I am a victim of identity- theft, I am writing to request that you block all accounts disputed as fraudulent on my credit reports with XXXX , XXXX , and XXXX. This information does not relate to any transactions I have made. I did not give anyone authorization or consent to use my personal information. I hereby exercise my legal rights enacted by Congress and The Federal Trade Commission, which explicitly states when a victim of identity-theft dispute a fraudulent account on his/her credit report it shall be honored by all credit bureaus and all fraudulent information should be blocked within 4 days and proper notification shall be given to all data furnishers pursuant to section 605b of The Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act. Failure to comply shall lead to complaints being filed with The XXXX XXXX XXXX, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and Attorney General stating your companys unlawful collection practices, misrepresentation of creditworthiness, defamation of character, and noncompliance to abide by laws enacted by Congress to protect victims of identity-theft who's credit been impacted by acts of fraud. Because I know my rights under THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT, CONSUMER CREDIT PROTECTION ACT ( CCPA ), and FAIR and ACCURATE CREDIT TRANSACTION ACT of 2003 ( FACTA ). I will be taking action. I also know my rights under this paragraph of Section 312 of the FACTA LAW : SEC.312. Procedures to enhance the accuracy and integrity of information furnished to consumer reporting agencies. ( b ) duty of furnishers to provide accurate information. -- Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) of THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) is amended ( 1 ) in subparagraph ( A ), by striking " knows or consciously avoids knowing the information is inaccurate '' and inserting " knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate '', and ( 2 ) by adding at the end of the following : ( D ) DEFINITION -- For purposes of subparagraph ( A ), the term 'reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate ' means having specific knowledge, other than solely allegations by the consumer, that would cause a reasonable person to have substantial doubts about the accuracy of information. Policy states. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C 1681 ), Procedure In Case of Disputed Accuracy. ( a ) Reinvestigation ( 1 ) Reinvestigation ( a ) In general. Subject to Subsection ( f ), if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a consumers file at a consumer agency is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the agency directly, or indirectly through a reseller, of such dispute, free of charge, conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the current status of the disputed information, or delete the item from the file in accordance with paragraph ( 5 ), before the end of the 30-day period beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute from the consumer or reseller. Therefore, my position is being clearly stated, these accounts do not belong to me, meaning that you are reporting inaccurate account information within my credit file. The fact that these are inaccurate account information means that you, this credit-reporting agency, are reporting incorrect accounts. Finally, you are reporting the INQUIRIES that are the result of the same type of fraudulent activities. It must be noted that I did not apply for credit accounts with the below-listed companies and creditors, some of these are the result of attempts to open accounts, but the companies did not approve the accounts. Therefore, these inquiries must be deleted from within my credit file. You can not delete the fraudulently opened accounts without also deleting the fraudulent inquiries. It should be noted that an inquiry that was not made by me is not a factual record, just as a fraudulently opened account is not a factual record and not referred to the creditor to be disputed directly with them. The credit reporting agencies have attempted to address an inquiry as a factual record of file access, but if it was done through fraudulent means, it is not a factual record. As a consumer, I should not be required to dispute each fraudulent inquiry directly with each company. These inquiries are the result of fraudulent activity and therefore, inaccurate in which the credit reporting agencies or the creditors can not verify, meaning that these inquiries are unverifiable information and must be deleted from my credit files. 1. Jefferson Capital System bal. {$35000.00} I am well aware of my rights as a consumer. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that you, the credit-reporting agency report accurate and/or correct account information within my credit file. My credit issues are very specific, these accounts and/or items do not belong to me. This means that you are reporting incorrect account information within my credit report. It is this in mind that I request that these listed accounts and items be Blocked and Deleted. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA, Section 1681c ( 2 ) Block of information resulting from identity theft. 1.Block. Except as otherwise provided in this section, a consumer reporting shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than four ( 4 ) business days after the date receipt by such agency of 1.

I am also entitled to receive a free copy of my credit report, so I am requesting a free credit report and that all of these accounts, public records items, and inquiries be permanently blocked and deleted.

During the months of XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX, my wife and I disputed by mail and contacted by phone with recordings Jefferson Capital LLC., XXXX XXXX , and XXXX XXXX XXXX , and the three credit bureaus. We submitted the claim disputing the adverse account that was reported to the credit bureaus on both of our credit reports. What was once a charge off on both of our credit reports became an open collection account. This was done after an inquiry was made, without notification, and investigation of a claim. What my wife and I both inquired, in two different disputes and multiple phone calls on the following dates : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX,XX/XX/XXXX,XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX, was the validity of Jefferson Capital 's claims. We requested during conference calls, an itemized document that furnished a full account summary and itemized calculations of the alleged debt. We requested the company provide, the dates and times used in the attempt to make payment arrangements, or alert us that a debt was owed of {$100000.00}. Before we had any knowledge of Jefferson Capital on our credit reports I, the husband, was pre-approved for a home loan. Two months passed as I waited for my house to sell. It was during this time when I submitted for my annual credit report and noticed Jefferson Capital was listed as a negative account and made my first dispute. When the home finally sold, three months had gone by and I had to re-score to pre-approve for the home. It was then that our lender said there was a dispute on my credit report and we could not be approved with an open dispute. XX/XX/XXXX, Agent XXXX XXXX explained my wife and I that she could not identify or locate any account with my nor my wife 's social security number, maiden name, married name, address, nor phone numbers. Before Dispute Was Made 1. Jefferson Capital 's agents reported, " The alleged account could n't be identified or located using neither my nor my wife 's social security number, maiden name, married name, address, nor phone numbers. '' 2. After dispute on XX/XX/XXXX, Jefferson Capital reported over the phone, The account in question is now assigned to XXXX XXXX. Please call them. '' My wife and I called XXXX XXXX and they sent us back to Jefferson Capital because they were also unable to locate the account using neither my nor my wife 's social security number, maiden name, married name, address, nor phone numbers. ( After alerting the companies that we were recording their statements, Jefferson Capital and XXXX XXXX responded saying, " Speak with XXXX XXXX XXXX, our assigned representation. '' ) The company no longer spoke to myself or my wife about the questions and concerns we had about our alleged loans or the status of our dispute. Jefferson Capital reported they owned the loan. XXXX XXXX reported they serviced the loan and assigned it to a firm. XXXX XXXX XXXX reported that they are the company 's representation and could answer my concerns regarding the status of the dispute. XXXX XXXX XXXX furnished a letter during XX/XX/XXXX in response to our dispute letter sent on XX/XX/XXXX confirming : 1. Who my wife was before marrying me. 2. She owed and was obligated to pay XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account in the amount of {$10000.00}. 3. A contract signed by my current wife given to them from the date XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. The company also mailed a bill of sale and assignment in response to our dispute. What was signed on XX/XX/XXXX was a Signature Student Loan Promissory Note. A contract Jefferson Capital allegedly made between themselves and my current wife. Section B ( cosigner information ) and Section C ( cosigner signature ) are both blank on the contract Jefferson Capital furnished. This further confirmed to me that I had no parts in obtaining this loan. The contract was allegedly obtained on XX/XX/XXXX and I did not marry my now wife until 10 years later. This confirmed to me that I was not obligated after all payments credits and offsets had been applied according to the letter furnished by XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The credit bureaus XXXX and XXXX mailed a completed report concerning the investigation. The alleged loan is still in collection status. My wife and I sent another dispute on XX/XX/XXXX reporting the errors Jefferson Capital made and their response to our dispute sent on XX/XX/XXXX. 1. We verified debt does not belong to me, the husband, according to Section B and C of the contract they furnished. 2. All of my wife 's student loan debt, private and federal, has been consolidated by XXXX XXXX. XXXX was the original owners of XXXX XXXX 's federal loan accounts. XXXX was the owners of XXXX XXXX 's private loan accounts. XXXX XXXX took over both companies accounts with my wife and has established a repayment schedule since XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, nor XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX have yet to furnish myself nor my wife with any written or verbal notification itemizing in detail this alleged debt. XX/XX/XXXX my wife sent a second dispute and was told on recorded phone calls and was told by XXXX XXXX XXXX that the dispute had been received XX/XX/XXXX, but results could take up to 60 days to receive. The status of the dispute was pending after the 30 day mark according to the agents when we would call and record. My wife and I indicated prior to each recorded call that the calls were being recorded. My wife also reported to XXXX XXXX XXXX that XXXX sent a letter and that she had questions about the results of the investigation. The agents from XXXX XXXX XXXX and Jefferson Capital both reported that no determination had been made regarding my nor my wife 's dispute and XXXX 's letter was sent in error and investigations can take up to 60 days. XXXX XXXX XXXX continued to take my wife 's contact information and ensured we would be contacted when a decision was reached. XXXX XXXX XXXX also said they would forward a message to Jefferson Capital to expedite their investigation process, but this never happened. We have recorded phone calls for the dates we contacted both companies and questioned how XXXX could send an outcome that both XXXX XXXX and XXXX and XXXX denied ever reaching. Those phone call dates are as follows : XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX pm, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. My wife finally contacted XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and asked how it was possible they sent a letter with an outcome to our dispute on XX/XX/XXXX while both Jefferson Capital and XXXX XXXX XXXX continued to report that no decision had been made, there were no results, claimed investigations could take up to 60 days, and that XXXX made an error in sending the reports to myself and my wife with an outcome listed. The agent from XXXX refused to be recorded, but reported to my wife that the decision was made on XX/XX/XXXX by Jefferson Capital and that is why the XXXX outcome report was sent to myself and my wife. XXXX reported no error was made on their part, but rather my wife and I were sent what was given to them at the conclusion of the investigation from Jefferson Capital and XXXX XXXX XXXX.

RE : Attentively review my formal writ composed declaration of not proven complaint misinformation that is all or in part : deficient of the adequate current status in the fullness of TRUTH, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, documented OWNERSHIP, certifiable RESPONSIBILITY, or otherwise irrefutable, complaint obligatory, and regulatory requisite reporting thereby mandating your immediate actions to rectify and remedy and any infractions behavior ( s ) by retaining or returning to demonstrate TRUE, CORRECT, COMPLETE, and COMPLAINT METRO 2 data field formatted reporting!!! I am a victim of identity- theft, I am writing to request that you block all accounts disputed as fraudulent on my credit reports with Transunion , Equifax , and Experian. This information does not relate to any transactions I have made. I did not give anyone authorization or consent to use my personal information. I hereby exercise my legal rights enacted by Congress and The Federal Trade Commission, which explicitly states when a victim of identity-theft dispute a fraudulent account on his/her credit report it shall be honored by all credit bureaus and all fraudulent information should be blocked within 4 days and proper notification shall be given to all data furnishers pursuant to section 605b of The Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act. Failure to comply shall lead to complaints being filed with XX/XX/XXXX Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and Attorney General stating your companys unlawful collection practices, misrepresentation of creditworthiness, defamation of character, and noncompliance to abide by laws enacted by Congress to protect victims of identity-theft who's credit been impacted by acts of fraud. Because I know my rights under THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT, CONSUMER CREDIT PROTECTION ACT ( CCPA ), and FAIR and ACCURATE CREDIT TRANSACTION ACT of 2003 ( FACTA ). I will be taking action. I also know my rights under this paragraph of Section 312 of the FACTA LAW : SEC.312. Procedures to enhance the accuracy and integrity of information furnished to consumer reporting agencies. ( b ) duty of furnishers to provide accurate information. -- Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) of THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT ( 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) is am ended ( 1 ) in subparagraph ( A ), by striking " knows or consciously avoids knowing the information is inaccurate '' and inserting " knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate '', and ( 2 ) by adding at the end of the following : ( D ) DEFINITION -- For purposes of subparagraph ( A ), the term 'reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate ' means having specific knowledge, other than solely allegations by the consumer, that would cause a reasonable person to have substantial doubts about the accuracy of information. Policy states. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C 1681 ), Procedure In Case of Disputed Accuracy. ( a ) Reinvestigation ( 1 ) Reinvestigation ( a ) In general. Subject to Subsection ( f ), if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a consumers file at a consumer agency is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the agency directly, or indirectly through a reseller, of such dispute, free of charge, conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the current status of the disputed information, or delete the item from the file in accordance with paragraph ( 5 ), before the end of the 30-day period beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute from the consumer or reseller. Therefore, my position is being clearly stated, these accounts do not belong to me, meaning that you are reporting inaccurate account information within my credit file. The fact that these are inaccurate account information means that you, this credit-reporting agency, are reporting incorrect accounts. Finally, you are reporting the INQUIRIES that are the result of the same type of fraudulent activities. It must be noted that I did not apply for credit accounts with the below-listed companies and creditors, some of these are the result of attempts to open accounts, but the companies did not approve the accounts. Therefore, these inquiries must be deleted from within my credit file. You can not delete the fraudulently opened accounts without also deleting the fraudulent inquiries. It should be noted that an inquiry that was not made by me is not a factual record, just as a fraudulently opened account is not a factual record and not referred to the creditor to be disputed directly with them. The credit reporting agencies have attempted to address an inquiry as a factual record of file access, but if it was done through fraudulent means, it is not a factual record. As a consumer, I should not be required to dispute each fraudulent inquiry directly with each company. These inquiries are the result of fraudulent activity and therefore, inaccurate in which the credit reporting agencies or the creditors can not verify, meaning that these inquiries are unverifiable information and must be deleted from my credit files. 1. JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM bal. {$13000.00} I am well aware of my rights as a consumer. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that you, the credit-reporting agency report accurate and/or correct account information within my credit file. My credit issues are very specific, these accounts and/or items do not belong to me. This means that you are reporting incorrect account information within my credit report. It is this in mind that I request that these listed accounts and items be Blocked and Deleted. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA, Section 1681c ( 2 ) Block of information resulting from identity theft. 1.Block. Except as otherwise provided in this section, a consumer reporting shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than four ( 4 ) business days after the date receipt by such agency of 1. Appropriate proof of identity of the consumer ; 2. A copy of an identity theft report 3. The identification of such information by the consumer ; and 4. A statement by the consumer that the information relating to the transaction by the consumer. I have provided all of the above listed four ( 4 ) items within this package. Therefore, I expect these listed accounts to be deleted and blocked within ( 4 ) business days. This is clearly an identity theft issue. I am also entitled to receive a free copy of my credit report, so I am requesting a free credit report and that all of these accounts, public records items, and inquiries be permanently blocked and deleted.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to file a complaint against JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS for violating various provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and to request the consumer financial protection bureau to follow up on my requests for information. I am requesting validation and verification of the alleged debt being collected by Jefferson Capital Systems. Request for validation of the debt : I am requesting a validation of the debt being collected by Jefferson Capital Systems along with this complaint. The Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), which is part of the Consumer Credit Protection Act ( CCPA ) of 1968, requires creditors to disclose important information about the cost and terms of credit to consumers before they enter into a credit transaction. This helps consumers understand the terms and costs of a credit transaction and make informed decisions about whether to enter into the transaction. Debt collectors, on the other hand, are regulated by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), which regulates their behavior and communication with consumers. In any request for validation of the debt, these laws work in tandem. XXXX addresses issues between a creditor and a consumer, while the FDCPA addresses issues between a debt collector and a consumer. In this case, Jefferson Capital Systems has assumed both the role of creditor and collector, by buying the debt from the original creditor. I am requesting detailed proof that the debt is valid, including a copy of the original contract or agreement with my wet signature, and a detailed and signed contract or agreement that the debt collector or current creditor has the legal right to collect on the debt, including the signed terms between the creditor and collector ( Jefferson Capital Systems ) sold along with the debt, the amount of the debt, and the name, address, and phone number of the original creditor. Under the FDCPA, Section 809 ( a ) states that a debt collector ( Jefferson Capital Systems ) must provide validation of the debt to the consumer within five days of the initial communication. I did not receive this validation, which constitutes a violation of the law. Furthermore, the failure to validate this debt violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ), which protects consumers from being pursued for debts they do not owe or have already been paid. I request Jefferson Capital Systems to send me the validation of this debt as requested above. If Jefferson Capital Systems fails to validate the debt, I dispute the debt, and request Jefferson Capital Systems to contact the credit reporting agencies to remove the debt from my credit report, as per 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ). Request for verification of the debt : I am also writing within this complaint, a direct request for information from Jefferson Capital Systems regarding the original contract of the debt that I am being pursued for. Pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), as a consumer, I have the right to request verification of the debt. The information I am requesting ( 15 items ) includes : The original creditor 's name and account number associated with the debt The name and address associated with the debt The date the account was opened and the date it was charged off or sent to collections The date the account was first reported as delinquent to the original creditor ( original default date ) Itemized billing and payment history associated with this debt The original amount of the debt and the current balance A signed copy of the original contract or agreement, including any terms and conditions that were agreed upon A signed agreement/contract that shows the debt has been assigned or sold to the collection agency The signed terms of debt assignment to the collections agency by the original creditor Information about any interest, fees, or penalties that have been added to the debt Signed proof of ownership of this alleged debt, including documentation or proof that the collection agency has the legal right to collect the debt, such as a signed copy of the original contract or loan agreement The current account number associated with the debt A breakdown of any fees or interest that have been added to the debt Information on any previous collection agencies that attempted to collect the debt The statute of limitations on the debt in Illinois. The FCRA requires Jefferson Capital Systems to provide this information within 30 days of receipt of this request ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( a ) ). Any failure to verify this debt as requested above violates the FCRA, specifically 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). In the event that Jefferson Capital Systems fails to verify the debt, I dispute the debt and request Jefferson Capital Systems to contact the credit reporting agencies to remove the debt from my credit report, as per 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ). It is important for Jefferson Capital Systems to note the written nature of these requests for validation and verification of information on the debt. Similarly, the responses must be made in writing, and failure by Jefferson Capital Systems to comply with these requests may result in a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Furthermore, these requests are in line with the FCRA which requires the collections agency to provide me with the documentation that I have requested. Specifically, FCRA Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) requires that Jefferson Capital Systems must provide me with the information that is used to calculate my credit score. Lastly, within this complaint, I am writing to express my concern about the abuse that I have suffered at the hands of Jefferson Capital Systems. I am calling on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to closely monitor their practices and hold Jefferson Capital Systems accountable for their actions. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requires credit reporting agencies to reinvestigate credit reports when they receive notice of a dispute, as per 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( B ). I believe that the CFPB has an important role to play in ensuring that credit reporting agencies comply with this requirement and that consumers like myself are protected from unfair treatment. I respectfully request the CFPB to require an update of my credit report to reflect the accurate reporting that the law requires and request the deletion of any information relating to this complaint that is invalid and unverified and being reported by Jefferson Capital Systems. Just like all Americans, I believe that my credit report should only contain accurate and verified information. I appreciate your attention to my long complaint and to this matter and look forward to your response. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Collection Company : Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX Address : Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, MN XXXX Complaint : I am requesting a formal escalation to the FTC to include a full investigation into the unlawful and deceptive business practices of Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, its executive management team, in house collection team and any affiliated collection service companies. Currently I ( and members of my family are being attacked regarding a debt tied to my SSN ) via harassment by Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC regarding a debt they currently hold under my SSN. Each of my creditors, on every account that is going unpaid due to my inability to pay approximately {$480000.00} dollars in debts to various creditors and the IRS was notified in writing that I will be filing for bankruptcy as soon as I have enough money to secure an affordable attorney and cover my filing fees. For each company I submitted and verified that they received my request for a cease and desist for no contact - with additional directions to require them to mark the account in a manner that if the debt was further outsourced for collection with affiliated companies that they would see the account notated for no contact as well. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has refused to acknowledge any notices and aggressively engages in blatant FDCPA violations even when advised they are breaking the law. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has willfully engaged in a complete disregard for my request to cease contact, and to discontinue disclosing details about personal debts to mulitple 3rd parties, despite Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC receiving FIRST and SECONDARY cease and desist request ( s ) with notice ( s ) of intent to file bankruptcy delivered to : Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX MN XXXX Their company consistently operates outside of federal protections regarding debt collection and following their unsuccessful attempts to bully and harass me into paying a debt that I can not pay they have engaged in relentless aggravated contact attempts to my family members and roommates including an onslaught of daily phone calls to my father ( same name ), other relatives, and roommates. They impersonate legal officials and claim to be the lawyers handling the lawsuit directly when battering the phone lines of my relatives and myself with relentless robocalls and calls from spoofed phone numbers. They advise that that have already obtained a default judgement and refusal to pay will incur further penalties and further court charges. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has taken full advantage of the pandemic to operate outside the requirements of the law. I have secured my fathers and other relatives phone records validating the time of contact and all the numbers can be traced back to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC is further advised for immediate notice in this escalation complaint addressed to the CFPB, FTC, and Virginia State Attorney Generals office to cease and desist any and all communications with me, my employers ( past, present, future ) and to discontinue their harassment, intimidation, and contact with my relatives/roommates/associates. This letter further requests that they stop disclosing the creditor information, balances and other protected information about my debts with 3rd parties. As well as to black list my social security number and bar any accounts past, present, or future from any kind of contact. I feel I am under extreme duress from their relentless refusal to cease their harassment and communications to 3rd parties disclosing the details regarding the debt. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has received the separate notice ( s ) advising that I am having to file a bankruptcy and Im getting together my filing fees. I dont have the funds at this time and although I am working with several legal firms who have offered to take up my harassment case against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC whether individually or in a class action claim at no cost upfront ; my bankruptcy filing is a different issue it takes time to get together the funding for that with my family providing assistance when they can. There is no confusion regarding my clear communication to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. In order to fraudulently obtain the default court judgement in their favor ( that they told my father it was already awarded by a judge and he should help pay he was very clear that it was not his debt ), they are consciously falsifying their contact records and will deny any receipt of my correspondence or debt information disclosure to 3rd parties in order to continue to aggressively collect on a debt held by their offices. I am certain they have falsified their records for my account as well as the other accounts they service. In the process of their aggressive collection efforts even after receiving my cease and desist requests with notification of bankruptcy intent ; they have exposed my private financial issues to my family members and my roommates. Their actions have put an agonizing amount of stress on me and ruined my XXXX XXXX state to the point of XXXX. I have also escalated a formal complaint including documentation to the Virginia State Attorney Generals office for investigation into the business dealings of Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC in my state. Regarding my concerns, I am requesting a further investigation into Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC including a full review of their business practices and detailed audit of other consumer complaints like mine against their company. They can not be allowed to continue operating beyond the scope of required business practices for a debt collection agency. After consulting with a legal advocate attorney who is handling other complaints against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, I intend to seek all options through class action or individual suit including any compensation available to me based on the array of evidence ; and their intimidation and blatant disregard for the protective laws in place by harassing me, disclosing my debts to 3rd parties, impersonating legal officials and intimidation tactics, while flat out refusing to abide by my cease and desist requests for no contact along with an additional refusal even after receiving notice of my intent to file bankruptcy. This notice of complaint to be filed with the CFPB and FTC as well as the Virginia State Attorney Generals office serves as notice of my grievances with this collection company.

For years, I had an account with XXXX for their wireless " mi-fi '' mobile internet service. It is a wi-fi box that you can take anywhere so that you don't have to use public wi-fi and chance getting a virus or other problem, as the " mi-fi '' box is password protected. I normally paid for 5 gigs per month for {$50.00}. Most months I didn't even use the 5 gigs, however, if I had special projects I was working on that caused me to need additional gigs, I had the ability to go into my account and change it, so I had full control over how much data I would use and how much I would pay. This problem goes back to before XX/XX/XXXX, when I contacted XXXX because someone hacked into my " mi-fi '' box and I started seeing charges showing up on my credit card for amounts in excess of {$100.00}. If I ever needed more than my usual 5 gigs for {$50.00}, I could go into my account and change it for the month so that if I needed more than 8 gigs, I would change it and the plan would allow me to use 10 gigs for {$80.00}. I always had my account set up on auto pay, and I knew I would never run my bill up more than {$80.00} per month and it was very rare that I used more than the 5 gigs for {$50.00}. When I started seeing these higher charges on my credit card statements, I called XXXX to let them know that I had a problem and that my " mi-fi '' box had been hacked and it wasn't me running the bill up that high. I called them for several months trying to get them to resolve the problem. The first few calls were to customer service, and I was told that the problem would be elevated to management to be corrected, however, nobody did anything to correct my billing and find out how my account was hacked. After several calls, I was told that I should have been dealing with the fraud department and that they would open a case on it and work on the problem. I let another billing cycle go by, and once again my bill was way to high, so I called again and asked for the fraud department. When I talked to that department again, I was told that nobody ever opened a case on it. I talked to people from the lowest positions up to managers and I could not believe that nobody did anything at all to adjust my bills back to what I actually owed and there was never a fraud case opened. I told them to take my account off auto pay since I was having to pay for several months worth of charges that I didn't run up and obviously nobody at XXXX cared. After I took the account off auto pay I used the internet service for the amount of time that I had already paid for since they never credited my credit card back and then I closed the account and never did business with XXXX again. I even cancelled my cell phone service with them, even though I never had billing problems with that service. I was just never going to do business with them again. After I closed the account and a few months went by, suddenly XXXX managed to put some effort into trying to collect {$170.00} from me, which was the overage from when my account was hacked and nobody could manage to help me get a new " mi-fi '' box or do something on their end to be able to stop the hacker. I told them I had already paid that balance and I would not pay any more money to them on that account and it was ridiculous that I tried to get them to help me for months to no avail. After a while, they turned my account over to a collection agency. Every time I explained the situation to the collection agency, they apologized and said that I would not be hearing back from them and they were sorry for what all XXXX had put me through. It seemed to me that after talking to people at collection agencies, this seemed to be how lacking in service XXXX was all the time. XXXX turned my account over to a few collection agencies and I explained what happened each time and each time I got the same response, an apology and a statement that they would not call me again. Keeping in mind that this goes all the way back to XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX has surely spent a good deal more than {$170.00} over the years trying to collect money that they are not owed. I was hopeful that by now this would be behind me, however, on XX/XX/XXXX I got a phone call from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX Phone # XXXX. I once again explained what happened and that I didn't owe XXXX any money and that my account had been hacked and after many, many phone calls to XXXX they did absolutely nothing to stop and fix the problem. The man I was talking to on the phone would say that his manager was right there with him and he said that if I paid {$100.00} that they would write off the other {$75.00}. I once again told him that I was not paying a dime for a bill that a hacker ran up. Then the man said that his manager said that if I would pay {$75.00} that they would write off the rest. Again I asked him what did he not understand - I did not owe that bill and I would not pay any money on a bill a hacker ran up and that XXXX made me make phone call after phone call for months and they didn't do one thing to help take care of this problem and if anything XXXX owed me money for all my time and effort trying to get them to help me and I kept them informed from the very first time my bill was too high. That ended the conversation, and within the next few days, I got an email from XXXX XXXX that my credit score, which has always been excellent, had dropped. I immediately went out to my account and XXXX XXXX had put this on my credit report, so I immediately went online and filed a dispute with XXXX. To my knowledge, I think it is illegal for a collections agency to try to collect different amounts of money than what was turned over to them. I intend to file complaints against XXXX XXXX to every agency I can possibly file with. I have always paid my bills on time and have always had an excellent credit score and I will not stop until this false claim is off my record. If it's illegal for a collection agency to try to wheel and deal with people about how much to pay, I will see that they are reported to the appropriate agencies so that they can go through what I have been put through. The only difference is that I didn't do anything wrong and I don't owe a dime of the balance of what they are trying to collect. It is ridiculous that any business would be chasing after {$170.00} that they aren't even due from all the way back in XX/XX/XXXX and here it is in XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX should be ashamed that they can't run a business any better than that. Thank you for your time and assistance. XXXX XXXX

Hello Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am contacting you for help with some creditors/banks on my personal credit report. I have already tried and disputed these unauthorized accounts on my credit report via the online portal through XXXX XXXX with all 3 credit bureaus, XXXX, XXXX and Experian. In addition, I have since tried contacting them all several times by telephone, email and finally written letters signed, notarized by my personal credit union and all sent USPS Certified Mail with Return Receipt to all the creditors and banks with no response or help whatsoever. So, I found the CFPB through research and am hoping your agency may assist me since they refuse to do so. I was a legitimate victim of fraud between the periods of XX/XX/XXXXthrough XX/XX/XXXXand only just realized 2 months ago when I decided to check my credit report. Several of the legit creditors and collection agency 's that did have deragotory marks on my credit report did immediately remove them and had sent me verified proof of such. The remaining creditors and collection agency 's I have listed below are the company 's who are refusing to offer any help. With the assistance and guidance from my Attorney, he suggested that I send them all a written and notarized FCRA Section # 609 Debt Validation Letter for legit proof that the debt was legally my own. By federal law, as they are more than aware of as creditors and debt collectors, have 30 days from the postmarked date that they received the written notice to provide written, visual and/or audio proof that I was the legal and responsible owner of such debt. Again, all of them with no response, help or guidance. So, at this point, the only recourse I have is with the FCPB. I will list all of the information I have available with each creditor, collection agency and/or banks. *XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Debt Purchased from XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX XXXX *This collection agency has been of no help and refuses to offer any proof or explanation of the debt they are accusing me of. What makes things worse is the fact they have removed the deragotory marks off of only 1 of the credit bureaus, XXXX. But, they will not remove the deragotory marks off of XXXX or XXXX. By law, they are supposed to make the necessary corrections with all 3 credit bureaus, not just their choosing. I am again requesting this company to finish the deletion process completely from the other 2 credit bureaus. *XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , SD XXXX This bank/credit card company lists a debt in my name as a " Charge Off '' on all 3 credit bureaus, but can not provide any proof that it belongs to me. I have never even heard or this company/bank until just recently. Again, no help or response after emails, letters, disputes and numerous telephone calls. They stated to the credit bureaus that it was " Certified and belongs to me. '' By federal law, FCRA Section # 609 they must provide proof of such within the 30 day time period or it must be removed immediately off of all my credit reports. Just saying they " Certify The Debt '' with no tangible proof or evidence is against the law and violates my rights. I know they have no such proof of my name and/or signature that this company can provide. I am requesting this creditor/bank immediately remove this account from all 3 credit bureaus. *XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , MN XXXX This bank/credit card/online store catalog company lists a debt in my name as a " Bad Debt '' on all 3 credit bureaus, but can not provide any proof that it belongs to me. To make things worse, this is the 2nd deragotory account from XXXX along with the Collection Agency above that is stating I have yet another account with them. I have tried, over and over for any help or response after emails, letters, disputes and numerous telephone calls. They stated to the credit bureaus that it was " Certified and belongs to me. '' By federal law, FCRA Section # 609 they must provide proof of such within the 30 day time period or it must be removed immediately off of all my credit reports. Just saying they " Certify The Debt '' with no tangible proof or evidence is against the law and violates my rights. I know they have no such proof of my name and/or signature that this company can provide. I am requesting this creditor/bank immediately remove this account from all 3 credit bureaus. *XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX UT XXXX According to my recent dispute withThis creditor/bank, it has modified or " Updated Their System '' stating that they " Certify The debt belongs to me '' but changed remarks on my credit report from " deragatory '' to " Closed '' with no payment information whatsoever. I have never even opened an account with this creditor and yet they continue to post on my credit report as if I did, but yet they can not provide any account information except the partial # 's provided. Just changing an account status from " Deragotory '' to " Closed '' and still report 3 late payments on this account is not acceptable. In addition, this company has pulled 7 " Hard Inquiries '' on my credit report over the course of 5 years. As I stated above already with the other creditors listed above, by federal law, FCRA Section # 609 they must provide proof of such within the 30 day time period or it must be removed immediately off of all my credit reports. Just saying they " Certify The Debt '' with no tangible proof or evidence is against the law and violates my rights. I know they have no such proof of my name and/or signature that this company can provide. I am requesting, again, that this account is removed from all my credit reports along with all the Hard Inquiries they have pulled. I apologize for such a lengthy letter, but as you already are aware of, these negative and deragotory accounts listed on my credit report are seriously impairing my ability to obtain any credit and is causing a huge problem within my family. Being a victim of Identity Theft from several years ago has been an awful amount of time and work just to clear my name of these wrongdoings. It should not be as difficult as it has been to make things right. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me anytime, I have listed all of my personal and contact information above. Lastly, I just want to sincerely thank you for all of your time, help and patience with this matter, both myself and my family very much appreciate it. I hope you have a blessed and wonderful day.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a COLLECTION NOTICE from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. showing a balance due of {$170000.00} ( pdf attached ), which included a letter address directly to me alone. This document showed the " Current Creditor '' as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and the " Debt Description '' as XXXX XXXX. The communication also notes that satisfying this debt would put an end to " calls and letters attempting to collect on this account. '' However, I had never received any previous communication regarding any such debt - by mail or by telephone. I found this quite odd since we had made a permanent move from one state to another just over a year ago. I also found it odd that a debt in that amount would be in my name alone since I have been married for over 40 years and all large debts have been in both my name and that of my spouse. Before seeing the debt description, I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX thinking this debt might have been associated with a medical procedure. I was informed that the hospital did not trade as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and no debt or collection notice was issued by them. It was then that I noticed the debt description and became concerned that this " Notice '' might be a scam since it showed an energy company. I remember years ago that energy companies were overtaking personal accounts without permission from the owners. To further add to my skepticism, this Notice offered a savings of {$1100.00} since " Our client has agreed to accept 9 monthly payments of {$68.00} as a full and final resolution to this account! '' These payments would total {$610.00}. It also offered a savings of {$1200.00} if I - " Set up a one-time payment of {$510.00} to resolve your account in full ... '' I contacted the telephone number shown on the Notice requesting more information about this collection. I spoke with their representative, XXXX. She proceeded to ask for personal information that should have been associated with any debt incurred and I refused to comply. She said without that information she could not provide me any details. I then told her that I would be contacting our attorney, which I did. The back of the Notice stated that I could send a written notice to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. within 30 days of receipt to dispute the validity of the debt or any portion thereof. It also stated that " ... this office will obtain a verification of the debt or obtain a copy of a judgment and mail you a copy of such judgment or verification. '' The attorney, who also believed this could be a scam, advised that I write this letter to dispute. I wrote my letter ( pdf attached ) on XX/XX/XXXX including a copy of the Notice and mailed it Certified Mail Receipt on the same day. My certified receipt shows a signature of receipt ( XXXX - last name undecipherable ) on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter ( pdf attached ) in response from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( no salutation ), which reads : " Please be advised we represent the above client, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, who is the owner of your account referenced above. We are in receipt of your request regarding this account. This letter is to serve as notification that we are returning this account back to our client and there will be no further communication from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding this matter. '' Both this letter and the original Collection Notice were signed by XXXX XXXX Operations Manager XXXX - the instructions on the back of this letter read much the same as those on the back of the Collection Notice. I would like to know why XXXX XXXX, XXXX did not send me a copy of the verification of the debt or a copy of the judgment associated with this debt as they claimed they would when I requested same in writing. I want the documentation regarding this debt so that I can get this issue resolved because I know this is NOT my debt. I can not assume that this debt is no longer associated with my name and current address if I do not receive this in writing from XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX. I do not want this debt that I did not incur to show up again on a collection notice or worse in my future. This issue has not been resolved to my satisfaction by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX or as promised by their Notice To All Customers. I did not sent a second letter to date regarding the original creditor vs current creditor, mainly because XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX did not follow through by sending a copy of the debt verification or a copy of the judgment in response to my first letter as their " Notice To All Customers '' claims they would, and I have no confidence that they would follow through to send me the name and address of the original creditor even if different from the current creditor. I know that this debt is not mine, but knowing it and having verification that this debt is no longer associated with my name and address are two different things. I would hope that I will not hear another word about this claimed {$170000.00} debt that somehow became associated with my name, but would like some sort of written verification from whoever initiated this collection that I am not responsible for any portion of this debt. I am also concerned that this may be a scam directed at the elderly, and could very well play out as a scare tactic to force others to pay the lesser amount in order to satisfy a debt they may never have incurred, but are afraid that they may have forgotten about.

Good day, during the XXXX weekend, the XXXX that me, my wife, and XXXX children ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX months old ) worked very hard to figure out how to make a large impact with our XXXX. We figured out a way to make a lot of sales during the week, and were excited about our new found success. During this time, XXXX decided to put a lock on my wifes XXXX account. The reason was that there was an account that I owed money on. I had used XXXX for a previous XXXX, and I owed them as the account went into the negative somehow. I was wrong for not handling the account properly at the time. I was in a bad spot, and my XXXX account had been an added debt on my end and I never heard from them, so the debt definitely slipped out my mind. So when XXXX saw that money was coming in at a faster pace, they held {$7100.00} of our money since XX/XX/XXXX. They felt that theyd found information that linked my account to my wifes account. They froze her funds, that had nothing to do with my old account, and demanded that I pay my debt, before they allow her to use the funds that we had earned during that weekend. We were using that money to finally spread some cheer to our family during a very difficult covid period where we are in California, away from family. They required payment, and we made the payment to the collection agency that they sold my account to. And then this is where the real problems begin. On XX/XX/XXXX, I make my payment to Jefferson Capital. I pay the debt in full, hoping that XXXX will receive information confirming the debt was paid. They will not remove the block on the account. They are using tactics that are completely unfair to hold funds that my family has earned. We emailed the paid in full letter to XXXX because they have said repeatedly that they have not gotten any confirmation from Jefferson Capital. Ive called XXXX many times. Each time, they bounce me around from department to department. They tell me that limitations is the only department that can help me. Then limitations department say that the collections department is the only one that can help me. Each department comes with a hold time of 90 minutes per department, per call, and nobody will help me. I have sent the paid in full form to XXXX and have been confirmed 5 times that it was received by various methods. I have also faxed, and uploaded this form to their systems. They confirm receipt but still do nothing to unlock our account. They have a reputation for having done this to many accounts Ive found. I have had to call and sit on hold so many days and have received little to no assistance. On Monday XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with a supervisor in the limitations department after the initial operator said they could do nothing to help me. The supervisor received my letter of payment and told me she submitted it to be verified and that in 10 hours, my issue would finally be resolved. And it wasnt. They wont refer to any notes on the account, or previous representatives to get to the bottom of it. Instead they continue to hold our funds hostage, even though the debt has been paid for almost a month. We had a supervisor from collections on XX/XX/XXXX, hang up on me because Id called him Bro. I admit that it should not have been the word choice, but I didnt mean it disrespectfully at all. I was attempting to show that I was human, and trying to have him level with me. He did not like that and XXXX, operator XXXX hung up. And then when he called my wife XXXX back, he attempted to help again by opening a case on the verification process for the form we sent in. When she asked him to speak with a different supervisor as he would not fulfill our request to have the paid debt removed ( he works in the collections department ) he hung up again, citing that we had received 3 strikes. Requesting to speak to someone else is a strike in their culture is a strike. Standing up for yourself when a supervisor at a place you do XXXX with, is a strike against you. This supervisor literally told me that he doesnt have to help me and that by staying on the phone as long as he had was not something he had to do. He may have been having a bad day, and I understand that we were on the phone for a long time, but at that point, I was on the call for 3 hours and 58 minutes. The culture of this company is poor, and we have never been so humiliated in our lives. We wanted nothing more than to have the account reopened as we handled the issue that I created by not having paid my account up. Now they are also saying we have to provide new information on our social, which is fine, other than the service doesnt interrupt over this. We cant even do anything because theyre holding ALL of our funds. As a XXXX, we have been unable to access our funds since XX/XX/XXXX, and are desperate to have the funds released as we paid our debt. I called Jefferson Capital with XXXX XXXX on the line and their supervisor XXXX said that to his knowledge, once a company sells a collection account to them, they no longer have any access or claim to it. Instead, XXXX is using bullying tactics to do all of everything else they want, which prevents them from being accountable. Its 2021, and theyre claiming that they cant even see the payment was cleared. Which shouldnt take two companies 21+ days to confirm. Please help us!

I transferred my family over from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX was offering a deal at the time if we started new service with them they would pay off the current phones cost to XXXX up to {$650.00} PER PHONE, so then our phones would be paid off to trade in for new phones with XXXX XXXX XXXX. It is an offer they had available for OVER a year. We only owed around {$400.00} each for two phones. We received the correct amount in a XXXX XXXX XXXX gift card to pay off ONE phone, the other we did not receive anything. After being in there for HOURS setting things up, when signing up we were assured that we would receive 2 gift cards in the mail to pay of each phone from XXXX. We qualified for the phones to be paid in full since it was under the {$650.00} promotion and for any cancellation fees and such to be covered to transfer over with the purchase/installment of a new phone and taxes paid, as well as trade in the phone I had with XXXX to purchase a new phone ( installment ) from XXXX XXXX XXXX WHICH I DID, and submission of last bill from XXXX showing early termination fees and such- WHICH I DID. I followed all the rules like I was supposed to per the promotion and what the XXXX XXXX XXXX representatives and emails told me to do. I stopped into the store XXXX XXXX XXXX store where we did the transfer from XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX and was told the representative we had no longer worked there. ( conveniently the representative that was helping us for hours to get everything fixed and resolved no longer worked there. Mind you there were system glitches the entire time we were there, however reassured multiple times by the Rep everything went through and was done correctly. A younger lady to be exact. ) We received the email saying the reward visas were sent to cover phone costs but one received ONE, and when I called the reward company MULTIPLE TIMES to figure out what happened to the other I got the runaround and then told there was no record of the 2nd reward even though I had proof. I called REPEATEDLY for MONTHS, spent HOURS on the phone calling to check up, called all the way up the chair to the Vice President of the company only to find out they were NOT willing to pay off the phone and were unwilling to do the right thing by the customer. ( Mind you, my family has been customers of XXXX XXXX XXXX for over 13 years!! Since XXXX XXXX XXXX was Singular!! ) at the time I finally spoke to the Vice President of the company, with PLENTY of extremely rude representatives in between. XXXX isn't the issue here- XXXX XXXX XXXX is. Because XXXX DID NOT receive the cost left the second phone the phone amount went to collections for {$820.00} and the VICE PRESIDENT XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX said the best the can do is pay half of the phone cost- when initially only around {$400.00} was owed and was supposed to be completely paid off. They were VERY unprofessional, very careless and did not treat me with any sort of respect- I guess since I am a woman I dont get treated with respect and care. This collection has now been on my credit UNRESOLVED for over 5 years, and has been repurchased multiple times by the collection agencys so it continues to sit on my credit- RUINING my credit. I have tried disputing MULTIPLE times over the years. Nothing has been done other than it continues to sit on my credit ruining me with no disregard. As soon as the collection is about to fall off, it is repurchased. XXXX XXXX XXXX never denied offering the promotion, however danced around it saying they cant pull anything up about it. I asked them to pull phone records of every conversation in the beginning pertaining to this situation confirming we were supposed to receive the amounts to cover and they refused saying they cant. I have tried EVERYTHING I possibly can to get this resolved, showing proof from online MANY others had the same thing happen to them. This is EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL, and that is coming from someone who has worked in customer service for 15+ years! I NEED this resolved, it has ruined my family the opportunity to be able to own a home, purchase a much needed vehicle and many other things that have needed to use credit. This is a HUGE scam that needs to be resolved immediately. I tried approaching a lawyer after I spoke with the Vice President to see what could be done, gave them all the evidence I had, but was told I probably wouldnt win because it was my word against theirs, and everything I had given the lawyer to look over had been misplaced and never recovered other than the two emails I have showing the rewards were sent! The account is under my father as the why it shows his name on the account. He is the main account holder. They even put my number in wrong for the reward and never fixed that either, they told me that didnt make a difference. Obviously it did make a difference. The files attached is all I have left of proof. I did try to contact XXXX to let them know what was going on, however the issues wasnt with them, it was with XXXX XXXX XXXX not following through with their promotion. XXXX was just following through because they didnt receive the coverage amount from XXXX XXXX XXXX.

The original debt was with XXXX, I was paying them and they sent my account to XXXX. I didn't trust that XXXX was authorized to collect money for XXXX so I kept sending money to XXXX at the end of XXXX, beginning of XXXX and then COVID issues. Almost the entire amount XXXX billed me for were turn off fees for XXXX devices, which first of all should have been illegal. I paid off several of those devices. XXXX issue, I finally arranged to make payment of the debt with XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I agreed to 5 electronic pre-authorized payments of XXXX. They took the first payment and were supposed to email me a contract, they never did. They were supposed to mail it in the regular mail, I don't remember getting it and have not found one. I asked them this year to resend it and they said they would and I did not get it. Back to the payments : They took {$180.00} out of my PNC Bank account ending in XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, the second payment was {$180.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, the third payment of {$180.00} was taken out on XX/XX/XXXX. I have an attached statement showing that the last XXXX payments were to be taken out on XX/XX/XXXX which they did, and then on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. The payments for XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX were never attempted or processed. I did not realize this until I was checking in XXXX to make sure that they closed the account and showed it as paid. That's when I discovered that they never took the payments out. When I talked to the lady originally, I specifically chose dates that were after my pay date to make sure the funds would be there. When I called to find out WHY the pre-authorized payments were not taken out, I was told that there wasn't enough money in the account. That is false. I have never heard of a payment not being taken out or retried and if that is the case why didn't they notify me so I could check on it or pay it directly, they didn't do any of that. In fact you can see that my account has overdraft protection and I was charged an overdraft charge at one point during the year and then they refunded the charge. So for some reason XXXX did not take the funds out of my account to satisfy the 'contract ' that they never sent me so that I didn't know what to do to complain. I called several times, requested paperwork, etc. They were very mean and said there was nothing I could do. How could I prove that they were supposed to take the money and didn't? I was having trouble downloading their messages from their encrypted emails so I don't even have some of the communication. I got smart at one point and figured to screenshot a email and the 'bill ' so I do have a few of those but any other communications I could get into because I didn't know the password. I couldn't find any of those emails at first and was unable to get any copy 's of the info and then I finally found some. I believe they didn't want to satisfy my account and must have gotten more money from XXXX for not collecting the entire amount and instead ruining my credit. If you look at my credit all my other accounts are in excellent repayment status. I have found a few statement from XXXX but they have a crypted email and some of the emails link to an encryption which you need a code to get to see any of the info. I was able to successfully get some of the info and even screen shot a chat. I can upload all of that information. XXXX in the first place turned off my XXXX lines after I complained that their sales rep gave me a phone that I ended up getting 2 lines and one phone. I complained because they were charging me for 2 lines ( in XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX ) and they wouldn't fix it. I had to pay an extra {$75.00} for nothing, then they turned off my other 5 accounts and charged me turn off fees for EACH line! they caused me to have my business number turned off and it affected my business, I was angry but made payment arrangements. in XXXX I missed a scheduled payment and they turned my account over to their company XXXX. I was a XXXX customer for over 20 years!!! but I felt they were abusing me because they kept turning off my phones and charging turn off fees so that I couldn't pay the extremely expensive bill and as soon as I got caught up ( and these bills were sometimes $ XXXX a month-like in XX/XX/XXXX ) they would turn it off again within a week or two! I feel those were extreme costs and I had been complaining for months. My normal bill was around {$200.00} and they would turn off my lines, I would pay and they would turn them off again in a week or two!!!! I lost my number because of their fraudulent fees and practices. AND now their company screwed me over by not taking out the preauthorized payments so my account could be settled and then they turned it over to Jefferson Capital to collect more money from me and ruin my credit. You can see this is the ONLY collections account on my record. AND I tried to settle it. What am I supposed to do when the collections company doesn't take the agreed upon money?? It's very difficult to find where to even complain about this stuff.

This is a request as authorized by the FCRA 611 Procedure in case of disputed accuracy [ 15 U.S.C. 1681i ] This request is regarding the account listed below JEFFCAPSYS and XXXX This account has previously been reported on my credit file and was subsequently deleted after the item was disputed and could not be verified. OnXX/XX/2021. I requested a copy of my credit report under my rights through the FACTA act. This item was not contained in my credit file on that date. On XXXX XXXX, after being denied credit for a home student based upon negative information being reported through XXXX and XXXX. I requested a second copy of my credit report under my rights to review my credit report after denial of credit. The account in question suddenly reappeared on the report dated XX/XX/2021. I immediately completed an online dispute for this account. In response to this dispute you sent me a letter dated XX/XX/2021 ( with confirmation number XXXX ). In this letter it stated that my investigation was completed and that you verified that this item belongs to me. I have two problems with the way reporting on this account has been handled by XXXX. First, according to my XX/XX/XXXX credit report, this item was reported in XXXX. Even giving you a very generous assumption that this item was reported to you on XX/XX/2021. I find it very difficult to believe that " additional information regarding this item '' sufficient enough to prove this is my account could have been provided to you by XX/XX/XXXX, only one day after the account was re-reported to you. Furthermore, I find it very odd that you're letter " verifying this account '' predates my dispute of this account. Additionally, you are in violation of FCRA 611 Procedure in case of disputed accuracy [ 15 U.S.C. 1681i ] for your failure to notify me in a timely manner of this tradeline being reinserted into my credit file. In accordance with the requirements of the FCRA as shown below, I am hereby requesting your complete compliance with any and all of the provisions as follows : 611.

( ii ) If any information that has been deleted from a consumer 's file pursuant to subparagraph ( A ) is reinserted in the file, the consumer reporting agency shall notify the consumer of the reinsertion in writing not later than 5 business days after the reinsertion or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by any other means available to the agency. I received no such notification. This is a serious violation of the FCRA, and I reserve the right to pursue further action. ( iii ) Additional information. As part of, or in addition to, the notice under clause ( ii ), a consumer reporting agency shall provide to a consumer in writing not later than 5 business days after the date of the reinsertion ( I ) a statement that the disputed information has been reinserted ; ( II ) the business name and address of any furnisher of information contacted and the telephone number of such furnisher, if reasonably available, or of any furnisher of information that contacted the consumer reporting agency, in connection with the reinsertion of such information ; and ( III ) a notice that the consumer has the right to add a statement to the consumer 's file disputing the accuracy or completeness of the disputed information.

