    Markers will stay on your account for 6 years and then drop off automatically. They won't be removed early.
  • Hello,

    After 6 months i think it stops being a negative im sure.

    Thanks

    That's up to each lender. Nothing to do with Experian - they just report it.

    Only you and Experian know about this score - no one else will see nor be told about it.....it's irrelevant to any lender

    It will drop off in 6 yrs as said before
    is there any way i can have this manualy done quicker

    no, it cannot be removed early, quicker or faster - it is factual information that stays there for the 6 yrs

    What are you looking to do?
    Are you planning on applying for some form of credit? Mortgage, credit card or loan?

    As time passes it will impact you less and less.

    Each default, marker etc is open for each lender to decide if it is an issue for them, some may not find it a problem.

    If it's a recent 1 then maybe it will be a problem.

    Your score on the other hand isn't seen by lenders so don't focus to much on it.
