Does anyone know when a default is removed from your credit report?

It is not very likely you will be offered a loan, at least by the mainstream lenders. If you manage to get a loan it will probably be an adverse credit lender, that will charge a higher APR (because you are now seen as a higher risk borrower).I came into this world with nothing and I'm gonna leave with nothing.0
