I just got off the phone with Barclays. I mentioned that I have heard that in a DMP, the defaults stay in your Credit reference for 6 years after the last payment.

But they have now said it is 6 years from the day your account is closed/reduced payment starts.

I thought it was only in an iva that the defaults stop been entered into your account 6 years from tne date of the 1st payment.

This is really weird.

Not heard that one - Storm will be able to comment better if he is around. I do not think that the start of a DMP has any bearing on the length of time references stay on the credit files.
