Help with Credit Clean Up

Hi, Can somebody please help me?
My credit files have arrived and I am starting to go through them, but my records dont look like the sample records on the Credit Clean Up thread and I cant see how the information relates to what I have in mine. I'm all confused :huh:

lets say you owed lloyds £10000 when you went br.
your credit file should show that lloyds is owed £0 or says settled.
You should not have any outstanding debts, all should say £0 / settled / satisfactory from the date you went br0 -
Okay, I am slightly dim
If I give an example, on mine it says this;
Current- £+0
Default- £783
start- 15/07/2008
Default- 10/2009
End- 31/10/2009
Supplementary Flag- Partial
BR in Feb 10 and discharged Jul 10
So would this be correct on my file?0 -
That one is OK.
Default date is on or before your BR date = correct.
Partial settlement flag = correct/acceptableFree/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB

also it says "current £0" which i believe is what your after as well :T0

Thanks for your help.
Does the record have to have settled/ partial settled on. I have quite a few that say current balance £0 will that be enough?
So the ones that are wrong will be the ones that have a current balance?
Also I have a lot of searches from a "Mackenzie Hall- Kilmarnock" for "Trace" dating back to 2010, will these drop off my file or do I need to ask for them to be taken off?
Sorry for being a pain0 -
:eek: I have just looked up Santander for an address and there is loads! How do you know which one to write to?
Also quite ironic,is that 2 of the records wrong on my file are the only 2 companies I have credit with now, not sure how that works0
