when to apply for catalogues / vanquis

Hi
My husband and I were discharged from bankruptcy June last year, and are working on clearing up our credit file. I want to apply for a catalogue account, and my husband for a Vanquis card - not for more debt but to rebuild a credit history. On our credit histories all our debts show as satisifed except our mortgage ( defaulted) and a CCJ from MBNA chasing a credity card. Do I need to get these sorted before applying?
I am on letter number THREE to C&G and MBNA
Thanks

I think if you are on letter number 3, you need to report them now to the authorities quoted in the clean up sticky. I doubt they will act if they haven't to letters number one and two.
Some people have managed to get a Vanquis as your stage, some haven't, so impossible to say whether you would be approved or declined really."Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them." Dalai Lama0
