Hi everyone
After settling a debt how long does it take to show it as having been settled on your credit report? I heard there are certain dates that company's update them and apparently 27th of each month is one of them?!
Thanks in advance.

If a debt is settled, it should take no more than 2 months. The company may notify the CRA that the debt has been paid at the end of the month, then the CRA may update their system at the end of the month.
Any more than this and i'd make phonecalls.After falling off the gambling wagon (twice): £33,600 (24,000+ 9,600) - Original CC Debt: £7,885.91

Thank you - I thought it would take a lot longer.0
