vodafone issue

In december i went onto a debt management plan with cccs now when i was trying too get this sorted i got a copy of my file for a couple of quid from equifax. All my debts i was able too find letters etc of who was dealing with them bar 1 ie Vodafone. They are a nightmare

I have a debt on my credit file from Vodafone for 700pounds for a phone and ipad i had around 4 year ago, i got made redundant in the past usual irresponsible story on my part but the debt didnt get paid.

I am currently still trying too sort the matter and i am at a loss what further i can do. The debt was with a company fredriksson international i found a letter ages for them and i called them in january and they said the debt had gone back too Vodafone. I found an old phone bill and rang vodafone and they said the account was shut and they couldnt find it but it still shows on my credit file. Vodafone said they were gunna send me a letter saying it was closed but never did. I didnt hold faith in there egyptian call centre

Can anyone give any advice? The debt still shows on my credit file as in default

  • Shouldn't CCCS be dealing with this on your behalf or did you not mention it to them when setting the debt management plan?
  • its not factored into my debt management as we cant find whose handling it

    fredriksson arent
    vodafone are as much use as a chocolate fire guard

    the last contact i had with vodafone the offshore advisor said they would send me a letter and update my credit file as they couldnt find me and the account

    the phone number i did have has being reassigned too a different customer

    and the account number i did have find they couldnt find anything

    Well if Vodafone can't find you on their systems then ask them to remove the item from your credit file.
    They can't have it both ways.
