Barclaycard and my file.

Hi Guys,
I had an iva which ran its course of 5 years and finished in August 2005.I then wait another year and August 2006 the iva and all the debts within it dropped off my file.

GREAT ,well thats what i was thinking until i get my file through and see that barclaycard are still showing as satisfied in 2005.This means it will stay on my file for another 5 / 6 years.

I wrote to equifax who agrred with me that this should have dissappeared with the iva ,here is their reply :

"Dear Trevor

Re - Barclaycard

We wish to advise you that you contact your lenders in question and send them a copy of their IVA certificate of completion, asking for the account to be marked as satisfied and the end date of the account to reflect the date of the IVA. This will expedite the dispute with each of the clients and we ensure that the account will drop off the file at the same time as the IVA.

Thank you for your recent correspondence.

I hope this is of assistance.

Regards

Equifax Customer Care Team "
Onwards and Upwards ;)
