HI all
Just after a bit of advice please.
Long story short: I have 4 defaults on my credit file after entering into a DMP so fully expected.
2 of these are credit cards
2 are personal loans originally Halifax. These loan accounts were managed by Wescott initially, then sold to Intrim finance, now sold to Link. My concern is that all three are showing on my credit file showing as open and it looks like I actually owe millions of pounds lol.
All defaults will be at 6 years this October coming so I am assuming they will drop off. (not that i'm looking for credit ever again)
My question is will the companies that do not own these accounts be removed from my file also?
Thanks in advance
