Credit report Help!!

Hi im trying to get myself out of some old debt, the thing that scared me into doing so was having a credit check done from a prospective employer, however i had a look at my credit report and none of my old outstanding debt is there, the only trace of it is in the linked addresses part, just wondering what this means?? as im new to this does it mean they have been removed from my credit file, as far as i know whatever they were hav been sold on to third party collection companies?? any help would be brilliant??

How old was the debt, if it was over 6 years ago (5 in Scotland)
it will have dropped off your credit file.

i think it was either just over or just under 5 years, do creditors see a different report to what i see?

Maybe need to check your details on your debts (correct dates)

They see the same report as you.
