Credit File Help

Hi all,
Im in the process of trying to clean up my partners credit file after she got herself in debt many moons ago.
One of her credit files with Lloyds shows that she missed three consecutive payments on a loan which is correct. She contacted Lloyds after realising that a direct debit wasn't set up after cancelling an old one. They increased her payments to cover the missed payments. When her next payments goes through on time should her credit file still show as three payments late or should it show as a 0 to show that the next payment was on time ?
I hope that makes sense.
Cheers,
Mark
