Nationwide debts cleared but not updated

Hi

I cleared my debt to Nationwide (via their debt collector) on the last day of December 2010. Experian is still showing the amount as outstanding debt. I am very frustrated because the lender has their money yet they take their time in passing on the info to the credit reference agencies.

I feel that all the effort to clear the debt and start 2011 with a clean state was pointless, i'm still technically in debt because it's the credit agencies who say so.

    Sometimes it just takes a wee while for the credit ref agencies to be fed the updated data.
    Sure it will show up soon.
