  • okay, looks like i sjould pay this debt off then? As such, can they register a default on my file if i agree a payment plan and stick to it as they suggest. My argument is if i am willing to pay back a 5 year old debt why should I be punished with defaults on my credit file?

    Yes you should pay. they wont register a default as long as you stick with the payment plan.

    If it has gone to a DCA I'd be surprised if you didn't already have a default listed. Have you applied for a (free trial) copy of your credit report to see?
