Re: EGG Credit Card

I thought that if they listed it as Satisfied bearing in mind they took a 'commercial decision to write the debt off' because it was unenforceable then would it not show as Status - Satifactory?

where did you read this nonsense? Absolutely rubbish - not at all.

satisfied could mean lender A sold to lender B by way of assignment thus it is settled with them (as a business write off) but lender B will now own the rights and can register the account on the CRA's again with the balance re-appearing.

It could be that they've decided it's not worth pursuing.

It could be that they think you've 'gone away' and so written it off but not sold it

It could be anything but they will NEVER add a satisfied status because you tell them it's ue. Never. Nor will they admit to it ever being UE - never.

Re: BARCLAYS BANK Overdraft

This is another account which is listed on my Experian Credit Report as Status - Default and Balance - Satisfied. They accepted a F&F so shouldn't it now show as Status - Satifactory? Can you please advise? Thanks again!

No.

You had a debt - it got defaulted = status 'D'

You settled it so account is defaulted but satisfied/settled so it should stay as a default but have satisfied as you have satisfied the liability to the lender.

Its not satisfactory is it, as you breached the terms of the agreement and thus defaulted.

Re: StressHead's UE Diary

Sorry Niddy - I'm feeling a bit (very) stressed because my o/h keeps going on about me 'sorting my debt out' so that we can buy a house because until we've done this then we won't be getting married or having kids. I'm 31 this year and the clock must be ticking as marriage and babies is all I can think of. By the time we get round to buying a house (because of my debt situation) I'll probability have been through menopause! I'm trying to be jovial but very emotional at the moment.

Re: MARBLES Credit Card

MARBLES This isn't showing at all on my Experian Credit Report in any way shape or form - Is this correct?

You had EXACTLY the same letter as me from Lowells. On the rear of that letter (top left if i remember correctly - and I cant be arsed digging it out) it does say the information will be removed I believe.

Just make sure you keep that letter safe.

Hiya

Ok fair point, makes sense but no offence he needs to wait cos this added stress doesn't help and not being funny, if he loves you then he loves you - not because of material stuff like a house (rent!). As for no marriage/kids before a house - ermm, why? How old fashioned is that - you're 31, not 81 (unless religion affects it in which case sorry, I'm ignorant as I don't believe in religion)....

Point is, you're in no position to repay these debts and even if you do you will NOT get any lender go near you (certainly not a mortgage) until the defaults are gone so no matter what until 6 years from date of last default on your credit file, forget a mortgage.

I'm not being harsh, but you need to explain this to him that no matter what you do those defaults will remain. If you owe a grand and offered 10 grand to remove it the lender would say no.

That's what they're like at the moment and they aint changing so you have to live with it and he's pressurising you to repay these which will make not one iota of a difference then he needs to be told to back off. Seriously, you're only 31 FFS! I've just turned 40 this year and still go for 22 hours a day (usually more than that!).....

Point is, you're fine! Stop stressing, although that's your nickname still.....

But now that Opus (or progressive financial whatever) own the Marbles brand they COULD add the info again at any point they see fit mate as they are the owners.

I was under the impression that Lowell were the acount owners now (or were) - so didnt think Opus had any right to process data - unless the account was sold back to them.

Re: StressHead's UE Diary

Hi Niddy,
I sent you a copy of a CCA on 16th September and haven't heard back from you yet. Just wanted to make sure that you received it?
Thank you

Re: StressHead's UE Diary

Hiya

Ok I have read through this again and really can’t find enough fault to make it UE. That said I would deffo blag it right up to the point of them getting arsey then I’d look at a PPI reclaim, after all that will knock £10k off the balance being asked for.

But sadly it is enforceable, therefore I would blag it as things stand and respond with the following template --> Our Templates | Unenforceability Templates | CCA Query - Missing Prescribed Terms

Keep us updated.....
