    As long as it's a valid credit search, I don't think you can. I believe it drops off your file after 12 months.

    Debt now (15/06/07) - £83,908.47 (still :eek: but every little helps!)

    I applied for a contract with O2 a while back and there were a few problems with the application so I had to re-apply. This happened a couple of times so I'm worried now
