[Marly]

ok thank you that's a relief then, started to worry it would look like I had made some payments, I'm not sure what I have done with the letters as I have had so many letters

[Roger]

will the credits Tesco made look like I have made a payment to the account?

No Tesco's own records show that they themselves made these payments.
Make sure you keep all the paper work filed away.

Debt 2- I originally thought this had been sold to Cabot as it is showing on my credit file as Cabot and closed with Tesco, Now I have no idea as the letter is not a notice of assignment.

• Status- Default- May 2012

No contact with Halifax since 2012, was a joint account, I asked Halifax to put a hold on the account as I knew ex was going to run the overdraft up. They had me jumping through hoops saying they couldn't as it was a joint account, wrote to them, called them and went into branch on numerous occasions. Ex ran overdraft up so I told Halifax its their problem as the refused to prevent it from happening. Not heard anything since 2012. Will this become SB in June 2018 or is it different for current accounts?

22nd January 2018 statement received from Halifax
6th March 2018 SAR from them shows dispute on account, and that they made the payments on account, there is no DN in there, I don't know now whether they ever issued one.
