Hi,I assume you have a DRO, is that right ? from what i can grasp from your post, Lowell have already decided to write the debt off, but are still reporting it to the credit reference agencies, that is normal, once your DRO ends, then is the time to do a credit file clean up, all accounts should then show as settled, with a zero balance. The whole entry will vanish 6 years from the start date of your DRO.They can, and sometimes do sell on debts thet are subject to a DRO, as these arrangements do occasionally fail, if your circumstances change for example, but as long as you successfully complete your DRO, then your debts will be written off, and you will have full legal protection from your creditors, so you won`t have to pay them.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free wannabe, Credit file and ratings, and Bankruptcy and living with it boards.

That's correct sourcrates I had a dro in November last year lowell not got added as I did have a problem on cra it showed like 22k debt i did get touch with lowell who had mainly bought most or all of my debt and said as good will gesture said I don't owe it no more I had to send prove of the lowell letters to stepchange who did my dro so lowell debt was like 7 or 8k drop from 22k then rest of the debts got added to dro which was I think 14or 15k I take it lowell won't sell those debts they wrote off for me ye they will still report the debt it just shows as a default sorry for long message I'm dyslexic0