I received a call from this person claiming to be an investigator : XXXX XXXX XXXX, North Carolina Area This person ( a male ) stated that he was an investigator and wanted me to confirm my name, DOB and Social Security Number. I asked him what agency he was an investigator for. He stated for a collection agency. I told him I am not giving him my social security number and asked why he is calling me. He said that someone under my name and DOB rented a car in XXXX NC and that the car is missing. I told him that I haven't been to that part of NC in years. Approximately 10 years ago. And, the only cars I have ever rented were in Oregon and PA. He said I owed a debt of the car and asked to confirm my personal information yet again. I refused. I told him that he needed to send me a certified letter that I would have to sign for in order to confirm what company he worked for and why he was requesting my personal information. I assumed at this point that he was a scammer or that someone stole my identity. He called again and I did not pick up. He did not leave a voice mail. I blocked the number. I then started receiving calls a couple weeks later from the following numbers. This has been occurring almost everyday. Sometimes I pick up, most times I let it go to voicemail and they do not leave a message. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX When I pick up on the phone call I am told that they are from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and they want my personal information. Social Security number and name. I refuse to confirm my personal information and ask why they are calling me. They state that it is a debt collection. I tell them that I do not have any debt that needs collected. I do not owe anyone anything that is in a debt collection state. I own everything out rite and pay my bills on time. I ask for the number of a manager in the United States so that I can confirm that they are a legitimate company. They speak XXXX English and state they are from XXXX. They offer to transfer me to the United States. I ask them where their company is located. They say different cities in the United States. Not naming any particular city or state. This is now making me feel like they are scammers and just wanting my personal information. I've went through this multiple time since they call frequently. Sometimes I let them transfer me to another person.. who also speaks XXXX English with an XXXX accent. Never do they give me a number to call myself or an address of their company. I looked the company up online and with the XXXX. They are a company registered with the XXXX. I saw multiple complaints filed by consumers with this company. Me being someone that is not in a state of having debt that needs collected I am no assuming they are scammers pretending to be from that company or that someone has stolen my identity. I call the company number listed online with the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and never get through to a real person. Usually the line is busy. I looked the address up on XXXX XXXX and it is to a warehouse in XXXX. XXXX Minnesota under the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called the XXXX. XXXX Minnesota Police Department where this company is located and spoke with an officer that stated there is no company there by that name. And he told me to block the number. I asked him if there was a government agency I could call and he said that it probably is a scammer and by me answering the number they will continue to call me. I told him that I have blocked the number and they keep calling me. He said to not pick up. I thanked him and then searched online through the government to find somewhere to file a complaint. I spoke with XXXX with the FTC Government agency that I can file the complaint through and he directed me to this site to file a complaint. I also checked my credit report on XXXX XXXX in which I am registered. I do not have any outstanding debt. I have a bankruptcy listed that was filed in 2010. That is correct, My ex husband and I filed it just prior to our divorce. I only have one credit card with a small balance in which I paid for my sons rehearsal dinner. I use it just incase I need to rent a car or have on hand in an emergency. I own my home and vehicles. I do not owe anything other than my monthly utility bills. I have a great job and live a life without debt hanging over my head. I would like to " NOT '' be contacted via phone calls or by any means from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I would like the government complaint agency to handle all communications regarding this matter with the company.

I noticed recently that a collection hit my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX XXXX and the amount of {$2300.00} I believe it was. I saw this on my XXXX XXXX reports. There was never any mention that I owe XXXX XXXX any money until Jefferson Capital put it on my credit report. I am curious as to why XXXX XXXX did not do this. Furthermore I am being told that Jefferson Capital owns the collection yet I'm being contacted by XXXX ( an agency that Jefferson Capital admits to utilizing to collect for Jefferson Capital ). XXXX tells me that they own the account as of XX/XX/XXXX. I was told this by XXXX just several days ago. Doing the same phone conversation where I was badgered and bullied for over 30 minutes for a credit card or bank card after repeatedly stating I have no bank card I have no credit card I have no debit card I have to mail things. I asked for the mailing address several times and took over 15 minutes for the representative XXXX from XXXX to give me a mailing address. The mailing address that I was given is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX South Carolina when I looked the address up online it belongs to XXXX XXXX. Directly before making this contact to you I called Jefferson Capital once again I questioned why XXXX would give me an address to mail things to XXXX XXXX and no one seems to know why nor does anyone at Jefferson Capital seem to care. The address that Jefferson Capital has on file for me as an address I left many many years ago long before the supposed account with XXXX XXXX was opened in XXXX. And Jefferson Capital actually has two addresses for me the one I left and another address that does not exist this is the same address that XXXX has. I am aware to open an account with XXXX XXXX a government issued ID must be used. It is my belief that someone obtained my social security number or the last four and that they also obtained an invalid address they believe to belong to me. It is not difficult to gain this information almost anyone online. The address and question does not exist it is a blend of two different addresses I have had. These two addresses were blended together by someone and they false address was made. So I'm having issues understanding how I have an account with XXXX XXXX since XXXX I have never received any communication nor contact from them for a collection I have an issue understanding how Jefferson Capital is the owner of this account yet XXXX claims to have taken it over in XXXX of XXXX when it just hit my credit report in XXXX of XXXX. Also an understanding why it is that I was bullied and badgered and harassed when I asked for an address to mail things to and then finally received an address to mail things to XXXX XXXX. When I asked Jefferson Capital they don't have an answer and don't seem to want an answer. No one is able to tell me where this account was opened what the phone number attached to it is or anything else at all. When I called Jefferson Capital and I was asked to enter the account number or my social security number I entered my social and the recording stated that nothing was found and asked me to please hold. Also and I would have to look at my bank statement to get the correct date but a representative from Jefferson Capital had said he would help me to place this in dispute and that he needed my credit report from all three agencies he asked me to pay a dollar I did this and then I found that other charges were being taken from the card aside from the dollar I have been told about. On my call to Jefferson Capital moments ago I questioned this and the lady I spoke with the supervisor told me that no one from Jefferson Capital had ever taken my information to file a charge. But honestly it is my belief that I stopped her by speaking when I should have been quiet and that I gave her time to realize that she was in the midst of saying that I had told them that I have no card. I believe my interruption gave her time to catch herself and regroup herself and she changed the sentence to go elsewhere. She also told me that she is not tied to XXXX lines thru Jefferson Capital I believe this to be a lie simply because the music that plays when you are on hold with Jefferson Capital is the same music that plays when you call you XXXX. I could be wrong but I don't think I am. I want answers and I want removed from my credit was it understood that it was a fraudulent charge I should have never been. I also want the companies involved to answer for the harassment and such

My neighbor gave me a intent to sue that was found in their yard in XX/XX/XXXX. The neighbor across the street saw someone in a gray XXXX XXXX XXXX leave it one the door. So, Im assuming it blew off and into my neighbors yard ... Leaving a third party knowing My personal business. Anyway, so after talking to my lawyer I decided to go on and settle instead of paying a lawyer. So, I set up three payments ; made the first payment XX/XX/XXXX ( which my XXXX checking would not pay it because they thought it was fraud ) the money was on the account I have proof of that. Anyway I finally got it settled it was paid, the second and the last payment was made XX/XX/XXXX. To pay it in full. I called the law firm collecting the debt and told her ( XXXX XXXX ) that it was paid she said okay it will be three weeks before we send you a settlement letter. That as strange to me I had this same issue about three years ago and they sent me a letter outlining my payments and as soon as it paid off they sent me a letter. Okay that was another dishonest thing she said. They the law firm would send me a letter. I found out when I called 6 weeks later to find out when I would receive my letter ... So, she said you didnt finish paying this I said what I did, she started talking about that first payment I said what after I clear it up with XXXX it clear a few days after.. Also reminded her of our conversation in XXXX re : XXXX messed that up but the payment would be clearing and it did. So, she checked that out and contacted me again saying it still not paid in full because I owe a {$1.00} I said WHAT????? A {$1.00} after I paid over XXXX. She said yes the last payment was XXXX not XXXX I said oh my goodness. I went online and made it immediately and emailed her and sent a copy of the {$1.00} payment and asked again when will I receive the letter showing its paid in full. She said soon, so I waited again and nothing!!! So, I contacted XXXX XXXX again and she said We sent it to the courts to dismiss I said what why did it have to go to the courts if nothing was every filed. She said it up to the courts to dismiss. I said what again I said why is that when you guys are the ones who originated this. So anyway the letter as supposedly sent to the courts so I called the courts and found they had not received anything from them. And said it wasnt a court date for me and to call them and ask them to resend to me ... So, I did that and XXXX told me they resent it and for me Wait for a letter from the courts. That was in XXXX. So I waited and waited and on Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX I went to the mail and received a letter from the courts and was so happy excited that oh I finally received the letter showing it was dismissed. But oh no it was a letter from the courts saying a hearing notice that I will be going to trial for this paid debt. So, I emailed XXXX Last night and told her what was going on and she email me today and said it was emailed the courts this morning XX/XX/XXXX ... So, I sent the courts at their request asking why was I was getting a hearing notice. So they ask me to put it in writing and email it to them. So I did, I called to see if courts got the email from the law firm/debt collector and the only emails they received were the two that I sent and that was about 30 minutes after I sent them ... Again, the email that was supposedly sent by the courts the morning of XX/XX/XXXX was not received yet. Im just not understanding this, I feel harassed and stress above measure. Why hadnt two mailed letters and an email make it to the courts???. But the original filing made it there with no problems. Now that is strange and unusually. The letter the courts need to stop this mess has not made it? Im sick and tired if this. This has caused my XXXX XXXX to exceed where it should be ... I had to spend money to go to the doctor and just to stressed. I did my part after I ran into back circumstances and couldnt pay the original debt. But finally got the money to make a settlement and did just that in the three months allowed.. she told me as long as I had it paid but XX/XX/XXXX. I was good to go ... But its 6 months after the last payment and Im still be threatened and having to stress over going to court on this. Why and what is so hard about this to get me the information that its settled in full? I can and will send all documents but its to many emails to send ... ..

Ive noticed my new device from XXXX XXXX I utilize the keychain password autofill to keep up with my usernames and passwords. This would include XXXX XXXX XXXX as well. I do believe its XXXX or Jefferson Capital due to someone changed the phone number associated with my XXXX XXXX XXXX account to XXXX which is associated with XXXX which is associated with Jefferson Capital. I filed complaints against this company due to sending the information providing proof the account doesnt belong to me. My old account for CFPB, FTC, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, EVEN MY NETWORKNSERVICE PROVIDER, XXXX XXXX ALL MY INFO WAS CHANGED OUT OF NO WHERE, XXXX was unable to change my phone number, I keep recieving calls and texts stating I owe money to the hospital, something with the blood connections, phishing attempts, my phone once the new bill starts over for my data the same day it shows cramming and slamming due to high volumes of data up to 35gb in one day being used when Im not even using the phone. When I recieved the accounts the ones I could get into its showing the same number XXXX attached to the acccounts when I never transferred my number to XXXX XXXX I had got a new number. They made it impossible for me to get back into these accounts by changing the phone number and emails associated with the accounts. Now recently I was with XXXX and had that phone number but I closed the account due to XXXX lying stating my monthly bill wouldnt exceed XXXX $ but every month it was over $ XXXX {$200.00} so I closed the account because I have health issues and my kids have XXXX and I just couldnt afford it. But this old account with XXXX is associated with someone in my family who was using my information I showed uploaded my drivers license records which I disputed with the XXXX someone who knew my social was having my Drivers License sent to their homes committing financial fraud. I know its the debt collectors taking money from my account by utilizing unlawful access to my accounts and taking money. XXXX XXXX XXXX refuse to give me access to my online banking Im missing approx {$350.00} now and they cant tell me where it went. XXXX XXXX is being remotely turned on from my device. The information XXXX is collecting is from a false pseudonyms XXXX false geolocations false log data using XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX looking at credit report someone pulled my credit report XXXX times back to back alone in XXXX a credit reporting agency I just gained access to today XX/XX/XXXX. Every time I turn my car on XXXX turns on remotely on my phone. My legs feet hurts badly after driving a car thats not in my name. All of sudden after the insurance company just paid over XXXX on the car being fixed this includes ac/heat it just randomly stopped working now my kids are freezing cold in the mornings for the bus or if we have to go somewhere. It shows on the radio in the car a desktop linked to the XXXX even after I reset the radio it pops back up!! My device and router detected a device unauthorized access to it and alerted me XXXX AND XXXX ALERTED ME ON MY PHONE NUMBER BEING ON THE XXXX ALSO WHEN I CALLED XXXX ABOUT MAKING THE APPOINTMENT FOR THE XXXX XXXX was linked to the account Ive never given them that number. Cause the car isnt mine its XXXX XXXX he owns the car not me. He bought the car in XXXX not me I just drive the car Im not tied to the car on paperwork never have. I noticed extremely high XXXX XXXX XXXX its like these creditors are fraudulently utilizing their systems and connections to steal money from me and my kids when the debt isnt mine. XXXX XXXX I tested them by giving them a routing and account number that had no funds in it to make sure it wasnt me they told me they received the payment on an account that had no activity but that same week my bank account came up missing the same amount that was due. My bank couldnt figure where the money went to. This needs attention INTERNAL AFFAIRS THIS IS AN INSIDE JOB BEING DONE. Ive lost work hours up to a week at a time due to my Wi-Fi not working making me loose hours and work the 2 companies I owe I called them told them the issue and told them I will pay them once I get a full check. Im stressed and this is going to kill me mentally emotionally this is illegal. There are over 30 soft credit inquires none that Ive done and some of them been pulled over 30 times

On XX/XX/XXXX, I called the company at XXXX. I explained that Ive been out of work since XX/XX/XXXX due to failed XXXX, awaiting XXXX additional XXXX. However, Id like to find out my options to have the XXXX account credit reporting improved. The representative explained that {$190.00} was past due, and I had {$170.00} over the credit limit. I asked if there were any options like waiving the over-credit money if I paid the {$190.00}. Initially, I was told no, and I said that I had other debts I had to research and would call back when I had the money to pay the debt. The representative asked me to hold the line. When the representative returned, he explained that if I paid {$380.00} today, {$380.00} would be waived, and a new card would be mailed to me with a {$600.00} balance. I was wary, but I initially got the XXXX card through a similar payment agreement. However, I recapped the arrangement twice before agreeing to pay the {$380.00}. I was told to call XXXX if I did not receive the card, and I could get rid of the card that I had. Upon making the payment, the representative said, you are making a payment of {$380.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, I said no, hold on, you just said that a new card would be mailed. He said, Oh yes, maam you are correct ; we can process your payment now. I said yes, based on a new card with {$600.00} coming. I did not receive the card within 14-days. It took about two months to receive the initial card ; thus, I didnt think that was an issue. I received an email from XXXX stating I had to pay {$66.00} to bring my account up to date. I called Jefferson Capital/XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, at approximately XXXX, and inquired why I received the email because I was waiting on a new card. I was told that was not the agreement, and after back-and-forth banter, I was placed on hold for XXXX minutes while the representative stated he was reaching a supervisor. I was transferred to XXXX, who claimed to be a supervisor, who repeated what the representative said : that the agreement was that I pay {$380.00}, and the card is reactivated. I again stated that is NOT what I was told. After back and forth, XXXX requested that I call back in two weeks, and he would listen to the conversation. XXXX stated it would take 48-78 hours to request the recording, and he needed time to listen. I called back two weeks later, on XX/XX/XXXX, @ XXXX, allowing sufficient time to listen to the recordings and update my account accordingly. However, upon calling and speaking with XXXX ( unsure of spelling ), I was told the exact same information as previously on XXXX XXXX when asked to speak with XXXX or a supervisor about the XX/XX/XXXX conversation, I was placed on hold multiple times, and eventually, the call was disconnected. I called directly back and spoke with XXXX ( spelling? ) and was told the same information again : On XX/XX/XXXX, the balance was {$770.00}, and I agreed to pay {$380.00} to reactivate the card. I told him he was half correct. He then informed me that I owed {$22.00} in late fees and {$7.00} in finance charges. I inquired how I could be accruing fees if Im waiting on a new card with a {$600.00} balance. He explained that I would not be getting a new card and to use the old card. I again explained that I was told to disregard that card as a new card was coming. He placed me on hold, and when returning, he explained that supervisors were not available and asked for a good call back number for a supervisor to call me today. I provided the phone number ( XXXX ), and I would be available anytime today. XXXX would not end the call, and we sat on the call for an extended time. He told me he was waiting for me to hang up. I explained Id like him to disconnect the call because I didnt trust that he would continue talking once I hung up for recording purposes. Thus, I said, I am hanging up on the condition that a supervisor will call me back today. Goodbye As of this date, I have not received a return phone call. I have experienced unfair collection practices by the company. I was promised a new card with a {$600.00} balance if I paid {$380.00}. The company is telling me that I was mistaken ; I was promised reactivation of the existing card. What I was promised and the company stated that I was promised they are incredibly different and could not be easily mistaken.

THIS COMPANY CAN NOT AND HAS NOT produced me my original bill from the original creditor they purchased my debt from and because of that they must to cease all collection efforts and remove this account from my credit report. REMEMBER I AM REQUESTING VALIDATION, NOT VERIFICATION!! This COMPLAINT is being sent to you in response to notices sent to me from your company and more importantly, due to your erroneous reporting to the Credit Bureau { s }, the highly negative impact on my personal credit report. Please be advised that this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 { b } that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above named Title and Section. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. Please provide me with the following : What the money you say I owe is for : Explain and show me how you calculated what you say I owe : Provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what you say I owe : Provide a verification or copy of any judgment if applicable : Identify the original creditor : Prove the Statute of Limitations has not expired on this account : Show me the you are licensed to collect in my state : Provide me with your license numbers and Registered Agent or Agent of Service : At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have reported invalidated information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureaus { XXXX, XXXX or XXXX } this action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by your company or the company that you represent, I will not hesitate to bring legal action against you for the following : Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Defamation of Character If your offices are able to provide proper documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes listing any information with a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated or verifying an account as accurate, when in fact there is no provided proof that it is accurate. If your company fails to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit report and a copy of such deletion { to any/all of the 3 major credit reporting bureaus : XXXX, XXXX and XXXX } request shall be sent to me immediately. I would also like to request, in writing, that no telephone contact be made by your company to my home or my place of employment. If your offices attempt telephone communication with me, including but not limited to computer generated calls and calls or correspondence sent to or with any third parties, it will be considered harassment and I will have no choice but to file suit. All future communications with me MUST be done in writing and sent to the address noted in this letter by USPS. It would be advisable that you assure your records are in order before I am forced to take legal action against your company and your client. This is an attempt to correct your records, any information obtained shall be used for that purpose. A response with a bill is NOT evidence of proof that the debt is mine. Anyone can open an account under my name for which a bill is produced, but that doesn't mean it was actually me or that the debt is actually mine. I need real evidence. This evidence consists of a contract from the original creditor or some agreement bearing MY written signature agreeing to pay the debt. In the absence of this evidence I ask you to please remove this account from my credit report.

My complaint is about a debt collector Jefferson Capital System LLC. They are claiming that I owed a credit card debt with an amount of {$3800.00} back in year XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX. First, I received a call from them XXXX this year informing me about this debt. On my best knowledge and recollection, I don't have any credit card with this amount of credit card limit even back in XXXX or 19 years ago. So I told to the person I spoked to that I did not owe anything from XXXX XXXX XXXX with a credit card like that. He was so rude yelling at me that it is my debt and my responsibility to pay it. I can not pronounce his name also he has this XXXX accent. Then on XX/XX/XXXX, I received an anonymous call that letting me know that there will be an attempt to serve me a court summon filed against me on my home address or place of employment. The caller not even identifying herself stated that if I did not call back this law firm with a certain number XXXX and I will be in danger to miss a court date and I will be in default judgement. On my mind this must be a scam so I did not answer this unknown caller. On XX/XX/XXXX anyways, I decided to call that number because it stressed me out, it deprived my sleep and I am scared to be in default judgement. I found out the name of the law firm is " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' stating that the summon is about this credit card debt. They even said that I owe a flat {$5000.00} instead of {$3800.00}, that's misleading to me. They also threaten me that if I did not negotiate with this debt they will put lien on my car or garnish my bank account. I googled and research this law firm but nothing came out with this name or even an address of the business. It is sound shady to me. So I realized that my personal information was involved on a fraudulent activity. On the same day I called XXXX XXXX XXXX ( also my bank for checking account ), to verify this debt that this law firm and XXXX XXXX claiming about. XXXX XXXX XXXX have no records of anything this credit card account on my name, or signed contract bearing my signature, and any monthly payments I made towards this credit card debt. Now I am alarmed thinking my personal information is compromised. I called the 3 credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ) to freeze my credit file thinking that they will damage my credit. I also inquired if this account is listed on my credit report. This debt is not even listed on my 3 credit bureaus report. I also called the police on the same day to file a police report but the police department refused me to file a complaint. Letting me know that let these people sue me to court and defend myself. I also filed a complaint online to the Federal Trade Commission about this incident. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a statement of debt from XXXX XXXX. Why XXXX XXXX just sending this now before they attempt to sue me in court? It's been a month over now when XXXX XXXX XXXX threaten to sue me in court. I did not received anything from this law firm, any single letter or this summon they talking about until now. This insanity is not finished yet. On XX/XX/XXXX I received another unknown caller number from a certain law firm again not the same one before but a different law firm stating again a court summon about this debt. Again if I missed the court date I will be in default and will received a judgement against me without my knowledge. Their number is XXXX. When I called and inquire about the name of this law firm he pronounced the name in a quick manner, so the name is not really clear for me. He is asking me about my personal information like my social # and birthdate. I did not give it to him my personal information because I know already this might be a scam and I don't want to compromise my personal information. He also threaten me that if I did not cooperate he will see me in court. I did not bother to call back with this shady law firm anymore instead I sent a " Validation Letter '' of debt on XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX XXXX. The letter is still on transit as of today and waiting for them to receive this registered mail with return receipt. Please I need help and resolution with this issue. I might be a victim of fraud or scam.

I received a collections notice dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in an attempt to collect debt in the amount of {$550.00} for XXXX XXXX Credit Card. A discount payment of {$360.00} was offered within the notice. On XX/XX/XXXX a certified debt validation letter was sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX via United States Postal Service. No further response was received by the collections company for the month of XXXX. I received a collections notice dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with a balance of {$550.00} with a now discounted payment offer for {$330.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX a debt validation letter was sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX via certified mail through the United States Postal Service. Upon my second attempt in validating the debt, communication ceased from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for the rest of the year. I received a collections notice dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX, XXXX in an attempt to collect debt in the amount of {$550.00} with an offer to resolve the account for {$360.00}. Knowing that two collection agencies can not collect on the same debt, I placed a phone call to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to confirm if they are indeed the collections account holder. I was told by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that they no longer held the account and was referred back to the original creditor, XXXX. I then placed a call to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to gain clarification and obtain debt verification, a XXXX representative stated the account was no longer with XXXX and was placed in collections to Jefferson Capitol ; contact information for Jefferson Capitol was given. I requested for a statement or documentation showcasing the amount of {$550.00}, the representative asked for updated contact information, I complied and provided updated contact ; I was told a statement would be sent to me for validation purposes. No statements were ever sent by XXXX. A call was placed to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC on XX/XX/XXXX to obtain the address and account information in which to send a debt validation letter. A representative from Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC communicated that the account was with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, when asked for clarification on the account being held with Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC as the collections agency but the collector is with another agency, I was prompted to update my contact information. I complied with the request, gave my updated information I was then told to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for further information on the account. I received a phone call on XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in regards to a XXXX XXXX XXXX Credit Card XXXX in the amount of {$550.00}. I communicated to the representative that I have not received any statements or paperwork indicating I indeed owe {$550.00}. I furthermore explained that I have the last billing statement from XXXX and I did not owe an amount of {$550.00}, I let the representative know that I would be sending a certified debt verification letter to the collections company. I sent a certified debt verification letter dated XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX via United States Postal Service. I never received debt verification from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX neither did I receive further communication from the company in regards to this debt. Upon reviewing my credit with the three bureaus I noticed that XXXX was reporting the debt as charged off but with a current and past due balance of {$550.00}. XXXX did not indicate on my credit file that the account was in collections. With my last bill statement from XXXX in the amount of {$570.00} and the inconsistencies in XXXX 's practices of obtaining the debt I decided to file a dispute directly with all three credit bureaus. A dispute letter dated XX/XX/XXXX was sent to XXXX XXXX and XXXX highlighting the inconsistencies that were being reported by XXXX, I sent copies of the collection agency documents and the last billing statement from XXXX. Nothing was resolved, XXXX and XXXX did not investigate the dispute and XXXX sent me notification stating the dispute was resolved by data furnisher however nothing has changed.

XX/XX/XXXX, I ( the consumer ) initiated a phone call to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC via the number XXXX pertaining to an alleged {$330.00} debt disclosed via XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX credit reporting agencies. An agent of the company ( Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC ) disclosed the account as being a debt of which was purchased by their company ( Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC ) from XXXX XXXX ( the Original Creditor ). I informed the agent that I was never contacted pertaining the validity of the account/alleged debt and that such debt obligation was never verified with me the consumer before their agency began reporting such negative report and nor was consent given pertaining authorized use of my private & personal information to said company ( Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC ) ; and as well, no contract nor payment obligation exist between I ( myself ) and Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. I requested the account be removed/deleted and all 3 credit bureaus be notified and their systems updated. The debt collection agent agreed to make a note and initiate a dispute pertaining to the alleged debt account. I gave my po box address and requested only written communication from that moment forwards. XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I received a 10 page verification letter via Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. Disclosed therein is a Jefferson Capital Systems cover page stating " Your Account Summary '' of which there is no contract of such account and such language has been found to be obscene [ violation of Title 15 USC chapter 41 1692 ( d ) ( 2 ) & 1692 ( e ) ( 10 ) ] and reflecting the " Amount of the Debt '' as {$330.00} ( of which is a positive balance, not a negative balance and therefore is a false representation/misrepresentation of an amount owed/debt ) [ violation of Title 15 USC chapter 41 1692 ( e ) ( 2 ) ( a ) and 1692 ( j ) of which constitutes Mail Fraud ] and a XXXX XXXX billing statement issued via XXXX, nothing more and nothing less. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has failed to adequately perform on behalf of verifying the alleged debt obligation as there is no proof of contract, no signature, no payment agreement between myself and such company. [ invocation of Title 15 USC chapter 41 1692 ( k ) ( d ) and 1692 ( c ) ( d ) ] I have come to the conclusion and am invoking my jurisdiction and will administer judgement over this matter in accordance with Title 15 USC chapter 41 1611 and have declared a Default Judgement in favor of I ( myself ) due to Jefferson Capital Services, LLC 's failure to satisfactorily rebut the disputed account via providing an adequate proof of claim. XXXX XXXX did indeed share private personal information ( consumer 's name, address & etc. ) to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC as a third-party debt collector without my consent and in violation of my privacy as a consumer [ violation of Title 15 USC chapter 41 1692 ( a ) and 1681 ( a ) ( q ) ( 3 ) and 1602 ( p ) and Regulation V 12 CFR 1022.3 ]. That of which is Identity Theft and since no contract exists between the parties ( Myself & Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC ) the alleged {$330.00} is a fraudulent debt account pertaining Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC [ violation of Title 15 USC chapter 41 1692 ( b ) ( 2 ) ]. Discernment was failed to be used by the 3 Credit Bureaus listed above on behalf of verifying the alleged debt account before reporting such [ violation of Title 15 USC chapter 41 1692 ( e ) ( 8 ) and 1681 ( o ) and 1681 ( o ) ( a ) ( 1 ) and 1681 ( q ) ] and in return I the consumer have suffered and grieved the damages caused via such theft of identity and consumer law violations ; i.e. slander, public humiliation, damage to my reputation, personal estate damages and ruined personal/private and public XXXX relations causing economic duress and effecting my ability to provide financial stability, adequate housing plus many other well needed provisions. I have been a victim of this fraudulent report from the " Date opened '' XX/XX/XXXX to it's most recent credit bureau reporting labeled " Balance updated '' XX/XX/XXXX.

I had XXXX XXXX student loans that were relatively small, well under 5k. I was under the impression that my payments were in good standing, next thing you know I 'm getting calls from XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX saying that I owe money and I owe them now or else. Or else what? ( This was the end of XXXX XXXX XXXX they said they had the power to seize my truck, and that they would be garnishing my grandparents income ( they are in mid XXXX and in bad health ). Well of coarse these threats scared me, and XXXX and or XXXX XXXX XXXX would call me sometimes 5 times a day as early as XXXX ( im confident that att could pull up these statements from that period to support this ). Anyways long story short, a man named XXXX would make threats on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX, about the above, he said this would all happen if I did n't settle up immediately, well not having a lot of money he told me he would stop calls and leave my grandparents alone, and to do this he wanted XXXX now, he said then two wks later he wanted another XXXX and the following month XXXX at this point he told me I would be settled up, debt paid in full, and this nightmare would be over. I gave him the XXXX payment fast being scared out of my mind and wanting to protect my grandparents. I followed up with the payments but asked him before the last one for a receipt. XXXX told me no to a receipt and said my statement is all I needed and would get. I asked again nicely, he said no and refused to send me proof. I was very worried about all of this because the same XXXX told me he would accept XXXX a month after a payment of XXXX and XXXX followed up with an email which I still have, demanding I reply 'agreed upon 'and returned, when I went to do that deal he said it was no longer on the table and pushed me for more. Anyway, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX both got my money and all was supposed to be done and over. Four years later XXXX has hired a law firm from AZ named XXXX XXXX to collect for the same debt I have already paid for, I responded asking for Validity, they supplied me with someone else 's information, complete with all of her dob, ss number and lots of personal info.. So for months I had no validation of what I asked for and who knows where my info is ( I still have all this woman 's info and paperwork complete with XXXX letter head on letters ) I called XXXX and got hung up on when I tried to explain what they have done ( probably a fdcpa violation in there some place I 'm assuming ) I called back again and told them what I wanted and what I did n't receive, finally a list of payments none reflecting any of my payments or admitting that I have already settled this debt. I asked for a chain of custody, they gave me a bill of sales from XXXX XXXX, but no place does it have my account numbers or name on the bill of sale. It just says XXXX XXXX sold debt to XXXX on a certain date. I called XXXX at XXXX and he admitted that I made the three payments he said XXXX took the debt back and that he would not provide me with any information or receipts of payments so I can show a judge in the future. He did confirm that the payments were two go towards three loans, two of which we are talking about now. I never had a chance to review the validation papers because XXXX provided someone else 's private info to me instead of mine. XXXX filed suit on me in justice court on XXXX. I called XXXX and asked them to stop law suit because I paid this already, the response I received was that they already filed and that it cost them money to do so, so no they would n't stop. I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX and already have one of three payments showing that XXXX collected from me on behalf of XXXX, but XXXX does not show this in payment records. I feel I got scammed and am getting scammed again, I intend to fight this to the end and hopefully expose XXXX and their bullying tactics of threats and lies. As of now I have not recieved service so only the cases have been filed. I 'm stressed every day and night about an issue that should n't be.

I am writing to dispute inaccurate information on my credit report. This is not only a stain on reputation & character but it is a violation of my rights, as set forth by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). After reviewing my report, I noticed violations of FCRA subsections including but not limited to : 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) & 15 USC1 1681 ( e ) ( b ). In addition to FCRA violations, I also noticed several instances where my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) including but not limited to : 15 USC 1692 ( d ) ( 1 ) & 15 USC 1692 ( d ) ( 2 ). Pursuant 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer whom it relates. I never gave any written instructions to put these accounts on my report. This is a clear and blatant violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Pursuant 15 USC 1681 ( e ) ( b ), whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates I was never contacted or asked to verify the information thats being reported on my file, thus proving that there wasnt an effort made to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information. This is another blatant violation of my rights. Pursuant 15 USC 1692d ( 1 ), A debt collector may not engage in any conduct the natural consequence of which is to harass, oppress, or abuse any person in connection with the collection of a debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section : ( 1 ) The use or threat of use of violence or other criminal means to harm the physical person, reputation, or property of any person. By reporting this inaccurate information, XXXX XXXX XXXX & Jefferson Capital Systems engaged in behaviors that caused severe harm to my financial reputation. Their egregious behavior has caused lenders to look at me in a much more negative light. This is a blatant violation of my rights, as set forth by the Fair Debt Collection Protection Act. Please remove these accounts from my credit report immediately. Pursuant 15 USC 1692d ( 2 ), A debt collector may not engage in any conduct the natural consequence of which is to harass, oppress, or abuse any person in connection with the collection of a debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section : ( 2 ) The use of obscene or profane language or language the natural consequence of which is to abuse the hearer or reader. By pursuing the alleged debt ( s ), Jefferson Capital Systems harassed, oppressed & abused me. Jefferson Capital Systems used language that I consider obscene. Using inaccurate information, they slandered my name, telling major consumer reporting agencies that I owed them money and I did not pay my bills. That is obscene language and those comments had caused lenders to look at me in a more negative light. I was demanded to pay an alleged debt that was never validated as mine. I wasnt given an option in the matter. This made me feel very uneasy because it felt & still feels like they were attempting to extort me. Jefferson Capital Systems continued to harass me by submitting inaccurate information to credit reporting agencies, thus ruining my financial reputation. These are blatant violations of my consumer rights, as set forth by the FDCPA. In light of the numerous violations, a result of their malicious behavior, please remove these accounts from my credit report immediately. Due to the numerous inaccuracies and violations on my file, Im demanding that the following accounts are removed immediately : Jefferson Capital Systems - Account Number : XXXX Jefferson Capital Systems - Account Number : XXXX

On countless times I have asked for validation for this collection account on my credit report. The letter/information that I asked of the collection agency goes as follows : To Whom It May Concern : Be advised this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. Under the Fair Debt collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I have the right to request validation of the debt you say I owe you. I am requesting proof that I am indeed the party you are asking to pay this debt, and there is some contractual obligation that is binding on me to pay this debt. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have or continue to report invalidated information to any of the three major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX ), this action might constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found or continues to report on any of my credit reports by your company or the company you represent, I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you and your client for the following : Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and Defamation of Character. I am sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could put your company in serious legal trouble with the FTC and other state or federal agencies. If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following declaration, I will require 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing of any information to a credit-reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately. It would be advisable that you and your client assure that your records are in order before I am forced to take legal action. CREDITOR/DEBT COLLECTOR DECLARATION Please provide the following : Agreement with your client that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt. Agreement that bears the signature of the alleged debtor wherein he/she agreed to pay the creditor. Any insurance claims been made by any creditor regarding this account. Any Judgments obtained by any creditor regarding this account. Name and address of alleged creditor. Name on file of alleged debtor. Alleged account number. Address on file for alleged debtor. Amount of alleged debt. Date this alleged debt became payable. Date of original charge off or delinquency. Verification that this debt was assigned or sold to collector.

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX EST, I received a call from a company called XXXX ( sp ) claiming they called on behalf of XXXX XXXX in regards to a debt that they obtained from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I informed the gentlemen that I had not received any communication from either his company nor XXXX XXXX and that I was formally requesting information regarding this alleged debt from them. I had not received any communication from either company prior to that date and I requested validation of the account via the phone. Initially, the guy refused to provide me something via the mail, but when I informed him it was a violation of my rights to refuse this, he hung up on me. I called back and spoke with someone else who said the request had been processed for me to receive something in the mail. Again, this was the first time I heard from them and I initiated my rights to validation on XX/XX/XXXX. I received a notice on XX/XX/2018 dated XX/XX/2018 stating " we received your dispute and have been unable to resolve your request because we need additional information ... ''. I never received a dunning letter from this company regarding this debt. This is in violation of the FDCPA 809 ( a ) 1-5 because : 1 ) This is the first written communication I have received from XXXX XXXX and it is dated 6 days from when I spoke to someone attempting to collect the debt. The law states they must send me notification within 5 days of the initial communication. 2 ) Initial communication is required to include : " ( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within thirty days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector ; ( 4 ) a statement that if the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, the debt collector will obtain verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment against the consumer and a copy of such verification or judgment will be mailed to the consumer by the debt collector ; and ( 5 ) a statement that, upon the consumer 's written request within the thirty-day period, the debt collector will provide the consumer with the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor. '' NONE of the above was included with my initial communication letter. They are also in violation of the FDCPA 809 ( b ) because : 1 ) I requested validation of the debt ( they acknowledged based on the verbiage of the attached letter - referenced above ), but they did not supply any supporting documentation for the validation, yet requested additional information from me to validate their collection practices. They are required to validate the debt, not me as the consumer. They were unable to validate this debt. 2 ) On XX/XX/2018 this account showed up on my credit report as a collection. This is within the 30-day time frame from their initial contact, where they DID NOT PROVIDE A DUNNING LETTER, and my request for validation, WHICH THEY DID NOT HONOR. They did not provide validation AND they took adverse action against my report during that validation period. This is a direct violation of ( b ), " ... the debt collector shall cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the debt collector obtains verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector. '' They did not cease collection of the debt while in the validation period. XXXX XXXX is violating my rights under the FDCPA in many ways, so I am formally requesting this tradeline be removed from my credit report due to their blatant disrespect for the law and my rights.

I was told by this company this was a very unique situation. The previous answers I gave to get to this point are NOT the reason I'm contacting you. On Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX I was informed by my employer they would no long be able to use my services after 10 years of employment due to a garnishment by Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, phone number XXXX or XXXX. I called Jefferson this day and was told they were about to close and call back tomorrow which I did and talked to XXXX who answered the phone. He said he was not a lawyer. I explained losing my job due to this garnishment, he said this was unique circumstances that he wasn't familiar with and went and consulted with some other people. ( I don't know who. ) He came back with two options both involving very BIG payment of thousands of dollars and said that was all they were able to do. I told him there was no way I could do that and isn't there anything else they can do. I was willing to make payments but I couldn't if I wasn't working and wouldn't something be better than nothing. He said this was their policy and if they changed it for me they would have to change it for everyone which made absolutely no sense to me. They made the rules they should be able to change them. I told him in that case I guess we're both just screwed. He said I guess so and that we were only rehashing the conversation and was ready to end the conversation. This made no sense to me and I asked to speak to the lawyer who did the garnishment. He finally agreed to that and put me through to her voicemail. I asked for her number directly and he said they weren't allowed to do that for some reason. He didn't know why. I left a voicemail for the lawyer ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) explaining the situation and how now I was out of a job. She never called me back. I called the next day and XXXX answered again. I told him XXXX didn't call me back and he seemed irritated and tried to get ahold of her. It just went to voicemail again. I asked him if he could please write a note and get it to her so she will call me back. He sounded irritated ( not with me ) and said he would personally give the note to her supervisor to give to her so she'll call me back. This was Friday. She never called back. They are looking for {$7300.00} and wanted payments of {$250.00} when this initially happened XX/XX/XXXX. I told them then I couldn't do that as I'm a contract worker and my work isn't always steady. But I wanted to start paying something like {$100.00} a month until things financially got better. They again, would not work with me so I didn't know what to do. I've explained to them that I know they pay pennies on the dollar for these write-off credit card bills and wasn't getting something better than getting nothing? Nobody will call me back. I feel something is very suspicious with this company. I have NEVER had a creditor who wouldn't work with me and they always got their money paid by working with me. I need help. Again, as I said, I am out of a job now. I have other bills that need paid. And the fact that they won't even call me back is infuriating. XXXX told me they couldn't lift the garnishment because it was in garnishment and there was nothing they could do. When I questioned him on if they placed the garnishment can't they cancel it he said something about that not being their policy. Again, that was when he pushed me to the voicemail of the lawyer who just will NOT call me back. I think this company not only needs looked into for predatory practices and unfair, unprofessional behavior but also let them know that an unemployed person isn't helping anybody. I want to set something up for repayment but I am getting no cooperation and, again, until the lift this garnishment I have no job. Thank you.

Around mid XXXX I received a letter from XXXX regarding XXXX, naming " current creditor '' as JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS LLC Account Number XXXX in the amount of {$1700.00}. I knew there were alot of fake companies out there claiming consumers owe fake debt so I chose at the time to ignore it. Im sure I recieved many calls but I never answered unknown numbers. Around mid XXXX I received a debt collection letter from a company called XXXX. not sure what this was, so I got a copy of my credit report. I did not find this particular company on it but did see Jefferson Capital Systems with different account numbers, and amounts. I have NEVER received any letter from Jefferson Capital Systems. I have never signed a contract with them either, so again I ignored it. I did not receive anymore, to my knowledge, any letter concerning this alleged account. Approximately around XXXX I received a letter from my local courthouse that I was being sued by Jefferson capital Systems LLC with a court date of XXXX. I never received any certified letter or any postal letter from the lawyer nor Jefferson Capital Systems LLC that I was being sued. I went to court and they did not show up so the judge according to local court rules he accepted my plea of contesting this friviolous lawsuit and set a hearing date to XXXX. They phoned in and another date has been set for XXXX. I made the statement in court th After spending countless hours researching my rights and wisconsin laws I realized that I could request documentation to validate the alleged debt. I faxed a request on XXXX ( attached ) to XXXX, the lawyer for Jefferson Capital Systems LLC. That reqest included ALL charges from a zeo balance to final amount so I could inspect if this account was valid. I also requested any and all documents including the original written contract I signed with XXXX and/or Jefferson Capital Systems. In return I got a almost XXXX page discovery requests in the mail. It was very intimidating to say the least! After reading it over and over I feel the lawyer is trying to intimidate me into messing up my answers and also he is clearly telling me what I have to say and how to say it at that. I contacted a free legal service office in Wisconsin and she reviewed my case and offered advice but they could not take the case. Here is her response to the plaintiffs requests : A few observations about the paperwork you sent to me : - There is only a list of accounts for the last 'bill of sale. ' How does one know that your account was in the previous sales without a list of accounts or something similar? You should request those from the plaintiff by sending your own discovery list to the plaintiff. - The signatures on the bills of sale are not notarized, so they can not be taken as evidence without further affidavits or testimony from a company who knows of the sales. If you go to a hearing, you should point this out to the judge. - Look at the addresses on the XXXX statements. They are different. Did you have mail go to those addresses at those times? - Bill of sale says " no warranties '' so they can not guarantee that the documents are correct by the seller so you should request statements that show how the plaintiff came to the amount due on the complaint. - The first bill of sale says that all accounts transferred from XXXX to XXXX " except for any interest of XXXX. '' So you should question if XXXX accounts were actually included in that transfer and sale. this has caused extreme XXXX and XXXX on me and my family can validate this. I have filed a request for production at the courthouse as well on XXXX. Next court date is XXXX.

Jefferson Capitol Systems aka / XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Aka Jefferson Capitol LLC/Aka Jefferson XXXX keeps appearing on all 3 major credit bureaus, this company is in violation of thr FCRA, because once the item is proven to be paid with payment receipts of the {$2400.00} to the 3 Major Bureaus, they violate the FCRA by Re-inserting their account under different aliases. The Debt was paid before Jefferson Capitol Systems took it over, This Complaint I am submitting I am requesting a Debt Verification.

Verbal Agreement with Original Creditor- if both phones ( Merchandise ) are returned back to XXXX , they agreed to write off the not part but ( ALL ) of the balance. Meaning- Consumer requires receipt after consumer returned merchandise to original creditor, so after XXXX XXXX were returned, and a payment of {$920.00}, plus an additional payment of {$150.00}, XXXX issues receipt stating they wrote-off the balance after phones was received, and also they sent reciepts with pictures/photocopies of the XXXX merchandise returned valued at {$1200.00} for one, and {$1200.00} flr the second phone I returned to them showing phones were paid off {$1200.00} + {$1200.00} -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- = {$2400.00} ( written off ) Seems that Jefferson Capitol Systems does not know what a write-off is so here is the meaning. If a creditor writes off a debt, it means that no further payments are due. In addition : the balance should be set to XXXX on credit reference agency reports. If Jefferson Capitol Systems continue collection activities on a debt that was already paid, consumer will be forced to hire an attorney and sue under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) for violations. For a [ Fraudulent Delinquent Balance Payment Request. ] This has been an ongoing issue with Jefferson Capitol Systems, and there are numerous other consumers who are experiencing the same issue this consumer is, Jefferson Capitol Systems needs to close this account out of they can not verify the debt is a charge-off and not a write-off.

I want to emphasize that I am a victim of identity theft, and I did not make this charge. Therefore, I request that you remove the fraudulent charge, along with any related finance charge and other charges, from my account. I also kindly ask that you send me an updated and accurate statement and close the account if applicable. Furthermore, I request that you cease reporting this inaccurate information to all nationwide credit reporting agencies ( CRAs ) to which it was provided. The federal Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) is in place to promote accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in the files of consumer reporting agencies. This inaccurate reporting is adversely affecting my good name, character, and ability to qualify for new credit. As a consumer, I have the right to accurate and fair reporting of my credit history, and this discrepancy is creating an unfair and inaccurate representation of my creditworthiness. I kindly request the immediate removal of this account from my credit report and ask that you provide me with a copy of my updated credit report reflecting the removal of this account upon completion. Enclosed with this letter, you will find a copy of my Identity Theft Report, which provides supporting evidence for my position. Additionally, I have included a copy of my credit report highlighting the fraudulent items related to your company, which are a direct result of identity theft. Please note that any unrelated information in the enclosed documents has been redacted. You will also find a copy of the Notice to Furnishers issued by the Federal Trade Commission, outlining your responsibilities as an information furnisher to CRAs under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. This notice specifies your obligations when you receive notice from a CRA, under section 605B of the FCRA, that the information you provided may be the result of identity theft. It is crucial that you cease providing inaccurate information to any CRAs and refrain from selling or transferring the fraudulent debts to another party for collection. Furthermore, I believe that Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, as the furnisher of this information, and XXXX as the credit bureau, are unreliable sources. Their inconsistent reporting raises serious questions about their accuracy and reliability. Therefore, I formally request a thorough reinvestigation of this matter. I kindly ask for the removal of this collection account from my credit report due to the inaccurate and unreliable reporting. Please provide me with a written confirmation of the deletion and an updated copy of my credit report. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

C/C TO C.F.P.B. In the court case referred to above, the Federal Trade Commission alleged that Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. 1692 et seq. and participated in unfair and deceptive business practices under the Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S.C 45 ( a ). ( See Federal Trade Commission v. XXXX XXXX and Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, Case XXXX XXXX. Ga. , 2008. ) Is it conceivable you could get your company to remove this unlawful, and illegal stain off my credit report concerning account number? In nearly 50 plus years dealing with any companies, I have never been so victimized and wronged so severely about an account that is not mine. I have left several messages with no responses from your employees. I have told your company this is not my account, and I dont have a clue where this originated from. I have sent them a police report to substantiated I had identity theft, and this is not my account. I need to hear from you to make an informed decision about your claim that I owe this money. I am extremely distraught that your companys defilement of another Veteran credit report. I am open to communicating with you for this purpose, only! In order to make sure that I am not put at any disadvantage, in the interim, please consider this debt as being in dispute, not mine, and under dialogue amongst us. The federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) offers consumers protection in contradiction of excessively antagonistic debt collection actions by collection agencies like yours. Your company has violated federal law in its dealings with me. Your company has forced me to report your company to our government agencies, and I have given them revelations to your violations, and using unfair, and the illegal credit bureau reporting tactic regarding a debt that doesnt belong to me, sadly. I do not appreciate your process, and the way your company trying to strong arm me by implementing a deceptively with your quixotically unlawful assault on my character. The last time I talked to your company an employee made a racist statement stating, You people never pay your bills! Really? This is very disrespectful, and a direct degradation of my personality with unwarranted racist undertones expended by this individual. I do not comprehend this, or grasp this on any level. I have never ever been talked to, or talked down to like this in my entire life, and I was reared doing the Civil Right Movements. This is a sneaky way to justify your company qualification without concrete evidence, and using deprived services ; I am writing today to complain of the unprofessional service I received in this un-forgetful process. I only wanted to get a V.A. Loan after I sacrificed my life for this country with honorably behavior. I will make sure every V.A. Associations aware of your company unprofessional and racist ways, and I am prepared to inform folks about your company on all social media sites. I just now researched this company, and you all are notorious for lowballing customers, using derogatory, and racist languages to XXXX. XXXX XXXX is XXXX and gone ; however, the ghost of XXXX XXXX is alive and well. Currently, I have to deal with his nephew and niece, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss matters further and to learn of how you propose to prevent a similar situation from recurring. I eagerly await hearing from you.

Under the FDCPA, debt collectors ( collection agencies or CAs ) are required to send you a debt validation notice within 5 days of contacting you to collect a debt.

Under the FDCPA, I have the right to request a validation of this debt. I request that you prove that I am indeed the party who is contractually obligated to pay off this debt. I hope you are aware that reporting any invalidated information to major credit bureaus may constitute defamation of character.

In XXXX we received a loan through XXXX XXXX. Recently, we received a summons to district court ON BEHALF of Jefferson capital systems LLC from their attorney XXXX XXXX XXXX. Apparently, XXXX XXXX sold our debt to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC without notifying us or obtaining our written consent. We have not received any notices, letters or any form of communication from any creditors instructing us that our debt has been sold or purchased and have not been given any chance to pay our debt or instructions on how to do so nor have we received any documentation stating that they are in fact authorized to collect on behalf of our original loan servicing company XXXX XXXX nor have they provided any original documentation with our written signature. The only documentation that we have received from Jefferson Capital System LLC states that in XXXX we received a loan. This document also says that our loan has been paid in full and has what looks like our signature dated XX/XX/XXXX for {$7000.00}. The only other documentationJefferson capital systems LLC has provided attached to the court summons is a document that states that its from XXXX XXXX and is dated for XXXX. This document is a copy and has an electronic signature. This signature is not my signature nor did I release anyone to sign electronically for me or to use my likeness on any form. I am requesting that Jefferson Capital Systems LLC provide proof that they are authorized to use my likeness and/or sign electronically otherwise this is a forged signature and I am treating this document as fraudulent which is a predatory lending practice. On our credit report it says both XXXX & XXXX loans are CLOSED. Jefferson Capital Systems LLC has not contacted us in any regard other than to issue a summons to court stating that we have 20 days from the date of this letter to respond or they will move forward and consider all charges true and valid. We were not notified nor were we aware that our loan was sold to Jefferson Capital LLC until we received a summons from their attorney XXXX XXXX XXXX to appear in district court to pay the amount of the loan {$8000.00} We didn't give Jefferson Capital Systems LLC permission to purchase our loan nor does XXXX XXXX have permission to sell our loan. And none of the documents provided state anywhere that by signing we release them to sell, purchase, gift or transfer our loan to another creditor. The only documents Jefferson Capital Systems LLC provided do not have our signatures on them they are copies. When my husband lost his job in XXXX due to the pandemic. We reached out to XXXX XXXX for a loan modification to lower the monthly amounts. XXXX XXXX finally responded back to us in regards to our request for a loan modification after an inordinate amount of time stating that the person who had been working on our loan modification was no longer with XXXX XXXX and that they are sorry that it's taking so long. when I called XXXX XXXX they told us not to pay because a loan modification was in progress. The next thing I know our loan was just placed into collections. Upon further scrutiny apparently our debt had been sold more than once without us having ever received any notification other than a letter from indebted stating that it's for XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX.We have not received anything from Jefferson Capital systems LLC and they have made no attempts to contact us at all except for a the court summons.

I was sent notification from a debt collector know as XXXX who was collecting on behalf of a company by the name of XXXX XXXXXXXX indicating that they had purchased the loan that was not in a status of collection after the original creditor XXXX XXXX went into tax forfeiture for failure to pay taxes and whose status of forfeiture has been confirmed by the the Office of the Secretary of State of Texas. XXXX, was forwarded a Cease and Desist Notification upon the entity giving notice to the consumer that they were collecting on a debt that was never in default to the original creditor. The original creditor gave no notice that XXXX was assuming the loan as a collection agency where there was a brief of contract on behalf of the XXXX XXXX. The initial correspondence received from XXXX was received by the consumer via email which is a compromise of the Service of Process Rules as a cited under Rule 21 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure and that notice of a change in ownership for the loan was not properly serviced upon the consumer and the loan amount attempting to be collected was far greater than what was owed. On or about XX/XX/2020, the consumer received notification from a company by the name of the Jefferson Capital Collections who sent notification that their company had purchase the loan and that the consumer was now indebt to their company where the loan about was even more inflated than it was with the previous collector, XXXX. On or about XX/XX/2020, the Consumer contacted Jefferson Capital Collection Agency via a recorded telephone conversation and spoke with one of the Managers for the collector who was informed by the the consumer that they were in dispute of the debt and opposed any affiliation with a third party servicing this loan because the original creditor did not have the authority to pursue any business in the State of Texas due to their failure to satisfied their Corporate Franchise Tax Obligation, essentially barring their authorization to conduct business within the state of Texas because there is records that indicate that they were in compromise of the Texas Tax Code Rule 171. The Manager who identified herself by the name of XXXX, was explained the circumstances of the changes of ownership and the consumers opposition with the amount being collected as well as provided the information confirming the forfeited existence of the original creditor and was asked to cease and desist their collection attempts. The Manager by the name of XXXX assure the consumer that the account would be removed from his consumer credit report on or about Sunday XX/XX/2020, and that any further actions regarding the referenced account would have to be addressed directly with XXXX. The Manager stated and asked that the consumer permitted here to notify the credit bureaus that their company would not be pursuing any collection attempts on this account and would cease and desist all collection attempts as the consumer had requested as authorized under Public Law 104-208. However, on Sunday,XX/XX/2020, Consumer accessed his credit profile to notice that Jefferson Capitol reneged on their promise to remove the collection from the consumers credit report and even added the account to other reports which resulted in the consumer losing more than 60 points on his consumer credit score as a result.

On XX/XX/XXXX consumer credit monitoring service XXXX XXXX alerted me to a new collections account being added to my credit report. ( see attachment 'Added to my credit report ' ) On XX/XX/XXXX I called Jefferson Capital via telephone to request Validation in accordance with the FDCPA. I never received any correspondence in regard to my Validation request. Then again on XX/XX/XXXX, I called Jefferson Capital again but on a recorded line to re-request validation where I was told validation would be sent out in the form of a certified copy of the original contract. ( see attachment XXXX ) I never received validation in accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1692g ( a ) ( 1-5 ). Jefferson mailed on XX/XX/XXXX a document that states they received my dispute but are unable to resolve my request and requested additional information i.e. SSN, Account number, Dollar amount of debt, etc. ( see attachment Validation response.pdf ) On XX/XX/XXXX I moved from the address where the initial mailing correspondence transpired due to private internal family matters. On XX/XX/XXXX The Sheriff/Constable delivered, unbeknownst to me as the initial address for correspondence with me was no longer my place of abode plus my father and I were not speaking, a 'Return of Service XXXX which shows clearly that I was not the recipient of my private and personal information/documents and in fact, the recipient was my estranged FATHER. ( see attachment XXXX XXXX XXXX ' ) and see attachment XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ' ) - according to UCC 1-202 . Notice ; Knowledge. a person has " notice '' of a fact if the person has actual knowledge of it ; or has received a notice or notification of it ; or from all the facts and circumstances known to the person at the time in question, has reason to know that it exists. On XX/XX/XXXX Jefferson Capital mailed my employer a 'Service of Process Receipt ' for a 'Garnishment Order ' that was subsequent to an 'Order of Default Judgement '. ( see attachment 'XXXX XXXX ' ) I have been unlawfully sued and garnished in the total amount of {$9500.00} ( see attachments XXXX and XXXX from my employer manged self-service HR portal ) due to these unlawful actions against me. Debt collectors have 5 days to respond to a request for validation of a debt. This is because the FDCPA requires debt collectors to provide validation information " promptly '' upon the first communication with the consumer. The 5-day period begins on the date of the first communication which was XX/XX/XXXX. Also, I called and requested validation in accordance with the FDCPA twice with one of those being on a recorded line, and was never provided with proper or any type of validation in accordance with the FDCPA, If a debt collector fails to respond to a request for validation within 5 days, the debt is considered invalid and the debt collector can not continue to collect it. The debt was never properly validated in accordance with the FDCPA at my request. The process server ( Sheriff ) did not serve me, so I could not have known or had knowledge about the action against me. The debt collector moved forward in getting a default judgment against me without my knowledge of a complaint/lawsuit. Then I was subsequently garnished due to a lack of disregard for the processes put in place to protect me from predatory practices like these.

Between XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX ( there are no credit reports available to me between those dates for an exact date of the following ), an erroneous {$450.00} amount past due should up on my XXXX & XXXX credit reports. The erroneous creditor was XXXX XXXX - XXXX & the reported erroneous opening date of the account was XX/XX/XXXX. At that time, both my XXXX & XXXX credit scores dropped from XXXX to XXXX. There was also an erroneous hard inquiry by XXXX XXXX - XXXX on my XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, only, credit report. There was also an erroneous XXXX XXXX address listed as one of my past home addresses on both my XXXX & XXXX reports at this time. I assumed the address error was related to the past due error as I HAVE NEVER LIVED IN XXXX XXXX ; HAVE NEVER PURCHASED A SINGLE ITEM OR SERVICE FROM ANY XXXX XXXX ; & TO THE DAY OF SUBMITTING THIS CURRENT COMPLAINT, HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A SINGLE CORRESPONDANCE FROM XXXX XXXX. ( For the record, I have lived at my current address since XX/XX/XXXX. ) At the time all of this showed up on my credit reports, XX/XX/XXXX, I reported all of this to Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, & XXXX. There are no XXXX or XXXX credit reports available to me between XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX for an exact date of the following, but as of the XX/XX/XXXX credit reports, the XXXX XXXX home address was removed from both of my credit reports ; the XXXX XXXX account remained on my XXXX report as Previously Disputed, but closed ; & on my XXXX report as 1 Missing Payment, but closed. And, both my XXXX & XXXX credit scores went up from XXXX to XXXX. This XXXX XXXX - XXXX record was completed deleted between XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX on both my XXXX & XXXX credit reports. And my XXXX credit score went up from XXXX to XXXX & my XXXX credit score went up from XXXX to XXXX. Around this time, I received a notice from a collection agency stating if they did not hear back from me within 30 days, they would put this same XXXX XXXX - XXXX collection on my credit report. Because this account had been marked as closed on both my XXXX & XXXX credit reports for almost two full years & removed completely for both of my credit reports by the time I received this correspondence, I assumed this notice was a fraudulent scammer trying to get my personal information to steal my identity ; so I shredded this notice. Then, on XX/XX/XXXX, this erroneous collection from XXXX XXXX - XXXX was once again reported on my XXXX, only, credit report by XXXX XXXX XXXX. And, my XXXX credit score dropped from XXXX to XXXX ; while as it should, my XXXX remained at XXXX. A person does not consistently earn a high 700s or 800+ credit scores at XXXX-years-old by not paying their legitimate bills & the one legitimate collection on each credit report was for medical services for which as soon as I was physically able, I paid in full as noted on my XXXX credit report! Please Note : I have no documents to attach because as noted, above, I HAVE NEVER PURCHASED A SINGLE ITEM OR SERVICE FROM ANY XXXX XXXX ; & TO THE DAY OF SUBMITTING THIS CURRENT COMPLAINT, HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A SINGLE CORRESPONDANCE FROM XXXX XXXX & shredded the notice, now assumed to be from XXXX XXXX XXXX believing it to be from a fraudulent scammer trying to get my personal information to steal my identity.

This letter is being sent to you in response your erroneous reporting to the Credit Bureau { s }, the highly negative impact on my personal credit report. Please be advised that this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 { b } that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above-named Title and Section. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. Please provide me with the following : What the money you say I owe is for : Explain and show me how you calculated what you say I owe : Provide me with copies of any signed papers that show I agreed to pay what you say I owe : Provide a verification or copy of any judgment if applicable : Identify the original creditor : Prove the Statute of Limitations has not expired on this account : Show me the you are licensed to collect in my state : Provide me with your license numbers and Registered Agent or Agent of Service : At this time, I will also inform you that if your offices have reported invalidated information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureaus { XXXX, XXXX or XXXX } this action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by your company or the company that you represent, I will not hesitate to bring legal action against you for the following : Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Defamation of Character If your offices can provide proper documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also, during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes listing any information with a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated or verifying an account as accurate, when in fact there is no provided proof that it is accurate. If your company fails to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit report and a copy of such deletion { to any/all of the 3 major credit reporting bureaus : XXXX, XXXX and XXXX } request shall be sent to me immediately.

On or about XX/XX/2018 I received my annual credit report from XXXX which contained a number of items that did not belong to me and was seriously affecting my credit score. Among the accounts reported in error that did not belong to myself was from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( partial acct # XXXX ) in the amount {$950.00}. On or about XX/XX/2018 I drafted a letter to XXXX demanding the wrongfully reported items be removed pursuant to 15 USC 1681 ( i ) including that of XXXX XXXX. Said letter was send via facsimile to XXXX XXXX with confirmation of fax received. ( A true and accurate copy of letter and fax confirmation are attached to this complaint ). I also contacted XXXX XXXX and demanded any contractual documentation from the original creditor. XXXX XXXX told me that no such documents exist and that they go by social security numbers to which I explained the lunacy of their explanation to the rep. On XX/XX/2018 I received an email from XXXX stating the dispute was completed and that I could get my results online. After many frustrating attempts to obtain the online results to no avail, I called XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and was told that they are having problems with their system and gave me the results over the phone. XXXX deleted all of the items I requested in my XX/XX/XXXX letter except XXXX XXXX, which I was told came back verified. I told XXXX that was an impossibility because it is not my account so any verification is not accurate. The XXXX representative recommended re-disputing the XXXX XXXX account using their online dispute center. As XXXX XXXX online system was having issues, the representative filed the online dispute from their location, asking me a what basis of the dispute, which I again responded was not my account. On XX/XX/2018, a day after XXXX filed the online dispute, I received an email from XXXX stating the dispute was completed and to go online to get the results. A copy of said email is attached. True to form, after several failed attempts to retrieve the result information online, I called XXXX and received the same nonsense story about the system not working correctly, once again received the XXXX XXXX dispute result over the phone, and once again XXXX said it is verified. I explained to the XXXX rep that a proper investigation into a dispute can not be done with a 24 hour period as was done here where XXXX is obviously relying on XXXX information, which always favors the the collection agency, which is a client of XXXX, rather than the consumer. The rep said I should dispute the account with XXXX XXXX directly. I responded that it is not my responsibility to do what is deemed XXXX XXXX responsibility under the FCRA as it the credit reporting agency 's legal obligation to make sure that what they are reporting is truthful and accurate. When a consumer informs the agency that the reporting is in error or fraudulent, the credit reporting agency as a heightened duty under the statute to do a proper and complete investigation. All XXXX would have to do is demand from XXXX XXXX any original contractual documentation by and between myself and the original creditor, which they would then find out it does not exist. Also, as the account is not mine, I can give them no supporting documentation as there is none to give.

I had my identity stolen in XX/XX/XXXX 2007. In less than a month 's time the ID thieves in XXXX, ( Im in XXXX ), bought XXXX top line XXXX COMPUTERS @ {$3000.00} each. Also a few other smaller checks for random items, accounts, etc. On about XXXX XXXX, 2007 I finally get a XXXX Bank postcard stating my check for {$3000.00} had bounced and already began the computer 's process of double charging the overdraft fee, then the fee for that, which lead to more overdraft fees. XXXX was of no help with the problem, in fact they were " shady '' about it. I called several times only to be mocked, laughed at, and literally called a liar. Even though copies to every check & transaction I had ever done with them was available anytime for my viewing- they refused me any information, viewing, what the large amount paid for ... NOTHING. This was all witnessed by officers at the XXXX Police Dept as my final call to XXXX about this was in front of them so they could listen. The representative mocking my call and handwriting changes his tune when a Detective took phone from me and politely tore into his unprofessional behavior and that ID theft reports had been filed ; investigations started. So there 's more but I 'll cut to where this strange collection letter comes in. For over a year now I have begun receiving NEW debt collection letters XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX behalf of a Jefferson Capital Systems , for the old, fraudulent, closed and erased from XXXX Bank 's system, debt! They have the amount of {$920.00} as the total, then proceed to coax me in by asking for a mere {$180.00} within 28 days and they 'll forgive the whole thing. BUT, there 's fine print stating that once I do acknowledge them and even offer a payment, not make a payment, but offer- that will put me back in the clear to be sued, and start the debt 's full amount over again like new! I am blown away, first off- the debt was never theirs to forgive, it was a mistake in XXXX Bank 's system, which has been completely erased therefore already forgiven, because obviously they do n't want any records of it to be accessible and do n't want to ever have it brought up- ( possibly in court or elsewhere ). A XXXX branch manager about 7 months ago searched extensively throughout their archives/database and current systems for anything on that former account with them or my name even, turn up nothing at all. Like it never existed even asked me if I was sure I banked with XXXX back then! It 's not on my credit reports, XXXX definitely is n't pursuing this and so bottom line- Who the heck do these shady negotiating debt swindlers think they are?! I 've had it with them! I will not contact them directly, as why I listed above. And I surely wo n't be paying for a debt I did n't even cause, to these people to pocket every bit of it! Which is exactly what they 'd do because why would XXXX want it? I do n't exist to them anymore. And on a side note, I 've read about the FTC already coming down on these XXXX companies for fraudulent acts, especially Jefferson Capital, so I think the FTC needs to know that the XXXX & XXXX games have n't stopped, their just changing up their strategies starting with their debt letters approach on people.

XXXX XXXX XXXX ; Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX ; Phone Number : ( XXXX ) XXXX is a fraudulent company. They have picked up XXXX of my accounts from INCREDIBLY old debts, ( too old, closed & falling off of my credit report ). They post them with false dates claiming the accounts are less than XXXX years old! They have dragged my credit so far down, after I spent years rebuilding it!! I have reported them to the three major credit Bureaus for review several times but never had any luck with that method. Not to mention, if I didn't actively monitor my credit, I would not have even known about them because they NEVER called me, NEVER sent a letter in the mail or anything!! They are liars, who hide essential information & they are destroying all my hard work to repair & rebuild my credit for both my family 's future & my business!! First One, currently dragging my credit down, ( fraudulently ), is from the original creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX. I opened an account with them on XX/XX/XXXX. This is also on my credit report but as " Closed '' with a {$0.00} balance as of, XXXX XXXX, XXXX. Years later, XX/XX/XXXX, Jefferson Capital System suddenly appears on my credit report. Claiming the account was opened with them on XX/XX/XXXX. They also update it every month, falsely claiming I have failed to make agreed payments with them since XXXX! They NEVER even contacted me, EVER, in any way. Yet they have the most recent update on, XX/XX/XXXX, with a balance of {$2500.00} & these negative remarks, ( alongside the alleged 5 years of failed payments ), " Seriously past due date/ assigned to attorney, collection agency, or credit grantor 's internal collection department ''!! I'm furious!! SECOND ONE, same company, JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS, same fraudulant dates & NO ATTEMPTS to contact me by phone, mail & XXXX other means. The XXXX creditor : XXXX XXXX, claimed to be opened on XX/XX/XXXX, most recent update on, XX/XX/XXXX, with an alleged balance of {$1400.00}. Same deal with the negative comments stated as, " Seriously past due date/ assigned to attorney, collection agency, or credit grantor 's internal collection department '' but with 3 years of non payment. ALSO, IT APPEARDED RANDOMLY ON MY CREDIT REPORT THE EXACT SAME DAY AS THE PREVIOUSLY MENTCHIONED ONE!!! ( XX/XX/XXXX ) This account is even more baffling to me as I have no account from XXXX XXXX, I was on someone else 's plan YEARS ago, but XXXX never even tried to attach the account to my credit & as far as I know, it was paid in full due to a promotion to switch carriers from XXXX to XXXX back in XXXX I believe? ( Not 100 % on that date, as it wasn't in my name & I don't have anything to officially look back on to find the exact date. Regardless, in both cases, Jefferson Capital Systems never tried to reach out to me, therefore, I never made any agreements to pay them anything, the dates & payment histories, etc. are all wrong. I owe them NOTHING. Just as I owe XXXX XXXX & the account, I had with XXXX is over XXXX XXXX XXXX & had been closed for years before Jefferson Capital Systems appeared on my report, ( oddly both, XX/XX/XXXX ... after my information got leaked from two different companies. )

XXXX originally reported this account as a collection/charge-off which is fine. However this account was sold to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC according to their comments for XXXX. This means they cant report a duplicate account. If the account is sold then they should have removed it from their profile so I wont get dinged from them and Jefferson Capital. They never removed this account which I tried to illustrate to them. On top of that the account is reporting inaccurate and inconsistent information that violate my FCRA rights. I noticed XXXX XXXX had a discrepancy in the " high credit '', " date of last activity '', date of last payment '', date opened '' section of the listings. XXXX and XXXX are reporting a " date opened ' of " XX/XX/XXXX '', however XXXX is reporting a date opened of " XX/XX/XXXX ''. XXXX and XXXX are reporting a " date of last payment '' of " XX/XX/XXXX '', however XXXX is reporting a " date of last payment '' of " XX/XX/XXXX ''. XXXX is reporting a " date of last activity '' of " XX/XX/XXXX '', however XXXX is reporting " date of last activity '' on " XX/XX/XXXX '' and XXXX is reporting " date of last activity '' at " XX/XX/XXXX ''. XXXX and XXXX are showing my " high credit '' balance as {$10000.00}, however XXXX is showing it as {$8800.00}. If this is the same account, reported by the same creditor how are these numbers and dates different? I also noticed JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYST XXXX had a discrepancy in the " account type '', " account number '', " date of last activity '', date of last payment '', date opened ', " company name '', " payment history '', " payment status '', " monthly terms '' section of the listings. XXXX and XXXX are reporting a " date opened ' of " XX/XX/XXXX '', however XXXX is reporting a date opened of " XX/XX/XXXX ''. XXXX is reporting a " date of last payment '' of " nothing '', however XXXX is reporting a " date of last payment '' of " XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX is reporting a " date of last payment '' of " nothing '' as well. XXXX is reporting a " date of last activity '' of " XX/XX/XXXX '', however XXXX is reporting " date of last activity '' on " XX/XX/XXXX '' and XXXX is reporting " date of last activity '' at " XX/XX/XXXX ''. Which means that for whatever reason this account was reaged. The company name for this account is inconsistent as it reflects as " Jefferson Capital Sys '' for XXXX and XXXX but is registered as " JEFFCAPSYS '' for XXXX. Im not sure why these abbreviations are being used but it makes this confusing. The " payment status '' for XXXX and XXXX is showing as " collection/charge off yet XXXX is showing as " 120 days '' past due which is a violation if this is supposed to be a collection item. There are " monthly terms '' showing for XXXX which is also a violation because this account isnt reporting as a loan of any type. You have it showing as a ( 1 ) one month term. Finally if this is supposedly a collection account then there should be no " payment history '' showing at all. XXXX and XXXX are in violation as well. The account number is showing inconsistently as well. XXXX and XXXX are showing the " account number '' as XXXX yet XXXX is showing it as XXXX.

I have been working on my credit report diligently and this account is showing as a derogatory collection. I originally tried to purchase a XXXX XXXX, I think it was, from XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Fl. and has since been sold to Jefferson Capital. When I went to pick it up from XXXX XXXX and do paperwork, salesman informed me that something was wrong with that car so he sent it to the shop and brought out a XXXX XXXX instead. I agreed because I was desperate. I had nothing but issues with it and the gap insurance seemed to not cover anything. The car was a XXXX and I took it off the lot in XXXX, I believe. I called service dept several times for different issues and all they would tell me is " XXXX '' won't cover it. The last problem, which I was done dealing with them at this point, was a horrible smell coming from the a/c usage. I paid {$120.00} to XXXX XXXX, ( XXXX, gap ins ) recommended they were closest to me, XXXX, Fl ) for them to fix it and when I got it back it still smelled when using a/c. XXXX would not pay for it. I had the car approximately 4 months. I asked them to come pick the car up and I would like to end the contract. They indeed, picked the car up. I spoke with the salesmen most of the calls I made other than the service dept. This was 3 years ago so I'm sorry, but I can not remember their names. My credit report is showing I owe Jefferson Capital {$15000.00}, which was the ORIGINAL price of purchase, AND they have the car and I paid payments while I had possession and a {$500.00} down payment! These amounts may seem petty to them, but they hurt my pocket tremendously! I spoke with Jefferson Capital and tried to negotiate a fair price, and they did come down considerably but I still don't feel that I owe {$6500.00} ( Jefferson Capital settlement offer ) for a car I had constant issues with and no longer own and ONLY owned for approx 4 months, and XXXX XXXX has been in possession of the car, since XXXX. I should have known they possessed shady practices, when he brought me out a whole different make, model and size of car I originally wanted to purchase but then again, I thought to myself, " at least he was being honest about issues with the original car I chose ''. I think its horrible that consumers are constantly pushed into contracts by unfair and dishonest business practices and there are no repercussions. I know I'm not the only consumer to be duped by XXXX XXXX. I read some of their reviews after the fact. I now read reviews EVERY time I have to make a purchase of something so expensive and even purchases not so expensive. I would be happy to see this account removed from my credit report. It is a huge stumbling block for my future. I wasn't going to report this but I ended up deciding that, I tried to work with both XXXX XXXX and Jefferson Capital to no avail and I deserve this removed from my report. I would like to thank you for your efforts in helping me bring a close to this nightmare. If you have any questions for me, I can be reached at XXXX. Thank you so much for your time. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Jefferson Capital XXXX

According to the debt collection agency, they state that this account is valid and I have repeatedly explained and even paid a portion of the debt agreed upon the amount back in XXXX, when they initially referred this debt as past due. I was told that during three weeks when I lived in XXXX XXXX, the " affiliated '' store for XXXX XXXX there, took my original cellular phone and sent it in for repairs as I was to have a local number there, and they were to fix the roaming charges and issues with my phone. Upon receiving my original phone back, they failed to mention that they did NOT in fact fix the roaming charges, nor my phone ( they just unplugged the roaming signal on my phone and returned it to me like it was fixed, I still got charged for the roaming charges and an additional " service contract '' that the representative stated was a release for temporary usage of a down-graded cellular phone till my original phone was returned ). So not only was I charged with my original contract monthly charge, plus the " supposedly fixed and deleted '' roaming charges, but also a whole other monthly contract with another company " supposedly affiliated '' with XXXX XXXX. They finally took away the " supposed '' other account, but it later was balled into the XXXX account that they keep trying to collect funds on. In XXXX, I moved to XXXX XXXX XXXX and got put on a family plan with my now husband, and in XXXX, I no longer had a phone or contract with XXXX XXXX due to a divorce from my ex-husband, whom charged and destroyed a cellular phone that was connected to that account, so between overcharged roaming/monthly fees, I also have an early disconnection of that cellular phone even though it was stated as destroyed in XXXX, the XXXX rep told us that the cost of the cellular phone was to be removed then, but has constantly been applied over and over again as a hidden fee for some charge that I know was not to be added to the contract. I've since been disputing this account several times over, and every time it comes back denied and the " disputed date '' is put in place for the " current balance due date '' making it appear as this account is current and not in fact over seven years old. I just want this account removed and my credit restored as this has been an ongoing fiasco that should have been resolved many, MANY years ago, but it is being reported as a delinquent charge-off on my credit history. I have argued and complained about my service and my monthly billing several times with XXXX XXXX, all the while they kept charging and OVER-CHARGING my account to appease their mistakes. After my divorce, I vowed to never again deal with XXXX XXXX or any companies " AFFILIATED '' with them for their uncontrollable addition of illegal and fraudulent charges to disguise the wrongful actions they have done to the customers and failure to fix or resolve the true issues at hand. All they cared about was getting paid for XXXX service, failing to be cooperative with their customers, and hiding wrongful charges as legitimate fees on the statements to COVER-UP the wrong doings they have done.

On XX/XX/2023, I requested that Jefferson Capital provide debt validation on an alleged debt owed from XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of XXXX, and the letter was sent certified mail. Within the letter I asked in totality the following documentations without exceptions as stated below in quotation marks. " I am responding to your contact about a debt you are trying to collect. You contacted me by mail, on XX/XX/2023, and identified the debt as XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$480.00}. As a result of this outreach, I am requesting you to provide me with a validation of the debt that was highlighted in the letter previously sent. This is not a refusal to pay, simply my notice that your claim is in dispute and that validation is demanded. ( 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) ). '' As a result of this dispute, I need more information regarding this debt. Provide verification and documentation that there is a valid basis for claiming that I am required to pay the debt to the current creditor. For example, can you provide a copy of the written agreement with my signature that created my original requirement to pay? Also, during this verification please supply me with the following information. The amount and age of the debt, including : State the amount of the debt when you obtained it, and when that was. If there have been any additional interest, fees or charges added since the last billing statement from the original creditor, provide an itemization showing the dates and amount of each added amount. In addition, explain how the added interest, fees or other charges are expressly authorized by the agreement creating the debt or are permitted by law. A signed contract ( i.e., HIPAA release form ) that bears my signature with the original creditor that transferred to your agency when purchasing the debt. Tell me when the creditor claims this debt became due and when it became delinquent. Identify the date of the last payment made on this account. Have you decided that this debt is within the statute of limitations applicable to it? Tell me when you think the statute of limitations expires for this debt, and how you determined that. Details about your authority to collect this debt. I would like more information about your firm before I discuss the debt with you. Does your firm have a debt collection license from my state? If not, say why not. If so, provide the date of the license, the name on the license, the license number, and the name, address and telephone number of the state agency issuing the license. If you are contacting me from a place outside my state, does your firm have a debt collection license from that place? If so, provide the date of the license, the name on the license, the license number, and the name, address and telephone number of the state agency issuing the license. '' On XX/XX/2023, I have not received these documents as requested yet I received notification that Jefferson Capital has reported this account on my credit report without proper validation of the debt belonging to me, thus violating my Consumer Rights.

XXXX : Disputed {$430.00} XXXX debt goes to collection, reported as of XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, assigned to collect, reports debt new as of XX/XX/XXXX When I learned of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX . collection, I began disputing the debt as to their date of reporting. Over the next two-plus years, they continued to report the debt as if it were started in XXXX. The credit bureaus allow the collection companies to report the date that they receive the debt, to be the new, " placed for collection date ''. By changing the reported date, it makes a debt appear as if is brand new. The original date was to remain on the credit report as well. This has not been the case. In my circumstance, it appears that XXXX XXXX may be using XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, as it's agent, to extend the SOL or force a settlement. Someone has found a work-around. If each time a collection is resold, the " placed for collection '' date is changed, the credit report will take a substantial hit. A debt in collection that is 3 years old, is now showing on your credit report as a new collection, dated last month. After XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX starting reporting the collection debt as if it were created three years after incurred, creditors began to decline loan applications. They were specific to the new collection. When I disputed the information, both the credit reporting agencies and the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX were adamant in keeping with the date. Over the past two-plus years, I have been unable to refinance or obtain a loan at any rate less than 75 %. Credit card advances are the lowest interest of my loans, however, it tends to increase my total card useage. Still, I have maintained a 100 % payment history with all of my credit obligations. My claim today is that, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, FRAUDULENTLY, " verified as accurate '', on multiple occassions, that they were the owner of the disputed debt, and during the period, THEY HAD IN FACT SOLD THE DEBT to another collection company. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX does not own the debt. I request that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and any and all information related to them, be removed from my credit history and, that any entity that was provided with my credit report information during the time that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was not the debt owner, be notified of their fraud. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has owned the debt prior to XX/XX/XXXX, and was the owner during the last disputes. Note : The current collection company, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, has sent several " reduced balance opportunities '' that state, " Our client has advised us that they are willing to satisfy your account for ... ... % of your total balance to due to satisfy your past balance total ''. The offer amounts vary with a 40 % of account balance reduced balance of {$170.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and another with a 30 % of account balance reduced balance of {$130.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. If this XXXX XXXX, XXXX does indeed own the debt, and the credit reporting agencies are to be relied upon, then this offer could never have even considered. End Note.

Jefferson Capital Systems has been harassing me for over a year to pay a debt I do not owe. I have responded by mail several times in the last year after receiving these notices. Jefferson Capital Systems has no record of me disputing this debt. They are not receiving my written notices and continue to mail me statements to pay or dispute it. The debt is {$2000.00} and was sent to this debt collector from XXXX for a cell phone service I never had. The debt collector Jefferson Capital Systems purchased the debt in XX/XX/XXXX. Since they purchase the debt they have been sending me letters by mail and calling me repeatedly multiple times a day. I called them today XX/XX/XXXX to report this debt as fraud. They told me records show this is a legitimate debt and offered me a pay for deletion amount of {$920.00} if paid by XX/XX/XXXX. I told the agent I would call XXXX to verify the legitimacy of the debt. I called XXXX and was told they could not disclose any information to me about the cell phone account since the debt for the account had been sold to the debt collector Jefferson Capital Systems along with all the records. The debt collector isn't providing me any information for me to validate this charge is legitimate. I have expressed to the debt collector and XXXX this account is fraudulent or completed without my consent. Both companies are unwilling to provide me the signatures, dates, times, or where the original order for services was placed with my consent or signature. This leads me to believe they do not have any records to confirm the debt is legitimate and not fraudulent. They continue to say it is legitimate without providing me proof. I am not willing to pay for a debt I am unable to confirm. I have had XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for my cell phones and use to use prepaid services before that through a government assistance program. I am concerned someone placed an online order for services using my information in XXXX of XXXX. I am not able to confirm if this happened since XXXX or Jefferson Capital System can not tell me where, when, and how the services were signed up for. If the order was placed online and without my consent and someone was paying the bill, this is a fraudulent purchase. I can provide proof that I was using a government funded cell phone in the year XXXX, I have a food stamp letter when I was using the assistance programs. I can also provide proof of how long I have had my XXXX XXXX. I have never provided a signature or entered a XXXX XXXX to make a purchase using my banking card. Please help me get this removed from my credit report or at least help me in getting the debt collector to give me proof this charge is valid, when and where was it signed up for, how was my information used, so that I can file a police report and start the process of identity theft. I am not sure since it was done back in XXXX what my options are to report to authorities due to statue of limitations but I will do whatever it takes to prove this account was not created or given consent by me. Thank you for your help!

This debt was from XXXX I ordered wi-fi and I live in XXXX XXXX CA I was not able to get good connection I returned their equipment ( this was at least 12 years ago. I was not aware that I had a contract and never received any bills. I was going through a horrible divorce x-spouse XXXX XXXX SS # XXXX ruined my credit by not paying credit cards and other debts that judge had ordered him to pay ( divorce lasted XX/XX/XXXX- XX/XX/XXXX ) I got XXXX and was in XXXX 30 days at XXXX XXXX Hospital XXXX Ca ) he cancelled my health insurance. I used to be a XXXX and financially dependent in our marriage until I had a child in XX/XX/XXXX then he became XXXX XXXX and verbally at the time I was a homemaker since the birth of my child. The only reason he had any finances was that while I was a XXXX I encouraged him to get a contractors license he did and I set him up in a XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) it became successful that is because I ran it, then after the birth of my child he suggested that I stay home that is why I became a XXXX. I became financially destitute during the divorce he did not pay the family monthly allowance the judge ordered him to pay. After the divorce I wanted to purchase a home and was denied a loan I checked my credit report it was ruined, I hired XXXX XXXX to help take off the credit that did not belong to me, they did an excellent job. I am now disputing a Jefferson Capital XX/XX/XXXX and that it originally came from XXXX which I do not owe any money the amount is {$310.00}. I have disputed this item with XXXX and they still are showing it as a collection debt which it should not be and even if it was my debt it should have expired it has been I did have an account with XXXX XXXX and the wi-fi did not work so I returned their equipment and never received a bill from XXXX and this was well over twelve years ago and would have expired. If I owed them money how come I am able to get an account for cellular with them acct # XXXX. I am filing a dispute with XXXX because instead of deleting this collection after I gave them the information I am sending you they updated the collection which decreased my Fico score. I apologize for such a long explanation. I hope you can help me because right now I am on a fixed income I only get SSI benefits {$940.00}. monthly ( I have bi-polar which escalated because going thru that horrible divorce ) I am trying to build up my credit XXXX said I could if I showed them my bank statement showing I pay rent, utilities and cellular bill. I have a payee for SSI and the bank account is in his name XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX the acct is XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX. If you can give that information to XXXX or tell me how I can ( they have been so unpleasant to deal with ) that I really do not want to contact them. Thank you very much for letting me file a complaint against them because I think they are not working effectively with consumers. Thanks again XXXX XXXX if you need to contact me my email is XXXX XXXX

Upon reviewing my credit report XX/XX/2016, I saw a collection account for Jefferson Capital Systems whom the original creditor of XXXX sold the account to for collections. I sent a letter to Jefferson CapitolSystems at the address listed on my credit report, which is supposed to be accurate information being reported to/by the credit bureaus. The letter was sent certified XX/XX/2016 and signed on XX/XX/2016 by XXXX XXXX XXXX. The letter stated that they had the required 30 days to verify and send me documentation of the accused debt that I was disputing as per FDCPA and FCRA. I waited the required 30 days from the date my letter was received at their office. I never received reply of verification of accused debt by Jefferson Capital Systems. Per FDCPA 807 ( 8 ) law, a collection agency is required to contact the credit bureaus on my behalf, and to make sure to add a sentence to my credit report withing 30 days, that says I disputed the negative item/information in question. THIS NEVER HAPPENED! They never complied to the credit bureau, and the credit bureau never marked my account as " disputed by consumer '' within the allotted time frame. This now constitutes a breach of Federal Law on Jefferson Capital Systems which is now liable to me for damages of up to {$1000.00} per occurrence. So, I sent letter 2 XX/XX/XXXX. I mailed the letter on XX/XX/2016. Jefferson Capital Systems received it on XXXX XXXX, 2016, signed again by XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was giving them another 30 days to verify the accused debt. Instead of that happening, Jefferson Capital Systems filed a suit against me. I received it XX/XX/2016. Now, over 60 days have gone by since my initial letter XX/XX/XXXX. Now that 's another 30 days of breaking the law and holding Jefferson Capital Systems liable for another fine of up to {$1000.00} for the second letter I sent to them XX/XX/XXXX, which they also ignored. This was still not my first initial contact from them directly, but through the court papers I received. Then a week after the lawsuit they filed against me, I receive a letter from them. Still no verification, just a call me and let 's talk letter. I did n't bother calling them. I felt I gave them plenty of time to respond to my two letters with documentation. I went to the courthouse to answer their bogus claim and file a countersuit against them. I guess their lawyer does n't feel they broke any laws. Surprisingly, I think they had the credit bureaus remove their account from my report because it is not there anymore. Guess they are trying to hide the fact that they never contacted the bureaus to have the dispute remark added in time, but I have credit reports from XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX showing that their account is on them, with no dispute remarks. They broke the law and they want me to pay for it. I have the letters I sent them, the credit reports and the signed certified cards to prove they broke the law. I received the response from the court and we are due to court on XX/XX/2016.

On XX/XX/XXXX I used the tool XXXX to view and print my credit report, at which point I noticed that the company Jefferson Capital Systems was reporting that I am indebted to them {$16000.00}. I have NEVER entered into any type of contract with Jefferson Capital Systems. On or around XX/XX/XXXX, I mailed Jefferson Capital Systems a certified letter requesting validation that I am contractually obligated to pay them. Said letter was to include : the name and address of the alleged creditor, name on file of the alleged debtor, alleged account #, amount of alleged debt, date that this alleged debt became payable and date of original charge-off or delinquency. Also, I asked whether the debt was assigned to a debt collector or purchased? As well as, the amount paid if it was purchased? Lastly, the agreement that bears the signature of the alleged debtor wherein he or she agreed to pay the creditor. On or around the end of XX/XX/XXXX, I received correspondence from Jefferson Capital Systems which included the following information : An account #, current creditor listing of Jefferson Capital Systems, JCS reference # which is the number listed on my credit report, the amount of debt listed as {$16000.00}. But, most surprisingly was the box listed debt description with the name " XXXX XXXX '', which is also the name listed as the original creditor on my credit report. I have NEVER entered into any type of agreement with XXXX XXXX. More importantly after several XXXX searches I have come to realize " XXXX XXXX '' as a company, DOES NOT EXIST. Since Jefferson Capital Systems was obviously refusing to delete the blatant error of reporting that I owe them any amount of money, I sent certified letters to the three credit bureaus : XXXX, XXXX and XXXX requesting that if they could not verify the legitimacy of the information they were reporting on my credit report, they needed to delete it. I have been monitoring my report for changes ; To date XXXX has deleted the reporting while XXXX is reporting that they have verified the information and it meets FCRA requirements. And, XXXX simply states the consumer disputes the reporting. Both agencies have also updated the original creditor to XXXX XXXX XXXX. The basis by which the reporting was probably deleted from XXXX is because XXXX XXXX XXXX reported on or around XX/XX/XXXX that the account had been paid and closed with 100 % of the payments for that account being on time. With 0 % being left to pay on the loan. I am hereby demanding that Jefferson Capital Systems as well as both XXXX and XXXX delete the inaccurate information that they are reporting on my credit report. According to FCRA regulations which state : If inaccurate information is discovered in a consumers file, the consumer reporting agency must examine the disputed information, usually within 30 days. If the inaccurate information can not be verified, the consumer reporting agency has responsibility to remove it.

XXXX, I unfortunately am not pleased with the response of Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. regarding my request for debt validation under 15 USC 1692g. I requested this information XX/XX/22 and they received the request XX/XX/22 through certified mail. They promptly responded XX/XX/22 with false and deceptive information. This false and deceptive information was they sent a deceptive form of a statement from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX basically as their " verification '' that I allegedly owed Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. for this alleged debt of {$530.00}. They also went on to say that since this deceptive form " verified '' not validated the alleged debt, they will continue to furnish this information to my consumer reports as long as the law permitted. They also said basically they would sue me for the debt, but since it was outside of the statue of limitations to sue, they cant. This I found to be abusive language as they tried to assert a power they never had. To also continue to willingly provide FALSE and INVALIDATED information to my consumer reports is abusive and misleading and also a defamation to my character as a consumer. The way that Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. treated me and my requests willingly and knowingly was unlawful and violating to me under 15 USC 1692d, using obscene and profane language which abused me as the reader stating false information of alleged debt collection as well as implicating they would have the right to sue me if it wasn't for the statue of limitations to sue someone on a debt. 15 USC 1692e, providing misleading and false representation of the alleged debt and the legal transfer of the alleged debt from XXXX XXXX to Jefferson Capital Systems, LLC., using deceptive means to attempt to collect the alleged debt from me, also the false implication that Jefferson Capital Systems could've sued me for the alleged debt implicating I committed a crime, 15 USC 1692f, by attempting to collect the alleged debt in its entirety without any authorization or agreement which created the alleged debt. 15 USC 1692g as not providing any validation of the alleged debt which I asked for in writing. 15 USC 1692j, as they furnished to me a deceptive form of a statement from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX to create a false belief that the alleged debt was validated for Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. to collect this alleged debt from me. Pursuant to 15 USC 1692k, I am demanding civil liability for these knowingly enacted violations of the law against me from Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. which they " respectfully declined '' to acknowledge or accept as a result of their unlawful practices against me as the consumer. I would like it to go on the record that due to the unlawful acts committed by Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. they have hindered my progress in life to be able to leverage my credit as a result of their furnishing of false information to my consumer reports.

On the morning of XX/XX/2019, I was startled and approached by a process server, who was standing near my door when I opened it. She informed me that I was being sued, and after briefly reviewing the formal legal pleading, I signed it and she left. After receiving the pleading, I reviewed it in its entirety and it seems that Jefferson Capital Systems, LLC., was suing me for a debt that I had absolutely no knowledge of. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, is not listed on any of my credit reports and the company they purportedly represent is showing a zero balance on my credit report. However, Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, is suing me for {$2400.00}. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, seems to have completely disregarded the federal law of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act [ Title 15, USC 1692f, 809 ( d ) ], which says communication in the form of a formal pleading in a civil action shall not be treated as an initial communication for purposes of subsection ( a ). This was, in fact, my initial communication with Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. According to Title 15, USC 1692f, 809 ( a ), of the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, I should have been given written notice, and an opportunity to identify, investigate and validate this debt, before being served with a legal proceeding. However, Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, made a conscious decision to disregard Title 15, USC 1692f, 809 ( a, b and c ) of the federal law and have me served, thereby taking away my right to challenge the validity of the debt. Additionally, the address documented for the defendant on the formal pleading is completely inaccurate and is not an address in XXXX XXXX, which is where I reside. The address documented, is, in fact, a XXXX XXXX address. I had 14 days to file an answer, in which I did and our initial hearing was heard on XX/XX/2019, and is still pending the outcome of an investigation. I also reached out to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, and was informed by one of their representatives that written notice was mailed to me, at the address on the legal proceedings, which is not my address, nor has it ever been. I presently have an active account ( with a small balance 17 % ) with the company in question and have previously had another account with them, that is now closed and was paid in full. Im also reaching out to the company ( XXXX ) to request detailed records of any/all transactions associated with the account in question, which is presently showing a zero balance on my credit report. Im also a victim of ID theft. My name is presently a part of the XXXX Data Breach, XXXX XXXX Security Incident, checks, other credit cards, along with the thousands of dollars being taken from the IRS in my name. The IRS finally cleared me, after a nearly year-long comprehensive investigation. I have police reports, an FTC file #, along with other pertinent documents from years of dealing with this matter.

Recently I received a collection letter from a law firm known as XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, claiming that they were trying to collect on a debt for a debt buyer known as Jefferson Capital Systems, Inc. There are issues that need to be rectified as there is no consistency pertaining to debt ownership. The following is the criteria that must be established in order to validate a collectible debt against me : 1 ) At no time was I ever notified that an old debt was purchased by Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. 2 ) The debt is so old that it no longer is posted on any of my credit reports, which means that at the very least the debt is over 7-years since it was last posted on a bureau update. 3 ) Any debt purchase in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts must show true copy ownership, as in this case XXXX XXXX XXXX did no such transfer, nor was I ever given any such proof. 4 ) The debt information was acquired through a debt pooling information program electronically, and thus this collection is a fraudulent transaction, being procured for collection by a licensed law firm that should be investigated by the Massachusetts Department of Bar Overseers. 5 ) The law firm of XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. need to cease and desist on these types of action, especially to a minority person such as myself, being 50 % XXXX and 50 % XXXX. I believe that I am being discriminated against and targeted. I recently had two similar actions dismissed in the civil courts in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and this collection is also illegal. 6 ) This collection is illegal, and XXXX XXXX XXXX is in violation of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. 7 ) My file must be purged and all personal information must be deleted, along with XXXX XXXX XXXX recalling this debt information immediately. 8 ) Any and all references to this account must be deleted on all credit bureaus. 9 ) XXXX XXXX XXXX must be investigated by all credit bureaus, and this activity on erroneous debt transfers must be terminated against minorities and consumers of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts permanently. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has an enormous amount of complaints filed with the CFPB already. As of XX/XX/2019, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has received over 1,700 complaints related to the debt collection practices of Jefferson Capital Systems/CL Holdings LLC. Examples of common complaints against Jefferson include trying to collect a debt not owed and improper communication tactics. The following two real-world examples of complaints against Jefferson Capital Systems illustrate these types of alleged violations. Consumer alleges attempts to collect a debt not owed Jefferson Capital System said I owe XXXX XXXX After reviewing my recent credit report I contacted the company letting them know this not my debt This Collection action must be pulled out of circulation immediately!!!

On XX/XX/2022 I sent a Conditional Acceptance Cease & Desist to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC ( " JCS '' ) detailing their actions harming my consumer reports. I have never given JCS my permission to use my consumer reports as is required under 15 USC 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) which states " In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates ''. I also requested proof of that written permission from the company in the event I made a mistake, the company failed to produce any documentation to show they have my written permission. This is negligence and a clear violation of a federal statute. I received documentation dated for XX/XX/2022, a response was sent further providing proof that the company has no original contract, nor any proof of my written permission to use my consumer reports. This response from JCS indicated that the company continues to harass me via my consumer reports after failing to provide proof that I gave them permission. This is a violative business practice when a company believes they do not need to have a contract to defame any individuals character. Federal law supersedes any " company policy '' and in the eyes of the court, federal statutes are the mandatory authority. Additionally, this company did not communication with me prior to sharing my personal information with any non affiliated third party. 15 USC 6802 ( b ) states very clearly JCS is 100 % required to communicate with me PRIOR to sharing any information with a nonaffiliated third party. JCS failed to communicate with me prior to doing so. Not only is this company defaming my character without consent, they are also reporting inaccurately between the credit reporting agencies and have not labeled the accounts as disputed which is a requirement under 15 USC 1681s-2 ( 2 ) & ( 3 ). They were notified directly and via the CRA 's that the information was inaccurate and the response from the company was these accounts are " verified ''. If the company is telling the CRAs that both reports, that are showing different and inaccurate information is accurate... the company is providing false and misleading information. Precedent has already been established by the The United States of Appeals, Ninth Circuit, No XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that the reporting company is 100 % responsible for how the information reports. Lastly, Congress as already stated in the FCRA that inaccurate information must be removed from a consumers credit report. All the essential elements are present for not only defamation of character but extreme negligence on behalf of JCS. Each of these violations are subject to penalties as described in 15 USC 1681n & 15 USC 1681o and as seen from previous cases of a similar nature, the Plaintiff has also been awarded punitive damages when companies have no permissible purpose. One look at PACER will show that this company has a long history of harassing consumers.

I have never received any correspondence or communication from Jefferson Capital I dont have any kind of contracts or accounts with them. Upon further investigation they are a third party debt collector that is not licensed as such in South Carolina. They are listed as a XXXX XXXX which is defined as this : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX strongly suggests a potential applicant submit a detailed business plan as described in the new application checklist. This should be done prior to applying in XXXX to determine the correct licensing jurisdiction. Who is required to have this license? An entity that is making consumer loans or is taking assignments of and undertaking direct collection of payments from or enforcement of rights against debtors arising from supervised loans. A supervised loan means a consumer loan in which the rate of the loan finance charge exceeds twelve percent per year as determined according to the provisions on the loan finance charge for consumer loans ( Section XXXX XXXX ). If a website will be used to take supervised loan applications or process payments electronically for supervised loans, a separate supervised lender website license will be required in addition to the license for the home office. A separate application request and fee will be required for each website. They are a debt collector company and fall under the -Who does not need this license section : ( a ) Mortgage lender as defined in Section 37-22-110 ( 30 ) ; or ( b ) Retail sales contract. An entity performing retail sales transactions/ contracts is not required to and will not be issued a supervised lenders license. See Title 37 Chapter 2 on the SCCPC.

Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX, I am writing to file a complaint against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC for alleged violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) in relation to an account they claim I owe. I have reason to believe that the account is inaccurate, and that Jefferson Capital Systems has failed to provide adequate verification of the debt, as required by law. Specifically, they have not provided me with a copy of the legally binding contract entered into at the conception of the debt, or any documentation of the original contract with the creditor, XXXX XXXX, that shows the transfer of ownership of the alleged debt to Jefferson Capital Systems. They also have not provided any proof of accurate legal debt assignment, payment history of the alleged debt, the correct original date of first default, or any communication of the payment address of the original creditor. Specifically, Jefferson Capital Systems has violated the following U.S.C. codes : 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and ( B ) - Failing to provide verification of the debt upon my request 1681e ( b ) - Reporting inaccurate information on my credit report 1692e ( 2 ) ( A ) - Attempting to collect an alleged debt without a legal contract 1692e ( 5 ) - Failing to provide the payment history of the alleged debt 1692g ( a ) - Failing to provide the original contract of the alleged debt and any mention of transfer of ownership 1692g ( b ) - Failing to communicate proof of accurate legal debt assignment 1692g ( c ) - Forced/coerced admission of liability Furthermore, I believe that Jefferson Capital Systems has been trying to collect an alleged debt without providing any of the above-mentioned documentation, but with the intention of hurting my XXXX XXXX and stifling my financial success ( which amounts to passive harassment, coercion, and abuse ). According to the FDCPA and FCRA, it is the responsibility of the collection agency to provide all the requested information and proof mentioned above, and to report the account while indicating the accurate date of initial default, which provides the timeline for reporting. But Jefferson Capital Systems has failed to do so. Because of this failure, I am citing the legal responsibilities of a collection agency to the consumer to report the accurate date of initial default which provides the timeline for reporting. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, and that the XXXX XXXX XXXX take appropriate action to hold Jefferson Capital Systems accountable for their alleged violations, as per U.S.C. code violations. I also request that the collections account be removed from my credit report and that any future attempts to report it be prohibited without the provision of all the information and proof requested above. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I am writing to alert the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau of a collections company that is violating my rights and not using proper communication methods when showing up on my credit report. I need the CFPB office to please look into my case. This JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM accounts with a balance of {$3400.00} and {$2400.00} has just popped up on my credit report without ever communicating to me. There was no written letter to me or calls to me so I can explain that they have the wrong person. They have recently just popped up on my credit report and I am not familiar with how they got my information or how they have my social security number. I do not owe this company and I Right now I am getting an alert on my XXXX XXXX and credit monitoring service saying my credit score has dropped tremendously. I can furnish the images of this alert showing the collections company. They are hurting me financially and this is a really big issue. To my understanding they must be compliant with laws and regulations that say they must write the consumer within days of the first communication. They are using my credit to communicate with me yet they NEVER wrote me before. If they don't write me then how could send me a right to dispute or explain my rights? Please review the original paperwork for this account. I request they send me a copy of this information to my address. I also request the original contract signed showing my signature long with all other pages of the original agreement. I am suffering damages because of this error. I have been a victim of ID theft before and I monitor my financial affairs very closely. To me this seems like an instance of debt parking that I read about on the FTC website. The Federal Trade Commission has taken action against debt collection companies that allegedly placed bogus or highly questionable debts onto consumers credit reports to coerce them to pay the debts. They label this as DEBT PARKING. The Federal Trade Commission recently took action against a Missouri collection company and its owners, alleging that they collected more than {$24.00} million from consumers, largely by placing bogus or highly questionable debts on their credit reports. The defendants used this illegal debt parking to coerce people to pay debts they didnt owe or didnt recognize, XXXX XXXX XXXX director of the F.T.C.s bureau of consumer protection , said in prepared remarks about the agencys settlement with the company, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I DO NOT HAVE ANY BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS COMPANY and I am concerned they have unethically acquired my information and they are acting unethically with their debt collections. There is a process in law that protects consumers from these illegal actions. This account is lowering my credit score and if I am declined for anything, I will seek financial remedy by talking to a fdcpa lawyer.

I received a bill in XXXX for a charge of {$170.00} in my name XXXX XXXX. I no longer remember the company. I contacted the company at the time. A male representative could not confirm a claim of debt by said company and informed me they had no such record. Therefore could not send me an invoice of billing. I assumed it is a billing created on the dark web to sell my personal information. I waited for said charges to show up on my credit report. Jefferson Capital contacted me by mail XX/XX/2023. XX/XX/2023 they showed up on my credit report, claiming a debt of {$170.00}. They note the original debtor to XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I finally found company online and called number given online store I talked with a XXXX and a XXXX. The informed it maybe registrations cost. I asked them to send billing. They claimed they had no billing invoice on file in my name they could send. I asked them to send a letter verifying our conversation to email : XXXX. I have yet to receive email. Jefferson Capital gave me an email to which to give correspondence. XXXX given to me XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX No one I talked to seem to have access to email or able to interact professionally in business communication to clarify or rectify issues that maybe in dispute. Jefferson Capital is unable to verify the existence of their account number XXXX or Reference Number XXXX. Recently someone has been tampering with my credit report and credit card information. I have had issues with my email. Dont know if there is a connection. Yet it came during the time Jefferson Capital began communication with me an attempt to just verify my personal information and identity. Enclosed is website information : https : //www.ftc.gov/legal-library/browse/cases-proceedings/062-3212-compucredit-corporation-jefferson-capital-systems-llc XXXX XXXX XXXX The main numbers I contacted regarding this matter : No one seems to be able to produce a invoice of billing. XXXX XXXX XXXX I no longer contact creditors unless I can identify the debt or can trace the company VIA internet claiming a debt, because I been a victim of too much fraud and identity theft. I no longer pay any claims unless the company can produce reasonable explanation of claims. I have notice, bad artificial persons want to claim billing 5 years after business has been completed. I assume because they understand a household may not keep infinite records. It is time consuming finding said records. Or worse an employee could misuse personal information given in the course of doing business. Thats why I pay in full for common purchases that may represent leisure. I may have never been indebted to {$170.00} to XXXX. I no longer recognize the name as being a company with which I have even done business. It is plausible. Employees can not verify any transactional information in writing that accrued an alleged debt.

I am writing to file complaint against JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS for their violations of consumer protection laws and misrepresentation of information on my credit report. I request your assistance in addressing these issues and taking appropriate action against JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS : JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS has failed to supply proof under the doctrine of estoppel by silence, as established in the case of Engelhardt v. Gravens ( MO ) XXXX XXXX XXXX. Based on this legal principle, I presume that no proof of the alleged debt exists, and therefore, the debt itself does not exist. I requested that JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS provide me with the completed original contracts, including all endorsements and assignments, pertaining to the account they have reported on my credit report. In the absence of such evidence, I urge JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS to promptly remove all inaccurate or unverifiable information related to the account from my credit report. Furthermore, I request that JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS ceases reporting this disputed information to any third parties immediately. JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS has violated 15 U.S. Code 1692e - False or misleading representations. Specifically, they have committed an act of reporting inaccurate information to the credit bureaus regarding alleged charged-off account, falsely representing them as open balances from the original creditor. It is important to note that charge-off debts must be reported to the IRS on Form 1099-C. Failure to comply with this requirement results in noncompliance with applicable tax laws, rendering such debts ineligible for assignment to a debt collector. Therefore, I request that JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS provide me with the completed original contract, including all endorsements and assignments, pertaining to the accounts they have reported on my credit report, as well as the contract I have with JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS. If they are unable to provide this documentation, I insist that all inaccurate or unverifiable information related to these accounts be promptly removed from my credit report. Additionally, I demand that JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS cease the reporting of this disputed information to any third parties without delay. I want to bring to your attention that JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS have shown a pattern of violating consumer protection laws by purchasing accounts that have been charged off and cancelled by Form 1099-C. I kindly request your immediate attention to this matter and a thorough investigation of the reported violations by JEFFERSON CAPTIAL SYSTEMS. I expect that appropriate actions will be taken to rectify these issues, hold the company accountable, and ensure compliance with consumer protection laws. I appreciate your prompt assistance in resolving this matter. Thank you for your attention to this complaint. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I am writing to file a complaint against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC for alleged violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) in relation to an account they claim I owe. I have reason to believe that the account is inaccurate, and that Jefferson Capital Systems has failed to provide adequate verification of the debt, as required by law. Specifically, they have not provided me with a copy of the legally binding contract entered into at the conception of the debt, or any documentation of the original contract with the creditor, XXXX, that shows the transfer of ownership of the alleged debt to Jefferson Capital Systems. They also have not provided any proof of accurate legal debt assignment, payment history of the alleged debt, the correct original date of first default, or any communication of the payment address of the original creditor. Specifically, Jefferson Capital Systems has violated the following U.S.C. codes : 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and ( B ) - Failing to provide verification of the debt upon my request 1681e ( b ) - Reporting inaccurate information on my credit report 1692e ( 2 ) ( A ) - Attempting to collect an alleged debt without a legal contract 1692e ( 5 ) - Failing to provide the payment history of the alleged debt 1692g ( a ) - Failing to provide the original contract of the alleged debt and any mention of transfer of ownership 1692g ( b ) - Failing to communicate proof of accurate legal debt assignment 1692g ( c ) - Forced/coerced admission of liability Furthermore, I believe that Jefferson Capital Systems has been trying to collect an alleged debt without providing any of the above-mentioned documentation, but with the intention of hurting my credit report and stifling my financial success ( which amounts to passive harassment, coercion, and abuse ). According to the FDCPA and FCRA, it is the responsibility of the collection agency to provide all the requested information and proof mentioned above, and to report the account while indicating the accurate date of initial default, which provides the timeline for reporting. But Jefferson Capital Systems has failed to do so. Because of this failure, I am citing the legal responsibilities of a collection agency to the consumer to report the accurate date of initial default which provides the timeline for reporting. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, and that appropriate action to hold Jefferson Capital Systems accountable for their alleged violations, as per U.S.C. code violations. I also request that the collections account be removed from my credit report and that any future attempts to report it be prohibited without the provision of all the information and proof requested above. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I am writing to alert the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau of a collections company that is violating my rights and not using proper communication methods when showing up on my credit report. I need the CFPB office to please look into my case. This JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM account with a balance of {$240.00} has just popped up on my credit report without ever communicating to me. There was no written letter to me or calls to me so I can explain that they have the wrong person. They have recently just popped up on my credit report and I am not familiar with how they got my information or how they have my social security number. I do not owe this company and I Right now I am getting an alert on my XXXX XXXX and credit monitoring service saying my credit score has dropped tremendously. I can furnish the images of this alert showing the collections company. They are hurting me financially and this is a really big issue. To my understanding they must be compliant with laws and regulations that say they must write the consumer within days of the first communication. They are using my credit to communicate with me yet they NEVER wrote me before. If they don't write me then how could send me a right to dispute or explain my rights? Please review the original paperwork for this account. I request they send me a copy of this information to my address.

As a federally protected consumer, I am highly disappointed and unsatisfied with Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. My name is XXXX XXXX and I am making this complaint against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC for committing identity theft. I have no recollection of authorizing or giving Jefferson Capital Systems any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt that claim I owe. I am fully aware that, in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are equally liable for violations pursuant to 15 USC 1692e ( 12 ). It seems as though this account has been turned over to innocent purchasers for value, when that is a very false and misleading representation. I have not validated any alleged debt with Jefferson Capital Systems and my failure to dispute the validity of this alleged debt shall not be construed as an admission of liability. As of XX/XX/2022, I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, giving Jefferson Capital Systems any right to collect on this alleged debt. I have also never received any documentation requesting validation from Jefferson Capital Systems before they decided to commit multiple federal violations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report ; including, but not limited to, 15 USC 1692d ( 4 ), which the FTC recognizes as DEBT PARKING. If Jefferson Capital Systems can not provide me with proof, such as a tracking number, that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the consumer, prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently and unauthorized fraudulent account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 15 USC 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, all collection activity and communication expect through mail to above address, of this and any alleged debts until Jefferson Capital Systems can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. This includes the furnishing of any information to any credit reporting agencies. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and Jefferson Capital Systems continues its collection efforts, I will file for arbitration and Jefferson Capital Systems will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

My credit reports with the three major credit bureaus contain accounts that should not be listed according to the wording and intent of 42 USC 407, which reads : 407. Assignment of benefits ( a ) In general The right of any person to any future payment under this subchapter shall not be transferable or assignable, at law or in equity, and none of the moneys paid or payable or rights existing under this subchapter shall be subject to execution, levy, attachment, garnishment, or other legal process, or to the operation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law. ( b ) Amendment of section No other provision of law, enacted before, on, or after April 20, 1983, may be construed to limit, supersede, or otherwise modify the provisions of this section except to the extent that it does so by express reference to this section. ( c ) Withholding of taxes Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit withholding taxes from any benefit under this subchapter, if such withholding is done pursuant to a request made in accordance with section 3402 ( p ) ( 1 ) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 by the person entitled to such benefit or such persons representative payee. ( Aug. 14, 1935, ch. 531, title II, 207, 49 Stat. 624 ; Aug. 10, 1939, ch. 666, title II, 201, 53 Stat. 1362, 1372 ; Pub. L. 9821, title III, 335 ( a ), Apr. 20, 1983, 97 Stat. 130 ; Pub.

Therefore, everything derogatory about my credit that is reported by any agency other than various student loan lenders should be removed, as they are expressly not " assignable, at law or in equity '' and may not " be subject to execution, levy, attachment, garnishment, or other legal process, or to the operation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law.

The others correctly reflect the XX/XX/XXXX. Finally, one last reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2019 for {$5000.00} has been on appeal in various court 's since before it was first reported, the most current being the New Mexico Supreme Court, Case No. XX/XX/3569, which is in abeyance pending the decision of another appellant 's similar appeal. As my case has been and remains on appeal, this entry should be deleted entirely.

I took out a student loan with XXXX XXXX during my tenure in school from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX, total amount close to around 15K. After graduation I was struggling to make ends meet with no job and a new baby. I called XXXX XXXX several times and sent in paperwork indicating I was not working. I was placed on deferment, respectively. I began working in XX/XX/XXXXand called XXXX XXXX and was advised that I needed to stay in deferment vs income driven repayment plan since my income was so low. I was provided unclear information and was told I would be contacted via mail. From year to year I would call and update my information and finances and would continue to be told I made under a certain threshold and to stay in forbearance. Around XX/XX/XXXX ( my birthday ), I called and my loan was no longer with them and I was directed to XXXX. Same as XXXX XXXX I would call and ask to be set up on a plan and I would receive the same information. It was at the time that I wanted to begin a payment plan as I was working directly in XXXX XXXX and was informed that I could pay on student loans under public service loan forgiveness and be forgiven after a certain time period. I would be given the run around and was even told at one point that my loans had been paid in full. I would always ask for documentation and nothing has been sent to date, even today. Recently, my grandmother gave me a call and I was informed that the Sheriffs office came to her home looking for me. I did some research and found that XXXX XXXX XXXX, whom I knew nothing about is sueing me and XXXX XXXX is the contact for for unpaid student loans and this is the first that I have heard of me being delinquent at all. I have no knowledge of either company until 5 business day ago. My student was not handled properly and I do not understand why I was never contacted. I was planning to go back to school and now this is all shocking and disheartening. Even today when I call XXXX they say my student loans are paid in full. How could that be? Now I am afraid of what will happen to me and my family as this lawyer is saying that I owe {$20000.00} and I must pay now and there is nothing that I can do about it. Why didnt XXXX perform their due diligence to give me a call and place under a repayment plan. I do not feel that XXXX XXXX nor XXXX performed their due diligence to ensure that I was treated fairly as I wanted to be on income driven repayment and then public service repayment plan and they continuously recommended forbearance based off my low income. Please be advised that I have a new address however providing my old address as the law firm is making threats and I believe this can be handled without them having my new address. My email address and telephone number are up to date.

On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I received a phone call from my payroll department stating that Jefferson Capital Systems will be receiving a portion of my wages through a garnishment. I filed a complaint with the XXXX against JCS for garnishing my wages for payment on a debt I have no knowledge of. In my complaint, I asked for the following to verify the debt : 1. Full original account number 2.Date original account opened 3. Any written agreement between myself & the original creditor stating that I agreed to pay the original debt. 4. Consumer address at which original account was opened 5. Date of 1st delinquency 6. Itemized calculation of alleged debtI received a response from JCS 's attorney, XXXX XXXX, on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX stating that he had sent a letter with all of the above requested information, and stated that the debt was a defaulted Credit Card account issued by XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. He stated that the account was opened on XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and was charged off on XXXX XXXX, XXXX with a default balance of {$1500.00}. I have several issues with the information provided in his response. 1. As of XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I still have not received any documentation from XXXX XXXX or JCS verifying the validity of this debt, as requested in my first correspondence with them, and as was stated by XXXX XXXX was mailed to me. 2. I have never had a credit card account with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX. 3. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I was XXXX YEARS OLD, and could not have legally signed a contract or opened a credit card account. ( My wife is also listed jointly on this account, and she would have been XXXX years old at the time it was opened. ) On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I responded to XXXX XXXX stating my concerns and again stating I had not received any verification of the debt and therefore, believed the alleged debt to be invalid. At this time, JCS had received {$800.00} from me, and I requested the money be returned to me and the judgment be dismissed or deemed satisfied. On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I received a response from XXXX XXXX stating that JCS believed the debt was mine, and would continue to garnish my wages. He directed me to call XXXX XXXX, an account manager, to discuss a resolution that would be satisfactory to both parties. To date, JCS has taken {$1800.00} from my paychecks. In the documentation provided to me by XXXX XXXX, the original debt was {$1500.00}. However, JCS is garnishing my wages in excess of {$3900.00}. ( As stated by my payroll department. ) I do n't believe this debt is mine, but I am being forced to pay it! I do n't believe I can resolve this without help. My first attempt to resolve this through the XXXX was unsuccessful. I am hopeful the CFPB has the resources to get to the bottom of this and help me!

I received a letter from my ex husband on XX/XX/XXXX, but the letter was dated XX/XX/XXXX from a company name Jefferson Capital Ststems LLC stating they represented another company by the name of XXXX XXXX Jefferson Capital Systems LLC is attempting to collect {$590.00} for XXXX XXXX . I wrote this company Jefferson Capital Systems LLC in XXXX XXXX, MN on XX/XX/XXXX disputing the alleged debt with XXXX In the letter Jefferson Capital Systems LLC states that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to dispute the alleged debt but on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I received a notification from XXXX that a new account was added to my XXXX and XXXX credit report from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC. Jefferson Capital Systems LLC has practice unethical unfair debt practices and misrepresented what their XX/XX/XXXX letter stated that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to contact their office in writing which I did but this company jumped the XXXX and still reported this alleged debt to the credit reporting agencies prior to the deadline they set. I first heard of XXXX XXXX back in XXXX when I saw some charges on my account and I disputed them with my bank and the funds were reversed. I stated in XXXX and XXXX to another company called XXXX XXXX and to the actual company XXXX this is not my debt and I do not owe this debt. In XXXX and XXXX XXXX actually placed inaccurate information to my credit report but back then the amount was {$1200.00} and it was disputed then and retracted both times. But now again in XXXX another company is alleging again that I owe XXXX XXXX but for a lesser amount. For years, I have been battling with random hacking of my email accounts, lost or stolen credit card & debit cards. I closed my bank account back then because I felt they could not keep my money safe and it was too much happening. I am now divorced and longer go by XXXX as I have indicated in my letter to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC. Again, I am disputing this alleged debt, this is not my debt and I do not owe this debt. I am requesting that Jefferson Capital Systems LLC remove any negative information from my credit report immediately because clearly Jefferson Capital Systems LLC is continuing to practice unfair debt collection as they did in 2008 FTC Matter/File Number 062-3212 ( Federal Trade Commission v. Compu Credit Corporation and Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC ) . I have included all my documentation of all the hacking and fraud I have faced since XXXX. Even if I owed this debt the statue of limitations has ran in Texas and California where the original debtor is located per the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Also, as my right, I have no desire to work with Jefferson Capital Systems LLC and I dispute these claims.

I recently reviewed my credit report from XXXX, XXXX XXXX. Unfortunately, I saw that you have recently began to report me 30 days late on this account on XX/XX/2022. I have previous credit reports from the above mentioned agencies that reflect my account accurately, as paid on time. I never received notice that you were going to insert negative data on my credit report, as you are required by the FCRA I contacted JEFFERSON CAPITAL regarding this debit and that I don't owe this and had a very default time.. FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 7 ) Negative Information ( A ) Notice to Consumer Required ( i ) In general. If any financial institution that extends credit and regularly and in the ordinary course of business furnishes information to a consumer reporting agency described in section 603 ( p ) furnishes negative information to such an agency regarding credit extended to a consumer, the financial institution shall provide a notice of such furnishing of negative information, in writing, to the consumer. ( ii ) Notice effective for subsequent submissions. After providing such notice, the financial institution may submit additional negative information to a consumer reporting agency described in section 603 ( p ) with respect to the same transaction, extension of credit, account, or customer without providing additional notice to the customer. ( B ) Time of Notice ( i ) In general. The notice required under subparagraph ( A ) shall be provided to the customer prior to, or no later than 30 days after, furnishing the negative information to a consumer reporting agency described in section 603 ( p ). ( ii ) Coordination with new account disclosures. If the notice is provided to the customer prior to furnishing the negative information to a consumer reporting agency, the notice may not be included in the initial disclosures provided under section 127 ( a ) of the truth in Lending Act. Reporting inaccurate information is also a violation of the FCRA. I first contacted the above mentioned consumer reporting agency about the mistake. They sent me a letter stating you verified the information. How is this possible? I would like you to actually look into my account history this time and not just send an automated verified response! After doing so you will see that I was not 30 days late on XX/XX/2022, The FCRA allows for damages of {$1000.00} per violation. So far you have violated my rights three times Twice by never notifying me and once for reporting inaccurate information. I could surely use the {$30000.00} bucks since the interest rates on my other credit cards raised due to you error, not to mention the priceless cost of my time writing these letters.

I received a call from Jefferson Capital Systems on the XXXX of XXXX, 2021. After returning the call and confirming my information ( name and last 4 of social ), they informed me that I have a debt from XXXX that is around {$1400.00}. I was confused by this and while on the phone I checked my XXXX accounts and saw everything was in good standing and had no credit card with XXXX. After confirming on my end, I asked to validate the debt. The representative then ask if an address was mine and after they told me, I immediately knew this was in regards to a business account that belong to a corporation that I was no longer apart of. I informed the representative that this was a business account with XXXX but the representative kept telling me that they only see my name and social but no business information. I was even told the email address on file which belongs to the business Im not apart of. I then spoke to a supervisor who told me the same thing before being disconnected ( not sure if the line disconnected or if I was hung up on ). I called back and ask to speak to a supervisor who I explained that this belonged to a business account that is not under my name. I requested that they obtained the information from XXXX but I was told they cant ( or probably refused too, I do not know if they are allowed to contact the company they bought the debt from after the purchase was made ). I asked to do a debt validation but they asked for my address, which I initially refused and was told it would be open but I would need to call back to update the address on file. I called XXXX the moment I hung up and was told I would need to call JCS and speak to them about the debt and they couldnt be of any assistance. I spoke to an attorney who informed me to update the address on file so they could send what they have if they validated the debt before raising further dispute. On the XXXX, I called and spoke to a representative where I updated the address and was told by the representative that they will cease collection and will not report the account. Today, XXXX of XXXX, I receive a call from them and after returning the call the representative stated the same thing that I owe the amount as stated above and noted that I did raise a dispute to this. I again disputed it as this account is not a personal account but a business account. On top of that, I have not received any information regarding this debt to the address I provided from the call on the XXXX and that as the debt is under dispute ( or debt validation ) they are not to continue to collect the debt until the debt is verified, which it is clear they have not verified.

Hello ; how can you be late 120 days on collections account for {$800.00}? Isn't the collection account by default late and past due? This is a violation of FCRA and it's causing this account to illegally re-aged. I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to. In the event you transfer this account to an attorney without providing proof of contract, and proving your claim, he/she will be immediate reported to the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX for code of ethics violations.

Specifically, you failed to validate a debt at my request, which is a FDCPA violation and you continued to report a disputed debt to the Credit Bureaus : another FCRA violation. Not only have you ignored my prior requests for validation of debt ( proof attached : receipt copies or letter copies ) but you continue to report this debt to the credit bureaus causing damage to my character. This letter will again request that you follow the FDCPA and please provide the following validation of debt request : -Proof of your right to own/collect this alleged debt -Balance claimed including all fees, interest and penalties -Contract bearing my personal signature As you may be aware, " Estoppel by Silence '' legally means that you had a duty to speak but failed to do so therefore, that must mean you agree with me that this debt is false.

I have been having a really tough time with XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card. I had two accounts with them which went in to collections and eventually charged off. Upon checking my credit I have been trying to pay off all my debt. I contacted them XX/XX/2020 to try to pay what I owe them and they informed me that there collection agency is Jefferson Capital and I needed to contact them first to pay and then Jefferson capital would report the two payments to them and they would update the accounts on my credit report to a XXXX balance. I paid Jefferson Capital that same day settlejng the debt for less than total amount which satisfies the debt. Jefferson Capital then emailed me two letters stating both cards have been satisfied and now have a XXXX balance and they would be letting XXXX know and they would update the credit. A few days passed and I noticed XXXX updates one of the accounts with the amount of the payment and still showed a remaining balance which is not what I was told would be done. I called XXXX yesterday and the rep told me they only show one payment being made and there was still a balance and that Jefferson capital hasnt notified them that what I paid settled the account. They never saw the second payment at all and they were made the same day. I called Jefferson capital back and after talking to a supervisor she informed me that XXXX sold them one of the accounts and that is why they only see one payment on there and that they were not obligated to report the other payment to them. She also said they already notified them the other debt was settled. This is all completely insane at this point. Im being given the runaround at every angle. I have settled both accounts which they are both reported on on my credit report by XXXX XXXX XXXX but if Jefferson capital will not notify them property then the debt will continue to be reported on my credit from XXXX with. Balance when that information is incorrect. I called XXXX XXXX back several times and they were being very rude to me and one person even hung up in my face. This is very upsetting. These are the only negative marks in my credit and no one seems to be helping me. XXXX shouldnt even be reporting one of the accounts at all since it was sold and they should be deleted. At the very least the other account needs to be updated to XXXX balance because the debt has been paid but they are not doing things properly and this is not right. After I paid both accounts they asked in that same phone call if I wanted to open new accounts with XXXX and after all this there is no way in XXXX that would happen.

I received notification through credit monitoring that a debt collection from Jefferson Capital Systems was reported on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$700.00}. It originated from XXXX. I called the company and learned it was from XXXX XXXX, had been turned over to debt collection in XXXX of XXXX, and was being pursued for collection with a letter having been issued in XX/XX/XXXX. They can not tell me what the debt is for aside from a phone number not used by any member of our household unless it was a hotspot number. I called XXXX XXXX on a local level. The manager could not, nor would assist. I called XXXX XXXX 's billing department. They could not, nor would assist, aside from providing me with this telephone number for resolution. I called Jefferson Capital Systems again. No assistance, but did file the account as disputed. I've also disputed with XXXX and XXXX. I left XXXX XXXX due to billing issues that arose from their change in billing systems in XXXX. It was a widespread issue that affected many. One month your balance is {$0.00}, the next {$900.00} and overdue. I resolved the issue in store, went straight to XXXX with a {$0.00} balance from XXXX XXXX and terminated my services. The store manager was directly involved and knew I was terminating the account due to the lack of reliability and best business practices of the company. I've also reported to the XXXX. Note, the company 's score is 1.9 of 5 with hundreds of complaints registered. After six years of having no issues, no contact, and no supporting evidence of the debt owed, I believe this is just shy of criminal behavior. I would like this removed from my credit report immediately. Not listed as a charge off. Dismissed. Erased, Gone. The staff of both the collection agency and company are of no assistance and can provide no details. Again, the contract was terminated in XXXX after having been a customer since XXXX. I have maintained the same cell number throughout the years, and continue through today. Also, I will note that during Covid, I was being called and harassed by credit card collections for accounts not even in my name. They were calling me due to an old residence that my husband and his cousin had shared in the past. Because companies could not reach the cousin 's wife, they were calling myself and my son for information. I've never even met this woman. It makes this recent collection all the more suspicious and unnerving. Therefore, I've locked my credit in fear of fraudulent activity. This is impacting my ability to apply for a job. Quick resolution is of the essence.

On XX/XX/XXXX I reached out to a representative from Jefferson Capital System and set up a pay to delete. Per our conversation ( XXXX ) and XXXX ( supervisor ) stated they would be able to do a pay to delete, when I specifically asked XXXX to send me a email stating they would be able to provide a pay to delete she said they do not use emails but they can go ahead and mail me one. I let them know that I need a letter of proof they will delete it before I can make a payment. XXXX transferred me to her manager and her manager ( XXXX ) told me she will send a secured email with the payment agreement INCLUDING THE PAY TO DELETE. I set up the payment for the XXXX for the full amount and verbally verified were doing a pay to delete and it will state that on the email multiple times. Once I receive the email I log into the desktop and set my account up with them and the payment arrangement is set up as XX/XX/XXXX balance will show PAID IN FULL. I called Jefferson Capital on XX/XX/XXXX to speak to the same representatives to see why I do not have that letter like we agreed on. When I spoke to both representatives they stated they never said such a thing and that they can not send out emails/letters for a agreement of pay to delete because they send it after. I informed both of them that I want in writing that once the payment is made in full they will agree to delete it off my records and that way I will go ahead and have documentation supporting my claim in case it does not get removed. After that both reps said they do not do that per the company policy and that they will remove the collection AFTER I make a payment and they will not inform me until AFTER they remove it via mailed letter. I informed both reps that this is lying to consumers, telling them this information and then not giving them proper documentation per request and also UNFAIR tactics to get consumers to pay on debts. LYING to get a payment and making false statements and claims. At the end of our conversation I asked for them to either give me some type of letter via email stating they will delete the collection off my credit once they receive payment on the XXXX and both representatives were not able to do that because it was " against policy '' and they delete it after they payment. I went ahead and voided my charge and verified the payment plan was delete for the XXXX. This company has horrible reviews and scare tactics to get their consumers to pay. I do not appreciate being lied to and tricked into FALSE AGREEMENTS!

I reviewed my credit report on XXXX at XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. I discovered I have a fraudulent collection account appearing on my credit report. This is not my account and I have submitted fraud claim to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. You are to remove this fraud account immediately before i pursue legal action. Under federal regulations this does not qualify as a " valid verification of debt ". I have previously sent you a request to validate my debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and all I received was an itemized list of the alleged charges you claim I owe you. This does not meet the Federal Trade Commissions guidelines of what constitutes proper debt validation. In addition, in the case of Spears Vs. Brennan ( IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF INDIANA, No. 49A02-0003-CV-169 ), the court ruled that : 15 U.S.C . 1692g ( b ) ( emphasis added ). On XX/XX/1996, nineteen days after the date of Brennans debt collection letter, Spears counsel Shepard sent Brennan a letter declaring that Spears disputes your debt collection-related allegations, denies the same, and demands strict proof and verification thereof. Record at 21. As such, Brennan should have ceased his debt collection efforts immediately upon receiving that letter. Instead, Brennan proceeded to obtain a default judgment against Spears on the debt collection claim before he had mailed Spears the necessary verification and, thus, violated 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). Brennan maintains, however, that there was no violation of the FDCPA because he sent adequate verification of the debt [ to Spears ] in the XX/XX/1996 notice of claim. Brief of Appellee at 13. Specifically, Brennan claims that a copy of the consumer credit contract between Spears and American General attached to the notice of claim provided sufficient verification of the debt within the meaning of 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). We can not agree. The contract in no way provides sufficient verification of the debt. A review of the document reveals that it identifies only the terms of Spears loan, including a 17.99 % annual interest rate and the original loan amount of {$2500.00}. The loan agreement contains no accounting of any payments made by Spears, the dates on which those payments were made, the interest which had accrued, or any late fees which had been assessed once Spears stopped making the required payments. Indeed, the existing unpaid contract balance at the time Brennan sent the debt collection notice was at least {$350.00} more than the original loan amount.

Jefferson Capital placed 5 derogatory accounts on my consumer report, I have asked for verification be sent to me however I never received any documents showing proof However Jefferson Capital took it among themselves to feel as is they could just place inaccurate accounts on my report. According to 15 USC 1692a ( 2 ) the term communication means conveying of information regarding a debt directly or indirectly to any person through any medium. Any medium includes oral, written, electronic or any others which includes nonaffiliated third parties such as the 3 CRAs. 15 USC 6801 ( a ) states it is the policy of the Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. Be Advised that I have not given any Company consent to share my nonpublic personal information. This Company has not only infringed my rights to privacy but has violated multiple Federal Laws. XXXX allowed Jefferson Capital access to my consumer report without my permission, Jefferson Capital had no legal documentation allowing for them to give my personal information. Information obtained by aggravated identity theft is defiantly illegal. I have had ongoing problems with the 3 Credit Agencies not doing their job to properly verify accounts before placing them on reports. This has been reported and will remain being reported as SOMEONE IS BREAKING THE LAW. REMOVE ALL FALSE INFORMATION NOW, Jefferson Capital could not send verification to me proving these accounts where mine. They SAID ALL FALSE ACCOUNTS WOULD BE REMOVED, YET THAT HAS FAILED TO HAPPEN. Alot of illegal activity going on. Jefferson Capital still has not responded to the last Complaint. With that being said I'm requesting that the documents Jefferson Capital presented to XXXX be mailed to me along with information XXXX gathered that gave them the authority to give access to my personal information. I'll be looking for these documents in the mail along with an updated Credit Report. Again, I have not given anyone permission to share my personal information. I will have this looked into by Federal Authorities as it's clear that these accounts were placed on my report with extortionate means as a way to coerce and swindle me into paying debt that does not belong to me. You have damaged my credit. I will seek compensation for all of this.

My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, for committing identity theft. I have never given Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). I have not validated any alleged debt with Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC and my failure to dispute the validity of these alleged debts shall not be construed as an admission of liability. As of XXXX I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, giving Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC any right to collect on this alleged debt. I have never received any documentation requesting validation from Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report, including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the consumer, prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

I have been harassed by Jefferson Capital for over a year now. Dozens of times I have disputed with the credit bureaus to no avail. Jefferson Capital does not do any sort of research except send the same story back stating that this " debt is valid '' They are saying that I owe a debt and this debt was sold to them by a company. I have no idea what company or what this debt is, and I do not owe it. I have never seen anything other than dozens of letters from Jefferson Capital demanding payment and then threatening civil action. This has crushed my credit score as well. Recently, I have received over 15 letters from local attorneys in the area asking to represent me since I am apparently being " sued '' in civil court in the county I live in, once again for a debt I have no knowledge of and one I do not owe. Since I was getting nowhere with the credit bureaus, I submitted a complaint to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sent my complaint to Jefferson Capital, where once again they did not do any sort of research into anything or supply me with any sort of valid paperwork. Instead, they sent a letter stating " our records reflect that the account is currently the subject of a lawsuit Filed on XX/XX/2022, pending in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX as case number XXXX. As a result, this matter is beyond the purview of the XXXX and we request this complaint be dismissed '' For the 20th time, they didn't do anything but ask for a complaint to be dismissed so it wouldn't go on the XXXX webpage, permitting Jefferson Capital from just continuing to threaten and have actually started legal action against me. Today, I received a letter in the mail asking to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX section to pick up papers I am being served. This has to be one of the most predatory Collections practices I have ever seen. I now have been sued in local court for a debt I do not owe and have been bombarded by lawyers asking to represent me for this upcoming case. I am also being threatened with garnishment of wages. I am a 100 % percent XXXX veteran. I have my XXXX benefits and my XXXX benefits as sources of income and that is it. The amount of stress this has added to my life is astounding. Upon research, this appears to be the norm for Jefferson Capital as they are the recipients of dozens of lawsuits for their " collection practices. The complaints have many things in common and this " company '' is disgraceful. Harassment is just what they do.

I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to. In the event you transfer this account to an attorney without providing proof of contract, and proving your claim, he/she will be immediate reported to the XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX for code of ethics violations.

Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, a national debt collector, is attempting to collect on a debt that has been processed and accepted by XXXX, an insurance company. The alleged debt arises from XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$4000.00} for four devices and on months service with late fees ( two phones for {$680.00} each, two tablets for {$760.00} each and one hotspot device for {$85.00} ). The telephone numbers and corresponding insurance claim numbers associated with each device are XXXX claim number XXXX for an XXXX, XXXX claim number XXXX for an XXXX, XXXX claim number XXXX for an XXXX, XXXX claim number XXXX for an XXXX, and XXXX for the service on the hot spot device which I own. I tried to pay the {$85.00} for the one month of service with late fee, but I was told by XXXX that the account ( account number XXXX ) had been forwarded to collections. I then informed XXXX XXXX that they are attempting to collect twice and are double dipping while committing at least two criminal acts of wire fraud and insurance fraud as well as violating State and Federal debt collation regulations and laws. I have elected not to have my devices replaced after the claims were accepted by the insurance company and, as such, XXXX had billed me for and placed charges on my account for the replacement devices which has now been forwarded to this collection agency. While I understand the norm is to replace the devices and then bill the account for the newly replaced devices that is not the case in this instance. Therefore, no money is due by me for the devices that the insurance company paid out on. XXXX XXXX has sold the debt associated with my account to this collection agency for an undisclosed amount and the debt collector is now trying to solicit payment on a debt that, except for the {$85.00}, has already been, or should have been, satisfied. In resolution of the double dipping attempt by this collection agency I would like full forgiveness of the debt by both the collection agency and XXXX XXXX along with updated credit reported data provided to all credit reporting agencies. I would also like this CFPB complaint to be sent to the appropriate State and federal regulatory agencies for a thorough and complete investigation to determine if this practice and type of behavior by the companies involved is the norm as a matter of ordinary business practices including, but not limited to, the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ).

Mailed information company : JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX Re : Debt Collection Notice - Lack of Required License Dear Jefferson Capital Systems, I am writing to address a matter concerning a debt collection I never received a notice but I received an alert from my credit report that that your agency has placed on my report. I wish to bring to your attention that, based on the information available to me, it appears that your agency may not be appropriately licensed to collect debts in the state of Texas, as required by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) regulations. Please be informed that it is a violation of federal law under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) for a debt collector to engage in debt collection activities without the necessary state license ( s ). As a consumer, it is my right to ensure that my debt is being collected by a licensed and legally compliant debt collector. Therefore, I kindly request that you provide me with the following information : 1. Your agency 's license number for debt collection in the state of Texas. 2. Proof of your agency 's compliance with the licensing requirements as mandated by the state 's debt collection laws. I expect your prompt response to this request, as failure to comply with the necessary licensing requirements could constitute a violation of the FDCPA. If your agency is not licensed to collect debts in my state, I demand that you cease all debt collection activities related to my account immediately and remove any negative credit reporting associated with this debt. Please consider this letter as a formal dispute of the debt and a request for validation under the FDCPA. Until you can provide the requested information and demonstrate your compliance with state licensing requirements, I will not acknowledge this debt as valid. I kindly request that you respond to this letter within 30 days from the date of receipt. Failure to do so may result in my taking further action to protect my rights as a consumer. Additionally, please be advised that I will be monitoring my credit reports closely to ensure that the debt collection activities cease, as required by law. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX Enclosure : Credit Report Notice CC : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Iowa XXXX Office of the Attorney General of Texas XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX

I would like this invalid account deleted from my credit report immediately. I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX, XXXX, and Jefferson Capital System regarding their blatant disregard for my consumer rights in connection with a debt collection account that is erroneously reporting on my credit report. I have taken all necessary steps to rectify this situation, yet I have been met with inaction, lack of communication, and a complete disregard for the regulations set forth in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). On XX/XX/2023, I sent certified letters to XXXX, XXXX, and Jefferson Capital System, respectively, notifying them of a debt collection account that I believe is invalid and should not be reporting on my credit report. The purpose of these letters was to formally request documentation to verify and validate the accuracy of the debt, as well as to initiate an investigation into the matter as outlined by the FCRA. I have meticulously followed all procedures and ensured that each letter was delivered within the stipulated timeframe. The certified letters were delivered and received by XXXX, XXXX, and Jefferson Capital System on or before XX/XX/2023. The tracking numbers for each delivery are as follows : XXXX : XXXX XXXX : XXXX Jefferson Capital System : XXXX I urge you to verify the delivery of these letters by visiting XXXX using the provided tracking numbers. Despite the undeniable receipt of my correspondence, I have yet to receive any documentation from Jefferson Capital System regarding the validity of the debt in question. Moreover, I have not been informed of any investigation results from either XXXX or XXXX within the mandated 30-day period. This situation not only undermines my consumer rights but also tarnishes my creditworthiness unfairly. I have taken the necessary steps to address a concerning discrepancy on my credit report, and the lack of response and cooperation is very frustrating. The disregard for my rights as a consumer is troubling and goes against the very principles that the FCRA aims to uphold. I implore the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to take swift action in this matter. XXXX, XXXX, and Jefferson Capital System must be held accountable for their failure to adhere to the FCRA regulations and for their evident negligence in responding to my inquiries. I request that this account be immediately removed from my credit report.

on XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC stating that acct # XXXX XXXX Ref # XXXX Debt Description : XXXX ACCOUNT Amount of Debt {$61.00} needs to be paid & the options I have to settle this debt. I contacted XXXX at XXXX & was transferred to the collection department when I supplied the account # on the letter. They stated this was a fee for a transfer deposit totaling over {$2500.00} to this XXXX account from XXXX XXXX for some sort of custom knives in XX/XX/XXXX. She suggested that maybe I sell things like on XXXX, which is incorrect. I have never used XXXX to sell things. There is a charge of {$61.00} fee to receive the funds. I inquired what bank account this XXXX account was linked to as it is separate from the legitimate XXXX account that I actively use. She stated this account was never linked to a bank account & she asked me to verify my email address. I gave her my email address XXXX. She said that does not match the account but she would be unable to provide any more details regarding this account because it was sold to XXXX XXXX. I requested to close the account so it may not have further use & she stated that XXXX XXXX would assist me with that. If I want details & proof of the debt/transactions I have to contact XXXX XXXX. She gave me the # to contact them at XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX at the number provided XXXX per their instruction. XXXX XXXX required I give them my personal information which I did not feel comfortable doing just to talk to them regarding the debt. Then stated they do not have any details regarding the debt, nor can they close the account. They just know the balance & are seeking payment of the debt. They can not provide proof of the debt. The notice I received in the mail says I can request proof of debt from XXXX XXXX. He then stated he would be marking this as a disputed account & no further action would be taken until the investigations team could take a look at the account. I requested to speak to someone on investigations or anyone that could give me more information & he just reiterated that they do not have details regarding the debt & said this will be referred back to XXXX for payment & resolution. I should receive a letter from the Investigations team around 60-90 days from now detailing the outcome of the investigation that I apparently don't need to play a role in according to XXXX & XXXX XXXX.

I have a pending court date set for XX/XX/XXXX. The only reason I found out about this was due to my new landlord running a background check for my occupancy permit per the City of XXXX. I was never served. Furthermore, I have never, in ANY capacity, been contacted by Jefferson Capital Systems. I only found out about their name recently when I ran my credit report prior to consolidating my student loans. After I noticed the collections for XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) I contacted XXXX ( formerly named XXXX XXXX ) and they show no record of and defaulted loans, and all loans were paid off and brought current. It was only shortly after this consolidation XXXX XXXX moved to sue, still never notifying me in any capacity of their intent. Being as I was never contacted, I never had the opportunity to dispute. I have filed disputes with XXXX and XXXX ( currently pending, which again, I believed kept collections at bay and unable to file suit during that period ), and still never furnishing validation of debt. I am getting a copy of the documentation from the circuit clerk on file, and will arrive on my court date and explain this situation to the judge as well, as to avoid a possible default judgment. Per my report, Jefferson Capital has had this account since XX/XX/XXXX. In 2 years, I have never bee contacted in via mail, email, or phone call, by anyone with this company claiming I owe a debt. And now they have, to the extent I feel, filed suit illegally, in the hopes that that I would not become aware of their intent, and receive a judgement on account of my being absent. As XXXX XXXX has verified no debt is owed, the credit bureaus are investigating, and I have never been contacted regarding the debt in question, I am moving to contacting an attorney after XX/XX/XXXX with my findings after the court hearing. I also do not find it to be coincidence, that upon investigating as to WHO Jefferson Capital is, as stated since I have NEVER heard of them in the 2 years they apparently had this account, the first mention via a quick XXXX search is a case from XX/XX/XXXX. in which they attempted to sue an XXXX XXXX XXXX ( like myself ) briefly after he too consolidated his federal loans. I have contacted an attorney regarding this matter, and will by filing a similar complaint to the necessary receptors, as this, to me, seems to violate, in numerous capacities, the FDCPA and FCRA.

I received a letter, dated XX/XX/XXXX, from JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS , LLC ( JCS ) claiming that I owed a past due debt. No information was provided other than a dollar amount and a financial firm 's name - no description was offered, no date, and no other backup information of any kind. I know that I did not have any past debts, but I was concerned that someone had possibly incurred debt under my name. I therefore indicated that I disputed the debt and requested, by certified mail, that JCS provide information on the debt that they indicated I am entitled under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) so that I could understand their basis for claiming that I owed a debt. In their second letter, dated XX/XX/XXXX, they did not provide any further information as I was entitled under the FDCPA and as I requested. Instead, they asked me to certify that my identity had been stolen. Prior to receiving the second letter, I had contact the financial institution who was the supposed holder of the original debt, and they indicated that my accounts had been closed with no balance and that I did not owe anything. I sent another letter with this information to JCS and again requested that provide me with information as required by the FDCPA such as : - A detailed explanation of the charge - The date of the charge and supposed default - Name of the charge-off creditor and account number - The name of any other debtor or creditor associated with the charge - The names of all entities that have purchased the debt - A copy of any and all contracts or documents evidencing my agreement to the debt In their third letter, dated XX/XX/XXXX, they again did not provide me any information at all to corroborate the supposed debt. Instead, they simply said that because my debt was too old that they were closing my file and would pursue no additional action. This reason is nonsensical because they must have known the age of the supposed debt before they sent their first letter ( even though they never provided that information to me ). Their refusal to provide any information whatsoever regarding this supposed debt and to dismiss it leads suggests that their closing of the case occurred because the debt was fabricated, and that JCS knows that the debt is fabricated. I believe this is why JCS refused to provide me with information that they are required to provide by the FDCPA.

Good afternoon, I contacted Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. to get a debt validation prior to proceeding with their allegation I owe a debt especially since I've never done business with this company. This was sent XX/XX/XXXX and they received XX/XX/XXXX confirmed through Certified Mail. In my debt validation request in which I have the right to request under 15 usc 1692g, I asked Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. to provide validation through : * The amount of the alleged debt * The name of the original creditor to whom the debt is owed * The name and address of the original creditor which differs from XXXX XXXX XXXX * The agreement between Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC and XXXX XXXX XXXX granting Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. the alleged right to collect on XXXX XXXX XXXX behalf * A statement that if I notified Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC in writing within 30 days that the alleged debt is disputed, Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC must give me the verification of the alleged debt and a judgement against me the consumer * Any insurance claim submitted by any creditor regarding the account in question. I stated if any of the information requested isn't received or provided and an invalidated debt is still being reported to consumer reporting agencies, I will have to exercise my rights under 15 usc 1692k which includes for me filing this complaint through the CFPB. In response to this call to action on XX/XX/XXXX I was sent misleading and offensive information stating " they can't sue me due to law limits of time when they can sue on the debt. '' They state " if I dont pay the debt, they may or continue to report to credit reporting agencies as unpaid as long as the law permits this reporting. '' They also included 1 false and misleading representation of what they call a " verification '' of the alleged debt which is nothing but a statement from XXXX XXXX XXXX being sent to MS XXXX XXXX XXXX dated back to XX/XX/XXXX reporting on the alleged debt. This is not a validation of the alleged debt as I requested. This statement doesn't address any of my validation requests and is intended to mislead me on information regarding the alleged debt. This isn't right and I will like to continue to take action against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. pursuant to 15 usc 1692d. Thank you for helping me to bring remedy to this unfortunate circumstance.

On XX/XX/2017 I changed my wireless mobile provider from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I left XXXX wireless my account was in good standing with {$0.00} balance owed. Several months later I received a bill from XXXX XXXX in the amount of over {$1200.00}. When I called XXXX XXXX and attempted to find out what this bill was for, no one could figure it out and stated to me they arent sure. I advised them that I was not sending any payment to them unless they can clearly explain to me what the bill was for, because I confirmed via telephone with a XXXX XXXX representative when I made my last billing cycle payment that there was absolutely nothing left else I owed ( hidden cost, termination fees, etc. ). But he insured me that there was nothing else. For a few more months I attempted on multiple phone calls to them over and over again to find what this bill was I received for more than {$1200.00} but every time, not a single person understood it and was not able to explain anything at all to me. Eventually they sent it to collections where it still remains and continues to hold my overall credit score down. After a few months of it being in collections I went to a local XXXX XXXX corporate store and went over the bill with a manager there, who was the first intelligent person to figure out what they were looking at and explained to me it looks like XXXX XXXX continued to bill monthly cycles under my account, even though the account was terminated the day I switched to XXXX XXXX XXXX. How do you bill Someone for months that isnt even no longer a customer? This is a huge mistake on XXXX part and because of their negligence, my credit has been severely damaged! I cant even talk to someone with XXXX XXXX to have them straighten it out since its there fault, because they told me they no longer hold the account, and that the collection agency ( Jefferson Capital ) now holds the information. And when I called Jefferson capital to notify them that they were sold a bogus account from XXXX XXXX, they advised me there is nothing they can do for me and just kept asking me how I want to pay it? I told them I was not paying anything because there was no debt in the first place. I need this matter to be deleted from my credit history and wiped clean immediately. This has been so unfair and has really caused a lot of headaches financially for me.

