Hi all thanks for reading
I am a bit confused tbh. I have today got my checkmyfile report (covers all 3 agencies it states) and I can't find some of my biggest debts (a few cc cards a barclays loan and barclays o/d all of which I have paid a nominal sum per month to for what seems like forever)
The barclays debts are with there internal dept (or were a year or so ago) the credit cards are still with the lender (in the main a few with external companies)
The rest of them are correct and showing the right information. Is there somewhere else I should be looking for these??
Thanks again

Look at your CRA files directly. Checkmyfile has never been any good for properly reviewing your credit history.0

I thought it was strange.
On a different note does anybody have a contact number for barclays recovery unit? or whatever its called now? i have tried google to no avail
thanks again0 -
How long have you being paying this nominal sum? If more than 6 years the accounts have probably dropped off your credit reports.

Hi again

appreciate any help0 -
6 years from default date, they will drop off your file, no confusion really, have you had any disputes with any of the accounts that would warrent the CRA temporarily hiding them from your file ?If not, all is well and good.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.
