Going back to the 2007 guidance, it makes a specific reference to unresolved disputes and goes on to say that if there is a genuine, reasonable and unresolved dispute then the ICO is likely to find that personal data has been processed unfairly if a default has been filed. It also says that a default reported in that way may also be inadequate for the purpose of credit referencing because it does not provide any meaningful information about the creditworthiness of the customer. This section has been removed in subsequent revisions of the guidance without any understanding as to why but should nonetheless be persuasive as it appears to confirm my views that the data recorded is not accurate and/or misleading and ought to be applicable in circumstances relating to charges or fees.
