Hi All,
Recently took a deal online and thought better of it so it's all been returned, refunded and closed down.
Will the account appear on my credit file or will will it just be the initial search?
Many thanks

It will show as being opened then closed.
It will come off your history 6 years from close date.0 -

Its good you had second thoughts about it and the phone has been received by the seller.0 -
It should only be the search that shows. A credit agreement closed within the statutory cooling off period is treated as if it was never opened so should not be shown.0

I was a tad worried about the process but it all went smoothly!It should only be the search that shows. A credit agreement closed within the statutory cooling off period is treated as if it was never opened so should not be shown.
I thought that was the case - thanks for your help.
