    You have a four year old default?

    Is that the only blemish?

    What was the default for and the amount involved?

    Vodafone, £151.

    That was the only problem that I have had -- Otherwise I've got a phone contract that I am currently paying off each month on time, plus I've had an iPad out in April that I paid off in June. (barclays finance)

    It was the advice of the mortgage adviser... He tried Halifax, Natwest, RBS they all declined me..

    Doesn't sound like vodaphone is the only problem then.

    What has your broker said about moving away from KMC at the end of the product term?

    I'm not 100% sure, but checking my file it is the only default reported.

    I've not asked yet, but I hope that I can move! :(

    I think it's the search history, as last month we took out sofa's from DFS and they serached me three times *hard searches* as people call it..

    There is more to this than the four year old default and the recent DFS searches.

    literally, that's the only thing on my credit report..

    bar from the default I had removed as it was false put on me... I've just put a dispute on equifax also as it still showed...
