Default Account Question

Hi Guys & Girls,
I'm after some help and advice please, I'm really struggling to understand a defaulted account on my credit file.
I recently checked my credit file as am in the process of applying for a mortgage, I noticed Lowell have put a default on my credit file...
I defaulted on an old T-Mobile account, this was over 6 years ago (no longer shows on my credit file) due to being young a stupid... Lowell purchased the debt and it is now fully paid with Lowell, however they have recorded a default on 23/10/2013 and every payment is also marked as default...
Is this normal? If not is there anything I can do about it at all as this is something that is going to impact my mortgage application.
Many Thanks!