1. I assumed a loan from XXXX in XXXX. 2. Late XXXX early XXXX Aging parent issues and loss of income caused me to hire XXXX XXXX to negotiate a settlement agreement with XXXX. 3. Filled out the application with XXXX XXXX using current address since XXXX in Maryland. 4. XXXX sold the debt to Jefferson Capital ( collections ) in XX/XX/XXXX after XXXX XXXX had started negotiations. 5. Jefferson Capital decided to use my old address in XXXX, PA which I moved from in XXXX. I have not owned the property since. Correspondences were sent to that address which is over 12 years old and was not entered into my application with XXXX or XXXX XXXX. Therefore Jefferson Capital ran my history and intentionally entered the incorrect address, which disallowed proper correspondence. Had they used my address as of XXXX, as noted in line 3, this debt could have been resolved last year and my credit would not have taken as much of a decline. I verified this when I called Jefferson Capital, after I learned through XXXX XXXX who owned the loan, when the XXXX XXXX agent I clarify my address for verification. I gave him the only address I used on any applications since XXXX in Maryland. He said that the MD address was not correct. I finally figured out they used my old address after he told me the city of the old address ( XXXX, PA ). I spoke to a " supervisor '' who stated XXXX XXXX had that address and gave it to Jefferson Capital. I know that's in accurate as I have received all mail from Beyond Finance to my address in MD. I contacted XXXX XXXX and they said the old address is not anywhere on my application. I paid Jefferson my debt, but their practices in this case are deceptive and designed to prolong the debt to increase their interest to collect. This is afoul of current law and abusive practices. Due to their intentional practice of using an address I have not resided at since XXXX, I was never given the opportunity to address the matter as legally provided. I demand this debt be erased immediately and my credit score restored to the equivalent of the points deducted due to their mismanagement and predatory practices. This was not a clerical error in any fashion as my loan was made in XXXX, 10 years after selling the house in XXXX, PA. cc : Honorable XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX

In XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX, I 'd attempted to make payment arrangements with a representative of the company to begin to pay my debt. The first agreement was {$50.00} for two years until the year XX/XX/XXXX. I was unemployed and single mother. It was one month that I 'd asked the representative for lower payment ( {$25.00} ) just until I could get on back on my feet. The representative agree, but the company had still taken the original amount. Since it was an unauthorized payment amount taken, I 'd asked the representative for paper statements because I did n't want them no later to withdraw payments from my bank account. The representative refused and told me that they did n't have mailed paper statement it was only bank account withdrawal and if I 'd refused it would be a considered a breach of contract and my credit would be affect. I 'd still refused to approve him to continue to withdraw the payment, because they 'd breached contracted by withdrawing the more than I 'd authorized during this time. He 'd then stated that my account would still be considered valid and it would affect my credit. Since then, I 've tried to apply for credit and other loans to have better myself, I 've been disapproved every time and once I 've reached out to verify the account information as far as the balance, I 've not received any information. The account was originally owned by another creditor, in which they 'd bought the account, and I do n't agree with the amount and want to know how did they come with it. I 'd borrowed {$10000.00} from XXXX XXXX while I was a student at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. The company is stating that I owe over {$24000.00}! I do n't think I 've accumulated that much interest. They are negatively reporting information to the three credit bureaus or missing information. Also, since this company ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) had bought an original creditor ( XXXX XXXX ) 's account that was going through a federal investigation, I 'd received a settlement judgement that they did n't follow protocol with reporting information for servicemembers of Armed Forces. There 's also multiple accounts, but I 'm unsure which is accurate and why they 're not reporting any information and just keep reporting without sending me information to handle the matter.

Formal Complaint Regarding Harassment and Violations of the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( 15 USC 44 ) and Federal Statutes ( 12 USC 839 ( a ), 12 USC 1431 ) I am writing to formally complain about the conduct of your agency, JeffCappSYS, in its debt collection efforts. This letter is intended to address a series of violations of the Consumer Financial Protection Act ( CFPA ), specifically 15 USC 44, as well as other federal statutes, including 12 USC 839 ( a ) and 12 USC 1431. It has come to my attention that your agency, JeffCappSYS, has been consistently engaging in debt collection practices that not only infringe upon my rights but also disregard the principles of fairness and legality outlined in federal statutes. This conduct has caused considerable distress and hardship in my life. First and foremost, I have been subject to relentless and unwarranted harassment in violation of the CFPA. The frequency and nature of the communications I have received have far exceeded the legal boundaries set by 15 USC 44. The excessive number of calls, the use of foul language, and a complete disregard for my privacy have caused considerable anguish. Furthermore, I am deeply concerned about the methods employed by JeffCappSYS in its collection efforts. The absence of documentary evidence and contractual transparency, as required under federal statutes, including 12 USC 839 ( a ) and 12 USC 1431, has raised serious doubts about the legitimacy of the debt in question. I request that JeffCappSYS immediately ceases all forms of harassment and misconduct, as required by the CFPA and other federal statutes. I also demand transparency and adherence to the relevant laws in the handling of this debt. Failure to address these concerns and rectify these violations will leave me with no choice but to take appropriate legal action to uphold my rights and seek remedies provided by law. This formal complaint serves as a clear indication of my intent to protect my rights and address the misconduct I have endured. I expect a prompt response to this complaint, confirming your commitment to rectify the situation and outlining the steps you will take to ensure compliance with the law. Your cooperation in this matter is imperative to resolving this issue amicably. Sincerely,

I have received phone calls and payment offers from " Jefferson Capital Systems LLC. '' They have two reference numbers : # 1 is for - XXXX XXXX {$960.00} # 2 is for- XXXX XXXX {$96.00} I do not know what either account is for and I have disputed both of them via the XXXX XXXX site for that very reason. I have done this several times. When I have called JCS and inquired about XXXX they told me the phone number affiliated with it ended in XXXX. That has NEVER been my phone number, ever. I have asked for a statement or billing affiliated with this account from both XXXX and JCS and have not be provided one ever. As with the XXXX XXXX, I do not know what this account is and do not recall opening it. I have also asked for a detailed statement and I have not been provided one. When I call the number for XXXX XXXX provided by Jefferson LLC, they tell me Jefferson LLC is handling it. When I speak to Jefferson LLC, they tell me XXXX XXXX is handling it. Eitherway, I have told both of them that this account is not mine and I want a statement. I have asked several times over the last several years and have yet to be provided anything. Recently, Ive received charge off options from Jefferson in XX/XX/2022 but these accounts are not mine so it doesn't feel right to pay them especially when money is tight. Finally, Ive called XXXX XXXX directly today to see what can be done and have been told to do this. I believe my identity has been stolen. The amount of XXXX and {$960.00} are just too close to be coincidence. Jefferson Capital told me it is a coincidence but I don't believe it. Also, I attended XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, so when I saw Jefferson Capital Systems on my credit report I immediately thought it was a student loan. There are just way too many coincidences surrounding these debts. Both of these accounts have brought my credit score down significantly and has cost me a lot in finance charges for other accounts I've opened and not gotten better finance rates for. I would have been more aggressive with this but I pursue this when I have the funds to make a payment, and the time, as I have XXXX children and twin XXXX XXXX XXXX. I also thought for a while this was college debt due to the name of the collection agency. Please let me know what else you need.

XXXX XXXX allowed someone to fraudulently open an acct in my name. The account was opened in a state I do not reside in and an address I've never resided. I filed a police report and have previously called XXXX 's cooperate office and spoke to them. I also went into a local office and discussed this. They admitted to not having any of my personal information on file but having numerous signatures of others on the account but not mine. XXXX deleted the negative account from my credit once they knew it was not me only to sell it to a collection agency. Now, XXXX XXXX XXXX., on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX has placed it back on my credit and requesting funds. I disputed it online with XXXX and I was notified that I had to request a dispute in writing from the other two credit bureaus. Once the debt was verified with XXXX via online dispute, I received a notice in the mail from XXXX XXXX , Inc. stating they are representing their client XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is the first I am hearing from either of them due to them not having any information for me which lets them know I am the wrong person. The letter states it is a collection notice and their client has agreed to accept 12 monthly payments of {$150.00} as a full and final resolution on this account. Why would I pay half of something that does not belong to me? I have sent a debt validation letter via certified mail to XXXX XXXX XXXX, but I have read online through the XXXX that people said their letters were returned to sender from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I want this handled in a timely manner as I only get 30 days to dispute and I sent it with 10 days left to dispute. On my credit report it says this was opened by XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. Original creditor name : XXXX XXXX XXXX. The balance is {$3400.00}. I would like this removed from my credit report as it is not my debt. There is no legal binding contract connecting me to this debt nor any of my signatures or ID. I have only had XXXX XXXX XXXX cellular service since XX/XX/XXXX. I would also like the address reported to the credit bureau in connection to this by XXXX XXXX XXXX be removed. I have never lived/resided there and there is no verification/validation that can link me there. This is all false information reported and is affecting my credit negatively.

My issue with this debt I believe began in XXXX when I discovered via a credit report that XXXX XXXX XXXX accounts had been started in my name using an address I was no longer living at. I have never had a XXXX XXXX plan and have always been on an XXXX XXXX XXXX family plan with my parents and siblings since I was a teenager. That plan is under my parents ' name and I have never had another cell phone that was not on their plan. At some point around this time I also received a call from a debt collector ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ) trying to collect on this / these account ( s ). When I discovered all this I tried to report ID theft on the XXXX XXXX website, but it said I needed a police report in order to start the ID theft process. When I went to a police station and tried to submit a police report I was told I needed a paper copy of one of my bills that had the account number on it. But as far as I know I had never received any bill because the address used to open the accounts was one I was no longer living in at the time the accounts were apparently opened. Subsequently as I was going back and forth between XXXX, debt collector and police department, I saw that on my credit report the debt and the accounts associated with it had disappeared, and there were no outstanding debts listed as being associated with my name or my credit report. Although I had not successfully filed a police report I took this to mean that somehow the companies involved had understood that it was fraudulent debt, and I stopped receiving any contact about the debt from collections. However a few years later I once again received contact about what is apparently the same debt from a different debt collector ( JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS LLC, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX ). I first received contact from them via phone on XX/XX/XXXX but I believe they may possibly also have tried to contact me at my parents ' residence via mailmy parents subsequently forwarded several bills to me from the debt collector. The bills I have on hand are dated XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX but they have sent several others as well. At this point I am once again attempting to navigate the process of disputing the debt and having it removed from my credit report.

I received a letter on XX/XX/2020 from a firm called Jefferson Capital Systems LLC stating that they were the new owner and creditor for my " referenced account. '' The referenced account was listed as " XXXX ACCOUNT. '' After reviewing my e-mails and XXXX and XXXX accounts, I was not able to determine what the balance was from as I had not received any e-mails from XXXX notifying that I had a balance that needed to be paid. The only notification I received was an e-mail on XX/XX/2020 from XXXX stating that my balance had been sold to the creditor Jefferson Capital Systems LLC. The letter sent by Jefferson Capital Systems LLC dated XX/XX/2020 states that payment of the amount of debt must be paid within 30 days to avoid reporting on my credit report, and subsequent damage to my pristine credit history. The reason that I am writing a complaint for fraud is that balance in question had already been paid to XXXX in XX/XX/2020. There was not attempt by XXXX/XXXX to notifying me of the balance they sold to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC of " Balance : $ XXXX '' as stated in the e-mail they sent notifying me of the sale of the balance on XX/XX/2020. While I was initially unaware as to what this balance could be when receiving the letter from Jefferson Capital System LLC, I determined that it was from the sale of a pair of shoes on XX/XX/2020 and the associated fees with the sale that created the alleged past due balance were paid prior to my transfer from XXXX to my bank account. In this case, I believe that XXXX and Jefferson Capital Systems LLC are both fraudulent operators. XXXX XXXX fraudulent activity including the sale of accounts receivables to J efferson Capital Systems LLC in which they had already received payment from the initial customer. I believe that Jefferson Capital Systems LLC is behaving fraudulently by knowingly pressuring customers of PayPal who have had their fraudulent " balances '' sold to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC to pay these balances immediately due to the creditor 's threat of causing of harmful implications to consumer credit reports and scores if their payment is not made within 30 days of notification of the Jefferson Capital System LLC 's ownership of the balance and request for payment.

Received email notification on XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX that there was a change to my credit report. I checked the details and found a collection had been added to my credit report. The company is XXXX XXXX XXXX, out of XXXX. XXXX, MN. I called several times, the hours are limited to contact someone at their business. I wrote a letter and requested details because all the details I had on my credit report was " XXXX XXXX XXXX ''. I called XXXX received XXXX help ( see attachments, letter from XXXX ). I visited my local XXXX to try and investigate this issue, no records. They said they sent my debt to XXXX XXXX. I wrote a letter to the Attorney General of Minnesota with the details ( XXXX is a MN business ). I have attached all letters with the details. I called XXXX XXXX early this morning ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and finally got ahold of someone who could explain. I don't even have an account number ( XXXX ) I can refer to so this could be researched. Apparently Attorney General of Minnesota had reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX to get details and got this moving along. According to the two individuals I spoke with at XXXX XXXX ( XXXX and XXXX ) today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) they are sending a manual request to the three bureaus to remove this from my credit report. That's great but in the meantime qualifying for a home equity loan has been denied because of this. Received no notification, no letter, no phone call, nothing to give me advance notice of this collection, XXXX just attached it to my credit report! My issue is now with XXXX because they either sold this alleged debt to XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX purchased " old '' debt from XXXX and attempted to collect their share. This was for {$85.00}!!! I have attached a letter from XXXX which is the most unhelpful piece of correspondence. XXXX needs to investigate this and remove me from their database. This alleged debt is for a debit card and the date was XX/XX/XXXX. I still do not have the details. Any help you can provide would be most helpful. In the meantime I am closing all of my XXXX credit card accounts ( zero balances by the way, have been excellent customer of XXXX ). The debit card was never used and don't understand why it would have a {$85.00} balance from XX/XX/XXXX.

It is the policy of the Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. '' 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) states that " A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. ( Furnisher of information to credit agencies ) is a financial institution by definition under that title. 15 USC 1681 section 604 a section 2 states that " In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : in accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates.

I had an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX and I never use the account never once charged it. I ended up very sick emitted to the hospital stayed there for 6 weeks and during that time somebody had gotten hold of my credit card that was too XXXX and they charged it all the way to the {$300.00} limit. Every so often I check my credit report on a regular basis throughout the year and I came across the XXXX account listed as derogatory and had multiple months without payments made. if someone would review my credit file I believe it's apparent I was unaware of the charges, I have been excellent with paying bills on time and to keep my available credit around 50 % .so after I found the error on my file I called XXXX and ask them what was going on. I thought maybe it was an error on their end but it wasn't it was somebody who had fraudulently charged my account so I disputed it with them it took a while but eventually they did actually remove the whole account in my favor after I provided enough relevant information that shows that I I did not authorize any transactions to do with that and I will provide that dispute letter that resulted in the deletion as of XXXX that out of the way, my current problem is that while I was fighting XXXX to correct the item, it evidently went into collections and sold to a debt collection agency known as XXXX XXXX . I thought it would be easy to remove the XXXX account being I do not owe them anything. I have called XXXX, disputed them twice proving to them with documents showing im not in debt to either company. I've felt more than once disrespected when trying to reason with a representative .instead of showing an empathy type of demeanor towards me for having all this stuff to deal with that I don't deserve, I get an offer for them to remove the collection of my file IF I pay only XXXX dollars instead of XXXX. Long story short im either not understanding something or XXXX XXXX is holding this hard credit hit over my head until they get paid something XXXX dollars would be well worth it to be done with this nightmare and I have the means to pay that but it's the principle of how im treated according to my actions. I refuse to pay for something a criminal stole from me.

I have filed a complain with the XXXX against this company. But when I reviewed the other complaints listed there, I discovered that every single complaint was about the same thing as mine. This company clearly is employing some illegal tactics to get people so scared that they will pay for a debt they may not owe. I want resolution for my own problem, but I also think that the CFPB needs to put this company on warning so that they stop preying on people who may not realize their rights. For each of the people who complained, there must be thousands more who are falling victim to this company 's repulsive system for making money on people who thought they had gotten out of debt. I discovered the problem today because my credit report went down by 29 points, though I have been working very hard to restore it during a horrific divorce. I am in the middle of applying for mortgage modifications and need to keep my credit score intact during these very difficult times. I was shocked to see this company had filed a collections notice against me though I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A COLLECTION NOTICE FROM THEM. They clearly bought this debt from someone else and have never bothered to look into it. This debt is probably from XX/XX/XXXX, and was my soon-to-be-ex-husband 's share of our phone bill. He left me with many debts and sole responsibility of XXXX children, and I explained to XXXX at the time that I was not able to pay for his phone bill, which was listed under a family plan. I thought that XXXX had thereafter cleared that debt and I even worked with a credit counselor who also worked to ensure that debt was clear. Now, out of nowhere, at the worst possible time, this company buys a debt that is at least 8 years old and lists it on my account as collections, completely destroying the credit I just spent a year rebuilding. This is not a new debt and I have not received anything ever from this company about this debt. They are destroying my chances to get a mortgage modification over a debt that did not belong to me and is over eight years old. I don't even think that the amount is accurate ; they list the debt as {$500.00} but I don't think this is even based on an accurate bill from 8 years ago.

I received notice on my XXXX credit report about a XXXX bill that was delinquent and had been bought by a collection agency. I do not remember having a XXXX account and this bill of over {$2500.00} that is more than 3 years or more old, possibly older, is not mine. I had an XXXX XXXX XXXX cell account and then I opted to switch to XXXX. XXXX paid my old XXXX XXXX XXXX account off and I continued with XXXX until XXXX XXXX caused me to not be able to continue cell service, because I wasn't able to work at the time. XXXX was helpful and that account was taken care of due to the declared disaster. Other than that, I have not had a cell account in my name, especially with XXXX. I wrote in and disputed in XX/XX/2021, and the Collection Agency said they had legal rights to collect and it was my debt. I have not been sent a copy of the signed, original contract, not have I been given any information at all about this account. I resubmitted a dispute today, and in the same day was told it was resolved and is mine. XXXX said that if I was not satisfied with the outcome of the dispute, I needed to contact CFPB. That is why I am here. I do not owe this bill and this collection company has not provided anything but a written statement to XXXX, stating how much I owe, that the claim is legit and it meets the criteria to be billed to me. I find this not only humiliating, dehumanizing and manipulative, but in a pandemic where we have just become homeless, and are doing our absolute best to be able to afford a motel room and food, as well as keep gas in our vehicle to get to and from work, this is causing a lot of undue stress and hurting my credit so badly, I will never get it turned around. I'm asking for a copy of the original, signed XXXX contract along with the phone 's serial numbers, IMEI numbers, phone numbers, date account was originally opened, where it was opened ( online or in store ) and the amount, if any that was paid up front for this account. Also, if the account had any money paid up front, were the funds, cash, credit/debit card or check. If credit/debit or check, I am asking for a print out of the payment method, as well as a copy of the address and phone number attached to payment method.

To whom this may concern, XXXX XXXX reported my account with a balance of {$0.00} in XX/XX/XXXX. In the attachments provided you will see my last payment date of XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX is requesting that I provide more information than what has already been updated on my credit reporting. It is illegal for your company to obtain an account without having all of the information. In the next 30 days, I need to view my ORGINAL CONTRACT W/ A COPY OF MY SSN AND MY ID to prove ownership and not identity theft. Reason : Per my credit reporting account w/ XXXX XXXX has been closed sinceXX/XX/XXXX with the last payment being XX/XX/XXXX. I am also requesting my ENTIRE FILE that way your company can be provided all necessary information regarding my payments. If you are unaware of this information you would need to contact XXXX and update my reporting. I have no recollection of any business with XXXX and I would also like for you to prove that I owe XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX I do plan to take legal action thus you have already been provided proof showing debt is not valid and made of abuse of credit reporting. XXXX XXXX XXXX Last 4 : XXXX Previous information was submitted XX/XX/XXXX via email after sending correspondence week of XX/XX/XXXX via mail. ( XXXX previously advised they can not received proof via email only mail-stall tatic easy way for company to state they never received and or stall disputing process. ) Orginal disputed information contained snap shots showing XXXX XXXX XXXX balance XX/XX/XXXX last payment XX/XX/XXXX. When following up with XXXX to be sure receipt of information they stated they have received information and requested for me to send them further information such as contract/agreements made to resolve the balance. I then advised XXXX that since they purchased account they should have all information necessary regarding file and should not need me to send anything to verify. If they do not have information they have to go off of what was provided by their client and their client has provided them misinformation per credit reporting. I then sent the above information XX/XX/XXXX with attachments from credit karma showing balance has been resolved. Please help with this issue.

Be advised that this is a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g ( Sec. 809 ). This letter is being sent to Jefferson Capital Systems in response to a listing on my credit report. The listing states that I opened an account on XX/XX/2019 and have a balance of {$830.00}. THIS IS COMPLETELY FALSE. I NEVER OPENED AN ACCOUNT WITH ANYONE IN 2019. I DO NOT OWE THIS DEBT. THIS DEBT IS NOT MINE. THIS DEBT HAS NO RELATION TO ME AND I NEVER TOOK OUT ANY CREDIT IN RELATION TO THIS PURPORTED DEBT. There is NO contract or other instrument bearing my signature, and therefore Jefferson Capital Systems is attempting to collect a debt for which they have no account level documentation showing I owe it. Because there is no proof of such, and I do not owe this debt, I demand immediately for Jefferson Capital Systems to correct the erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I ask Jefferson Capital Systems to provide the following information to me and the CFPB : Please show evidence of your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? Please show evidence of the alleged debt, including specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature and ID to assure youre after the correct consumer. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. Jefferson Capital Systems failure to respond, on point, in writing, hand signed, and in a timely manner, will work as a waiver to any and all of their claims in this matter, and will entitle me to presume that Jefferson Capital Systems placed this on my credit report ( s ) in error and that this matter is permanently closed. There is no proof, because none exists! Correct the record and remove this invalid debt from all sources to which you have reported it. I am under contract to purchase a home and this invalid, incorrect, and erroneous listing is preventing me from moving forward in building my dream home. It is causing me distress both emotionally and physically.

I am filing a complaint of non-compliance against XXXX XXXX who sent a letter to on XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. This is formal complaint that you have failed to respond in timely matter to my dispute letter deposited by certified registered mail with USPS. ( have attached both certified returned receipts for record ). Federal law requires you to respond within thirty ( 30 ) days, yet you have failed to respond. Failure to comply with these federal regulations by credit reporting agencies are investigated by the FTC ( see 15 USC 41, et seq. ). I have maintain careful records and for your benefit, and as a gesture of goodwill final attempt to have you clear up this matter. You have 15 days to cure. ( I have attached both letter I sent to XXXX and XXXX ). The following on the letters needs to verified : In XXXX, the FTC held that the FCRA barred a debt buyer from " verifying a tradeline disputed by a consumer when it didn't posses the original documents. FTC allegations was that upon receiving a CDV form from a CRA that the debt buyer ( s ) and furnisher ( s ) they can not use the PCM for verification does not constitute an " investigation '' for purpose of section 1681s-2 ( b13 ), when a consumer disputes the accuracy of information reported by debt buyer ( s ) or furnisher ( s ), they should either verify the information with the original documents within the time period set forth in the FCRA or take all necessary steps to deleted the information from the files of all consumer reporting agencies to which the information was reported within 5 business days after receiving the consumer dispute, notify all consumer reporting agencies to which the information has been provided that the information is to be deleted from the file of the consumer who has disputed the account. Consent Decree Order, Section II. As per FTC opinion letter from Attorney General XXXX XXXX XXXX, you should be aware that a print out of a bill or itemized document does not constitute verification. I am again formally requesting a copy of VERIFIABLE PROOF ( of original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) you have on file ( Section 609 ( a ) of the accounts listed on my original letter.

I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX in an attempt to collect a debt in the amount of {$5700.00}. The letter clearly stated " Unless you notify this office within 30 days after receiving this notice that you dispute the validity of the debt or any portion thereof, the office will assume this debt is valid ''. This clearly means that prior to that 30 days, the office should not assume that the debt is valid yet on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a credit monitoring alert that I had a new collection account before I even received the letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX. This was reported by the company unlawfully and to make matters worse ; the item is showing as a collection item under the name Jefferson Capital System ( a company I have NEVER had communication with nor has an attempt been made to contact me ) and falsely reporting that the account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX. The letter further states that " If you notify this office in writing within 30 days from receiving this notice, that the debt or any portion thereof is disputed, this office will obtain verification of the debt or obtain a copy of a judgment and mail a copy of such judgement or verification ''. Please be advised I have requested VALIDATION { not verification } ( Notarized and Emailed on XX/XX/XXXX -- Still Within The 30 Days of XX/XX/XXXX ) of an item sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX by the original creditor/collection agency. I have received a response that clearly violates my rights. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts you post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) you have on file of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the above mentioned accounts.

This collection agency is furnishing an alleged debt that is on my consumer report ( XXXX XXXX and XXXX ) The collection Agency JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM which is on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX has not provided me with the proper validation according to 15 usc 1692g. Also they have violated 15 usc 1692f. I have not received any proof that there was a such agreement that expressly authorizes this debt collection agency to collect on an Alleged debt which is a violation of the FDCPA. I sent a debt validation letter on XX/XX/2021 and have not recieved any proof of the from them that there is an agreement in place pursuant to 15 usc 1692f ( 1 ) of the FDCPA that they can collect from me or that they even own the debt. This is a violation of my right to privacy. The company has also violated these laws. - 15 usc 1692b ( 2 ). Requesting location information from a family member saying i owe such debt - 15 usc 1692b ( 5 ) Using a symbol to indicate to the consumer that the debt collector is in the debt collection business - 15 usc 1692c ( a ) ( 1 ) calling the consumer at an unusual time or place - 15 usc 1692c ( a ) ( 3 ) calling at the consumers work place when it is prohibited to recieve such communication. - 15 usc 1692d ( 1 ) using the means of harm to damage my reputation - 15 usc 1692d ( 2 ) The use of profane language which is used to abuse the hearer or reader - 15 usc 1692d ( 5 ) Causing the telephone to ring repeatedly with intent to annoy, Abuse or harass any person at the called number - 15 usc 1692e ( 2 ) The false representation of the legal status of a debt - 15 usc 1692f ( 1 ) The collection of any amount unless such amount is expressly authorized by the agreement creating the debt - 15 usc 1692g ( a ) Failure to provide the 5 things to prove the comsumer owes a debt within 5 business days. There is over {$15000.00} listed in violations of the FDCPA and if this issue is not resolved i will pursue litigation with this company I know that the company is in violation of federal law. So if this company will not remove this debt that is clearly not mine from my consumer report i will be seeking monetary Relief of {$15000.00} for violations of the FDCPA.

JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM submitted a collection account to credit reporting agencies that was previously investigated, resolved and removed from my credit report. It appears XXXX XXXX XXXX sold the debt to JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM after the account was deleted from my credit report. I requested from XXXX to generate a bill to verify the debt, they were unable to generate a bill. I also communicated that both XXXX and this debt collector as well have never properly communicated to me that there was an outstanding debt and have never provided any documentation after several attempts requesting that they provide documentation. Once again in the report, they are reporting this account to be a XXXX account however when XXXX XXXX XXXX reported the account they reported the account as XXXX XXXX XXXX. These are invalid, undocumented, false statements and I have not received any documentation thus far to confirm the validity of this information. Below is the detail information from the prior investigation. REF # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - CFPB Dispute submitted on XX/XX/20 I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX to request verification of an alleged debt that showed up recently on my credit reports. Both companies were unable to provide verification. I requested they provide me with a bill and they communicated that they could not generate a bill. I requested from XXXX to generate a bill to verify the debt, they were also unable to generate a bill. I also communicated they never properly communicated to me that there was an outstanding debt. I was never notified of the debt. I am requesting documentation from them that consist of : Bill with itemized description of fees, Signed Contract, Copy of letter notifying me of an outstanding balance. Also these companies reported missed payments for the same month. My understanding is that only one of them can report information otherwise it looks like two separate debts and two separate late payments when in fact it should be 1. I reported this issue to all three credit reporting agencies. Some removed these item and XXXX did not. I am requesting that these companies provide proper documentation supporting the debt.

I recently saw this account added to all three of my credit reports, but have no knowledge and have received no notification of the debt. On my XXXX credit report it is listed twice as a collection and once as an active account in good standing. I don't understand this as I have no contract with this company. I have not received any written notification and have not been provided an opportunity to request verification and/or validation of this debt. I have no contractual agreement with XXXX XXXX at all. They are in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Act. I have now made disputes through XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. They must validate, verify, prove all debt with 100 % accuracy and they have not. They are violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act. XXXX XXXX must provide proof of any debt that I allegedly owe with copies of any contractual agreements bearing my signature. 2 weeks ago I called them asking to see this " collection '' and have yet to receive any information. They indicate I owe {$970.00}, but when I talked to an employee there he said they can lower it to ... so right there, they are reporting wrong. I was never given notice of this collection. I never signed anything with them and I also was not given the 30 day period to respond before the collection was added to my credit reports. It just showed up about 3 weeks ago within a few days of each other, and shows it has been reporting sinceXX/XX/XXXX, which is incorrect as this same debt was being reported by another agency and this was removed from ALL of my credit reports just last month, which means they are stating they were engaged in duplicate reporting. This needs to be removed IMMEDIATELY or as others said, I have no choice, but to sue them and bring them to court. XXXX is in full violation of the law and this needs to be taken today. I am also advising concerns that they do not have my proper info. They were not able to verify my correct address or refused to and wanted me to do so and I have not received any information from them regarding any recent activity from phone calls and or their supposed debt purchase and entry of information onto my credit reports for all 3 reporting agencies.

XX/XX/XXXX I was contacted by a collections agency regarding a delinquent debt with XXXX XXXX around {$110.00}. I told them I did not have any outstanding debts with XXXX and they had the wrong person. I followed up directly with XXXX XXXX, my cellphone provider, and XXXX XXXX validated that my account " has always been in good standing. '' Monday XX/XX/XXXX, at XXXX EST, I was contacted by " Jefferson Capital Systems '' headquartered in XXXX XXXX, Minnesota again on my personal cellphone number. The representatives name was XXXX and he was in calling from XXXX, XXXX. XXXX was collecting an outstanding debt as a result of a delinquent account held by XXXX XXXX in the amount around {$110.00}. I insisted that this was not my debt, stated I already told them the last representative this in XX/XX/XXXX, I had previously called XXXX to make certain my account was in good standing, and " Jefferson Capital Systems must stop calling me concerning an outstanding this debt with XXXX. '' XXXX pressed me to validate my date of birth and last four of my Social Security Numbers. I refused three times because I am not legally required tto do this, he is a stranger, and this debt collection is illegitimate & not mine. XXXX said he would read the last four Social Security numbers of the person responsible for the debt. I said that is illegal for him to do. I do not want to know their social security numbers, and I want nothing to do with this. I told him stop calling me. XXXX then said the only way the calling can stop is for him to read the last four social security numbers aloud to me and I had to say whether they were mine or not. If not mine, then and only then, I would stop receiving debt collection calls from " Jefferson Capital Systems concerning outstanding this debt with XXXX. '' I reluctantly agreed. XXXX read out loud the last four Social Security Numbers. I stated : " No. Those are NOT my last four Social Security numbers and you must stop calling me. '' He agreed to stop calling me.

A fraudulent account with XXXX XXXX was opened without my consent using my social security number. They charged {$1100.00} dollars, and I never received a bill or was notified that an account had been opened in my name until the amount was sent to collections. I began receiving letters from Jefferson Capital Systems ( the debt collector ) about this amount owed, as well as daily phone calls requesting that I pay. I contacted XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to dispute the charges as fraud identity theft, and after an investigation, they determined that I was not responsible for the charges on the account, and thus cleared any debt owed under my name in their system. They also said that they would send notice to all three credit bureaus that the debt was not legitimate. I also called Jefferson Capital on XX/XX/XXXX to try and clear the debt on their end, and they said they would open an investigation to the legitimacy of the debt. I gave them information regarding the results of XXXX 's claim dispute which stated that I did not owe the debt. The calls and collection letters did not stop. On XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX again to check on the status of my claim dispute, since I was still receiving collection letters and daily calls. They told me that they would send another notice to the credit bureaus and to contact Jefferson Capital. I contacted Jefferson Capital again on XX/XX/XXXX and they again told me that they would dispute the claim. I stopped receiving collection letters and phone calls around XX/XX/XXXX, but when I checked my credit report recently, I saw that I am still under collections for {$1100.00} by Jefferson Capital. I called XXXX again on XX/XX/XXXX to make sure that the dispute had been settled, and they sent yet another notice to the credit bureaus and recommended that I dispute the fraudulent debt with the bureaus directly. I also filed a local police report for identity theft on XX/XX/XXXX detailing the situation. Thought I was a victim of identity theft and my name has been cleared of all supposed debt by XXXX, my credit report is still being negatively impacted by the {$1100.00} in collections by the debt collector Jefferson Capital Systems.

I received calls asking for {$44.00} to XXXX and I told the person I didn't know what they were talking about and they had me do a complaint over the phone with them saying that I didn't know anything about the money. The were very admit that I did owe this {$44.00} because something that XXXX had done. I asked to speak with the manager and I thought that everthing had been taken care off ; then I received this letter from a Jefferson Capital. I called the number to ask what this was about and say that I didn't borrow {$44.00} the man starting asking odd questions so I asked to speak with a manager. He would not transfer to a manager said if I didn't tell him what he wanted then He would not help me. I tried for a second time and then told him that I would falllow up with an attorney. as I looked over the documents I noticed on the back of the frount page there was writing and it communicated information about The Federal Trade Commission and I tried to produce a complaint when was transfered to CDPB. Can you please help in this matter. thier contact informaion is Jefferson Capital Physical Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX XXXX ( This is what it says ) Debt Description : XXXX ACCOUNT Account # XXXX Current Creditor : Jefferson Capital Systems LLC JCS Reference # : XXXX Amount of the Debt : {$44.00} Unless you contact us in 30 days we will assume the debt id valid. The date of this letter was dated XX/XX/XXXX and I just recived it not toolong ago and this is XX/XX/XXXX. This this just is so odd they say that if I contact them within 30 days after the letter then they will give me a copy of the judgment against me. very odd. the whole thing is that I really have no Idea of what they are refering to in the first place and I believe they are doing this to a lot of people to get money.

On XX/XX/XXXX, My XXXX XXXX XXXX daughter opened the door and was handed a paper. When she asked what is it he said he is unsure and left without a signature or verification of whom he handed the paperwork to. I looked at the paperwork and it says I am being sued by a debt collector I never heard of before Jefferson Capital Systems and an attorney named XXXX XXXX XXXX. Suing me for a XXXX XXXX that was wrongly taken out of my possession in XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX. My truck was paid off, I spoke to a rep that clearly stated I paid over XXXX for the truck and she didnt know why they were saying I still owed payments, There were payments missing and no one could explain where my money was going. I requested that they review my phone calls for each time I called in to make a payment. She said she would email me some paperwork showing the truck had been paid off once, and then payments just disappeared. Once I received the email and tried to reopen it to save it, it was no longer available, and a few days later I walked outside and the truck was gone. When I called them they said I would have to pay over XXXX to get it back. This company completely ripped me off, stole money and truck from me. Each time I tried to call them after that I would always be placed on long holds and no reply. I never heard from them again. Now almost 4 years later this collection agency that I have never received any communication from is trying to sue me over a janky company that steals money from people. I wasn't able to verify or validate anything before they decided to sue me. I don't know if they are able to legally collect this alleged debt or if they are trying to steal from me like XXXX XXXX XXXX. I feel completely violated and harassed and this doesn't look good on my profile. Debts are supposed to be validated and verified BEFORE they are allowed to sue you, according to new laws they aren't supposed to try to collect at all. They are not the original creditor and just trying to find a way to get money off of a scam. They didn't properly reach out to me beforehand because they know this debt is not owed and tried to find a illegal way to obtain money.

I have only had XXXX XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX . I had XXXX XXXX since the XXXX 's. Then switched to XXXX XXXX XXXX when I moved to XXXX XXXX in XXXX, I moved back to XXXX in XXXX and started with XXXX then back to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was checking out my Credit report a few years ago and noticed there was a bunch of addresses, phone numbers, names, inquiries, & debts. I clicked on all the stuff that wasn't mine like XXXX. Time past, I forgot about it. I was able to get a free credit look through different places. I called XXXX and disputed a bunch of stuff. Nothing got removed. I would keep getting people from the XXXX. I called XXXX. I gave them my SSN, the agent said the name and address was not under XXXX or the address he gave me was not mine. I called XXXX again, and spoke with someone who managed to get some stuff off. The XXXX finally was gone. about 6 months ago I noticed there was inquires that was not mine. I called and spoke with someone who spoke English. She got rid of all the stuff that was not mine. then a few months later a new debt was there. It seemed that XXXX XXXX bought XXXX and now they reported it. I dug through all my bank statements. I was able to go as far back as XXXX. I highlighted my XXXX XXXX XXXX payments. I told them that I couldn't have lived in two places at the same time and have two different phone bills. It didn't make sense. Even with the proof, I called XXXX XXXX, they had not go one call from XXXX to check if that account belonged to me. They said they would have a record. I mailed the same proof to XXXX XXXX to dispute this. They say send supporting evidence, and I do and they still will not remove this. If you look at my credit, it was good then you can see where XXXX came out of nowhere. The XXXX dropped off and now it's like they found a loophole to keep putting a debt back on a credit report after statues of Limitations. This sounds illegal. It's not even mine. I don't know what else to do. The police can't do anything except make a report. My wallet was stolen at the beach at one time. I don't remember when exactly. I lost my passport many years ago. I reported this all.

I have been contacted regarding an account for a debt that is not mine by XXXX, representing Jefferson Capital for an account associated with XXXX. This account is not mine. When I informed the representatives that the debt was not valid and in the process of repeated attempts to get verification of the debt, XXXX/ Jefferson Capital committed the following violations of fair debt collection practices : 1. Representatives from Jefferson Capital, XXXX, or XXXX contacting my family members ( I am assuming you got this information from social media ) attempting to reach " XXXX regarding a business matter '' for a debt that is over XXXX XXXX XXXX. - When I returned their call with my daughter, a lawyer, on line and she requested verification of the debt and an end to the calls, we were given a fake name for the person they were looking for regarding this account ( XXXX ). 2. Calls to my cell phone regarding this account where, after I denied the account was valid, I was told that they would serve me papers at work, at home, " or wherever '' by the district court which was an implicit threat to sue me on a debt that is not only not mine, but well past the statute of limitations for debt collection lawsuits. 3. Representatives from XXXX repeatedly refusing to provide account information to my authorized legal representative despite my giving verbal authorization for such communication and be being on the phone line during the conversation. - XXXX also repeatedly denied being in possession of the account to my authorized legal representative despite sending me requests for payments. - Requests for verification of this debt were repeatedly denied to my authorized legal representative with XXXX insisting they did not have the account despite having sent me a bill and attempting to call me regarding this account that same day! 4. Reporting of a debt that is over XXXX XXXX XXXX to the credit bureaus. - This needs to be removed immediately as this is not a valid debt. - This needs to be removed immediately as this debt is over XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Good Afternoon, My name is XXXX XXXX and I am in need of assistance in dealing with a debt collector by the name of Jefferson Capital Systems XXXX. They have been reporting to my XXXX of my credit bureaus false debts. When I contact this company and provide them with my XXXX XXXX XXXX they state that they can not help me because the information they have does not match with what I gave them, this is obviously a huge problem because this is debt that I have no idea about and is not owed by me or is tied to my social security number. They have been reporting for XXXX or more years now and is hurting my credit because of the false debt they have been reporting. I have hired a credit repair agency about XXXX years ago, and even they have submitted verification letters on my behalf, and still, the credit bureaus and Jefferson Capital are claiming that the debt is verified, however, the debt is never verified with me based on my information that I give to them. This seems to be unfair to me and has actually caused me financial harm because of the XXXX false debt collections accounts that XXXX XXXX has reported on all three of my credit bureaus. XXXX asking you guys for your help as a collections agency is not or should not be allowed to keep reporting accounts that can not be verified using my XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX Whom ever the XXXX accounts belong to, thats whom they need to report to their credit bureaus and collect from the person whos information they have. This is very unfair to me. I have contacted them in several ways to have them remove the XXXX accounts of all three of my credit bureaus, and they keep refusing to remove it as they keep saying the information is valid, even though its not. If it was an actual debt that I owed, then they should be able to verify me so I can pay the debt off, but, that simply is not the case and not so way to remove when they cant verify either accounts with my XXXX XXXX XXXX, this means the XXXX accounts belong to someone else and they just keep harming me. Please see attached where Jefferson Capital is reporting to all three of my bureaus. Please assist and advise

Jefferson Capital put a collection on my credit reports without my knowledge and in doing so, this violated the FDCPA Collection Practice by placing a collection account on my credit report without sending a letter to me. Please be advised this is not a refusal to pay a debt, but a notice pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. I have no knowledge of this account with XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$2200.00}. They also stated per my credit reports that it was originally over XXXX XXXX dollars and that I made a payment last year. I have never made any payments and was never notified of this debt before it showed up on my report. It is fraudulent and not my account. Upon further research it has been found that even if this was a valid debt which it's not it would have gone to XXXX not Jefferson Capital Systems when they closed in XX/XX/2019. I request that you please verify the following information to assist identifying whether this debt is valid : 1. Full original account number 2. Date original account opened 3. Any written agreement ( s ) between myself and the original creditor stating I agreed to pay alleged debt 3. Consumer address at which original account was opened 4. Date of first delinquency 5. Itemized calculation of alleged debt If Jefferson Capital Systems is unable to provide the above identifying account information I will have no recourse but to presume the debt invalid and/or fraudulent and request account deletion from all credit reporting agencies without further discussion of payment in full or partial settlement. This is my attempt to verify the validity of this alleged debt and I appreciate your transparency and cooperation. Absolutely no phone calls. If correspondence is initiated by JCS in any manner other than permitted I will cease all communication ( invoking my legal right to request JCS cease communication ) with the presumption that the debt is invalid and that I own zero responsibility ( in part or whole ) for the repayment of said debt. Thank you for your assistance.

I received an attempt to collect a debt in the amount of {$5400.00} letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX. The letter clearly stated " Unless you notify this office within 30 days after receiving this notice that you dispute the validity of the debt or any portion thereof, the office will assume this debt is valid ''. This clearly means that prior to that 30 days, the office should not assume that the debt is valid yet on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a credit monitoring alert that I had a new collection account which was reported by the company unlawfully and to make matters worse ; the item is showing as a collection item under the name Jefferson Capital System ( a company I have NEVER had communication with nor has an attempt been made to contact me ) and falsely reporting that the account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX. The letter further states that " If you notify this office in writing within 30 days from receiving this notice, that the debt or any portion thereof is disputed, this office will obtain verification of the debt or obtain a copy of a judgment and mail a copy of such judgement or verification ''. Please be advised I have requested VALIDATION { not verification } ( Notarized and mailed via USPS Within The 30 Days of XX/XX/XXXX ) of an item sold to XXXX by the original creditor/collection agency. I have received a response that clearly violates my rights. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts you post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) you have on file of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the above mentioned accounts.

I received an email communication from XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX informing me that XXXX was attempting to collect a debt on behalf of Jefferson Capital, who had purchased the debt on a XXXX account from XXXX. Upon inspecting the claim, I saw that the address for the account was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX. I have never lived there and have not used XXXX at any time in the last five years. I also never received any communication about the activation of this account, nor any missing payment for this account. I believe somebody registered the account under my name, yet somehow without my email or phone number. I am not quite sure how the account was tied to me. I explained the situation over the phone to a representative at XXXX in detail and sent to the company via email another explanation. XXXX then communicated over email that they would not longer be servicing the debt. Jefferson Capital then contacted me via mail stating that additional information is needed for my dispute. I attempted to log into their site with the JCS reference number provided to me and last four digits of my social security number. The JCS site would not let me log into their site to continue my dispute. JCS provides the option to call their customer service line, but I work long day hours and do not have time to settle the issue over the phone during business hours. I am in effect trapped due to JCS ' inability to manage their IT systems or open their call lines at convenient hours. I am also not sure why I have to contend with two debt collectors for this debt, especially if XXXX has, after collecting information, decided they will not service the case. I would like to submit this complaint against both XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and Jefferson Capital Systems. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX first failed to verify the identity of the person creating an account with their service, then made money selling this fraudulent account debt to Jefferson Capital Systems. Jefferson Capital Systems attempted to collect the debt through XXXX, and after XXXX dropped the case, continued to harass me about this debt.

I was a customer with XXXX back around XXXX. Early Spring of XXXX I had a car wreck that resulted in my having to undergo XXXX. I contacted XXXX immediately and explained that I was n't going to be working for the next three months, they said we can hold your account until you get back to work. So, I had to ensure my bill was up to date with charges and paid for before they would do that and I did exactly what they said to do. When the three months passed and my doctor cleared me to return to work, I went back to Verizon around XX/XX/XXXX to restart my service and they told me that I did n't have an account with them and my old number which I currently do not remember had been given out as a pay as you go phone. This went on for 6 months of calling XXXX, going to stores, and even talking to corporate over this issue. All the while they kept stating that I did n't owe them any money which I asked them repeatedly and said that I will pay to get my service back because I liked it. Well, low and behold, starting around XX/XX/XXXX I started to receive collection calls about twice a week since and I have disputed this multiple times without ever getting a response from anyone. Now, Jefferson Capital Systems has this phantom collection account which they told me was still active even though XXXX has said repeatedly that I never had an account with them. So, XXXX and the other collection companies, which is now on the fourth collection team and they keep asking me for paperwork that I do n't have and XXXX has never proven I owe them any money wants me to pay {$1000.00}. Like I said previously, I have disputed this several times and gotten no response from anyone, Jefferson Capital even stated it showed it was in dispute, yet, they had info on this account either. This is now impacting my ability to obtain housing because this after not showing on my credit for almost 2 years all of a sudden a few days ago just shows up. I am trying to buy a house because my current place of residence is being sold and this is keeping me from being able to do so, I will not become homeless because of this.

I am in receipt of your companys letter informing me you are handling the collection of the account mentioned above. However after reviewing my records, I am unable to find any documentation of any contractual relationship between XXXX XXXX XXXX. and myself, XXXX XXXX which makes you a person entitled to enforce a commercial claim against me. This is not a request for any verification or validation. This is a request for proof of contract, to substantiate your claim. Therefore, provide me a certified copy of the original contract, with my signature, specifically naming your company as a person entitled to enforce a commercial claim against me. Certification can be done through the presence of a notary public who duly swear the copy made is in fact a copy of the original paper contract in question. Your failure to respond and provide strict proof of contract will constitute your tactic agreement that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX are not entitled to enforce a claim against me. In the event you continue your collection efforts against me without providing proof of contract, I may do one or more of the following : 1. File a complaint with the Attorney General. 2. File a complaint with the FTC, 3. File a lawsuit against you in U.S. Courts for Harassment, fraud and invasion of privacy and attempt extortion. You have 30 days to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist all collection effects and immediately remove my account from your office database. In the event you transfer this account to an attorney without providing proof of contract, he will be immediately reported the STATE BAR ASSOCIATION and the PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY FUND for code of ethics violations. Please check the age date on this account. Look up DOLA ( Date of last activity ) and see the Statue of Limitations by Law makes this account unable to be collected. Please Cease and Desist all collection efforts and communications. You may inform me that this account has been removed from your office files and records as requested within the 30 days.

My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC for a number of federal violations. I have never given Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). I have never received any documentation requesting validation from Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me ( the consumer ) prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them such as a trilateral contract. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

A year ago a Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC contacted me claiming I owe a debt that I know for fact never happened. They claim I had a XXXX account years ago. I never made any large transactions using XXXX. I disputed this claim and reported it as fraud. They said they would delete it from their system. I contacted XXXX and they said that I never had an account and show no records or any transaction. They believe that someone stole my identity or this was a scam. On or about XX/XX/22 another company XXXX, XXXX contacted me about the same debt owed. The original company Jefferson Capital lied to me and did not delete the debt, instead the soled my information to another company XXXX. I contacted them and gave them the same information. Neither company will provide me with any details as evidence or documentation to this fraudulent transaction. Both companies REFUSE to provide any evidence or documentation. Both companies continue to lie, and harrassment. Again I asked to dispute this debt and mark as fraud. On further investigation I have found out that XXXX doesn't even have account numbers as provided by these companies and as such the account number provided by XXXX XXXX is fictitious. Both companies are financial fraudsters using made up debts and account numbers. They are scammers. Also after investigation XXXX and associated reviews and reports online I find out that they have numerous complaints with others doing the same scam scheme. I want this abusive fraudulent behavior and contact to stop immediately and for these companies to be held liable for this conduct. Both companies should be investigated. I will seek legal action against both companies if this does not stop immediately. If they sell my personal information again to any other company legal action will be taken. The original personal information was not provided by me and I question how they obtained my information in the first place. Possible identity theft used to scam. If they report this debt to the credit union I will seek legal actions and sue for damages, unfair practices, harrassment, etc.

Back in XXXX or XXXX, I became I XXXX with my company. We have our cell phones and technology paid for by the our employer. I called XXXX XXXX and had BOTH my cell phone and tablet transferred to the business account. I was clear about transferring both items. The XXXX employee stated that they just needed to get the clearance from my employer. My phone bill was transferred however my tablet was not. I was not contacted about this until a much later date. I didnt hear anything about an outstanding bill until I went into the XXXX XXXX location in XXXX XXXX a couple years later after having an issue with my phone. I remember the store employee telling me that she shouldnt be discussing this with me because its already been turned over to collections. That conversation had to be in XXXX. When I check my credit score, it states that this wont fall off until XXXX!! The tablet was in collection in XXXX so how will this not come off of my credit score until XXXX?? How is this possible. That is WAY past the 7 years something takes to come off of someones credit report. MULTIPLE TIMES, likely XXXX times, I spoke with the collection company that XXXX hired to collect my debt. I requested them to have XXXX XXXX contact to to explain why they never placed the tablet onto our business account in the first place. They continued to call and harass me while I was working for months even years after I requested XXXX contact me and they stop. I want XXXX to explain their error that caused this debt in the first place. My credit has been suffering for years and will continue to suffer because of XXXX error and lack of communication about the debt. The debt is a small amount and can be easily paid. However, this was an error on XXXX part and Jefferson Capital continues to reopen this collection. It should have been off my record years ago but because of an error and Jefferson Capitals shady dealings this continues to be on my credit. This is really a complaint for Jefferson Capital and XXXX XXXX but since the original error was made by XXXX, they need to have most of the responsibility.

To begin, I tried contacting XXXX XXXX to retrieve details on information on this credit account. They told me it had already been sent to collections with Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, and that I would have to contact them directly to review and resolve my account. I also tried to login to XXXX XXXX website using my login information, and they have removed my access and account entirely which has refrained me from any access to review this credit account and details of information associated with my credit account. This account opening date is incorrect. The date listed that it was opened is on : XX/XX/XXXX. The correct opening date was on : XX/XX/XXXX. I also know that the amount owed is incorrect. I attempted to contact the company to dispute the errors on XX/XX/XXXX. When speaking with the representative, I tried to explain the errors of information that were incorrect on this credit account. The representative proceeded to not listen and continuously ask me how I was going to pay off my balance. We argued back and fourth. I told the representative that I wasnt calling to pay my balance, I told the representative that I was calling to dispute the errors. The representative would not listen or acknowledge what I was saying by completely ignoring my questions on dispute and instead aggressively asking when I would pay my balance. I finally said that I was not paying anything until the errors on my account were disputed. The representative proceeded to tell me that if I did not pay my balance that day, XX/XX/XXXX, that the representative could not guarantee that my credit report would not be further impacted from refusal to pay. I then proceeded to tell them that I wasnt refusing to pay, I corrected the representative by saying that I was refusing to pay until my dispute concerns regarding the incorrect information on my credit account were resolved. The representative then told me that if I do not pay by XXXX that day, XX/XX/XXXX, that my offer amount to resolve my account would not be valid and that it would further impact my credit negatively.

This negligent on XXXX part, will leave my personal information permanently available for access at any time. My name, date of birth and social security number are never changing ; therefore, I am at risk of identity theft at any time. Im a very private person therefore knowing that my personal information is in the hands of The XXXX XXXX Hacker I will forever have to look over my shoulder, check my credit score for accuracies, and fear of someone using my personal information, this has caused me a lot of mental and emotional stress. Credit reporting laws ensure that your organization report only 100 % accurate information, due to the XXXX XXXX Security Breach your company is in direct violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

To whom it may concern ; I have recently reviewed my credit report and had noticed huge discrepancies. I have noticed your agency, Jefferson capital systems, a collector of debts, attempting to collect a debt I am not aware of. I have never received a letter of debt validation from your agency. I believe you are legally bound to do so before collecting on said debt. I, as a consumer, has the right to validate and or dispute the alleged debt. If youd be so kind to provide me with a few things as proof of validation of the alleged debt owed and any late payments accrued I would greatly appreciate it. A copy of the original contract or original purchase agreement that created the alleged debt. if the original contract is sent, it must include signatures for all parties. Any agreement sent must be with the original creditor and must include the original terms and conditions of the agreement that created the alleged debt, including all addendums and riders. In addition, please send proof of chain of ownership of the alleged debt and include proof of assignment for each change of ownership, Proof of chain of ownership must be from the original creditor to the current alleged owner without any break in the chain. Also include a full accounting history from the original creditor including the date and leading amount of each payment and the Date of First Delinquency to the collection status. lf any interest or fees have accrued or been added onto the balance, please send proof that such fees are lawful and agreed upon in the original purchase agreement. Proof you are legally allowed to collect on alleged debt in the state of Pennsylvania, including collect on alleged Third-Party Debt Collection Bonds. Also send proof that you sent the legally required notices to me before reporting this alleged debt to any consumer reporting agencies, including any copies of the original notice and any letter tracking your firm maintains. FTC vs Midwest recovery systems make clear that it " debt parking without proper notices is a violation of consumers rights.

I received an envelope containing paperwork for garnishment, but I havent been sued by this company. The envelope didnt have a return address on it and the postmark was significantly later than the date of the summons : XX/XX/2020. Once I opened it, it appeared to be legal paperwork from a court. The plaintiff is Jefferson Capital System LLC. Theres no information identifying the plaintiff other than their name. No phone number, no address. The contact information for the attorney is invalid ; the phone number has an odd ring that sounds like a record thats skipping. I XXXX Jefferson Capital System and called their toll-free number. There was a recording indicating that callers can get debt information by entering a file number, which strangely wasnt listed anywhere on the paperwork I received, an account number, which would be assigned by Jefferson, or a social security number. Theres no file number on the paperwork, nor is there an account number. I had to use my social security number. The recording indicated that theres no record in their system containing my SSN. Im not surprised since I dont owe them any money. Lastly, I noticed that this paperwork was supposedly sent to my employer. My listed employer is a company I never knew existed until today. How can I possibly work there? This could be a scam, but I see it as harassment. Rogue collection agencies think that they can scare uninformed consumers into sending them money. I dont operate like that. I will not even listen to, nor respond to anyone who doesnt approach me correctly. I have no idea what this debt is or who it belongs to. I have never gotten one phone call from this company. Ive never received any other notices from this company. The legal contact listed on the paperwork is bogus. I should be enjoying my evening right now. Instead, Im wasting my em time responding to a false allegation. I threw their paperwork in the trash at the gas station when I stopped to fill up my car. After thinking about it, I got angry and decided to file a complaint with CFPB.

I recently pulled my credit report and had XXXX acct listed as being in collections, I wanted to gather information about the debt so I contacted the collections agency listed on my CR. The company Jefferson Capital XXXX informed me that I needed to speak with their collections division XXXX. Upon speaking with the Rep assigned to my case she informed me that since I requested debt validation when they called me XXXX that my acct was in dispute and could discuss my acct unless I sent a email saying I no longer dispute, I complied with the request in an effort to gather further information. The Rep told me she would call me back once the dispute code was removed by another dept, before the call ended I asked her why they never provided debt validation to me she said it was due to them not being able to verify my address. I told her that seemed odd seeing that they had my phone number and their client had pulled my CR several times in the months before my request, she was unable to provide valid reasoning and the call ended. This conversation took place on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX she never called me back so I called her and was informed the required actions had not taken place and she would call back once it did, again I complied but at XXXX est I called back and spoke with a different rep named XXXX who informed me that the previous rep neglected to inform me that they did request debt validation from Jefferson Capital Systems and within 2 days of my request XX/XX/XXXX, Jefferson Capital Systems advised XXXX XXXX to cease collections activities immediately as they could not validate the debt. It has been 5 months since my request yet Jefferson Capital Systems continues to knowing reporting negative information on my CR causing me to be denied credit. I emailed both companies shortly after ending my call with XXXX at XXXX XXXX and outlined the law as stated in the Fair credit reporting act and ask them to stop their activity instead of doing the right thing they had a rep contact me today in an attempt to collect the debt.

Today, a man showed up at my door. I answered the door, and he asks for XXXX XXXX. I told him that hes not here. Then, he begins asking me a serious of questions like : Does he live here? How long have you been here? Where is he?. I felt extremely uncomfortable with that line of questioning considering this is a complete stranger asking me questions about someones whereabouts and he didnt even acknowledge who he was. In addition, I suddenly felt more like he was trying to verify if I was alone. So my replies were No. I then asked him why the line of questioning and who he was, he proceeded to say he was a process server with papers for XXXX XXXX from the XXXX XXXX XXXX Courts. I didnt believe him, and told him to leave. I saw papers in his hand, and they didnt look anything like what could be considered court documents. I watched him leave from the window. Not even a few minutes later, he returned, and knocked again. Im not even sure why I opened the door again, but I did. As soon as I did, he asks XXXX XXXX, right? I told him that he was told to leave, and now hes shown up with a different name. He yelled this time over me, I yelled at him to ( please pardon my language ) Get the XXXX off of my property and dont come back here. Even after I slammed the door, he continued to yell at the door. I tried getting a license plate, model and make of his vehicle, but I couldnt see the back or front of his car. He eventually left, but I heard my storm door open and close before he did. I opened my door and found papers. The front page had information about debt collection, and after flipping through a few of the other pages, theyre blank and certainly nothing filed with the courts here. I was instructed to call the police if he returned. If this is some abrasive tactic of collecting some debt, aggressively approaching someones home especially with children present is extremely inappropriate and is harassment. Thinking clearly now, I shouldnt have opened the door a second time, but obviously, I do not want anyone else at my door.

In XX/XX/XXXXof former friend use my information and created an account with XXXX I have reached and notified XXXX that I was not the one who made the account and that my information was used with out I never purchased anything from XXXX myself however XXXX did not close the account nor did they conduct any investigation to my claim I haven't heard from XXXX since the first bill until I was served papers in XX/XX/XXXX almost two years later saying that Not only was this in collections but they have sold my account and information to another company I was never notified of the sale or them even planning to to sell through the filed Court claim I learned that the company that they sold it to was Jefferson Capital Systems LLC collection agency. In the bill of sale/purchase agreement it clearly states that Jefferson capital systems has to update XXXX with any payment information that is concurrent and dates of payment and XXXX has to report those changes to the credit report bureau promptly and both companies failed to do so.they have already gone through the court process and had this account to be garnished from my job a year later they did garnish my paychecks starting from XX/XX/XXXX until it's completely paid off from XXXX which is my place of work my issue is that all my credit report it does not reflect to which collection agency XXXX sold my account to or who purchased that account nor does it have an update stating that the account was paid in full and is closed and been satisfied instead of says it's delinquent and it's really putting a big red mark on my credit I would like that do you have updated I believe I should have me at my money back due to the fact that is not wasn't me who opened the account but at this time I just would like to have my information updated on my credit report report there is no report from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC even having this account or that it was in collections that it was open and they're working on suing me and it doesn't say that I was garnished and paid it off last year

On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I was served with a civil warrant with a court date of XXXX XXXX, XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on behalf of Jefferson Capital Systems LLC ( Original Creditor is : XXXX ). After several failed attempts to contact Jefferson Capital Systems LLC by telephone, on XXXX XXXX, XXXX I filed a complaint with the XXXX trying to collect information on the account before I had to appear in court. On the night of XXXX XXXX, XXXX they replied to the complaint where I did n't receive access to any documents from them to verify the account until XXXX XXXX, XXXX AFTER my court appearance. Therefore, not only did Jefferson Capital Systems LLC never provided me with any information regarding the account before they filed the suit against me but they also did n't give me adequate time to verify the account information before the account was turned over to the attorney 's office. I also believe that Jefferson Capital Systems LLC is reporting false and inaccurate information on my credit report. The account number they show on my credit report does not match the account number they filed the suit against me on but the original creditor 's balance and dates match my credit reports prior to XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I do n't have my credit report for XXXX & XXXX that date could actually be an earlier date. They are reporting a opening date of XXXX and the original date the account was open was XXXX XXXX. They are also reporting from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX a monthly payment of {$33.00} that I have n't paid. The last payment I made was on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX of {$33.00} which is reflected on the Statement of Account Activity that they provided to me after my court date. Additionally the balance on the suit filed is : {$940.00} which reflects the balance on XXXX statement dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and continued at that balance until XXXX XXXX at which time Jefferson Capital Systems LLC increased the balance to {$1100.00} which was after they turned the account over to the attorney to have the suit was filed against me in XXXX XXXX.

1 ) On XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a dispute with XXXX when I noticed that someone had opened up an account with XXXX using my information, in XX/XX/XXXX, and that XXXX XXXX XXXX was the agency doing the collections. The bill is for {$1500.00}. This has ruined my credit! This fraudulent account that was opened with my information was not even possible to have been made by me, because at that time, I was in the process of moving out of state, already had a phone through another carrier, and certainly did not need another. I did not have a XXXX account, nor did I open up one in XX/XX/XXXX. I did not make any purchases with XXXX, nor was I making any payments prior to XX/XX/XXXX, as I did not have any XXXX products. 2 ) My husband and I suffered identity theft when XXXX, the national company that parents XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX, was the victim of a massive cyber attack. We were notified by XXXX that we were also victims of the attack, and that their " XXXX '' company was going to monitor our credit. This was supposed to be a 24-month protection. ( I found out later that they had been lax in their service, and that there was no credit monitoring for about a year. ) 3 ) I've had identity theft problems some years before that with : a ) someone who had opened up a phone account in the state of XXXX with another carrier. This took months to clear up. b ) someone who bought a dining set in my name. I was able to have this cleared up thanks to my bank. The perpetrator, a woman, was caught and put in jail. 4 ) I received a report back from XXXX saying that the company declares the information to be accurate. The details they state on the report actually prove it could not have been me. 5 ) I have read that I have the right to ask that this information be blocked from my file, and will be taking action for it to be blocked. 6 ) I suggest a new way of doing business, because with all the cyber attacks going on, American people are being victimized right and left, with no real means of protecting themselves.

This is the last email I sent them. I received a typed letter stating because of the age of this debit they legally can not report this on my credit or sue me but I could still pay on good faith. This is your notice from I, XXXX XXXX stated in my last email You are legally required to provide the following UNDER THE FAIR DEBT COLLECTIONS ACT the original signed contract by me and the original creditor, original documentation from the original creditor assigning you to the debt or original documentation that you own the debt. You have yet to provide original documentation validating the debt. You sent me a generic form that stated this debit was too old to report on my credit and past the timeline of suing because the age of the account and legally you can not report this on my credit. I have been called me multiple times day and night. I was also threatened with arrest and I was cussed out and called nasty names. Where is the original signed agreement with my signature and the original creditor? You have failed to validate this debit. This debit is not mine and its been 3 months so way past allotted time to validate this. You are legally required to provide validation of this debt. Threatening to report this invalid debt on my credit unless I write you in 30 days after I have asked for this information twice and you are ignoring my request for proof is against the fair debt collection practices act. You legally can not report this to the credit bureaus until you validate this debt that Im disputing. If you have already reported this on all of my credit reports you legally have to contact all of them and tell them this debt is being disputed until you validate it. Under the fair debt collections act you legally have to provide me the original documentation from the original creditor and verification that you own or have been assigned the debt by the original creditor. All collections act UNDER THE FAIR DEBIT COLLECTIONS ACT are to stop until YOU VALIDATE THIS DEBT. Signed by XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX.

I have been sued by Jefferson Capital on an old credit card ( Salute card ) I opened in XX/XX/XXXX, I provided them with a copy of my old XXXX credit report. it 's listed it as satisfactory account closed without any outstanding debt. I communicated this info to the law office collecting the debt on behalf of Jefferson Capital. I was told that the account number does not match what they have. I mailed a letter to original creditor ( salute card ), they responded that my account was old and therefore was removed and purged from their system. They never provided me with complete accounting of the debt nor whether the debt was transferred or sold.As matter of fact, I was only given one copy of generic statement. I also point out that Jefferson Capital was sued by XXXX back in XX/XX/XXXX and a settlement was reached. This is a deceitful tactic from Jefferson Capital to report the account under wrong account number to give them leverage to sue by providing the accurate account number this time.Since my account was closed in XX/XX/XXXX, I never received any collection letters from Salute that I owed money until I received notification from the court before small claim in XX/XX/XXXX. They levied my house and tied my hands to not be able to refinance to pay for my kids college tuition. I tried to settle the account even though I do n't owe anything to them, I pleaded with them and provided them with proof of financial hardship but they ignore my offers, emails and phone calls. I only wanted to settle so they can free up my title but they are just playing games with me and do n't have the courtesy to respond back to me. I was honest and told them the reason of my settlement and that I am pressed of time to finish my refinance in order to pay my college tuition. They are just taking advantage of my situation and my emotional distress. I can provide with any supporting documents. I also would like to reference the lawsuit against Jefferson Capital in XX/XX/XXXX, Case XXXX XXXX XXXX Filed XXXX/XXXX/XXXX

When pulling credit report and realized these damages on report. According to the 15 USC 1681 law there should not be any damages on my credit report especially unverified! It is a defamation to my character! I recently disputed this account with the credit reporting bureaus and reporting company, and the information was reported as verified and accurate. I'm sure we understand that most disputes are often conducted using software, such as e-Oscar, and that the software can have limitations when it comes to completing a proper investigation of records. I am requesting AGAIN that all parties conduct an investigation as outlined in the FCRA Section 623 enforceable by FACTA 312 which affords me the right to request that the information furnisher conduct a reasonable investigation of the information being reported to the credit bureaus. Which I have sent a letter out to them and credit bureaus! If unable to perform a reasonable investigation, or they are unable to locate the necessary documents to investigate my dispute ; then by required by the FCRA to remove the negative information from my credit reports, which can also include complete removal of the account. Furthermore, per FCRA Mandates, it is required that this misinformation be forevermore blocked from re-reporting attempts, now or in the future by company and/or any entity. I let them know if they were able to conduct a proper investigation of the records for this account, and have identified the information reporting as being fully accurate and complete then please send me an explanation of the methods used, and a description of the records reviewed, when they conducted their investigation ; including, but not limited to, sending a copy of that information to me so I can conduct my own investigation into the accuracy of records and verify that a reasonable investigation was completed.This complaint is an attempt to correct the false or misleading information being reported on my credit reports and to correct all records.

In XXXX, I switched my phone service from XXXX to XXXX. XXXX offered a promotion to pay off any balance owed to an individual 's current provider to switch to XXXX. I went into the XXXX storeand confirmed with a XXXX representativethat XXXX would pay XXXX. The representative assured me that no further action was required from me. In XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from XXXX stating that my account was delinquent and in collections. This was the first I received notice that XXXX had not paid the {$270.00} balance, since speaking with the XXXX representative in the store. I called XXXX to explain the situation. After several phone calls between XXXX and XXXX, XXXX agreed to issue a pre-paid visa card with the amount listed on the final XXXX bill. I then called XXXX to have them send me a physical copy of the final bill. I explained that XXXX would pay the outstanding amount with a copy of the final bill that enumerated the unpaid amounts. XXXX refused, stating that they no longer had that information on file because my account had gone to collections. I subsequently sent XXXX a letter requesting that they validate the debt, which did not happen. I ran my credit score through XXXX recently and discovered that a new company, XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX, appeared as a negative report. I contacted XXXX and learned the they were attempting to collect the XXXX bill, despite providing no notice aside from damaging my XXXX XXXX. I explained the situation to the XXXX representative, but the representative simply repeated his generic script. Speaking to a manager resulted in a similar unwillingness to help rectify the situation. In short, I am at the mercy of these companies. I have attempted to resolve this issue with XXXX but have been met with indifference. XXXX continues to demand payment from me for a debt that belongs to XXXX, evidenced by XXXX willingness to issue payment for the debt. My credit score continues to suffer harm simply because due diligence is inconvenient for XXXX.

I received a collection notice from your office on XX/XX/2019 that was dated for XX/XX/2019. In this notice you mentioned that you were representing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and that they were the owner of an account that is allegedly owed by me. I would like to dispute the validity of this accused debt as I have NEVER owned an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX so how can they own an account that you are stating is owed by me. Are they a debt buyer? Was there a bill of sale or receipt of the sales transaction? I want to know the exact amount that the debt was purchased for if thats the case. If you are representing them are you advising that you are an attorney? If not, how can you be representing them. Was there a power of attorney given to you by the alleged creditor that warrants permission for you to collect money from me? If you are a debt collector this is very misleading and a violation of the FDCPA Section 1962E for misleading representation. If you were assigned this debt you will need to produce a letter of assignment from the owner of this account or a bill of sale showing the purchasing transaction confirming that YOU are entitled to the compensation of this alleged amount owed. Furthermore, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has also violated FDCPA Section 1692C ( B ) for disclosure to a third party in connection with the collection of an alleged debt. Outside of myself, the original creditor and the credit reporting agency they were not authorized to disclose any information to a third party, including YOURSELF unless you are the debt collectors attorney. Please notify your client of their negligence and deceptive acts. I would like this debt to seize effectively immediately and further collection activity to be blocked. Please send me a letter confirming your compliance to avoid further escalation of this matter to State and Federal governing entities for investigation of XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I will await your response within 30 days.

Upon receipt of the Interrogatories and Admissions, I completed and returned them along with a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX explaining my exempt status and my Social Security XXXX Award Letter. I advised them that the only income I had was Social Security XXXX, which was exempt from collection.The next thing I received in the mail was Note The letter stated that if I choose to ignore the letter, Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. may seek to enforce the judgement through remedies that it typically seeks, such as obtaining a court order to garnish my wages, levying my bank account, or placing a lien against my home I find this threatening, manipulative and harassing since they are making threats to try to get me to pay on a debt that is clearly exempt from collection activity and illegal to pursue in regard to garnishment, levying or liens. In addition, Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. is not a creditor but a debt buyer. They are not collecting for the original creditor only for their own profit. They paid pennies on the dollar to purchase the debt, which was not purchased from XXXX or XXXX, but purchased from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to their threats of pursuing more court collection activity they are causing physical, mental and emotional problems for me. This is not good due to my fragile physical health already, I am asking for your assistance in getting them to understand that my income is exempt and therefore, they have no legal right according to law to pursue collection of this debt.

According to an email communication dated XX/XX/2022, which I have attached as evidence, XXXX confirmed that my account balance was {$0.00}. This email clearly indicates that I owe no outstanding debt to XXXX. However, to my surprise, I recently discovered that Jefferson Capital Systems has reported this debt on my credit report, despite the balance being {$0.00}. This action by Jefferson Capital Systems has negatively impacted my creditworthiness and is causing significant distress. Attempts to Resolve the Issue : In an effort to rectify this matter, I have made numerous attempts to contact Jefferson Capital Systems regarding their erroneous debt collection efforts. I sent the aforementioned email communication, both via email and mail, to their listed contact addresses. Unfortunately, I have not received any response from them, nor have they acknowledged the evidence provided. Request for Intervention : I kindly request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 's intervention in this matter. I believe that Jefferson Capital Systems ' actions are unjust and in violation of my rights as a consumer. Specifically, I would like the following actions to be taken : Investigation : Conduct a thorough investigation into Jefferson Capital Systems ' debt collection practices to determine whether they have violated any consumer protection laws. Removal from Credit Report : Request that Jefferson Capital Systems immediately remove this erroneous debt from my credit report, as it is impacting my creditworthiness and causing undue harm. Communication : Direct Jefferson Capital Systems to promptly respond to my communications and provide a clear and satisfactory resolution to this matter. I greatly appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to a swift resolution. Should you require any additional information or documentation, please do not hesitate to contact me at the provided contact details. Thank you for your assistance in addressing this complaint.

I am getting repeated phone calls by Jefferson Capital. Jefferson Capital is masking their phone number to reflect an area code in " XXXX Florida '' where I'm from and have family & friends residing. Jefferson Capital is not located in Florida and they are masking their phone number with the hope of me or any 3rd party being tricked in answering the call. Furthermore, Jefferson Capital is calling 3rd parties in trying to contact me. Both tactics I just described confirms the knowingly & willingly act by Jefferson Capital violating my rights under the FDCRA & FCC. I previously sent Jefferson Capital a letter requesting for them to inform me in writing of what alleged debt they are trying to collect because I am unaware of any outstanding debt that I owe to any creditor. I also requested that if they are making any allegation of any outstanding debt that they are trying to collect to please provide me " validation of the debt '' & as of today 's date, they haven't provided me no validation of debt & continue to call me and 3rd parties. In closing, I am requesting that Jefferson Capital cease from calling me and any 3rd party. Furthermore, I will be filing a small claims lawsuit no later than XX/XX/2020, & today will be my only attempt to try and resolve this matter informally with Jefferson Capital before I file a lawsuit in small claims court. My lawsuit will be regarding the knowingly & willingly action ( s ) of Jefferson Capital violating my rights granted to me by the FDCRA & FCC. My lawsuit will be for {$2000.00} & the only communication I authorize Jefferson Capital to have with me is in writing & informing me if they agree to settle this matter informally.

This is in reference to a fraudulent charge recovery request from numerous collection agencies, which XXXX XXXX is fraudulently claiming I created on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX has never tried to contact me by phone, or at the address where I reside concerning this account in any way whatsoever. I have never opened an account with XXXX, or been in a XXXX store, or ever contacted XXXX concerning service. I had refuted the charges to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. XXXX and XXXX did remove the fraudulent charge, but XXXX will not remove the fraudulent charge without consent from XXXX XXXX. This charge has been tossed around from XXXX debt collector to another. When I got a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I refuted the charges and sent them a written notification that I do not own the debt and will not pay. The charge is then passed on to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC., I refuted the charges and they pass the fraudulent charge on to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX again, I refuted the charges. And the circle continues. I have contacted XXXX fraud department by phone ( XXXX ) and was told, by a representative, XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX that the account exists but has not been used. I was told, by XXXX, that my name and social security number will be removed from that account, and the reporting agencies notified, and that I would receive an email stating that it has been cleared. I informed the XXXX representative that I have never lived at the address listed on the fraudulent account, and I have never seen, or not familiar, with the telephone number listed as the contact number. I have not heard from or been contacted by XXXX fraud department since this call. I recently received a threatening letter from Jefferson Capital Systems concerning the debt and that they can sue me and will continue harassing me about this charge. ( Letter attached ). I need my name and social security number disassociated with this fraudulent charge and the credit reporting agencies updated. See attachments :

This account was opened in XX/XX/XXXX and I had a {$400.00} credit limit. It was paid off completely of on XX/XX/XXXX ; payments totaled {$570.00}. I closed the account due to the high interest rate they charge on top of overpriced items. XXXX reflects a {$0.00} balance on my credit report, which is accurate, but also states that it was charged off and now a collection agency is reporting a balance as of XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$940.00}. If the account was closed with a zero balance in XXXX, how can there be a balance as of XX/XX/XXXX ... .5 years later of {$940.00}? XXXX and Jefferson Capital System both need to remove their fraudulent remarks from my credit. XXXX is owned by XXXX XXXX XXXX according to the XXXX XXXX XXXX website and as of XX/XX/XXXX the business filed Chapter XXXX Bankruptcy, case # XXXX. Out of XXXX Reviews on XXXX, their rating is a XXXX out of XXXX, have received XXXX complaints in the last 3 years ; 512 of which were closed in the last year. Jefferson Capital has received XXXX complaints in the last 3 years and XXXX complaints in the last year. Out of XXXX Customer Reviews, they have a XXXX out of XXXX on XXXXXXXX. This should speak volumes about how they conduct business. I saw a ton of affilitations between XXXX account and Jefferson Captial Systems. This company XXXX XXXX XXXX brags about helping people " build a better credit future '' but all they are doing is ruining their credit. They charge ridiculous interest rates and charge you double for the item. For example, they are currently selling a handheld game console called the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in the color Coral. It is being sold at XXXX for {$310.00}. However, XXXX has the exact same item, in the exact same color for {$190.00}. XXXX has the exact same item as well and the same color and are selling it for the same price as XXXX for {$190.00}. This is NOT ok!!! They, by their own admission charge XXXX % interest on top of these over priced items.

In Letter A, there is an offer to settle an unverified DEBT at XXXX % off with some company called JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS , LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX is acting as President and Chief Executive Officer of JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS , LLC. ; and i believe XXXX XXXX is one in the same as JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS , LLC. I responded with a notice offering to settle the DEBT upon presentment of a verified and signed bill with a bill of particulars showing what damage/loss/harm i cause this alleged 'CREDITOR ', one XXXX XXXX - attached Notice A. I afforded XXXX XXXX XXXX working for XXXX XXXX 15 days to answer my offer to settle this DEBT ; but there was no response - see attached Certificate of Non-Response. 30 days after Notice A, i sent a followup notice that i wish for XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX to cease and desist since there is a failure to verified this DEBT, and that i wish for them to purge their databases of my information and remove any negative reports to my credit immediately - attached as Notice B. On XXXX XXXX 2016, my Notary received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX that fails to state a DEBT that i am obligated to settle ; in fact there is no amount stated, no damages claimed, no losses ... its not even a bill - attached Letter B. I believe Letter B is absolute rubbish. On XXXX XXXX 2016, i received a letter from XXXX XXXX saying that XXXX XXXX XXXX has an offer to settle a DEBT - attached as Letter C. I believe Letter C is an attempt to collect on an unverified DEBT sent through the Post Office, which is fraud. I believe I have acted in good faith to settle this DEBT alleged by XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX, but enough is enough.

I received a letter on XX/XX/XXXX, from Jefferson Capital ( dated XX/XX/XXXX ), alleging that I owe a debt that to XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$380.00}. I had XXXX in XXXX and early XXXX, so I sent them a validation letter on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX, advising I had 14 days to tell them what I was disputing. I have never received a response from Jefferson Capital. This is interesting, because I asked Jefferson Capital to validate the debt and send me a copy of the written agreement bearing my signature, to provide all the contact information regarding the original creditor, provide proof of the amount and age of the alleged debt. Is XXXX XXXX XXXX the same as XXXX XXXX XXXX? Because my credit report is showing XXXX XXXX XXXX I am unclear as to if this is the same company which is a violation of the law. A day later ( XX/XX/XXXX ), I received another letter ( dated XX/XX/XXXX as well ) with some statements from XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX that had my name on it sent to a po box in Georgia that I do not recognize from XXXX XXXX XXXX, but they have yet to provide the original contract, or any original agreement with my signature that created a requirement for me to pay the alleged debt. I was living in in Arizona at the time these invoices were created. A week later ( XX/XX/XXXX ), I received another letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX, stating that they are unsure of what my dispute is about. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received another letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX, advising that I was not specific with my dispute. I do not not recognize this alleged debt that is being reported on my credit report and so I sent another letter asking them to validate the debt by providing the original written agreement bearing my signature for the 2 accounts showing up on my credit report. I have not received it. At this point, they are sending me letters every 2 days and it is becoming harassment.

Last 4 of XXXX RE : XXXX XXXX Dear TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX am responding to your contact about a debt you are trying to collect. You contacted me by phone on XX/XX/2023 and identified this alleged debt. PLEASE PROVIDE PROOF OF CHARGE OFF/ The following account was charged off as of ( XXXX ) Since then the account has repeatedly been updated as charged off every month. This is an update in the payment history which to my understand charged off accounts should NOT include an active payment history. Need I remind you this also falsely manipulates the statute of limitations. I am demanding a deletion of the following account. Please supply the information below so that I have all information : The name and address of the creditor to whom the debt is currently owed, the account number used by that creditor, and the amount owed. If this debt started with a different creditor, provide the name and address of the original creditor, the account number used by that creditor, and the amount owed to that creditor at the time it was transferred. When you identify the original creditor, please provide any other name by which I might know them, if that is different from the official name. In addition, tell me when the current creditor obtained the debt and who the current creditor obtained it from. Provide verification and documentation that there is a valid basis for claiming that I must pay the debt to the current creditor. For example, can you provide a copy of the written agreement that created my original requirement to pay? If you are asking that I pay a debt that somebody else is or was required to pay, identify that person. Provide verification and documentation about why this is a debt that I must pay. The amount and age of the debt, including : A copy of the last billing statement sent to me by the original creditor. State the amount of the debt when you obtained it, and when that was.

I find out that collection agencies are transferring, and, or selling disputed XXXX charge-off accounts amongst each other in a deliberate attempt to prolong how long negative records stay on my credit report and by so doing preventing my XXXX score from increasing. The four companies are : 1. XXXX XXXX 2. Jefferson Capital XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX I was a victim of identity theft which resulted in the issuance of credit cards in my name to XXXX While several of the credit card issuing companies reviewed my claim and closed the cards, others chose to charge-off the balance owed, all of which occurred preXXXX. I filed police report and secured my credit record with XXXX XXXX XXXX. Subsequently, I refused to file for bankruptcy as advised by debt collectors, The debt collectors harassed me relentlessly asking to collect debts I did not owe. I wrote them all back asking for records of the alleged debts, including, signed copy of debt-application, record of debts alleged, and, or credit card usage, the signed-invoices, date-stamped video recordings while cards were being used. Also schedule of items purchased, or the description of products or services the alleged credit cards were used for. I also asked for date-stamped receipts of collection agency purchase of the alleged debts to compare with issuing card company charge-off date. Notwithstanding my requests to these collection companies, I expect that all negative reporting on these preXXXX charged-off accounts should have come-off my credit reports by now. Can you please check in with these companies for reasons why they would want to sell and resell these charged off accounts ( to their subsidiaries and, or affiliates ) so that they can keep renewing the reporting on my credit report, not considering the accounts have been charged off since XXXX. Your time and thoughtful consideration are greatly appreciated. Thanks, XXXX XXXX, XXXX

I am writing to address the ongoing issue concerning inaccurate information within my credit file, specifically related to accounts associated with your company. This matter is of great concern to me, and despite my previous attempts to rectify it, the situation has not been resolved satisfactorily. I have sent a total of six previous letters to your company, all via certified mail. Please find the attached receipts for the certified mail with the following tracking numbers : XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. These receipts confirm the delivery of my requests for the removal of inaccurate information from my credit file. I would like to draw your attention to 15 U.S. Code 1681c2, which states that it is a crime to threaten a lawsuit with no intention of pursuing it. Rest assured, my intention is sincere, and I am prepared to take legal action if necessary. Despite my previous efforts, your company has failed to conduct a proper investigation into the inaccuracies on my credit report, as required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. My previous letters clearly outlined the reasons for my dispute, and these concerns are far from frivolous. This final request serves as a last opportunity for your company to rectify this matter. I expect a thorough investigation into the accounts in question, and I request that you provide me with documented proof of this investigation. Failure to comply will leave me with no choice but to file a civil suit in my county for damages. I take the accuracy of my credit report seriously, and the lack of professionalism and assistance from your company has been deeply disappointing. I am well aware of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and I am prepared to pursue them to the fullest extent of the law. I anticipate your prompt response and the resolution of this matter. If I do not receive a satisfactory reply within 30 days, I will have no choice but to pursue legal action.

I just recently started checking my consumer reports from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX and I noticed a account I didn't recognize. So this prompt me to find out why and who I allegedly owed a debt to. I ended up finding out that Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has been furnishing my information to the consumer reporting agencies knowing that they had never contacted me to make me aware of the alleged debt. Ironically on XX/XX/XXXX they finally contacted me with their initial disclosure ( six months after " Regulation F '' effective date XX/XX/XXXX ). It's clear that they've been using a deceptive tactic called " Debt Parking ''. To prove this I am listing the account and the last date this particular account was updated on my XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX reports. This will prove that they've been furnishing this account to CRA 's without following the procedures and rules of the FDCPA. According to 12 CFR 1006.30 a debt collector must not furnish to consumer reporting agency as defined in section 603 ( f ) of the FDCPA 15 USC 1681a ( f ) information about a debt before the debt collector either speaks to the consumer in person or by phone, or places a letter in the mail or sends a electronic message to the consumer about the debt and waits for a reasonable period of time to receive a notice of undeliverability. Also according to 12 CFR 1006.18 ( d ) A debt collector must not use any false representations or deceptive means to collect or attempt to collect any debt. These two violations alone are more than enough to pursue legal action against Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. Listed below is the account number and the last dates updated for further proof. XXXX XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Last Date Updated : XX/XX/XXXX I am also attaching photo proof of the initial disclosure and it's date, along with photos of XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX reports showing last date this account was updated.

In 2006 I opened a free checking account with XXXX XXXX XXXX. The problem arose when the account was overdrawn by around {$340.00}, give or take. It did take me 1-2 years ( I was a student at the time, paying my own way for books and tuition, upon working to sustain my other immediate bills ), until I was able to reconcile and close the account with the bank with the full amount that was due. I have not heard anything about this incident until the past 6-9 months. The agency contacting me is XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX, based at XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX. XXXX, MN XXXX. I have not received any type of paper notification from either the bank or this agency, but have recently been receiving phone calls within the correct debtor calling hours as is their right, however, I have repeatedly ( well over 5 times ) asked them to place my number on their " Do Not Call '' list as it is my business number and that this debt was already taken care of well over 10 years ago. I am still receiving phone calls from them stating that they are now wanting to collect on behalf of the bank, but as we know sometimes things get mixed up in the transfer of debtors ' records. I was a XXXX XXXX for a XXXX XXXX XXXX and I know my rights as far as asking them not to call me again, same for not using the number given to them. I want to report them for continued harassment and would very much appreciate someone looking into this for me, as it is now interrupting my business in a negative way ; also in personal ways. I do also intend to notify the agency in writing to the address provided me as per Sub-Section 806 : Communication in Connection with Debt Collection, paragraphs ( a-c ), as stated in the FDCPA. Please let me know at your earliest convenience what we need to do to proceed forward with this complaint. Thank you. Also, I do not have records of this bank or the account number, amount owed, etc. as it was so long ago.

Either the day before or on XX/XX/XXXX I was scared and tailgated by a XXXX man with XXXX hair all black sunglasses viciously tailgating me in my hometown. He had out of state Colorado License plates. That same day a collection suit was filed against me by a Jefferson Capitol Company. The Lawyer lives in Colorado. He did not put HIS OFFICE number on Court Documents. I filed an Answer to the suit. It is from a different company over 2 years old and they charged off the debt. I had paid them regularly on time for a long time. Getting a hold of this Attorney from Jefferson Capital was nearly impossible. They fought/argued/were mean at the XXXX # he gave the Court as his #. They told me they would not let me talk to him. Demanded a ton of private personal information including my ENTIRE SS #. I finally did talk to the Colorado Lawyer who is suing me for a Minnesota Company-he did not care that I am XXXX and have no income. I have to do a Hearing and have been terrified all Summer. He Picked the Exact Day that I usually get my check on. Plus the EXACT MORNING HEARING TIME that I go outside to walk my XXXX dog. I can hardly walk early mornings due to my XXXX. I believe he has stalked me and knows that. I asked XXXX XXXX of Nebraska for help they are ZERO help. This has scared me ALL Summer long. I pay my bills on time. This was an instance where they jacked up the payments to $ XXXXplus a month and I tried to offer {$35.00} and they wouldn't take it. I feel this Lawyer who apparently does have a phone number was DECEPTIVE because it was never given on ANY COURT DOCUMENTS EVER. The Credit card charged off the debt already. He bought it. He is trying to get money from me that I do not owe Him. He had me Served on a Sunday. A Religious Day. ALL his Court documents " PRAY TO THE COURT FOR JUDGMENT AGAINST ME. '' Lawyer " PRAYS '' Against ME, I am a XXXX. This has been personal and terrifying.

I contacted Jefferson Capital Systems, after finding out a collection account was posted to my credit report. I researched the company and contacted them via the phone number found on the web. After waiting on the line for 15 minutes, I was transferred to XXXX XXXX This call was placed on XXXX/XXXX/2016 at XXXX. After verifying my personal information, and confirming the last XXXX digits of my social security number, I was advised that my account was owned by Jefferson Capital Systems but it was given to a company named XXXX XXXX XXXX to collect payment. The number I was given to call was XXXX. This number is invalid and it 's for a company called XXXX XXXX. Again, I was never notified of this debt, and called this morning to see what it was regarding. Also, I was never notified that it was an attempt to collect a debt nor informed that any information obtained will be used for that. Under the FDCPA ( Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ), and being a resident in New York State, it 's a requirement for any collection agency to make a party ascertain of the following : " This an attempt to collect a debt and any information obtained will be used for that purpose '', when calling or replying to any type of debt to any and every person I speak to. After looking further into the FDCPA, I was made aware that I can sue a debt collector in a State or Federal court within XXXX year from the date the law was violated, if this violation is not handled. Per the prerecorded message while I was on hold, " all calls were recorded ''. That being said, the recorded call can confirm I was never notified of the attempt to collect a debt. I would like my debt to be closed and removed from my credit report and not sold to another creditor. I would like a letter of deletion for my book keeping or I will contact both State and Federal agencies and take this violation to court under the rights of the FDCPA.

Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau : Im writing to request assistance resolving XXXX and credit reporting discrepancies with Jefferson Capital Systems. I received a letter from Jefferson Capital systems in XXXX of XXXX requesting payment on a debt incurred through XXXX XXXX back in 2019. The original debt was XXXX and the letter stated they would accept a settlement payment of XXXX to resolve the account in full. I called Jefferson Capital systems on XX/XX/XXXX to negotiate payment options. I learned during the call that the offer expired the day before, on XX/XX/XXXX and they had just filed a case against me with the XXXX XXXX XXXX system. I asked if there were still options to negotiate a settlement. Jefferson Capital systems agreed to accept a payment of XXXX} as payment in full and to drop the associated court case. I made the full payment of XXXX that day to avoid receiving a court summons and settle the matter before it became a legal proceeding. I received a letter from Jefferson Capital systems on XX/XX/XXXX confirming the debt had been satisfied. I received another letter from them dated XX/XX/XXXX notifying me they had requested dismissal of the court case, with prejudice. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a court summons on the case. I called today to check on the case status and the court confirmed they never received a request for dismissal, and I have XXXX days from the date I was served to file a response. I have also learned the debt collector has updated my credit file to show the account still in collections with an amount owed of XXXX. I would like to find out if I have any recourse against the debt collector for failing to uphold the terms of the agreed upon payment to settle the debt. At the very least I would like the active court case against me dropped and my credit report update to show the debt collection paid as agreed. Thanks for your help

Please, please please make all the credit agencies PROVE that the debt they are attempting to have reported on a consumer 's account is good debt w/in the statue of limitations BEFORE the credit companies put the info on a consumer 's report and downgrade the credit rating. Innocent until proven guilty. My Experian account reported that my credit score went down b/c of new information reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX Acct XXXX who CLAIMS I owe {$98.00} to XXXX. XXXX bought this debt they are attempting to collect from me. XXXX reported that it was current as of XX/XX/XXXX and shows little x marks next the past XXXX months on some bogus report they misrepresented and fabricated. As reported on XXXX report JCS phone = XXXX, address XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX. I opened a dispute advising XXXX to request XXXX scammers prove that its debt collection action follows the Virginia state statue of limitations debt collection laws. XXXX responded w/in hours that the debt collection attempt is good and my dispute is closed. I have NOT had a XXXX account since XXXX or XXXX when I switched to XXXX XXXX to XXXX years ago - way past the statue of limitations. I contacted XXXX XXXX to set up home internet service. XXXX first ran a credit check on me to determine if I owed XXXX any money, The XXXX rep told me in XXXX I do not own XXXX any money. I phone XXXX XXXX on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. Experian online now prevents me from reopening my online complaint or it is hidden behind some screen. I XXXX robot prevented me from speaking to a customer service rep saying it is impossible for me to speak to a cust. svc. rep. Call back another time. When is the federal govt going to put guidelines in for the three credit agencies who are clearly in bed w the predators and demand that they make it super simple for people to easily respond to the repeated misrepresentation of this debt collector predators.

I was notified by a relative that they were contacted by Jefferson Capital. When they answered, it was a robocall and said " This is a debt collector and looking for XXXX XXXX " Also, I have been receiving calls from them impersonating a different elderly relative. I believe they are scamming and phishing. On the callerid it shows a relative name and when you call back. It is a robocall that says, " This is a debt collector. '' They have been calling daily and repeatedly. I have the right to be treated by a collection agency with dignity and respect. The collection agency has engaged in the following practices, which violate the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act : Repeat calls as harassment Illegally Inform a Third Party About Your Alleged Debts repeatedly calling relatives, family and friends Collectors are not allowed to inform anyone about your debts Within five days of the collector 's initial communication, it must send you a notice include the amount of the debt, name of the creditor, and notice of your right to dispute the debts within 30 days. I am willing to forgo the legal remedies I may have, including a lawsuit in small claims court seeking punitive damages against you and the agency, in exchange for your written promise to permanently cease all efforts to collect this debt and remove all negative entries regarding this debt from my credit file. I expect to hear from you immediately. Pursuant to my rights under federal debt collection laws, please cease all collection activities you have taken or are considering taking. Also, had multiple hospitalizations in the past year, so must avoid stress. I am retired and on low income. This includes high-pressure collection activity and lawsuits. I am requesting that you cease and desist communication with me, as well as my family and friends, concerning this and all other alleged debts you claim I owe.

I have requested numerous companies to remove reported accounts with information that are being reported as fraudulent accounts, wrong accounts, closed accounts, inaccurate account information, accounts not belonging to me, wrong dates and amounts, wrong name, wrong personal information, duplicate accounts, accounts that I never entered into a contract with the reporting company, numerous collection agencies that I do not have nor entered a contract with, accounts that have well surpassed the statue of limitations, etc from collection agencies and other companies/agencies that are submitting this information to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX... but they have refused and or denied my request and have not provided any information to me as to how it was investigated..they have not removed the false and erronious information on my credit reports violating provisions outlined in 15 USC 1962, 15 U.S. Code 1681, Federal and state fair credit reporting statutes promote the accuracy and privacy of information kept and distributed by the nations consumer reporting companies by defining how information must be recorded, verified and safeguarded. These requirements are critical as the accuracy of your credit report can affect whether you qualify for a loan and at what interest rate, and the privacy of your information guards against identity theft, a very serious problem today that can ultimately affect your ability to get credit, insurance, or even a job. Credit reporting violations include where your credit report contains information that is inaccurate or incomplete, disputed or outdated. Violations of these statutes require compensation to you for the damages suffered, plus an additional amount up to {$1000.00} per violation, plus punitive damages, attorney fees and court costs, and often more importantly, allow you to correct and protect your credit report in the future.

I have a shared debt with my ex to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. that was escalated to a debt collector XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) in XXXX. First of all, I tried refinancing with Jefferson Capital Systems and told them that if they couldn't refinance with me I wouldn't be able to make my payments, as my ex ( the co-owner on the car ) backed out of his share on payments when we broke up. They would not even consider it. So I had to voluntarily surrender my car. Secondly, I was never served ( I never received a summons! ), yet somehow I ended up sued. Apparently the summons went to my ex 's address and I didn't know about it until my ex told me what happened after the fact. Nevertheless, I made a payment arrangement with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, the debt collector. I had been making automatic monthly payments of {$50.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX since then ( XX/XX/XXXX ) until XX/XX/XXXX, when I changed banks and forgot to update my payment method with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and my payments to them stopped. The last payment was on XX/XX/XXXX. Nobody ever contacted me in any way to try and collect the debt again, but my boss got a letter in the mail yesterday ( XX/XX/XXXX ), stamp dated XX/XX/XXXX, from the state to garnish my wages. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX this morning at XXXXXXXX XXXX and asked if I could continue making my payments and they told me no, it was too late. Then the lady I was speaking with told me the state already took over {$500.00} out of my check on XX/XX/XXXX, which isn't true. I got paid my regular amounts on the XXXX and the XXXX, and I verified with my boss that nothing has been garnished. She flat out lied to me, giving me false information that wouldn't even be XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 's concern anymore. I also have call recording on my phone, but somehow they blocked recording, which makes them even more shady.

was contacted by letter in the mail on XX/XX/XXXX, the letter was dated XX/XX/XXXX. This letter is from a company called Jefferson Capital located out of XXXX XXXX, MN. This company seems to be a collection agency and they are trying to collect funds from a company called XXXX XXXX. They say I owe a debt of $ XXXX.And this was created in XX/XX/XXXX. I have never had a XXXX account and when I notified the company the first time they wanted me to verify my social security number I would not give it to them and the rep on the other line got very hostile with me. I informed them that they could discuss this debt with my attorney and that I have never had a XXXX account. I am XXXX years old and I use a bank not XXXX to pay my debts. The young lad I spoke with was very rude so I ended the conversation with her. The date I contacted them was XX/XX/XXXX upon receiving the letter about XXXX in the afternoon CST. I decided to call back on XX/XX/XXXX, and I received assistance from this young man, I told him that I did not feel comfortable giving my information such as my social security number and he told me that was fine, he then began to tell me about the debt so I asked him if he had an email connected to this debt since it was a XXXX account, he gave me an email of XXXX, I have never heard of this email and it does not seem to be something in English, I informed him that they had the wrong person and that I needed to dispute this debt. He informed me that he would file a dispute and if I had any information that would be helpful in the filing of the dispute to send it to Jefferson Capital System XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX, IL XXXX or XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX. I feel like whomever this XXXX person is they are running a scam and giving debt to people that do not owe anything trying to threaten in paying. Please help me solve this problem.

I thought this card was cleared of the fraudulent transactions, only to find they flipped all the fraudulent transactions on to this card. they used this cards number to access my XXXX XXXX checking account for a payment in XX/XX/2023. XXXX XXXX took this payment back. They again went into my checking account in XX/XX/2023 using a XXXX " XXXX XXXX number and took out more money, which XXXX XXXX took back. XXXX XXXX advised me to close the checking account I've had for over 20 years as they can not stop XXXX XXXX from using the " XXXX XXXX '' numbers to access my account, as they have thousands of them. XXXX XXXX continued to harass me by posting false claims regarding this issue on every Credit Bureau service. Destroying my credit rating, that before XXXX XXXX attempts at Bank Robbery was over XXXX, and now in in the low XXXX. To add further harassment, they have turned over this fraudulent claim to a collection bureau, Jefferson Capital Systems , LLc, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX. I am XXXX, sick and need your help!!! Please Stop XXXX XXXX NOW! They shouldn't even be allowed in this country! They obviously are breaking the law in attacking my bank account and credit report repeatedly. XXXX XXXX has never received a cash transfer from XXXX XXXX to my checking account. For ANY amount.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Re : Identity Theft and Unresolved Collection Account with XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of significant concern regarding my identity and credit profile. In XX/XX/2020, I fell victim to identity theft, and as a consequence, my personal information was compromised. Since then, I have been diligently working to rectify the aftermath of this incident. Among the various challenges I am facing, one specific issue pertains to an unresolved collection account with XXXX. Despite my efforts to dispute the validity of this account, the company has refused to delete it from my credit report. I have attached relevant documentation, including a copy of the police report filed in connection with the identity theft, to support my case. The incident of identity theft has had severe implications on my financial standing, and the inclusion of an unjustified collection account on my credit report only exacerbates the situation. I believe that the persistence of this entry is unwarranted, considering the circumstances surrounding the theft and the steps I have taken to rectify the matter. I kindly request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 's assistance in investigating this matter and facilitating the removal of the XXXX collection account from my credit report. I have made multiple attempts to resolve this issue directly with XXXX through the dispute process, but my efforts have been unsuccessful. I trust that your agency, with its commitment to consumer protection, can help bring resolution to this matter. I appreciate your prompt attention to this issue and look forward to a swift and favorable resolution. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

In approximately the summer of 2017 I received a collection notice for over {$800.00} for a XXXX XXXX bill. I have never used XXXX XXXX ( my company phone is XXXX now, but even that is new this year ). I contacted the collection agency and advised them. They told me I needed to call XXXX. I did, and XXXX confirmed that whatever it was that was ordered was ordered using my social security number and my address but a different email address than any I have used. They said it was strange because it was a phone but the service was never activated. Further, that phone or whatever it was never was delivered to my home. They confirmed that it looked like fraud to them as well. They asked me if I could file a police report, but I pulled my credit report and given that it was the ONLY item on my credit report I felt that filing a police report wasn't going to get me anywhere. What would the police do for one item on my credit report with ZERO information about who might have done it to go on. So I simply advised XXXX that I wanted to dispute the account as it was not mine. Then they sold the debt to : JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN I immediately notified them by mail that this was not my account, that XXXX KNEW this was not my account, and that it was the result of fraud. No response. They placed it on my credit report ( which XXXX never had ). I disputed it with all three bureaus and explained the situation in detail along with my dispute. They each did their investigation ( whatever that means ) and Jefferson Capital stood by their reporting. This is NOT my account. It has NEVER been my account. I have NEVER received anything from XXXX nor used XXXX in any way, and this is unjustly harming my credit. Please contact Jefferson and have them remove this listing as it has nothing to do with me.

