Settled Accounts updates

I need to understand why certain settled accounts of mine that was recently settled have been updated or could be updated but 3 of my accounts that have also been settled still reflects as in arrears. Why must we wait for these to be updated only after a certain time whereas new credit is updated immediately? I have the paid up letters and proof of payments for all the accounts that were settled so why will the Bureau not update all?

I do not think Experian is understanding what I am asking: I stated very clearly that my accounts that were in arrears were all settled at the same time which was 20/02/2026. These accounts were updated accordingly with the exception of 3 accounts that is currently still reflecting as in arrears. These accounts were all settled less than 60 days but only 3 accounts could not be updated?
