Credit Reference File after completed IVA - Defaults?

Hello there,

I'm starting to clean up my credit reference file after completing an IVA early about a year ago.

I've signed up to CreditExpert.co.uk, as I never could understand the £3 reports they send.

Could someone please advise me on the following, as the website is not really clear enough for daft old me:

My Credit Report contains an Outstanding Public Record in the Public Information Section.
It lists my IVA & the date (27/04/2010)
Because the IVA was completed, should it stay as Outstanding or does this need to be corrected?

Also, there are a number of entries in the Account Information section.
They are all from the IVA.
They are listed as "Default" and have a balance on them.

Now that the IVA is finished, should these not be now set to Balance: settled & Satisfactory?
The other lenders in my IVA have done this.

I've sent messages to Experian, but all advice would be appreciated.