I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from a debt collector named XXXX XXXX, XXXX relating to a XXXX XXXX account in the amount of {$2000.00} that was in my name but which I have never signed or accepted. I demanded verification of the debt and the only document received was a copy of the bill in my name that had been sent to me. Subsequently, I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, all seeking collection of the {$2000.00} XXXX bill. I have now received two letters from Jefferson Capital Systems XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX relating to the XXXX bill. I requested from XXXX XXXX a copy of the ''original document from XXXX '' to show who signed the XXXX account and never received any reply. Attached are the two letters I have sent to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC one dated XX/XX/XXXX and the other dated XX/XX/XXXX which asks for verification of the debt. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC never responded to my request to verify the XXXX debt. It has now been more than two and a half years and successive collection letters from five collection agencies to collect a debt that is not mine and as to which no collection agency has provided the documents that show who originally signed on the XXXX account. I consider XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NJ XXXX ) to be responsible as well as all five collection companies that have not responded to my request and Jefferson Capital continues to harass me which I believe constitutes an ''unfair practice '' under Section 808 of the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I am happy to provide additional documentation to the CFPB relating to my responses to all of the companies listed in the attached letter dated XX/XX/XXXX.

Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has been holding my credit hostage. They are saying I owe money I do not. They are unable to provide me proof of this debt. The original debtor they say I owe is XXXX XXXX, who I am still a member with and have not ever owed. I still service with XXXX XXXX in which I pay them every month for. I don't know if they obtained a wrong clients info but I have and do not owe Ideal Image or Jeffersons Capital. I have asked them to remove this from my credit bureaus several times and although their automated system say they have asked the credit bureaus to remove them from my file since XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, the credit bureaus say they are still reporting every month. So, they are literally being deceptive. They have removed the debt for a while and have put it back. I need help getting this settled and to alarm CFPB of their deceptive practices. They are not going to force me to pay for something I do not owe. I am an XXXX and I work to hard and face to many dangers this pandemic to just give my hard earn sweat and blood money to the thieves. I will attach an email from Ideal Image saying I do not owe or ever owed them that amount and that I currently have service with them. Thank you. P.S. I called XXXX XXXX today, now they say I owe them under another company but the price has not changed. I ask how come the company has switched and they say I do not know what was told to you yesterday XX/XX/XXXX. Now I am sure there is something deceptive going on. I need help getting to the bottom of this. I only wish I could get yesterdays recording as they say everything is recorded. I got a representative from Ideal Image to send me proof I do not owe them, but all of a sudden when I said I have proof I do not owe Ideal Image, they list another company. Please help. Thank you.

XXXX was contracted by Jefferson Capital to collect on a debt originally owned by XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX & I came to a settlement amount of {$2600.00}. This was in XX/XX/2020. On XX/XX/XXXX I obtained a Cashiers check in that amount. It was then mailed to XXXX and delivered on XX/XX/XXXX and deposited on XX/XX/XXXX. It officially cleared the account on XX/XX/XXXX. The first week of XXXX, a call was made to XXXX to get an update as I had not received a receipt nor anything stating this was now settled. They claimed the check bounced and that they shredded the check. How did they shred the check? Even if a cashier check could bounce, how did they get the check back from the bank to allegedly shred it? Cashier checks are prepaid instruments, and unlike a personal check, they do not bounce. XXXX then claimed that they shredded the check. I was baffled by this because if this was sincerely true, they would have called or sent a letter. They had no hesitation in calling or sending a letter when attempting to previously collect a debt. They then told me that since the money never left my account, I should go ahead and just pay with my debit card. After arguing with them for some time and telling them that cashiers checks do NOT bounce, they said they'd investigate and give me a call back. When they called back, they told me they were still investigating. In the mean time I called my bank ( XXXX XXXX ) who told me an attempt had been made on the cashiers check as an ACH debit which resulted in it being declined. My bank then told me the check cleared the account on XX/XX/XXXX and provided me with a written letter and proof. Yet XXXX denies this despite the check being clearly stamped " XXXX for deposit only '' ( which XXXX provided me with a company ). To this date, I have not heard from XXXX or Jefferson.

Currently in litigation at XXXX XXXX XXXX Case # XXXX, I received a presentment postmarked XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX who represents JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS. Regarding Case # XXXX, Account # ending in XXXX, with a XXXX # XXXX, for the amount of {$990.00}. I have requested Validation of Debt not once, but twice. Sent via Certified Mail # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The second request Certified Mai l # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXXon XX/XX/XXXX. Let it be known that this very moment, I still have not received a Validation of the alleged Debt. The responses to my inquiries were duplicate packets with letter and statement of account dated XXXX XXXX from the office in XXXX, Wisconsin. Not from the office located in XXXX, Massachusetts where the Validation of Debt inquiries were sent and signed for. Also, two copies of what was submitted to XXXX XXXX XXXX were sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX Attn : XXXX XXXX, Clerk Magistrate in XXXX XXXX, Massachusetts for Case # XXXX via Certified Mail # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sent XX/XX/XXXX and Certified Mail # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sent XX/XX/XXXX. They can not validate the debt because they can not produce an Original Contract. As a matter of fact, per my credit report dated XX/XX/XXXX the alleged debt that I am being sued for was closed and written off, then purchased by another lender. Notice, it is a fact, and I am aware, you can not represent as an attorney and collect a debt at the same time without being a debt collector. Thats violation of the 15 US Code 1692e ( 3 ) and I am in litigation with a third party as they were not involved in the original transaction, nor do I have any contract with them, and I do not consent to this third party to being in my affairs. All testimony or representation from this third party is heresay!

My name is XXXX XXXX I am a consumer submitting this complaint on the behalf of my self without any influence from any third party being involved. Fraud had been committed my consumer report, which violates the FCRA and FDCPA. Jefferson Capital is using extortionate means to collect on an alleged debt. I do not owe that resulted from extension of credit which violates tittle 18 USC 892-894 and constitutes racketeering actives and extortion. On XX/XX/XXXX I got a letter from Jefferson Capital about an alleged debt, on XXXX/XXXX I sent a debt validation letter, on XX/XX/XXXX I sent a second debt validation letter. On XX/XX/XXXX Jefferson Capital stated they are closing the account but didn't mention about deleting it from my consumer report. This is a notice sent as per the Fair debt Collection Practice Act ( F.D.C.P.A ) 15 U.S.C. 1692 ( G ) section 809 ( B ). This is a request for accounting request raiding list of collateral or statement of account reference to U.C.C 9-210.

This is also a Notice exercising my rights to prevent the processing of my personal data by Jefferson Capital. Please be advised that providing a memorandum or other statement from your agency, stating that Jefferson Capital the assignment of the account was transferred shall be deemed insufficient. Failure to substantiate the claim, please settle the accounts immediately and cease and desist all communication and have these trade lines deleted from my consumer report immediately and send conformation.

I was looking into an FHA for the first time and came across this collection which is an illegal one. The original debt was through XXXX that was over 5yrs old. Jefferson Capital is reporting an unverified debt that I allegedly owe to them. I have no contractual agreement with Jefferson CapitaXXXX at all. They are in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Act. I won my cases under the FCRA with Transunion which closed the account, but Equifax Experian has not and severely damaging my credit. I have now made XXXX disputes through Equifax. They must validate, verify, prove all debt with 100 % accuracy and they have not. They are violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Jefferson Capital must provide proof of any debt that I allegedly owe with copies of any contractual agreements bearing my signature. 2 weeks ago I called them asking to see this " collection '' which they can not sue for because of how old this is and all they sent was a bill with no original debt I owe, no details, no signatures, NOTHING. They have in XXXX I owe {$1000.00}, but when I talked to an employee there he said they can lower it to {$530.00} and are sending paper work ... so right there, they are reporting wrong. I was never given notice of this collection. I never signed anything with them and I also was not given the 30 day period to respond before the collection was added, which is a right guaranteed to me by law. This needs to be removed IMMEDIATELY or as others said, I have no choice, but to sue them and bring them to court. I am trying to buy a house and they 're making it hard. This dept is so old they ca n't even sue me or even had my proper address until 2 weeks ago which I 've been at for over 10 years.

As a third-party intervener this company has negatively impacted me as a consumer. Pursuant to federal law They have committed fraud and several violations of the FDCPA and TILA. They are now threatening me for an alleged debt that they claim I owe. I never received a Material Disclosure of any of the information that was supposed to be provided to me. they have taken an unfair advantage of me as a consumer, and they should be held accountable for deceiving me and not validating the debt. They have not validated anything ; they have ruined my character and general reputation by reporting erroneous information on my consumer report and included a symbol on the contents of the envelope for the mail courier or any person affiliated with the postal service or comes in contact with the envelope that alleges I owe a debt. Theyve act as if they are unaware of what I am requesting or that the law does not apply to them and I've included evidence and proof, pursuant to federal law with facts that prove that the law does apply to them and that they must adhere to them. They have not provided me with any original documents, and they have disregarded the law by saying, they do not have to provide me with anything except billing statements or applications, which is not proof of validation or proof that I owe anything. They are also claiming that they must report information to the credit bureaus, however cfpb handbook 3.1.1 furnishers incentives and decentives states- reporting to credit bureaus and other consumer agencies by creditors is voluntary and historically has been. Furnishers have multiple incentives to contribute data to NCRA one of which is for borrowers to make timely repayments. Their willful non-compliance has damaged my reputation as well as my credit file

Received a notice in the mail on XX/XX/2019 from Jefferson Capital Systems, LLC for a debt of XXXX. I called XXXX and spoke with a representative who explained this debt was from 5 years ago for a payday loan. I explained to the representative that I would be willing to settle the account with them for XXXX The representative needed to request approval from her supervisor and placed me on hold. When she came back on the line she advised me that they would be willing to settle and close the account for XXXX. I agreed and she took my payment over the phone providing me with confirmation number XXXX. She advised they would be sending me a letter confirming the debt had been paid and I would receive it in the mail. I checked my credit report and noticed the debt had been removed from my history.Unexpectedly onXX/XX/2019 I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX requesting XXXX for the balance owed to Jefferson Capital Systems, LLC. Infuriated that Jefferson would say they were settling with me only to sell the remainder of the balance to another debt collector I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and spoke with XXXX. I explained to her the situation and asked her if they could review my call with Jefferson to see that I was told the debt would be settled. She placed me on hold and stated her manager was going to work with Jefferson and I would receive a call back. The XXXX is now showing up on my credit report and decreased my credit score! I didnt hear anything back from this company, so todayXX/XX/2019 I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX again at XXXX requesting an update and the representatives are telling me they cannot locate an account for me. This debt of XXXX has significantly decreased my credit score and I want it removed! Please help me! I feel helpless.

I am an XXXX XXXX military member who has recently returned from living overseas for 4 years. As part of my new job and heightened security clearance, I had to submit to a credit review process. During this process, I learned that I supposedly owed approximately {$300.00} to XXXX XXXX. OnXX/XX/XXXX I spoke with XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX She informed me that the charge was initially a XXXX XXXX bill that went into collection. I am adamant that I paid all charges to XXXX prior to departing overseas. It would not, however, surprise me if I was subjected to a predatory account cancellation charge ( this has happened to me twice previously with cell phone companies despite doing everything within my power to ensure that the account was closed properly prior to departing and informing them of the military clause for cancelling accounts ). I asked for an itemized list of charges and was told that these would be emailed. I left 2 voicemails for XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I called back and spoke to XXXX ( ext XXXX ). I was told that my request for an itemized list of charges was under " Manager Review '' at XXXX XXXX I was told that there was no standard for review and to expect " a few weeks or a month '' for return notice. When I asked if there was a specific standard I was told that " this information is not important. '' I have since not been successful at having anyone at XXXX, XXXX, or any other third party collection agency describe to me the nature of my alleged debt. I feel I have no recourse ( other than paying a debt I don't believe is mine ) than to request your assistance. The claim number for this is # XXXX and the contact # I have for the company is XXXX. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.

I received a letter from XXXX, agent for Jefferson Systems Collections LLC on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. I subsequently sent XXXX requests for debt verification, the first denied as being received by XXXX and the second mailed Express Mail USPS and delivered on on XXXX and available for pickup ever since this date. Please make note of letter as the is address I mailed validation letter to as it is the address outlined in header. I addition, I also contacted the State of MD to further determine if XXXX was a license collection agency in the state and confirmed that is was not a licensed collector in MD. Convergence, who I contacted via USPS and phone is. However, they directed me to XXXX for follow-up surrounding the status of the debt verification and why they reported a debt that had been requested to be validated. XXXX 's agent who is a licensed debt collector in MD would not assist me or my daughter and frankly gave us the run around. Upon reaching, XXXX via phone, I was instructed that they were a debt collector and they did not have any information surrounding the credit reporting done by them and back dated to XXXX. I receive alerts due to experiencing identity theft and was alerted on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX that a " new '' entry was added to my credit report. As a consumer, I have the right to request validation of a debt within 30 days of receiving notice of supposed obligation, Jefferson and its agent XXXX, denied me my rights and subsequently, I have sent a cease and desist letter, a request for full verification of the alleged debt. Instead, Jefferson and its agent resorted in shady tactics and denied me my right within the first 30 days or receiving a collection notice validation of alleged debt. I have be adversely impacted and suffered.

I have thoroughly reviewed my records, and I can confirm that I have never had any dealings or financial obligations with you or the reported account. This inaccurate reporting is not only misleading but also adversely affecting my creditworthiness, which has significant implications for my financial standing and opportunities. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), it is your legal obligation as a consumer reporting agency to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the information you report. Section 611 of the FCRA grants me the right to dispute any inaccurate information on my credit report and request its prompt investigation. Therefore, I kindly request that you take the following actions : 1. Conduct a thorough investigation into the reported account, including verifying the accuracy of the account information, its association with my personal details, and any supporting documentation or agreements related to the account. 2. Provide me with a written response detailing the results of your investigation, including any evidence supporting the accuracy of the account or the basis for its removal from my credit report. 3. If the investigation reveals that the account does not belong to me or is inaccurately reported, I insist that you immediately cease reporting it to all credit reporting agencies. 4. Ensure that any negative information associated with this account is promptly removed from my credit report, as required by the FCRA. I expect this matter to be resolved within 30 days from the date of receipt of this letter, as mandated by the FCRA. If you are unable to complete the investigation within this timeframe, I request that you inform me in writing and provide a detailed explanation for the delay.

This complain is for XXXX XXXX XXXX. It was supposedly for XXXX XXXX for {$300.00}. It was dated a few years back. Fast forward. Im in the middle of processing a mortage loan now. Had to pay the balance to raise my credit score up and remove the negative remarks they put on my acct. Before i paid them, i called to see if they can send over a bill with the amount i owed. They declined to do so in writing and redirect me to XXXX to see the balance. Decided to overnight the money order with the said balance on XX/XX/2019 with signature needed making sure theyll get the payment on time at XXXX on XX/XX/2019. Called the next day after it was signed by a person named XXXX XXXX at XXXX. Spoke to a representative and was told they havent received the payment. I told them it was signed at XXXX so they should have it on record. They said that the payment isnt posted yet and declined my request for them to expedite the process because i need a letter from them saying they received the payment and the balance is now {$0.00}. Spoke to a supervisor and they were no help either. Mind you that ive called them multiple times in the past week and they arent willing to help with anything. The second time i called it was a lady representative that helped me. I was on the phone for 50/more mins. She would put me on hold multiple times and failed to inform me that theyre updating their system and its slowing everything down. Mind you that i have a newborn baby and have other errands to do therefore i dont have an hour to sit around and be on the phone with them! Now my mortage loan was declined due to this mishap!! And i tried to access my acct from their website and it says my accts not accessible thru the web and have to call them.

On XX/XX/2018 I received an alert from my credit monitoring service that a collection was placed on my credit reports from a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called and spoke to a customer service agent then I asked to speak with a supervisor. I spoke with a young lady by the name of XXXX XXXX. I explained to her that her company placed a collection on my reports that they alleged was placed with their company by XXXX XXXX. In order for the rep to look up my account she asked my name and SSC number. I told her that I would give her my name and last 4. I asked the rep what address they had. She said they had a XXXX XXXX address in XXXX SC I explained to the rep that her company claims this debt was placed with their agency on XX/XX/2018. I told her that I know the company was being deceitful because I was still disputing this fraudulent account with XXXX XXXX and the account was finally removed from my reports on XX/XX/2018, so XXXX could the account be placed with them in XX/XX/XXXX when XXXX still had it in XX/XX/XXXX and was communicating back and forth with me regarding the account, until it was finally removed due to fraud. I called XXXX and explained all this and they in turn informed me they did not place the account with anyone due to fraud and advised me to file a complaint and dispute the accounts with the credit bureaus. I informed them the address they have I have never lived at. I have never heard of this company, I never received any type of communication stating they were placing this fraudulent account on my reports. I may also sue this company for defamation and smearing my credit. This company is using illegal tactics to get consumers to pay collections that they can not validate and do not own

I received correspondence from several attorneys that Jefferson Capital has filed a civil suit against me. In XX/XX/2019 I disputed an account with Jefferson Capital for a XXXX account they were trying to collect on they failed to prove the account was mines which resulted in the account being removed from all three of the credit Bureau. Since the removal of the account Jefferson Capital have never made any additional attempt to collect on the debt. So on XX/XX/XXXX I received some random mail from several attorneys that Jefferson capital filed a lawsuit against me, I immediately called Jefferson capital and spoke with a representative in the litigation department. When I asked her to explain to me why Im being sued if they removed the account and stopped collected on the account months ago she couldnt answer my questions. She then transferred me to the dispute Dept who I then spoke with a manager who couldnt explained to me why I was being sued if they had stop collecting on the account. The manager then told me she will send a email to the litigation Dept manager to give me a call back as they will be the better Dept to explain to me why Im being sued. No one have called me back. I have called on multiple occasions and spoken to multiple reps who keep transferring me to other departments because no one can answer the question as to why Im being sued. I was even transferred to the direct attorneys voicemail and I left a voicemail for them to call me back and still no one have called me back. On XX/XX/XXXX my wife told me that an officer came to the house looking for me to try give me papers from the lawsuit. I then called Jefferson captial once again and still no one is able to give me any resolution

I never received any documentation as to the amount the car was sold for, how much was credited towards my loan or any details on the exact amount of the loan that was still due.

Good Morning, On XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX XXXX to settle an amount for XXXX dollars for a canceled XXXX XXXX plan. We agreed upon XXXX to settle the account and show it as paid and closed. I paid the agreed upon amount and waited for it to reflect on my credit report. It finally was updated and was removed from my credit report initially. Later I noticed it was on my XXXX Credit report so I disputed it and it was successfully removed on XX/XX/XXXX. Report Number for this is XXXX in reference to account number XXXX with XXXX XXXX. Since this time I have started the process of buying a home and when my credit report was pulled I was shocked to discover that this account was back listed as a collection account with both XXXX and XXXX. I have disputed the account with both and it still hasn't been removed. I then called XXXX XXXX and they had no idea why it was showing on there end as no longer settled and weren't of any help. I then proceeded to go back through my bank statements and find the exact day and time I paid the settled account. There was a phone number listed that didn't match XXXX XXXX so I called it and it was another collection firm. She affirmed to me that I did in fact pay the debt and the amount I have referenced above that for some reason XXXX took back ownership of the account and she doesn't know why. So here I am not knowing " why '' a account I have settled is still showing as unsatisfied. On my bank statement the amount charged to me to settle the account also has XXXX listed so I am upset with this matter. Something is being done wrong and I find it highly offensive that no one seems to know why. How do you lose an account and then magically reopen it back up as not paid?

For two years I checked my credit report and saw XXXX XXXX XXXX collections reported by Jefferson Capital Systems LLC on my report. XXXX for {$200.00} and the other XXXX for {$500.00}. I contacted Jefferson Capital on XXXX XXXX, 2016, and they referred me to XXXX XXXX XXXX to settle the debts. I paid {$100.00} using my debit card over the phone, and it was debited on XXXX XXXX, 2016. I requested to settle the {$500.00} account as well, the agent told me that there was no other accounts in collection. I contacted Jefferson Capital again, the agent I spoke to also told me that there was no other accounts in their system when she searched using my social security number. I went to the XXXX website and disputed the charge. Jefferson Cap. rejected my dispute and confirmed that my debt was legit. I called them again, and in some miraculous ways they found the account. On XXXX XXXX, 2016 I called and made a payment in the amount of {$170.00} that settled the account ( {$500.00} ) in full. Since I paid over the phone using my debit card again, the money was debited on XXXX XXXX, 2016. After that I requested for the debts to be deleted, and they were deleted by XXXX XXXX, 2016. On XXXX XXXX, 2016 I checked my credit report on XXXX and realized that XXXX XXXX. reported a new XXXX XXXX charge in the amount of {$330.00} to be collected. I called their phone number XXXX twice on XXXX XXXX and twice on XXXX XXXX, 2016. Their automated system says " no one is available to answer your call at this time '' on both occasions and the call just ended. I called XXXX to dispute the charge, although the agent assured me that it will be deleted within 24hrs, she also recommended that I file a complaint with CFPB.

I have been receiving threatening calls about a debt I have no knowledge of. Repeatedly they have called me and when I ask who they are they refuse to tell me and are very rude, most times they hang up. I eventually managed to speak with someone told them to mail me the information as I did not feel comfortable giving out my personal information over the phone blocked the number and later received a knock on my door from my local sheriff 's dept with a court order suing me for the debt from said collector XXXX XXXX. I am away on business and receive a phone call from my sick mother stating they have called her and threatened her as well. They then proceeded to tell her all my personal business without my consent or knowledge. I called once again and reminded them at this point I'm in litigation with them and there was no reason for them to continue to harass me or any of my family about a debt they can not even provide a statement of. Apparently this debt is over 5 years old and was bought by another debt collector from a business that is closed down. I offered on a few attempts to try and make arrangements to pay whatever I owed as long as I was mailed a statement or itemized bill. I've never received anything and even made arrangements to try to take care of this matter. They are bullying and non compliant about negotiating with me. I am in the process of being taken to court by these people due to their lack of communication and providing necessary information. I want to countersue them for harassment due to my mother 's health declining since their repeated calls which I have documented. Please let me know what I can do as this is not ethical or right for them to do this to people.

I have never had JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM as a creditor. Per my research JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM is a debt collector falsely attempting to collect a debt that isn't there's. I have requested that JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM provide proof of alleged items. I request to be provided with specifically the original application, contract, note, or another instrument bearing my signature with JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM. In addition please provide the contract signed between JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM & 12 XXXX XXXX, notarized and sworn under penalty and perjury for JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM ability to collect this alleged debt. I request this under 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts. If information is not provided or the false reporting isnt removed ; as in Wenger v. Trans Union Corp., XXXX XXXX ( C.D.Cal. XXXX XXXX ), you may be liable for your willful non-compliance. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be reinvestigated. I further remind you that, as in White v. Experian Information Solutions, 993 F. Supp. 2d 1154 - Dist. Court, ( CD California XXXX ) ; you may be liable for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) by recklessly failing to follow reasonable procedures to ensure the accurate reporting of debts discharged in bankruptcy and by refusing to adequately investigate consumer disputes regarding the status of discharged accounts. Please send all validating records through the CFPB and certified mail to my address. I have uploaded a copy of my ID showing my mailing address.

The letter also go on to state that outstanding balances will be waived no later than XX/XX/XXXX. I called XXXX when I first recieved this letter to clarify that, yes, they were indeed disconnecting our service, despite the facts that we were long term customers and current on our accounts with them. I received another bill from them after I switched to a new provider. I called them again and clarified that balances would be waived. I believed my accounts with them had been settled and closed. I reviewed my credit report and I now have an account in collections from XXXX opened on XX/XX/XXXX for the amount of {$240.00}. I do not believe that this is valid. I have already disputed it with the collection agency, Jefferson Capital System. This was their response, " Account information disputed by consumer, meets FCRA requirements. ''

This involves my account with XXXX XXXX XXXX, and new returned phone XXXX and my entire account. My XXXX account was paid in full on XX/XX/2017 for a due date of XX/XX/2017. XXXX bills a month in advance of service. I closed my account with XXXX on XX/XX/2017. They actually owe me money. My Complaint is against Jefferson Capital Systems. They are reporting on my credit file for a debt that I do not owe related to XXXX. They report this in a way that is deceptive as if it is a current item, when it is not. it is 5 years old., This is not a valid debt as I owe no money to XXXX XXXX XXXX wrongly charged me fees, taxes, phone service for a phone I returned during the first 10 day grace period and XXXX also did not credit my account for charges related to the new phone that I returned to XXXX during the grace period. XXXX failed to reverse charges for service amounts and other charges. I paid in advance and XXXX did not credit me any of the charges they added regarding the new phone and they continued to charge me for a phone I didn't have- they had it. I was't using it but they were charging me anyway. XXXX continued to charge me month after month for service and phone number even a I closed the XXXX account on XX/XX/2017 a month and half later because they were not crediting me and were continuing to bill me wrongly and incorrectly. I decided to leave XXXX because they weren't correcting this after several attempts in contacting and speaking to them. I ported my phone number to XXXX and switched providers a month and half later. I didn't have service with them after XX/XX/2017. I owe nothing to XXXX. This is not a valid debt and this is also time barred.

I am writing to bring to your attention a concerning matter regarding a collection account held by Jefferson Capital, with the original creditor listed as XXXX. After conducting a thorough investigation, I am unable to find any record of an account in my name with the aforementioned entities. Upon reviewing my credit report, I was surprised to discover an entry from Jefferson Capital, claiming an outstanding debt related to a purported transaction with XXXX. Despite my best efforts, I have been unable to locate any information or documentation pertaining to this alleged account. I have contacted both Jefferson Capital and XXXX, and they have been unable to provide any substantive details or evidence of this debt. In light of this, I am formally disputing the validity of this collection account. I believe that there may be an error or misunderstanding in the reporting process, as I have no recollection of any financial transaction with XXXX that would lead to this debt. Additionally, both Jefferson Capital and XXXX have been unable to furnish any supporting documentation or verifiable information regarding this account. I kindly request your assistance in investigating this matter further and ensuring that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history. I believe that this discrepancy may be negatively impacting my creditworthiness, and I am eager to resolve it as soon as possible. Please let me know if there are any additional steps or information required from my end to facilitate this investigation. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to a prompt resolution. Thank you for your time and assistance.

I received a phone call last week stating I owe {$12000.00} for health insurance. I am a XXXX employee and was a XXXX XXXX before that - since 2010. I was XXXX before that. The XXXX/my XXXX XXXX has always paid my medical insurance directly from my paycheck. Ive never requested additional coverage ( especially to the tube of {$500.00} a month!!! ) I dont owe this debt. They sent me a letter in the mail today. It hasnt gone against my credit yet - but Im afraid it will. I have over 800 credit score and have had for over 20 years. Im tried to call the company and no one is available to speak to me. Even leaving a message cant be done because the automated system hangs up on me. This letter demands I provide my full social security number, account number, a description of my complaint ( their errors ), the dollar amount I owe ( even through they told me what I supposedly owe but so not owe ), date of their error ( but I have no idea what this is about - first time I heard of this was last week when the lady told me I owed 12 grand and hung up ), and a copy of my credit report. Um. Not o my no, but XXXX no. Im not giving a random company all the info they need to steal my identity. They cant even get it right that I dont owe a XXXX ton of money for something Ive never purchased. This is obnoxious. I dont owe them anything yet they dont provide a means to speak to someone, and the burden is on me to chase them down and provide vastly personal information. Why would I trust them with this info even if I did owe money???? How can I get them to stop asking me for money I cant owe since Ive ordered {$500.00} a month medical insurance I didnt need?

A complaint was file in 2021 ( see XXXX ). The company removed the item from my credit report but has since reported it, again, causing damage to my credit report. They have continued to update the reporting in order to cause further damage to my credit profile. They added collection to my credit reports without my knowledge! I checked & can't verify their registration in Louisiana! BOTH are FDCPA violations! Jefferson Capital put collection on my credit reports without my knowledge and in doing so, this violated the FDCPA Collection Practice by placing a collection account on my credit report without sending a letter to me. Plus there is NO verification from the XXXX Secretary of State that they are registered in Louisiana which is also against the FDCPA! I request that Jefferson Capitol verify the following information. 1. Full original Account Number 2. Date original Account was opened 3. Any written agreements between myself and the original creditor stating this debt is owed 4. Full account summary and itemized calculation of alleged debt 5. Date of the first delinquency 6. Dates and times of any phone calls made and to what number in attempt to contact me concerning the alleged debt before it was reported to an agency, and so proving that these calls were made in the times governed by FDCPA law. If Jefferson Capital Systems is unable to provide the above identifying account information, this account must be deleted from all CRAs. Jefferson Capital Systems also failed to follow FDCPA by not sending a letter giving the consumer time to dispute or validate the alleged debt within the allowed 30-day time frame that is allowed by law.

My identity has been comprised since sometime in XXXX at least. Last XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, I received a notice from the Virginia Employment Commission ( VEC ) stating that I filed for unemployment benefits. However, I've been gainfully employed the last 16 years with the same company and my company denied the claim due to it's fraudulence. I filed a police report with my local police department, added a fraud alert and credit freeze and pulled my three credit reports. I saw three accounts that I did not open, charged off in collections- all opened in XXXX during covid. I reached out to XXXX XXXX and advised of the unauthorized account, I asked for proof such as picture ID or signed contract - they stated the account had been sold. I reached out to Jefferson Capital also advising them of the unauthorized account they stated they would look into it. I disputed the tradeline and it was validated by Jefferson Capital. Now, Jefferson Capital is suing me in district court, to collect on a fraudulent account opened with my stolen identity, which I have evidence it was stolen based off VCC letters, police report etc. I've asked Jefferson Capital to send me a signed contract ( if e-signed a picture of the signature ), picture ID of the applicant to identify who opened this account ( which could lead to the arrest of the perpetrator ), which would exonerate me of this debt and stop Jefferson Capital 's collection efforts. I request that Jefferson Capital cease all collection actions and delete their tradeline from all credit reporting agencies permanently. Any legal fees or wages lost may be added to my countersuit in court or via arbitration.

I had opened a phone account with XXXX XXXX in XXXX. I stopped paying on the account in XXXX ( exact date unknown ) when I lost my job and could no longer afford my phone. Eventually, the account went to a collection agency in XXXX I believe. However, my credit report shows the collection account was opened in XX/XX/XXXX but that is not correct. That may be when the account was sold to the current agency, but the account was originally reported in XXXX and therefore, is too old to appear on my credit report. I have disputed this with XXXX several times but the issue remains unchanged. I have contacted XXXX XXXX to obtain only the dates of which I opened my account with XXXX and the date of which the account was closed due to non payment. The representative I spoke with refused to provide this information to me because I was no longer a customer and was told I would need to contact the collection agency with any questions I had. However, if I reach out to the collection agency, this will restart the time for which the account will appear on my credit, another XXXX years. I am submitting this complaint against XXXX XXXX for the fact that they refused to provide me with information pertaining to my own account after providing requested personal identifying information to verify my identity. As a consumer, I should be afforded the courtesy of accurate information requested while investigating my own account information. Instead, I was treated unfairly and spoken to in a manner that was highly disrespectful. I believe XXXX XXXX is withholding information pertaining to my account unlawfully and I want this investigated immediately. Thank you

Jefferson Capital bought my XXXX wireless debt from XXXX XXXX collection campany - in XXXX XXXX. The original date of debt was back in XXXX with the original collector and the original company reported it correctly. After all these years I saw that the debt finally came off my report only to notice a couple months later that a new collection company put a new collection on my report. When I contacted this company I noticed that the amount was the same that I previously had on my report from the XXXX debt. Jefferson capital decided put on my report my old debt with a re-aged date of when they acquired my debt. When I spoke to the supervisor about this not being a legal practice and that they should n't penalize me all over again for my mistake that I made years ago they said that they reported the date that they bought the debt and that they are not re-aging or breaking any FCRA rules and regulations. I feel very hurt and upset that a collection company would lie and re-age my debt that I have already paid my price for. When I asked them to send me their prof of the documents that show exactly when I did n't pay this XXXX account that they put on all XXXX bureaus they said that everything is electronically done and they do n't have those files to send me. I asked them how that is possible to report collections onto peoples reports and not have the documents to support them. The supervisor said that if I have a problem then to dispute it because they did nothing wrong. I 'm disappointed Jefferson Capital is not following the rules. Please help me put this old debt behind me so that I wo n't be punished all over agin. Thank you, XXXX XXXX

I had a XXXX XXXX account back in XXXX it is a closed account and paid in full. The company is paid in full on all credit reports. This company is closed and paid in full and the credit reports reflect this. I tried contacting XXXX XXXX and they are no longer in business and now this company Jefferson Capital Systems LLC shows up on my report. A collection company called Jefferson Capital Systems LLC put on the credit bureaus that we owe money to them. I have documents from credit bureaus that this account is paid in full. Please help as no one at the credit bureaus are even looking into my accounts. This company is trying to collect something that is not owed to them. This company has impacted my credit horribly and they should not be allowed to get away with it. I am sending the credit information showing this company is fraudulently reporting and refuses to remove it. The credit bureaus are not taking the time to investigate the companies actions. Below is the information they are reporting to all three credit agencies. I called the company never heard of me. FRAUD! JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM Last reported XX/XX/XXXX {$6000.00} Open balance XXXX XXXX XXXX Original creditor XXXX Opened XX/XX/XXXX ( 9 mos ) Account status Open Type -- Responsibility Individual Remarks Account information disputed by consumer, meets FCRA requirements This is what it states on credit bureaus but it is fraud and does not meet FCRA requirements. It is actually violating FCRA in sections 608 and 611. Please investigate thoroughly as this company is violating FCRA and FDCPA very badly and falsely putting information on my credit reports under collection.

On XX/XX/2022 I sent Jefferson Capital Systems a letter asking them for Validation of a alleged debt that they said I owe them in the amount of {$840.00}. Instead of complying with my request and sending me what I asked for, they sent me invoices that are supposed to be mine. By validation, I am asking for the follwing : Agreement with your client that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt. Agreement that bears the signature of the alleged debtor wherein he/she agreed to pay the creditor. Any insurance claims been made by any creditor regarding this account. Any Judgments obtained by any creditor regarding this account. Name and address of alleged creditor. Name on file of alleged debtor. Alleged account number. Address on file for alleged debtor. Amount of alleged debt. Date this alleged debt became payable. Date of original charge off or delinquency. Verification that this debt was assigned or sold to collector. Complete accounting of alleged debt. Commission for debt collector if collection efforts are successful. They continue to attempt to to damage my reputation by reporting this collection account on my credit reports. I also am attaching a cease and Desist to this complaint and I need the company to cease all collection activity and cease communication about the debt which includes the reporting of this inaccurate information to my credit profile. By reporting this information to the credit bureaus they will be in direct violation of the cease and desist letter attached to the complaint and the credit bureaus will be complicit in this violation if they continue to report the account as well.

I tried so many time to contact XXXX regarding this billing XXXX/XXXX. I always took a one hour lunch and spent it days on end on hold with XXXX. I could never get anyone to come on line. The only response is automations encouraging you to wait. My simple question was how did my billing get to be so expensive, and I was suspecting there was some form of fraud. After I had finished my term for the job I decided to wait all day to talk to someone no matter what or how long it took. I was told there were movie rentals which I did not give approval for, but still no one could have a bill that large from movies. I ask the representative to send me the billings for the past months so that I could see detailed information. So finally I did get a billing with only dates and dollar amount with no explanations as to what the charges were for. I was discouraged and sad that I had to give up XXXX. Within the next few months I began checking my credit reports only to find that XXXX had written off the billing as a Charge Off. I was relieved and truthfully at my age I would probably be dead before the bill was paid. So it was written off and I believed that to be true because it was on the credit reports. I do understand collections and know that some old billings do get sold for maybe XXXX cents and a new collector like this one is trying to collect. If it is written off then I am not obligated. However if I should every win the lottery then I will pay anything I owe off in a heartbeat. I am not happy about this interruption and will be going through my old credit reports to look for the Charge Off. I think someone needs to do their homework.

This is a two-fold issue, I will address these separately below : 1 ) Collecting a Time Barred Debt : In XX/XX/2022, while looking for information about a similarly named family member on the XXXX website, my wife discovered what appeared to be an open case against me with our local court. We had no knowledge of this case having never received a summons or any other communication regarding this XXXX XXXX XXXX case. On XX/XX/2022 my wife called the debt collector involved, XXXX XXXX XXXX, to resolve the issue NOT KNOWING OR BEING ADVISED that this was now a time barred debt that we could not be sued for. At no time during her conversation with the XXXX XXXX representative was she informed of this and that by speaking with this representative she was actually restarting the clock on this old debt. 2 ) Reneging on Agreement : During the conversation with this representative, a financial agreement was made and my wife was informed that as soon as the agreed upon amount was paid, a Satisfaction would be sent to the Court. On XX/XX/2022 we received an email confirmation from this representative. On XX/XX/2022 the agreed upon amount of {$320.00} was made via phone to XXXX XXXX. This was posted to my wife 's bank account in the form of an ACH check on XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/2022 my wife emailed the representative informing her that the case was still showing as open on the XXXX website and asking to have it updated as per the Agreement. No response was received. On XX/XX/2022 my wife sent another email to " XXXX '' regarding the above. No response has been received and as of today, XX/XX/2022 the case is still showing as open.

When I was XXXX ( roughly XXXX years ago ) I opened a {$500.00} limit credit card with XXXX XXXX. I did not close out the account. The debt was sold to a debt acquisition company and sold again to a similar company ( Jefferson Capital Systems LLC ). This company waited until XXXX to enter the judgment against me and used " gutter service '' tactics so I had no idea I was being sued and I had no idea that court date was taking place and I was unable to represent myself. When the judgment was entered in XXXX of XXXX the debt had increased from the original {$500.00} amount credited to {$4500.00}. Jefferson Capital Systems LLC then waited until XXXX of XXXX to begin garnishing my wages. In the four years that passed ( XXXX ) the debt sky rocketed to an unrecognizable amount of {$10000.00}. Yes, a {$500.00} limit credit card turned into a {$10000.00} debt that continues to grow because it still collects interest. I am a single father that works 40+ hours a week and I am XXXX XXXX to try and move vertically in my company to create a better life for my child. I 've already paid over {$7000.00} via garnishment and I still have over {$6000.00} more to pay. This is obnoxious and unreasonable and unfair practices. I have been trying to defend myself but all my motions have been denied. My latest motion cited the federal trade commission to see copies of the original credit agreement and the documents I need to confirm the principal amount and confirm the debt amount was denied. Is there anything I can do to seek justice or will I continue to have the life sucked out of me for a debt that has been paid off 10 fold already?

I just picked up papers from post office regarding a judgement against me from XXXX XXXX. I attended school and graduated in XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX which is now closed down due to mismanagement of student funds. I was not aware that I even had private loans until after i graduated. Many students that attended this school was not aware of the private loans either and some students such as myself did not even get any funds that were left over after term was over. The school was to give unused funds back to XXXX XXXX or give to students but did not. At one point i was paying XXXX XXXX {$100.00} per month automatically from my checking account, then one day they stopped and honestly i thought it was because of all the mess that was surrounding the closing of the school. XXXX XXXX sold my loan to Jefferson Capital a collection agency, and I had never received any correspondence from them until last week. I 'm already overextended financially and with cost of living and other student loan payments. I work for a XXXX XXXX XXXX and some of my student loans are in the loan forgiveness program because of where I work and there are some student loans I have to pay because they did not qualify for student loan forgiveness and they are also federal loans. So I have contacted Jefferson Capital and I have like 20 days to to set up a payment plan, pay off or get judgement placed on my credit, then sued. I do n't know what to do or if those student loans from XXXX are even forgivable or dismissable. Although motion was filed by Jefferson Capital on XX/XX/XXXX, I did not received notification until a week ago

I have been trying to get correspondence regarding a repo Jefferson Capital Systems. I do know anything they report to the credit bureaus they must have proof of what they are reporting. The information must be 100 % accurate, 100 % verifiable, and 100 % timely. If they do no this is considered illegal and purposefully harmful. The reporting of this information has hindered me from obtaining credit. I have mailed two letters requesting proof of what they are reporting. Both sent certified mail ( attached ). The letters were hand-delivered to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX. The first letter was received on XX/XX/XXXX. Since I received no response as a courtesy, I mailed a second letter on XX/XX/XXXX. Both of my letters gave them 15 days to respond. In my letter, I gave the specific language of what should take place if no response. " Please know this is my second time writing you with no response. Please provide me with copies of the legal notices and proof of the commercially reasonable manner of the resale of the vehicle listed. If no proof is provided within 15 days of receipt of this letter, the alleged claim of a deficiency will be considered null and voided and any collection efforts or continued reporting activities of this invalid claim on my credit reports will be considered a violation.

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally dispute inaccurate and fraudulent information present on my credit report, as governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 USC 1681i ( a ). The following account is in question : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Public Information Type of Business Personal Loan Companies - Line of Credit - Bank Line of Credit - Bank - Bank Credit Cards Personal Loan Companies Student Loans Bank Credit Cards Bank Credit Cards Student Loans Personal Loan Companies Miscellaneous Finance Student Loans Bank Credit Cards Bank Credit Cards Line of Credit - Bank I have reviewed my credit report , and it has come to my attention that the information pertaining to the above-mentioned account is erroneous and has a detrimental impact on my creditworthiness. I believe that my rights under the FCRA have been violated, and I am formally requesting an investigation and correction of this matter. The account in question has been inaccurately reported as mine. I suspect that my personal information may have been compromised and used fraudulently to open this account. I have not authorized any such account, and this is a clear case of identity theft. The credit reporting agency has not sufficiently verified the accuracy of this information before including it in my credit report, which is a violation of the FCRA.

I had sold a phone i got and called my cell phone provider XXXX to close the account and cancell my service. They said they will get it taken care of. Got a bill in the mail a month later with ridiculous chargers. They never closed the account and the person I sold the phone too was using my old service which wasnt an unlimited plan. I call and dispute and they said they would fix it and dont pay the bill. So I dont Then I get 2-3 more bills in the mail with late fees and more charges from the provider. I dispute again and they tell me that I never asked to close the account. Which I did. So then they finally close the account and they tell me that I still owe that money even tho they messed up big time. I create a XXXX complaint and have corporate call me 3 times. By now they already but my stuff into collections still while its in a dispute phase. And they said they would look into it and they apologized but they never got back to me. When I followed up I got the head of corporate on the phone and they ensured it was going to be taken care of. 3 years later its still in collections and they are still trying to collect a debt I dont owe. I disputed the debt with the collection agency multiple times. And they hang up ever single time. I call them back and they still hang up. I recently successfully disputed it without a hang up and they still are destroying my credit with false claims. I told them to send a itemized bill and proof of debt and they havent sent anything to me. No proof that its owed and no proof that it is my debt. Yet its still impacting me and my family.

I received a court summons to appear on court for {$3400.00} credit card debt from a collection agency in Colorado. I called the number on the summons I explained to XXXX that I never received a XXXX credit card. He told me that ( XXXX ) XXXX had been sold to XXXX in XXXX. I reviewed my emails and bank account transactions. I did have a XXXX card since XXXX and had paid through automatic withdrawals from my bank account. I had never missed a payment. Also, I explained that I did not receive any notification from XXXX and that there is no record of a balance. XXXX had no record of my credit card and that I wanted to know why the amount was so large. By going paperless, I am not able to retrieve the card number or the monthly statements Emails are the only source of communication with XXXX. The maximum credit granted to me was {$1500.00} and I had stopped using the card and wanted to pay it off XXXX told me that he could reduce the amount I owed to {$2300.00} and I must pay in one or three payments. I explained that I could pay {$250.00} a month to settle this debt. XXXX threatened me by saying you owe this money and reminded me of the court date. Another person came on the call and told me the only offer available to me to settle this debt was {$360.00} for 8 months, I reminded him that I did not have any statements and still needed more information. XXXX told me that this was the only option for me. So, I agreed to his terms Please let me know if this is a legitimate XXXX legal process for a person in this situation.

I noticed that Jefferson Capital LLC aappeared on all three credit reports in early XXXX. The amount listed is {$1900.00} and the original creditor listed is XXXX XXXX. The date Jefferson Capital opened this was XX/XX/2019. I never received one notice or one phone call from this company and they never once allowed me to verify the debt or offered to verify the debt. I called them after I saw this on my report in XXXX and they were very rude and eventually I was transferred and hung up on. Late XXXX, I received a letter for payment in the mail from this company, but there was no verification or an offer to request a verification/dispute. The wording of the letter was threatening and not clear at all. It was worded in a way to confuse you or trip you up. It threatened a lawsuit even after it said the time limit had expired for that. It offered payment options, but then said payment would restart a lawsuit. I feel as though this company practices unfair and deceptive collection practices. I had zero collection accounts on my credit until this account was underhandedly added. I do not agree I owe this and I feel like my rights under the FDCPA have been violated in a few ways. First, I was never given a verification. Second, I was never given an opportunity to dispute this account. Third, threatening with a lawsuit is not legal when you have no justification to carry that out. I have also filed complaints with XXXX and if I can't get Jefferson Capital to delete their presence off my credit report completely and cease collection activity, I will consult with a consumer attorney.

In XX/XX/2018 I reviewed my credit reports and found that there was an inaccurate report of an account that was not mine. I contacted the company XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and requested full validation pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act. My request for validation including competent evidence bearing my signature and instrument used to secure a contractual agreement where I am obligated to pay you. I made it clear in my letter that the negative marks found on my credit report from the ( 3 ) reporting bureaus from their company or any other company that they represent for this debt that I do not owe is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA and I request that if this debt can not not be validated you must take steps to have all reporting bureaus delete this entry. In response I received the statement attached from XXXX XXXX along with details of the sale of this account to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I immediately contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX, I re addressed a copy of my letter sent to XXXX XXXX and mailed it delivery certification ( see attached ) on XXXX XX/XX/2018. I have not received a reply. It is over the 30 days time frame and out of compliance. Under advise, I wish to informed XXXX XXXX XXXX that I am prepared to take steps and file a small claim in my county small claims court. I would like to make this one last good faith effort and ask for the assistance of the CFPB in obtaining one of two things 1. that this company provide me with full debt validation as per FCRA & FDCPA 2. deletion of this invalidated account from my credit reports

A new debt popped up on my credit report listed for XXXX XXXX for XXXX XXXX for {$140.00}, an electric bill from the state of Michigan. It was listed as the debt collector being XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called XXXX on XXXX to get a copy of the original bill but it was from XXXX and they did n't have record of it once it was sold to XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, I was told to contact them. I called XXXX XXXX on XXXX and was referred to XXXX XXXX XXXX at ( XXXX ) XXXX, apparently they were handling the collection for XXXX XXXX. I contacted total card inc on XXXX and told them I have never received anything from them about the debt. I also informed them that they placed the debt as being from XXXX XXXX when I have n't lived in Michigan in at least 5 years. The representative from XXXX XXXX XXXX told me that she would not send me the original bill, she would only send me their company invoice which would just state how much I owe them, not the original debt date. I told her I had contacted XXXX and that the original debt date was XXXX, charged of XXXX XXXX. The representative from total card inc then told me that they would put the correct dates of the debt on my credit report only if I paid them the {$140.00}. To my knowledge I thought this was illegal. The representative told me I could email XXXXXXXXXXXX for a validation of the debt but since XXXX XXXX XXXX bought the debt there 's no guarantee I 'll receive the original bill and to just pay it so it reflects correctly. I want the correct dates of this debt and I believe I am owed the original bill with the correct dates of the debt.

Between the years XXXX to present, A XXXX XXXX account was posted on my credit reports for the amount of {$2600.00}. I started a review of my credit reports around XX/XX/XXXX and noticed the account on my credit reports and requested a dispute because this was in fact not my account. On XX/XX/XXXX I was served with a summons in regard to this XXXX account by Jefferson Capital Systems and the attorney on file ; XXXX XXXX. The summons states that I am the assignee and owner of this account. I have determined that this account is a result of someone using my personal information fraudulently from XXXX, MI and opening this XXXX account illegally. This account has been reported on my credit reports for over 3-4 years and should have never been attached to my personal information. The facts that this is not my account are : 1. I have never opened a XXXX Account in any State or the State of Michigan ; city or county, etc. 2. I have never lived, rented or owned any property that would require me to open a XXXX account. 3. I have never given anyone permission or consent to use my personal information and social security number to open a XXXX account as stated. 4. I have never lived in the city of XXXX, MI and never resided at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MI as listed on the XXXX account billBetween the years XXXX to present, A XXXX XXXX account was posted on my credit reports for the amount of {$2600.00}.

