    D'oh! Having re-read it you were indeed. Perhaps I'm not reading properly tonight... :cool:

    Lol that's ok, after an extremely stressful day I have now got the joy of a £1600 bonus coming through unexpectedly, so having chugged down 2 stellas rather quickly, it could easily be me! ;)

    as your defaults are 5 years old then try for the Barclaycard Initial
    It's a health benefit ...

    Hi guys,

    I have 2 CCj's falling off in July and Sept this year but will have a 3 year old satisfied default fro £81 remaining, by that time ill have about 18 months of nice green 00000's from cap1 and t-mobile, and still have 36 nice green 00000's from my barclays £1500 overdraft

    any suggestions as to what next for me after the CCJ's are off...i dont see the point in applying for anything before they are off

    Trajal you seem to have experience with removing defaults, iv asked for help with this but had no responses, would really appreciate your thoughts and experience on this one....and anyone else for that matter
    2 CCJ's coming off in July and September 2011:j
    1 Satisfied Default for a measly £81:mad:
    £200 Capital One, £1500 Barclays Overdraft, T-Mobile Contract:cool:
