Are you urgent to move in? If they have just paid the CCJ, it will take time for the credit file to update. You say they have they received confirmation from the creditor that the debt has been satisfied. If the letting agent won't accept it as proof they may need a certificate of satisfaction from the court, and they would need to contact the court to apply for that.0

It's ridiculous to assume that an upfront payment makes a tenant a cannabis farmer. The upfront payment is to offer some security in the event that the tenant has a less than perfect financial history. It does not mean that the other referencing checks are not carried out.
I didn't suggest any such assumption. I just said that the LL should not be blinded by the offer of payment upfront. And references are of course absurdly easy to fake.No free lunch, and no free laptop
