How a default affects your credit score. Once a late payment goes past 120 days it is considered to be in default. A default not only causes a further drop in your credit score, but it also signals the creditor that itâs time to send your account to a collections agency.
This 'Default' will show up on your credit file and this is bad news because it ranks right up there with a County Court Judgment (CCJ). People often assume that a CCJ is the worst entry on a credit file (apart obviously from bankruptcy) but in reality most lenders view CCJs and Defaults as one and the same.
