a few times in the past 5 years, but paid them all right away so not sure if they are defaults??

    my credit report mentions no defaults anyway :S:S confused.com!!


    cant get a credit card from any high street bank or that though.... :(
