- Whether defaults are satisfied
- Total amount across all defaults
- Whether missed payments occurred before or after the defaults
- Clean credit behaviour since the defaults
❓ Common Questions
Do missed payments matter if I already have defaults?
Missed payments that predated the defaults are generally seen as part of the same episode. Missed payments after the defaults were registered are viewed more seriously.
What is the difference between a missed payment and a default?
A missed payment is a single unpaid instalment. A default occurs when a lender formally closes an account usually after 3-6 consecutive missed payments.
