Satisfied defaulted debt - how long to show up?

I had a defaulted debt that I had forgotten about until I saw it on my credit report. I satisfied the debt on 17th September but this still hasn't shown up on any of my credit reports. How long should I wait until I start to worry about this?

  • It will be updated on your creditors next reporting cycle. (I believe creditors update monthly).

    If you check your live statutory 'snapshot' credit files, then it may already be updated.
    I work within the voluntary sector, supporting vulnerable people to rebuild their lives.

    I love my job
