Mortgage with default

Hi me and my oh have had a offer accepted on a property. We have had a mip accepted by Rbs but before we went to the full application process we both ordered copies of our credit file. Hers is fine but mine had a 5 year old default for £130 (an old student overdraft) which I paid once I realised, although it still isn’t updated on my file. I was just wondering how in-depth the initial check are am I likely to be rejected. My report shows nothing adverse for 60 months.
Thanks in advance for any insight

    No, you are not likely to be rejected.

    Default on a student account?

    Not RBS nor NatWest?
