In spring clean mode!
I have a few debts this I settled at a reduced rate. These are no longer on my credit file. How long on average do people keep these letters? I’m happy getting rid of the associated bumpf, just worry in case I can’t prove it’s settled

Why not just scan it and put it in your cloud storage in case it's ever needed later.

I know the old rule for bank statements was 6 years, think I got that from my parents adviceChristians Against Poverty solved my debt problem, when all other debt charities failed. Give them a call !! ( You don't have to be a Christian ! )

Yes I would say 6 years.
If anyone tries anything after longer than that then it's statute barred anyway0 -
Just a dump question, what If I got no scanner, can I just make a photo, will it count?
