    Most lenders allow a bit of leeway before registering late payments so if your payment was only three days late I'd be a little surprised if it is registered as late.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the replies,
    I've checked my credit file today, with equifax and callcredit and they both show it as a late payment, And i think ybs use equifax. I called the cc company today and they said they would change it to a query rather than a late payment.....
    Mortgage appointment tomorrow....

    I did ask them to remove it, but no joy.

    Is the query ok to have on file or is it still a negative ?

    thanks

    My guide says all three CRAs, but that may be the difference between YBS, Chelsea, N&P and Accord.

    Thanks, I got the equifax from ybs website where it explains the application process, it says "we use equifax"

    Could well be. The other members of the group may use the other CRAs from historic agreements.
