hi jayne
your credit file may show you are in a payment arrangement with your creditor(s) so effectively the answer is yes.

Mine showed up as a 'Special arrangement' so it wouldn't take much to put two and two together.

It's a bit hit and miss, and tends to show more if the account is actually defaulted.

As stated previously the debt management plan itself will not show up. Starting a debt management plan is not in itself a credit "event" to be recorded (like a default notice, CCJ or an IVA would be for example).

It will typically result in your credit file showing late payments, missed payments, default notices and "arrangements" on the individual lines of credit.

Mine did all show up as late payments as well, no defaults though.
