It is fairly normal practice. It is unfair and there seems nothing can be done about it.

 

However, complain to the CRA and see what they have to say.

However, I can tell you that the CRAs are out of control.

maybe won't work with barclays as oc, but lowell have done this to me twice with an egg and cahoot account. i contacted the cra and asked for the oc defaults to be removed. this they did. my reasoning was that if i kept the lowell ones then i felt i was in a better bargaining position to have the defaults removed as part of a settlement offer. through pressure (and threats of legal action) lowell have since removed the egg default without receiving any more cash from me, and i am working on the cahoot one in a similar vein. the ico is also investigating, so that should add leverage.

 

Forgot to say: when challenging a default through the cra, lowell had the audacity to reply by telling the cra to tell me to contact the oc as the oc had placed the default. **** of the earth!
