As per the title, Bankrupt in August 2019, Discharged in August 2020 Never heard from receiver or anyone from the original conversation.
All the balances and money owed was put in the BR form. However on my credit file it still shows open and defaulted. Is this normal or do I need to do something my end? I read the clearing up the credit file post however wasn't that clear to me if that is what I should be doing or not.
Many Thanks
