    In my case, the duplicate entries were NOT due to the defaults being sold, they were due to my previous address being on my credit file twice, therefore when they did the search, it should everything for that address twice (if that makes sense). Therefore, what they have done is removed the 2nd entry of the address so now it will only show the defaults once.

    That makes sense mate, therefore you are right in that the only people that will correct these mistakes (they are classed as mistakes) is the CRA's - not the lender or the DCA.

    Point is, you got it sorted which is the main thing here :D:D:D

    All is good!

    I made the comment regarding the CRA's as Experians usuall approach is to say the creditor has informed us that the information is correct. Please contact them direct.

    You must have got an helpful advisor which beleive me is rare when it comes to them!

    I agree with this sentiment :D:D

    I usually deal direct with Lee Hancock from Directors Office who is good at sorting out 50 odd incorrect defaults etc :eek: :rotfl: :rotfl:
