  • Default advice needed please

    Hi to all of you,first of all can I say how good this site is,so much info and advice. Back to my problem.
    i have just found out that I have a default on my file, it was filed by either the Halifax BAnk or wescot DRA, the details are as follows , left my other half in 2008, was told by her that she'd closed our joint account,but in fact I have just found out that she only removed her name,and consequently the account went overdrawn by £33, now there is a balance of -£347 and wescot want it paying.
    Halifax sold debt to wescot on 13/12/2011, date of default on my credit file is 16/12/2011. I have no recollection of receiving any paperwork relating to this,as my ex didn't even know where I was living as to pass on any address to anyone.

    How would I proceed with trying to get this default removed ? Any suggestions would be appreciated

    Hi and welcome.

    Have you spoken with Halifax since finding out about this. I recently had a similar situation with Nationwide and then found a £600 debt had built up on the account via my credit file - they removed everything. (Actually I was extremely suprised that they did so easily but they could see it was at zero when contact was made to close the account and they had failed in closing it then applied charge on charge)

    Worth asking before getting into protracted letter writing with Wescot.
