How do defaults drop off?

Hi I have read that defaults drop off after 6 years so I thought it was registered once but I just checked my noodle file (free) :D and it shows a default each month how will it ever drop off? Confused :o

    What do you mean ?

    As soon as the 6 years is up they drop, might not be instant though.

    Maybe ive not answered your question.
  • Hi I wondered because it wasmarked next to each month it would be 6 years from the end? I thought it would be one d on account not d next to each month. Is this just saying still in default payments and it just takes the date it first defaulted into account?

    The D every month is just a status update on the original default, not a new default. The default and all details of the account will still be removed 6 years from the original default.
