    Highly unlikely.

    The default might have been possible on its own, depending on the date of registration, size, amount of deposit etc.

    However, the DMP will make this a non-starter.

    Focus on clearing the DMP as quickly as possible. Some people view a DMP as an interest free loan. That it may be. However as long as you remain in the DMP it will affect your ability to obtain credit.
