    Stressdout 75,

    If you mean you are discharged early or after a year then your file will show this but bankrutcy stays on your credit file for 6 years from the inception date.

    If it has been 6 years then most bar equifax update at midnight, equifax end of the month.

    HTH

    You don't need to pay for the premium services either, you can order your Statutory Reports for just £2 each.

    If you have just been discharged, wait a couple of months or so and then have a look at the 'Clean Up' sticky thread.
