Section 75 and Q Markers on credit file

is it normal for credit card provider to put a 'Q' marker on credit files when you make a claim under section 75 of the consumer credit act
How long do they stay on?  Can you get them removed? Do they impact your credit score and do other lenders see these markers as adverse?

    The Q stands for query and will remain for as long as the query is outstanding. 

    It’s unlikely that lenders will take much notice of it for scoring purposes.
