Posted - 19 July 2015 : 20:57:43 Hi all, my wife and I filed for BR in Nov10, we have both just signed up to "check my file". on looking at my wife's file it is still showing 2 credit card accounts still open both with a balance showing in debt, what is worrying us is that these CC were both included in the bankruptcy, what is going on? have they been cleared with the BR?

Posted - 20 July 2015 : 09:01:53 They should still remove any defaults back to the date of the BR - I assume that the BR is not showing on either of your records?

Posted - 20 July 2015 : 08:30:20 Meant to say - have you checked with all three credit reference agencies? Noddle is free but Experian and Equifax are paid for but you can get a free 30 day trial.
With mine, only Equifax is showing a bad reference for RBS which I shall be complaining about.

Posted - 20 July 2015 : 08:07:55 Hi,
All of your unsecured debts will have been taken into the BR.
If you printed off a copy of your discharge then send a copy of this to the data controller for the creditors concerned and tell them to remove any defaults back to the date of the BR. They should do this within 28 days.
