Hi Everyone,
I had a CCJ in 2018 which I only found out about recently (2020) after doing a credit check. Turns out all the letters were sent to my old address. I have already paid off the debt thinking that it would take away the CCJ however I've now realised that it will stay on my record for 6 years unless I get it set aside.
Long story short I've contacted the claimant's solicitors (gladstones solicitors) and asked them to see if the claimant would be happy to have the CCJ set aside. Thankfully they're happy to go ahead and I've now received this Consent Order from gladstones (after paying a £100 fee) asking me to sign it and sent it back.
Could I get some advice whether this Consent Order looks good and the chances of the judge accepting it?

I also notice a spelling mistake on section iv (bought instead of brought), would this cause issues?
Would love to get some advice on the above. Many thanks in advance.
