UK: If you pay off your credit card how long until it clears on your credit report?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

The account information will stay there for 6 years, but most credit card companies update credit reference agencies once a month with the account balance, so it should show as zero balance pretty soon after clearing it.

• I think you can contact them after youv'e pid the debt and ask them to remove it if it's causing you to be held back from other thing's like eg getting a mortgage or getting credit other than that it stay's on for 6 year's
• It will stay on your credit report for 6 years but it will show as satisfied & no activity from date you cleared card.
• 28 days...but you may have to amend this manually on the report
