Hi Pedy yip this is correct it will take a while for the credit file to show them has settled or satisfied, Im using Clearscore and Noddle and Totalmoney to keep track of my accounts,all but one are settled, I gave some of the stragglers a copy of my form 5 to try and speed up the settlement and that helped
cheers

Cheers, so even during the full td they will mark default on file. Also been receiving default letters in mail from santander every 6 months

Hi Pedy, I would let the guys who are dealing with the trust deed know about the debt letters and they will contact Santander, I got debt letters from various and was told to ignore them as they are covered by your TD, its not an easy process as it seems things don't follow in the correct order but eventually you will see things fall off your credit report but it does take a long time

Thanks!

Hi Pedy.

Creditors can mark accounts as being "late payment" or "default" status during a trust deed as far as I know - these both seem to be an accurate update on the status of the account.

This article might be useful with regard to default notices after you've been discharged from your trust deed:

They should be marked as being satisfied or partially satisfied. The balances should be set to zero.

The reality is however that some creditors don't do this efficiently, so you may have to give them a nudge (or a firm shove) if you want your credit file to be properly updated.

Thanks tda, appreciate reply. Will have a read of article
