    Last fill payment: n/a
    Arrangement: DMP till May 2018
    Status: Default 31/10/2018

    August - loan interest has been paid off the OD, balance is now £799


    2020
    January - Letter received from NatWest to say the collection agent they are now using is Zinc as their previous ones (I assume AIC) couldn't come to a suitable arrangement. I have been sent the same letter for all my 7 accounts! None are active, most were savings accounts and only 3 are on my credit report.
    July - received letter to say their collection agents haven't been able to come to a suitable arrangement so my details have been passed to Moorcroft


    2021
    October - checking credit report I see this account is closed and satisfied 21st July 2021
    December - Marked as default/ended on credit report with a balance of £0. Has this been sold on?
    As above: Marked as defuault/ended on credit report with a balance of £0. Has this been sold on?

      I don't remember sending one I haven't heard anything since that Moorcroft letter in 2020.

      • ".. You just have to wait and see BUT always record (for your benefit) changes to Accounts/Debts that date 21st July 2021 for instance might become a crucial evidence if other dates for closure and or Assignment are later revealed! .."
        Is this the same whose status changed on 21st July 2021?
        So the status has been updated (presumably by Nat West) to default/ended?

        I surmise that nobody has written to you over this! You are simply monitoring your Credit Report! So 5 months without any communication is good news!
        Again make a record of this latest change and its date!

        On Dates it looks as if you are close to Statute Bar around Est. June 2022 ( May 2018 + ( 6 years plus 1 month)) what 7-8 months!!
        That's not long and time to sit on your hands DO nothing at this stage. Certainly do not write, phone!!

        Wait and see!!

          I may have looked at different credit reports for July & December I don't remember.

            Whoops! Sorry YES!
            Doesn't look as if they issued a Default Notice before closing the A/c!

            The Notice of Arrears is a different animal!
            "..
            April - closing of accounts letter, payment proposal form attached, ignored
            June - Closing of OD facility letter
            June - Notice of arrears in compliance with CCA 1974
            June - You have fail to comply letter received
            .."


            You can normally look back at reports with CRA's. But its curious this what 4-5 month delay and nothing in the Post!
            Doesn't change the recommendation Wait; Do Nothing; Make Notes for your own records!

              • SafetyNet Credit which I haven't listed before have reported my account as delinquent. Last payment was September 2019, is it 7 years from October 2019 that it will be removed from my credit file?

                Been looking at my default removal countdowns and soon to be under 2 year for two of them and 3 years for others

                • 6 years & 1 month eng/wales but 5 years scotland, remember scots get the better toss of the coin!

                  After six years, the defaulted debt will be removed from your credit file, even if you haven't finished paying it off.

                    I don't have a default date just delinquent being reported every month. CAG said those accounts go after 7 years, I just wanted to check.

                    • Cabot/BPO/Aqua
                      Opened: 03 Sept 2014
                      Type: Credit card
                      Current Balance: £175
                      Last payment: £5.00 | June 2022
                      Last full payment: 2019
                      Arrangement: Not paying
                      Status: Defaulted December 2019
                      2022

                      June Letter from BPO to say that Cabot has asked them to contact me about a settlement offer. A discount of £44.85 (what a joke).
                      Are BPO collecting for Cabot or something? Cabot have another account of mine worth £630 but it hasn't been sent to BPO. I'm not going to do anything, I was paying each £5 a month but have stopped this month to wait on getting very low F&F offers down the line.

                        Type: Payday Loan
                        Current Balance: £771.80

                        Yes so I didn't learn from my mistakes at this point I was paying them £1 to get them off my back. Each month I'd pay Conexus then receive an email from UB saying I wasn't paying. I then decided to stop paying all together.

                        I still have access to the UB site and have requested A Statement Of My Account (SOMA) to get more details. I can request a SAR from the site if I want to.

                        2021

                        October - I got documents back from a CCA request sent 01/10/2021. I don't see anything from a request in 2020, if I even sent it. I think I sent the 2021 request due to getting 'doorstep' letters. Since then I have been getting 'contactus' emails and text message, along with 'doorstep' threats. I've never had anyone come to the door. I've just been ignoring them. It's not on my report