I opened a account with ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX ( Original creditor ) back in XX/XX/16. I was told my bill by sales rep that my bill would be would be {$160.00}. per month give or take a dollar. Got my first bill which was over {$400.00}. Went back to store spoke with the same guy and he stated its high due to being prorated, so I paid him cash. I asked if my next bill would be what he originally quoted he stated yes. So I get the next bill and it was even higher. Went back to the store and was told he was no longer there I tried many times to resolve this issue and wanted to return the 2 phones and was told that they could not do that. Paid my bill and left. I tried to get the main MGR on the phone and was repeatedly told he was in a meeting. I went to an actual XXXX store in XXXX, MD and was told that they could only help if I brought the plan through them and that the store I dealt with was a franchise and would have to deal with them. I closed my account on or about XX/XX/16. Checked my credit a few months later and saw that they put it on as a collection. Every time I get this resolved it pops back up again.The 2nd one is Jefferson Capitol Systems was the next, then now its XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. It keeps getting sold and sold and I have explained it till I was blue in the face. I cant seem to win. I have only the above ( Jefferson Capitol on my credit but I am sure XXXX will pop up soon.. I am trying to get this removed but to no avail. Jefferson keeps stating that they are the original creditor and restarting the battle all over. Any help is appreciated.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I have recently received a copy of my credit report with the intention of trying to improve my credit and take care of my responsibilities so that I may become a first time home buyer. I noticed several accounts that should not be on my credit report and thus should be deleted. I am not stating theyre accurate or inaccurate, however I am not 100 percent sure if they are. Recently I discovered the Fair Credit Reporting Act where it states by law, I have rights to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. The Creditors who have reported inaccuracies on my credit I have never heard of which positioned me to mail in this letter of concern. I'm sure you are familiar with Article 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a ), as it states that if you cant provide proof, these accounts must be deleted. I would like for the inaccurate accounts ( listed on the next page ) to be deleted. If possible can you check on these accounts and get back with me? Its imperative that these accounts are removed in order for me to become eligible for home loans. If there is any paperwork that I need to sign to confirm the listed inaccurate accounts are not mine please email me the required documents. This is a written dispute of this account per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Billing Act. Please be Aware that I am exercising all of my rights per these laws and all other applicable laws protecting me. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

when reviewing my XXXX XXXX account I noticed that there was a credit report from XXXX for the amount of XXXX. I called XXXX to see what this account was in reference to, they stated this was a cell phone bill, Which I have never has a cell phone with XXXX that was not pre-paid. they stated it was short term account I ask if they had my signature or Id on file they stated they could not give me no information because they transferred the collection over to Jeffery Capital System lLC. They gave me the number. My first attempt was to despute on XXXX XXXX which they denied. I than Reached out to Jeffery Capital on XX/XX/XXXX to try and resolve the debit, Because I am working on my credit score to purchase a home. I spoke with XXXX who stated that they could reduce the Bill to XXXX dollars if paid in full, I requested that they send me a letter with the company letter head stating if I was to pay this Debt in the amount of XXXX they would take the collect of XXXX off of my credit report. The response I got was " we are unable to do this. '' I did not at this time feel comfortable paying this amount without it in writing, providing that I do not believe this was my debt in the first place. On XX/XX/XXXX I tried calling the Company again to settle the debt once again because this is affecting my credit score, I spoke with XXXX Who stated that the debt was no longer with them, she would give me another number to call. Which I was never notified that this has been transferred. On my credit report it has Jeffery Capitals system LLC as the debt collector.

I have one negative item listed on my credit. The account was originally for a " XXXX XXXX '' back in 2008. The account was paid as it should have been. I never heard anything from anyone until recently I inquired my credit reports and noticed that a delinquent mark was added for non-payment. This account was never in default or collections. The collection company that has claimed it is, is Jefferson Capital LLC. I have been going back and forth with them regarding this inaccurate item. I have sent numerous demands for validation regarding this account, which they have never responded to. I have also inquired with the XXXX credit bureaus and disputed the item that was listed on my credit. They came back to me with saying the debt was in fact mine, and that it will stay on my credit. I know the account was mine. That was never the item in question. The item in question was why they are reporting information that is not correct, especially after this account was paid in full and never went delinquent. After all my options were exhausted I contacted the Federal Trade Commission, only to find out that they company that is refusing to remove this negative mark has been sued by the FTC and lost. They were sued for unfair collection practices, and many more things. From what I gather by law, this is not supposed to be part of my credit, and needs to be removed immediately. Unfortunately I do not have any items pertaining to the payment of this account as it was over 7 years ago. I hope we can get this resolved, and removed from my credit. Thank you.

I was contacted during the Pandemic by Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC which said they purchased a credit card account I had with XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX had already inflated my credit amount ( by giving me incorrect balance amounts while on vacation and this card services allowed me to keep charging over the balance limited amount ) and the result was financially impossibility for me to settle. The XXXX card began to charge over the balance fees, late fees and some other charge fees. the balance was almost {$2000.00} over the limited. Then the Pandemic happened and I could not afford to pay the XXXX card. During the Pandemic Jefferson Capital System, LLC contacted me to create a agreeable settlement. I agreed to settle with a final 1 time payment of {$2100.00}. Purchased a bank check, after they drafted a letter which said the debt would be paid in full upon receipt of the proper check. See attached letter and proof from Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC This collections has messed up my credit with XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I sold my auto which had expensive repairs and often inoperable. Now I can not qualify for a auto loan because of this false collections. Auto loan companies use XXXX and XXXX XXXX... I have either been declined or received very high interest offers. Can You help? XXXX does not show this collection and my score is much higher ( Good status ) but auto loan companies do not use XXXX as I have been told. What a racket hurting the general public and making are life worse. Again can you help this XXXX single women?

This is a complaint against XXXX, Jefferson Capital, and XXXX regarding a collections on file from XXXX XXXX. This collection originated from XXXX for an early termination fee ( ETF ). I have not been a customer of XXXX since XXXX. When making plans to cancel my service with XXXX, I spoke to the customer service department to get the correct date for cancellation. I kept my service for another six months in order to cross the contract 's line before terminating as instructed. I was never invoiced for this ETF from XXXX nor did I receive any calls regarding this fraudulent charge. In XXXX, XXXX sold the bogus debt to Jefferson Capital, INC. Jefferson Capital has contacted me by phone multiple times, however I told them to send me the details in the mail so I had them in writing before determining what this collection was for. They never complied with my multiple requests over FOUR YEARS. Because of this failure of being upfront and credible, I've stopped answering any of their harassing phone calls and refuse to deal with them anymore. I've disputed this twice with XXXX and they say they have done a satisfactory investigation into the matter. It is clear they have not because XXXX dropped this exact collections filing IMMEDIATELY upon receiving my dispute. I attached XXXX XXXX documents to my dispute filing with XXXX to serve as proof and make their job easier. XXXX ignored said attachments. This is a ridiculous abuse of power over a small consumer 's credit during a time many of us need the protections of credit the most.

Jefferson Capital Systems has reported a collection on all XXXX credit reporting agencies. I have sent debt verification letters to the address listed here on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX with no response. I never received a letter or statement from Jefferson Capital regarding this issue. The dates stated on this account are innacurate. I did not open an account with XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I have not had any dealings with XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX and the account was settled. This account seems to be closing and re-opening on my credit file. This company is stating that I owe the amount of {$830.00}, but no proper validation has been received. I request that Jefferson Capital verify the following information. 1. Full original Account Number 2. Date original Account was opened 3. Any written agreements between myself and the original creditor stating this debt is owed 4. Full account summary and itemized calculation of alleged debt 5. Date of the first delinquency 6. Dates and times of any phone calls made and to what number in attempt to contact me concerning the alleged debt before it was reported to an agency, and so proving that these calls were made in the times governed by FDCPA law. If Jefferson Capital Systems is unable to provide the above identifying account information, this account must be deleted from all credit reporting agencies. Jefferson Capital Systems also failed to follow FDCPA by not sending a letter giving the consumer time to dispute or validate the alleged debt within the allowed 30-day time frame that is allowed by law.

There are several violations here : 1. XXXX XXXX charged me for services that were not delivered. My cell phone rarely worked at my home and dropped calls often when traveling for 9 months I had service with them. They never improved the service or reduced the bill. 2. XXXX agreed to cancel the remaining unpaid month of service, {$120.00}, if I paid off the phones I purchased from them for {$1200.00}. I paid for the phones, but they continued to try and collect for the bad service, finally turning it over to a collection agency. They refused any further effort I made to dispute the bill. 3. Jefferson, the debt collection agency, increased a {$120.00} disputed bill to {$620.00}. They refused to cancel the bill or decrease the amount back to {$120.00}, the original XXXX XXXX bill. XXXX. The three credit agencies did not contact XXXX about the original bill after I disputed the bill. Instead, the only contacted Jefferson, who continued to validate the bill. The agencies also did not require Jefferson to reduce the disputed bill back to {$120.00}, but continued to keep the disputed amount at {$620.00}, even though I told them the amount should be reduced, at a minimum. Facts : 1. Cell phone debt has a federal statute of limitations of two years. After the statute of limitations has expired on a debt, it is considered time-barred. 2. I advised the 3 credit agencies of this fact, but they refused to delete the bill from their files. Jefferson Capital System also refuses to stop reporting this bill to the credit agencies as a debt.

I have for some time disputed Jefferson Capital about balance incorrect information and incorrect charge off dates and account information. To no avail I get the same response Verified Accuracy. Then decided to dispute again. XX/XX/XXXX Sent in dispute on XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX and XXXX and XXXX replied back on disputes as Verified Accuracy and the entire process took less than a week. They did send one charge statement that appeared to be doctored up and so decided to dispute this actions with a new letter of dispute mailed to all three credit agencies XX/XX/XXXX because Jefferson Capital decided to retaliate against me for initial dispute in XX/XX/XXXX dispute and XX/XX/XXXX XXXX account showed Account was Flagged For Collections and this was happening often like every other day tanking my credit scores down 60 points each on all three credit reports. Then they fraudulently reported NEW Collection Accounts were showing up with charge offs dating XXXX!!! What!!!!! This also lowered my credit down even more and the number of collections were up by four more additional. Jefferson Calital was refreshing older debts and creating new collection accounts using existing collections and changing account numbers and so I called them and they were unhelpful and rude and I called XXXX and they said they didn't receive anything from Jefferson Capital that my second dispute clearly ask for proof and they failed to submit what was specifically asked and could not produce and nor did they delete these accounts as per FCRA regulations.

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX EST, I received a call from a company called XXXX ( sp ) claiming they called on behalf of XXXX XXXX in regards to a debt that they obtained from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I informed the gentlemen that I had not received any communication from either his company nor XXXX XXXX and that I was formally requesting information regarding this alleged debt from them. I had not received any communication from either company prior to that date and I requested validation of the account via the phone. The guy refused to provide me with information regarding this debt via the mail and kept saying, " we will email you '' and " this is already in collection '' and " we don't use mail ''. I have a legal right to request communication regarding alleged debts to be mailed to me via the United States Postal Services, and this company refused my right to this request. When I informed him that I was recording the call ( Georiga is a one-party consent state where I can give consent to record a call without prior notice ) he hung up on me. This is a direct violation of my right to request information in writing from a debt collector on an alleged debt. XXXX XXXX is now reporting this debt on my credit report, and the company they hired to collect this debt violated my rights. This account must be removed due to a violation of my consumer protection rights. I have an audio recording of this phone call, as does XXXX since they record all calls, so there is audio proof of this company 's refusal to honor my rights as a consumer.

Despite several disputes filings date ( s ) XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX verbally and written and recently in XXXX requesting debt validation from Jefferson Capital has failed to report any change. XX/XX/XXXX a certified letter was mailed to XXXX XXXX XXXX, a representative listed and collection agent for Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. requesting removal of the debt, to date no response has been received. Despite my efforts each investigation from the Credit Reporting Agencies has resulted unfavorable and continues to report as " verified as accurate. '' According to the FCRA Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) and Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) mandates " promptly '' DELETION of all information that can not be verified. '' I have included proof of certified mailings addressed to the Credit Reporting Agencies ( CRA ). ( see attachments ). According to the FCRA, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) required by federal law verification through the original signed consumer contract for all accounts posted on a credit report. ( see attachment ) To date, debt validation has not been satisfied according to the FCRA statue ( s ) my consumer rights have been violated.

Received a letter from a company named Jefferson Capital Systems LLC claiming that I owed just under {$150.00} for an unpaid cell phone bill from XXXX XXXX When I contacted the company to inquire about the debt, I was transferred to a call center in XXXX who gave told me that they were going to report the debt to the credit agencies if I did not pay them the debt immediately. Since I had not had any cellular service with XXXXXXXX XXXXr since XXXX, nor had the company ever attempted to contact me in any way claiming that I had an unpaid balance, I was obviously very skeptical. Knowing that this was likely a scam at this point, I then contacted XXXX XXXX directly to inquire if they had any record of any outstanding balance due on my old account. They pulled my old account data and confirmed that there was no balance due, nor did they report any debt to any collection agency. When I contacted Jefferson Capital Systems back and confirmed to them that XXXX XXXX informed me that there was no debt nor had they been hired to collect such debt, the representative became very hostile before stating that they would just " forgive '' the debt. It appears very likely that this outfit has somehow obtained a list of XXXX XXXX 's old customers and is attempting to scam them out of small amounts which would be similar to that of an XXXX so that the victim doesn't ask any questions or contact the company to verify the debt. I guess we can add this to the endless number of debt collection scams out there predating on hard-working Americans.

On XX/XX/XXXX i sent Jefferson Capital systems a VALIDATION of debt request, requesting certain documentation that can prove the debt is valid and that the debt belongs to me. Jefferson capital then sent me a fraudulent bill. I asked for a signed contract note, and other documents be sent to me which should be easily found and provided if this debt is valid. Verifying my name and address is NOT validation of debt. Jefferson Capital MUST under the FCRA provide me with all of the documents i requested under the FCRA and the fair debt collection practices, but as of yet has not. Please see the document attached ( 2 ) as i sent them a validation request and a second notice to let them know that the requested documents have still not been received. The attached notification were sent certified mail and verified received. The solution to this issue from Jefferson Capital is that it cease and desist all collection efforts and that the alleged debt be removed from all 3 credit files within 30 days of this complaint. If Jefferson Capital refuses this resolution it MUST provide the following : The agreement with your client which legally grants Jefferson Capital the authority to collect this alleged debt. The signed agreement Debtor has made with Debt Collector, or other verifiable proof Debtor has a contractual obligation to pay Debt Collector. Any agreement that bears the signature of Debtor, wherein agreed to pay Creditor. All statements while this account was open. No other resolution will be acceptable in this matter.

A XXXX XXXX branch has repeatedly placed fraudulent credit debt collection accounts for an amount that i do not owe, is highly inaccurate, and i am not accountable for. I had a XXXX phone account that was payed and ended in XXXX. The final bill was {$310.00} and I payed it and later ended my service. The company proceeded to illegally give my email, current account and following current number I had rights to by the service contract while it was still in use to another person. Then proceeded to bill and place a false report on my Credit for an amount of {$730.00}. This was taken down in XXXX due to fraudulence and inaccuracy by XXXX As XX/XX/XXXX they place another false credit report of a account debt collection for {$710.00} through another state. I have already tried to contact the company and deal with the problem during XXXX and I even did ask for a corrected amount to the account that I had payed during the final {$310.00} and to get the account info they where using and they not only denied services when I co-operated while willing to pay a reasonable amount to resolve the issues in a proper manner for services that i didnt even have. But Their info was also entirely incorrect on their company side down to who's name was on the phone number tied to the account to inaccurate amounts while having my ID in their services falsely blacklisted with incorrect info. I am at the point where I will no longer try to co-operate with them and would rather sue them for fasely ruining my credit and report their illegal actions.

Per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ), The Congress makes the following findings : ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. ( b ) Reasonable procedures It is the purpose of this subchapter to require that consumer reporting agencies adopt reasonable procedures for meeting the needs of commerce for consumer credit, personnel, insurance, and other information in a manner which is fair and equitable to the consumer, with regard to the confidentiality, accuracy, relevancy, and proper utilization of such information in accordance with the requirements of this subchapter. So, at any instance, where there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a deprivation of my rights and a violation of my privacy, as well. With my consumer report, I control what is listed and what is not, and if in the event any accounts are reported without my expressed, written consent, it is considered identity theft. This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 to which there exists liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for $ XXXX per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

After reviewing my credit report I filed a dispute with XXXX for a debt held by Jefferson Capital Systems in the amount of {$2400.00} from XXXX XXXX. I filed the dispute on XX/XX/XXXX. About a week later I spoke to a representative from Jefferson Capital Systems pointing out that the debt was fraudulently linked to me. I have never had XXXX XXXX as a service provider. Additionally, the other address they referenced was located in West Virginia. I have never lived in nor visited West Virginia. I also do not have any family in West Virginia. Over the phone, the representative noted that she would add that I said that the debt was not mine and that they would no longer contact me. I received a letter from Jefferson Capital on XX/XX/XXXX regarding the debt. The letter indicated that if I did not reply in writing to the letter within 30 days, they will assume the debt is valid. Because they did not indicate the proper address to send the letter to, I sent letters to the following address on the letter I received : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NC XXXX And XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX Additionally, on XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to call their offices at XXXX CDT since their website said they were open until XXXX CDT. Upon calling I received notification that no one was available to answer calls. I disputed this debt a few years ago and it was removed from my credit history. However, I'm assuming it was resold to Jefferson Capital who is now attempting to collect the debt that had already been cleared from my history.

I was contacted by a collection company in XX/XX/XXXX regarding an amount of {$550.00} owed to XXXX XXXX. I stated that I had not had an account with XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX and my balance was completed paid. I asked for verification and further details about this amount owed and was referred to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I sent a letter correspondence in XX/XX/XXXX asking for proof and verification regarding this debt and stated if in fact owed I was willing to make payment with removal of derogatory collection remarks. No verification or response was received. I then went ahead and disputed it with all 3 bureaus in XX/XX/XXXX. This dispute was denied and in XX/XX/XXXX I requested verification again which went unanswered leading me to believe this collection was in error. I sent notice to all 3 bureaus again via certified mail. This dispute was again denied and a letter from XXXX XXXX was sent to my home stating they would not share or verify this account with the bureaus. At this point this collection remains on my account hindering me from qualifying for a federal mortgage first time home buyers program which I am praying to secure. I have no other blemishes on my report other than this and through my efforts have received no response or solution in my attempts to resolve this. This company has been using different collection agencies to contact me and even has different names on my report under the same collection. On XXXX they are under XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and on XXXX they are showing as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I am having an issue with a mysterious, old debt related to my XXXX XXXX account that I closed in XX/XX/. It was closed with XXXX debt. I have emails from XXXX stating that my account balance is XXXX dollars. I have emails documenting my account activity. I paid my bill using autopay from my debit card. XXXX had my card on file. In XXXX of this year I received an email from XXXX stating that I have an outstanding balance of {$44.00}. Apparently they were collecting for Jefferson Capital, who was collecting for XXXX XXXX. I asked for details, explaining the whole thing in detail. I am attaching a printout of my email communication with XXXX. They acknowledge that they don't have a record for me and told me they will cease collection activity on my account ( please refer to the attachments for a detailed overview ). XXXX account fell of my XXXX credit report after that conversation. They never stopped harassing me via email despite their multiple statements that they are not collecting on the debt anymore. Eventually I just blocked their address. This brings us to today, I checked my XXXX credit report, and that collections account is back on my credit report. I have explained my times that I will pay what I owe, I need to know what I am paying for and why. This is beyond frustrating, I know I can just " resolve '' the issue by paying the {$44.00}. It doesn't fair or prudent though. Thank you for your help. XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have many more emails that I can forward. I would need an email address though.

In 2020 I purchased phones from XXXX. We were lied to by a predatory sales agent about XXXX service and bill amount and when we went to address it, the agent had been fired. XXXX greatly reduced the amount owed on the account and only made us pay the balance of the phones as an apology. ( from XXXX to XXXX ). A few years later the difference showed as a debt to Jefferson Capitol Systems on a credit report. We contacted XXXX and they said there was a mistake and it would be handled. They said it sometimes happened whenever accounts are paid off. I waited 6 months and it never went away. I was told to contact Jefferson capitol. They said they could not remove it, that they purchased the debt from XXXX so to them it is a debt. I attempted to pay it to just be done with it even though I shouldnt have had to and they said it cant be paid because they no longer have it and that they sent the debt to a sister company in ( XXXX ). I was never notified. When I contacted XXXX they said they did not have it that it was sent back. I was not notified about this either. Only Jefferson Capitol shows on my report. Neither debt collector has any information nor will allow the debt to be paid. XXXX did not even know the balance owed and didnt have any information they could use to verify who it belonged to. I have done everything I can short of hiring an attorney and contacting the police. To them this is a non-issue and an everyday practice, to me and my family it is hurting our ability to purchase a home..

At the end of XXXX, I sent a request to the credit bureaus to address inaccuracies on my credit file. On XX/XX//2019, I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX deceitfully presenting me with paperwork to resemble a " validation of debt ''. Nowhere in this information did the company provide a contract that they legally obtained the debt and was authorized to collect on it. They also failed to provide me with validation of the debt according to FDCPA. This company has willingly, deceitfully, and illegally attempted to collect a debt without honoring my rights as a consumer to validate the legitimacy and ownership of the debt. Upon research of this particular firm, I found several court documents to substantiate that XXXX often engages in these illegal and unethical business practices. They utilize misrepresentation such as seen on page 2 of their letter. They have created a word document and deceitfully represented that as a " validation of debt '' when in fact IT IS NOT in accordance to the FDPCA laws, which they are aware of based upon the numerous lawsuits that this office has had dismissed for this very practice over the last ten years. Yet, then continue to violate the laws they are to adhere to. They have harmed me irrevocably caused harm in their continued reporting of a debt to my name that they have failed to validate and provide documentation that they legally obtained this debt. This harm has affected my financial well-being and ability to obtain credit in the past as well as the future.

This is a formal complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX located in XXXX, VA. This company has repeatedly violated my consumer rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and has caused me much unnecessary financial AND mental distress. For starters, they're reporting an erroneous & unverifiable collection account on all 3 of my credit reports, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX and not to mention an account in which I've asked for proof of claim and in which they have refused to validate per my request under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Despite my efforts to resolve this unfortunate nightmare for nearly a year now, XXXX XXXX XXXX has completely ignored my communications and legal submissions to remove this inaccurate information from my credit reports. I am well aware of the many, many other complaints filed against this company for their illegal and unethical collection practices - disguising themselves under multiple business names and using ILLEGAL collection practices all across the country. Yet, somehow, this company is still in business. This company 's unprofessional & negligent behavior has caused lots of serious harm, not only to my ability to establish credit & good interest rates, but also to my character as a Professional and as an individual. Please help me, and the many other consumers just like me, to put a stop to the operation of these unethical & immoral business practices immediately. I sincerely appreciate your time and assistance in this matter and hope to hear from you very soon.

In XX/XX/2022 I was surprised to find out that I was rejected from being able to accept the student loans that I had qualified for in order to send my daughter to college. This was a shock considering I am a single working mother with one job of over 28 years, and no debt at all except for a mortgage. I only have one credit card that I use, and I have no outstanding debt at all except my mortgage. I pay all my credit card statements in full each month, so there is no debt in my name. I asked for a full credit report from XXXX XXXX to find out why I was rejected. I was shocked to find that the report showed a name on my credit report that was not my name ( they have since taken off ). In addition, the report showed a phone number that I don't recognize. I have some credit cards that were issued in my name from XXXX including a debt collection agency ( Jefferson Capital Systems ) that has tried to get {$4200.00} from an unpaid XXXX XXXX account XXXX even though I have never had the credit cards named, nor have I I never had a XXXX XXXX account XXXX I issued an immediate investigation by XXXX XXXX and in XXXX I was told that the report was accurate. I have tried contacting Jefferson Capital Systems and have been unable to even get into their system. I also contacted my family financial advisor and she was unable to give me any names of people or companies that may help. I hope you can help to investigate further how these accounts were issued in my name and remove them from my credit history! Thank you.

Complaint Against : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, WI XXXX XXXX XXXX bought a debt of mine from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I received notification that the balance was {$2400.00}, but XXXX XXXX never would confirm amount of original debt. Prior to XXXX, I made payments against the debt totaling {$1100.00}. ( XXXX payments of {$250.00} and XXXX payment of {$400.00} ) - I was unable to make payments during the height of COVID. XXXX XXXX moved to garnish my wages in XXXX and in XXXX, XXXX received a garnishment payment in the amount of {$1200.00}. At this time, XXXX XXXX reported to my employer that the account was paid in full. ( Payments, including garnishment equaled {$2400.00} against an original debt of {$2400.00} ) Today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) 2 months after reporting the account as paid in full to my employer, XXXX XXXX garnished an additional {$860.00} from my wages, under the same case number for Jefferson Capital XXXX XXXX XXXX and is again reporting the original / full balance as due. To date I have paid XXXX XXXX {$3200.00} on what was reported as an original balance of {$2400.00} ( even though I assume the actual debt amount was much lower before being purchased by XXXX XXXX ). After speaking with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, they will only agree to report my account as disputed. I feel I am owed the {$860.00} that was taken today, XX/XX/XXXX and I need an assurance that they can not just report this account as unpaid every few months, leading to my wages being garnished.

Upon applying for a mortgage refinance in XX/XX/2018, I found that a company XXXX XXXX dba XXXX had opened a collection item that was reflecting on both credit /bureaus and negatively impacting my credit score. I called XXXX who told me they could not help me as the account was being handled by their subsidiary XXXX XXXX. I called XXXX XXXX and explained to an agent that I never applied for or received the XXXX 's debit card their company is negatively reporting as a collection item on my credit profile. I was told something to the effect that XXXX XXXX could not access the information on the account but the agent took my information and submitted the negative item as fraud. I also questioned the validity the item since it is reported as a XXXX 's debit card which is a card that draws directly from the applicant 's bank account. A debit card verifies and draws funds upon approval that the funds are present and accessible. The agent did not have any answers. A few days later, I received a letter from XXXX stating that they were not currently handling the negative item. I also received a couple of letters from XXXX XXXX one acknowledging my call/dispute and another requesting all of the same information I submitted to them over the phone. I completed the information and sent it back. I have called twice since for updates, but am repeatedly told there are no updates reflected on the file. In the interim, I am in the middle of a mortgage refinance and this negative item is driving down my credit score.

I have reviewed my credit file and have been turn down for credit due to Jefferson Capital listing me as still having active revolving line of credit with them. This item does show as XXXX balance however it does show as an active line of credit which is incorrect. I was told by XXXX Representative at the company on XX/XX/XXXX that a request to delete my information was placed to all XXXX credit reports. I still see this item listed and have been turned down for credit due to this situation. I spoke with XXXX from consumer relations department at Jefferson Capital who researched and stated that this item should have been deleted XX/XX/XXXX and stated that it was deleted however it still showed listed on my credit report. I would like full resolution on this matter I am a single mother working very hard to clean up my credit. I have paid XXXX of dollars to do so by filing chapter XXXX and have been discharged and I am very confused as to why this is still showing on my credit file and has prevented me from obtaining certain credit needed for my family. I have learned that this credit stared from XXXX credit card and was given to Jefferson Capital to act as their collection agency. When XXXX gave my information over to Jefferson Capital I was in an active chapter XXXX case. So this was incorrect reporting from the start. Because I lacked maturity and did not have the education and tools I have now I was not able to confront this situation. I would like your assistance with resolving this matter please.

I received a notification of a Collection Account on my credit report by Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC for {$340.00} this year from XXXX XXXX. I have not had a XXXX XXXX account for years, however as soon as I received that notification, I contacted the CEO 's office at XXXX XXXX. I told them that I did not owe this amount, that it consisted of charges that I never agreed to and that I had repeatedly told them that it was incorrect. The person I spoke with at the CEO 's office said 'Just a minute, I think I have a copy of your contract ' and then she got back on the phone and stated that there was no contract proving that I owed this amount. Therefore, I disputed this with the three Credit Reporting Bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ) online and I stated that these were Fraudulent Charges and that I wanted to see a Signed Contract and for the Debt to be Validated and Verified, and that if that could not be done that it should be removed from my credit report immediately. All that happened is that I heard back from the Credit Bureaus, online, with nothing in writing and nothing by mail, that Jefferson Capital had responded that the information was correct. I want to see a Signed Contract, and I want the Debt to be Verified and Validated, or for this collection account to be removed from my credit report with all three Credit Bureaus. I am XXXX years old and my only source of income is Social Security XXXX for XXXX XXXX and other Health Issues and this is exacerbating my XXXX and is harassment.

RE : Jefferson Capital Systems Acnt # XXXX Jefferson Capital is currently attempting to collect a disputed {$1100.00} debt it says it purchased from XXXX. As part of its attempt to collect this amount from me, it is reporting it to several consumer credit reporting agencies, including XXXX The amount they are attempting to collect on on is inaccurate, as I made a final payment to XXXX prior to the account supposedly going into collections. I had also disputed a portion of the bill with XXXX itself several years ago. I had service with XXXX for less than a month, and discontinued it because there was virtually no coverage in my house and the service was about useless to me. I was supposed to receive a " courtesy credit '' from XXXX due to this. I have disputed this debt to Jefferson Capital multiple times ( XXXX/XXXX/17 and XXXX/XXXX/17 ), in writing, to the address showing for them on my credit report, stating that the the information they are reporting is not accurate. Jefferson Capital does not appear to be taking any steps to investigate the disputes and has never even bothered to respond. I understand they are relying in part on information from their client, and they are in the business of debt collection and doing their job, but they do have an obligation to investigate and correct inaccurate credit information. I simply wish for Jefferson Capital to discontinue collection, and request whatever information it reported to whichever credit bureaus it reported it to, to be removed.

I had requested from XXXX XXXX to provide me with legal validation on the alleged claim that they claim I owe and had requested that they provide me proof of there ownership of this account. I had also request a copy of a signed authorization by me with the alleged original creditor to release my personal private information and the contract that I had with XXXX XXXX. I made this request in writing sent via certified mail return receipt to XXXX XXXX after discovering them on my credit report to this date I have received no response from the company and have never received a bill or statement my discovery of this company was on my credit report. XXXX states they have verified the debt I had request from XXXX the method of verification and the Supervisor stated that it is not kept on file it is electronic. I have also disputed the account to which I have no account number for only a dollar amount of XXXX opened XX/XX/2018 with all three of the CRA XXXX and XXXX have removed as unverified but they are continuing to report to XXXX. I demand validation from this collector. I demand they produce a valid contract. I demand they produce a signed authorization. They shouldn't be on my credit report for any reason but since they are, they certainly should not be there without an authorization to collect information and make communications about me and an alleged account. I do not owe this alleged debt that they are claiming I owe. I demand these items be removed from my XXXX credit file.

I have contacted for proper validation of debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX and this is a final attempt through here. Account # : Unknown Amount : {$890.00} To Collection Manager : This letter is to inform you that the validity of this debt is disputed. I am unaware of this account and have no verification this debt is mine. I only know of this account based on it being reported in my credit report ( s ). As we both know, I have the right to dispute this account, request for verification, and/or request for validation of this debt. However, in order to quickly resolve this account, I would like to see the contract/agreement and any other supporting document you may have that I have willingly entered into any sort of agreement with XXXX XXXX XXXX and if or where I agreed to have business with you or paperwork contracted for myself, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have made several attempts to reach your organization without resolve as each time because I am asked personal information which I do not feel obligated to give out to your representatives as I have no knowledge of being contracted to you in any way. Bills, and any statements that are originated from a secondary part are not considered validation of debt to you. Unless XXXX XXXX XXXX can provide proper validation as recognized in FCRA 15 U.S. Code 1692g ALL reported information regarding this account must be deleted from ALL credit reporting agencies immediately following receipt of this letter as specified above. Thank you.

I have been fighting identity theft since the day I turned 18 years of age, and it's almost a nightmare that never stops recurring. Since I was 18 years old I have had all three credit companies flag me for identity theft due to being a victim. I can not file income taxes online because I have to get an IP pin addressed to me every year that goes straight to the IRS headquarters in Texas. XXXX XXXX XXXX has recently placed two collections against me and on my credit report, one of which being for XXXX XXXX in the amount of XXXX $ and the other being XXXX XXXX in the amount of XXXX . Neither of these accounts belong to me nor have they ever been mine, I have been a XXXX XXXX subscriber since I was 18 years of age and have had the same phone number since I was 18 years of age, with no late or past due payments to this very date in time. I'm requesting complete removal and deletion for these two listed accounts as they are both fraud. My step-mother has been placed in jail on three different occasions for using my identity before finally getting a credit freeze placed on my account along with the IRS freezing my social and requiring a paper w2 to be mailed in leading to further my struggle in life because I have yet to receive one stimulus check because my identity can not be verified. This is absurd. Thank you for your understanding, this is a very hard day and age we live in. I didn't know being a victim of identity theft would haunt me for what seems like forever.

I contacted Jefferson Capital about the {$640.00} on my credit report showing as delinquent for a XXXX mobile account, and advised them that I have never had an acct with XXXX and my identity has been previously compromised. I filed a dispute with XXXX in XXXX regarding this same account and recently again with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, and awaiting response. I have had to freeze my credit with the XXXX breach, and with XXXX XXXX and XXXX notifications that my info ( SS ) has been compromised on the dark web. My credit report shows addresses in Louisiana to which I have never lived outside of Texas. I called Jefferson Capital the collection agency, on XXXX XXXX, to discuss/dispute the validity of the {$640.00} XXXX mobile account and and they did not even have my correct information ( name, address, social security, phone number ). I asked the person ( XXXX ), to mail me any documentation showing I opened an account or signed anything and he said they did not do that, and I stated I am not the owner of this account and never have been ( these calls should be recorded in its entirety ). How is it possible to validate putting this on someone's credit report without having their personal information, given this was the 1st phone call with me on XX/XX/XXXX. I have been a customer of XXXX for over 10 years, it states this XXXX mobile account was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. This is not my account nor has it ever been. I'm just looking for any assistance possible, in order to move on.

I submitted an online on XX/XX/XXXX through XXXX XXXX, to dispute and remove information from the creditor Jeff Cap Sys ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ), as this particular creditor has violated my rights and has been renewing and re-shuffling the negative item which is more than 10 years old on my credit report. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a notification from XXXX XXXX, that the creditor denied my request to remove the item from my report and I saw that the creditor UPDATED the date on the report to reflect this YEAR! The report was showing a date of opening in XXXX before the dispute, and now after the dispute it shows a date of XXXX! I don't have XXXX XXXX as a carrier, I've had XXXX XXXX XXXX for many years and I've been given discounts and recognition for being a matured customer with the company. From the attached credit report that was retrieved in XXXX, anyone can see that they reported this account being closed and opened in XXXX ; however looking at the result from XXXX XXXX it now shows an open date of XXXX! I'm so FED up with these types of creditors and sneaky collections agencies. I've submitted disputes more than once and for over 7-years it has remained on my credit report. I've lost potential employment due to this negative item upon my report in the past and PRESENT. In this time that we are in it's not warranted. I also have NOT been a customer of the creditor for many years now ; in addition, the information and amounts have been inflated and are inaccurate.

XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting on my credit reports that I owe them {$210.00} for an old bill from XXXX. The issue is that they refuse to verify that this account is mine / valid ALSO multiple collection agencies purchased this account and have put it on the credit reports of multiple people ( roommates ) who lived in the household ( four ). AND I've had another cell phone account for the last 15 years never had XXXX so?? Isn't it against the law for a collection agency to try to collect the same amount of money from multiple people and not provide any valid information showing the person who the account originally belongs to. I personally disputed this information with the credit agencies because I needed to see exactly who it belonged to since it's being reported on different household member 's report. They reported it as valid so I sent a letter asking how they validated it to provide information so that I can see who the account belonged to and so far they continue to refuse. This has been on my report for 3 years and has ruined my credit making the apr go up for any loans i've tried to apply for and in some cases keeping me from getting loans. I don't understand how a company will not show proof what the collection is and whom it belongs can continue to report this as valid. I'm currently considering my next moves but have reported it to multiple agencies and will send an email to the FTC and my local govt agency to report their unfair collection practices

In late XX/XX/XXXX, I cancelled our mobile phone service with XXXX XXXX. We paid our final bill to XXXX. We began using XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX CONTACT INFO JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX USA ( XXXX ) XXXX A couple months later, I received a bill from XXXX attempting to charge us for an early termination fee. $ XXXX I called XXXX and told them our contract had expired many, many years ago. They attempted to tell me that I signed a new contract later. Knowing I had not done so, I asked them to send me a copy of the signed contract. They did not. I have repeartedly requested proof that they confirm I signed a second contract with them. We were clients of XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. We closed our account XX/XX/XXXX. We transferred our service to XXXX XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX chased us for this false debt for 3 years. InXX/XX/XXXX they turned the account over to collections agency, Jefferson Capital. XXXX refuses to supply proof of their allegation and simply keep reaffirming the false re-age date, XX/XX/XXXX that coincides with when they turned the account over to Jefferson Capital System. Since then, they continue to tack on late charges and report the account as defaulted in the amount of {$280.00}. There are two issues. > We never owed this false charge because we never signed another contract ( which they refuse to supply proof of ). > They are reporting this late charge with the fake re-age date of XX/XX/XXXX.

I sent XXXX XXXX XXXX a debt validation request asking for complete documentation to verify that I owed the alleged debt and had a legal obligation to pay. Their response was a few pages of billing statements that contained no identifying information. My name, address, phone number, banking information, etc. was not listed on any of the documents. Furthermore, they failed to provide me with the agreement with the creditor that they are authorized to collect the alleged debt, the agreement bearing my signature stating that I have agreed to assume the debt, valid copies of the debt agreement, proof that the Statute of Limitations has not expired, proof that they are authorized to collect the alleged debt in my state, along with license numbers and Registered Agent. These are all things I am entitled to in conformance with my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I provided XXXX XXXX XXXX 30 days from receipt of the debt validation request to provide me with the requested information.The validation request very clearly states that non-compliance with my request would be construed as an absolute waiver of all claims to enforce the alleged debt against me and all instances related to this account must be immediately deleted and completely removed from my credit file. The original creditor in this matter is XXXX, which apparently is a phone company. I've provided documents from my phone provider, XXXX, with whom I've been a customer for several years.

I purchased a XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX Virginia. The vehicle was financed by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, ( XXXX ). In XXXX of XXXX XXXX went out of business. It is my understanding that the loan was transferred to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). All of my information with XXXX was current including my payments. I have attempted to contact XXXX by phone and e-mail with little success. I got no response to my email to XXXX. My phone calls were redirected and then disconnected. I was told that they did not have me in their system. My title still lists XXXX as the lien holder. My vehicle is listed as repossessed on my credit report. I still have my vehicle. I have not made payments to XXXX because it indicated that I did not have a loan with the company. They have not sent me any information and have not responded to my inquiries. I am an XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX with the United States XXXX and my credit report can impact my job. I wanted a new vehicle and could have traded in my XXXX if I could have cleared the loan. The confusion on the lien holder and the fact that the vehicle was listed as repossessed on my credit report meant that I was stuck with it. I was also concerned that someone would come and take the XXXX and I would have no way to get to work. I have purchased another vehicle. I could sell the XXXX if I had title or knew who I should pay to pay off the vehicle. Currently my ability to do anything financial is limited.

I've been disputing fraud accounts on my credit report since XX/XX/2021. I keep sending multiple sets of letters to the bureaus and the creditors so the excuse of " we didn't get it '' doesn't happen. Furthermore, each letter is certified mail with tracking and each letter shows signed and delivered and yet the bureaus are still not taking any actions. The accounts are not showing in dispute nor are they removed from my report. The accounts always show up with different name variations and different account number variations and yet the bureaus seem to ignore the trend and let these fraud accounts affect my credit score. I have requested the investigation to be initiated and also verifiable proof to be submitted should the account claim to be mine. Not only have I not received any mail showing the verifiable proofs needed to justify the accounts to be on my report, I haven't even received any letters at all stating the investigations have begun. Per the FCRA and federal law, the process is supposed to be 30 days. 100 days later, I'm still here shelling out money for certified mail with no end in sight and no results to show. This is my last option before I take this up with my lawyers and sue for full compensations and damages incurred. Finally, it seems that when these complaints are submitted, the bureaus are using the excuse that they " can't confirm my identity '' to get away with taking no actions on my credit report. Please investigate this as well.

RE : XXXX Dear Jefferson Capital : I am responding to your contact about a debt you are trying to collect. You contacted me by mail, on XX/XX/2023 and identified this alleged debt. Please supply the information below so that I have all information : The name and address of the creditor to whom the debt is currently owed, the account number used by that creditor, and the amount owed. If this debt started with a different creditor, provide the name and address of the original creditor, the account number used by that creditor, and the amount owed to that creditor at the time it was transferred.

In addition, tell me when the current creditor obtained the debt and who the current creditor obtained it from.

For example, can you provide a copy of the written agreement that created my original requirement to pay? If you are asking that I pay a debt that somebody else is or was required to pay, identify that person. Provide verification and documentation about why this is a debt that I must pay. The amount and age of the debt, including : A copy of the last billing statement sent to me by the original creditor. State the amount of the debt when you obtained it, and when that was.

I received letters from Jefferson Capital handling my delinquent account for XXXX XXXX XXXX. They sent me a letter stating I could settle my account with XXXX XXXX with a agreed settlement amount. Before I gave them any payment I asked could they send me a letter to show the agreement before I paid anything. They did, and said when account is paid as agreed they would update the credit agencies as account settled in full XXXX balance. I paid, and they sent me a letter stating account was settled closed as paid in full. I was waiting for this to be updated on my credit report, but it never was. I even tried to file a dispute with the credit agencies myself. Which was a failed attempt. I called Jefferson who told me they just handle the account for XXXX XXXX and they have to update with the credit agencies as the account being paid in full and settled. However, when I contacted XXXX XXXX they said Jefferson was not telling the truth that the account was sold to them, and they no longer have anything to do with this account, so to contact them back I did and Jefferson capital said call them back and tell them this is a special account we handle for them so it was n't one they bought. I kept getting thrown back and forth, and XXXX XXXX still shows on my credit as a charged off account, and Jefferson Capital basically ripped me off of money that they lied about handling this account so I could get my credit report updated to show what I agreed to.

On XX/XX/XXXX of this year aka yesterday, a civil servant came to my door bearing a summons to court for XX/XX/XXXX of this year. I saw no badge or uniform on this person and called to see if the court date was legitimate. It is. My sister acting in my stead with my permission and me being in the same room as I was in a bad mental place called to speak with the attorney 's office and was told to take out a loan. I, after getting a handle on myself, recalled the office trying to set up a payment plan. This will be difficult to do but I do not want to go to court. I was refused and told to get a loan or take my chances in court. I have neither the credit or collateral to do so. Today, XX/XX/XXXX, I called in order to have the office send m a copy of the debt validation letter which I do not have a copy of. XXXX XXXX, the person I have spoken to, would not listen to what I asked for specifically instead saying they would put in an order for the company to send me a secondary validation letter. She was very aggressive and I feel very intimidated trying to put my thoughts together and form answers. I do not like confrontation and I suffer from XXXX. I am very concerned aboout all this because I don't have the complete account number on either the court summons and I don't have a validation letter warning me about legal action. The only thing I have in my possession is this court summons. I don't even know how much the original debt was for.

After checking my credit report back in XXXX, I noticed items on my credit report that did not belong to me. I called the creditors and credit bureaus directly to dispute the inaccurate information and make them aware of what I noticed on my reports. This has caught me by surprise as I never received collection phone calls pertaining to any debt that was allegedly mine. Later, I was able to get this information updated and even placed a fraud alert on my credit report to be cautious. I have been in communication with the debt collection agency XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX advising them that the debt they're saying is mine DOES NOT BELONG TO ME. I have never had a contract with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - I am not liable for the collection of the debt from XXXX XXXX as this is not mine. I have been disputing this inaccurate information since XX/XX/XXXX and they have not removed this information from my credit file. This has hurt me severely in regards to obtaining credit. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX states that they have validated the debt, however, under the FCRA, they are required to provide a copy of the original creditor 's ( XXXX XXXX ) documentation on file to validate that the debt is mine ( which they have failed to do so ). XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has not provided me with a consumer contract with my signature on it validating this debt belongs to me. I have been disputing this for a while now and this has hindered my credit file tremendously.

Good Evening, I have been having an issue with the 3 credit bureaus reporting fraudulent information on my credit profile regarding Jefferson Capital Finance I have called and sent in several letters with no resolution. I have asked several times for proof of the account listed on my profile. I have needed specified information and these companies are not able to provide. They only respond with letters stating the account is verified. I have asked for supporting documents and also how was the method of verification completed. Seeked out signatures, payment history, billing statements, etc. I have called on XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX and XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX to all three bureaus XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX to XXXX. Certified letters has been sent to each bureaus as well XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and latest letter XX/XX/XXXX. I have received written response form XXXX and XXXX. The letters in response just states the accounts have been verified but no evidence of that. XXXX has no sent any responding letters. Only updated info online stating accounts accurate. I will attach screenshots of the account being listed showing inconsistent reporting and date opened date. Also different ACCOUNT numbers. Jefferson Finance has not responded to any request for validation information. Again seeking information such as signatures of loan, bank account info, addresses, payment history. Not just a letter stating accurate without showing proof of an account.

I am filing a complaint against Jefferson Capital Systems LLC for failing to validate a debt they claim I owe and for continuing to report this unverified debt to credit bureaus. Their reference numbers are redacted as below : XXXX XXXX On XX/XX/23, I formally disputed the alleged debt and requested permissible evidence to validate it, such as original contracts with my signature, fingerprints, or other permissible proof that the debt is owed to them. Copies of statements or bills from an alleged third party are not sufficient evidence. Jefferson Capital Systems LLC failed to provide any original documents or permissible evidence validating I owe this debt. Yet they continue to damage my credit standing by keeping these accounts on my record and reporting them to credit bureaus. This is a violation of multiple fair debt practices laws. Despite giving them ample time after my dispute, they have taken no action to validate the debts through legal means or to retract the unverified credit reporting. This false reporting has hurt my credit reputation and caused me humiliation. I demand Jefferson Capital Systems LLC to permanently delete these alleged debts from their records, retract any credit bureau reporting, and cease any further communications regarding these unvalidated accounts. Please assist me in ensuring they comply within 15 days of receiving this complaint, or further legal action will be necessary. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

XXXX charged off a huge cell phone bill that I have disputed for over 3 years to XXXX collection agencies. Initially, XXXX sent this disputed, unresolved balance to Jefferson Capital. Jefferson Capital accepted a proposed settlement in the amount of {$1000.00} because this is the amount I felt I owed for breaking the contract. Instantly, I paid {$500.00} and agreed to pay remainder {$500.00} over a 60 day period in which Jefferson Capital agreed. I called Jefferson Capital, LLC back and they informed me they no longer serviced the debt. I suddenly contacted XXXX recovery department but was either disconnected or hung up on several times when attempted to speak with someone for several weeks. Starting the last week on XXXX, 2016, I started receiving many calls from XXXX ( XXXX collection agency ) who said they represented XXXX. They said they had received several complaints from customers stating they already had payment arrangement with another XXXX collection agency but regardless, they could not work with an amount agreed upon by former, Jefferson Capital, LLC. They refused my proposal of remainder {$500.00} and persistent on a set amount. I again tried to reach out for help from XXXX. XXXX refuses to discuss this with me although they are reporting derogatory on my credit. This need to be cleared up XXXX. Why wo n't a creditor like XXXX discuss balance with me and they are reporting on my credit? XXXX has ruined my credit.

I disputed a collection with XXXX regarding XXXX XXXX that they submitted to the credit agencies recorded on XX/XX/XXXX without my knowledge and without any validation of debt. The details state the original creditor as XXXX and the amount is for {$380.00}. I contacted XXXX and they do not have a record of this under my name, I have not had XXXX service since XXXX. If this debt was valid which I believe to be untrue, the SOL would have expired in my State of Michigan. I have never received any communication from this creditor, it simply appeared on my credit report which they should have validated the debt with me. I wrote to them and asked them to remove this from my credit reports immediately and provide proof of said services. Furthermore, this credit agency is not licensed in the State of Michigan to perform collections in this state, so I believe they are illegally trying to collect a debt that not only is invalid, but they are not entitled to do so according to the Michigan State Attorney general office, which they have requested I file a complaint pending the results of your findings. I have been checking my credit reports and this is still appearing, therefore they are ignoring my request for removal and request of validation. I reached out to them also by email this week, I have proof of delivery and again received no response. If this was on one of their own credit reports, they would react in a timelier matter.

I called in regards to a debt. I received two letters and a filing from the court. I have never spoke to anyone from this company or received any other information from them. When speaking to XXXX he told me I had two debts with him and asked me what I could pay hm today to resolve the debt. I told him I had {$100.00} today and he said that wouldn't be enough to take care of the two debts. He could give me only {$120.00} for the one. I asked about the third debt I had. He told me it was in another department and he could transfer me after I paid these two. I told him I wanted to know all I owed to them He said he couldn't tell me that but unless I paid him today he wouldn't give me the other offer again. I said I needed the whole amount and that's when he started basically yelling at me that he needed my payment before he could do anything and talking over me and telling me there's nothing he can do for me if I didn't pay him now. I told him Idid n't appreciate the way he was talking to me and he continued to be rude and ignoring what I was telling him. All he was concerned about me paying him today. He didn't ever once offer me the payment options that are in the letter they sent me either. He only wanted me to pay the both today. I spoke to the legal dept and made arrangements with them on the larger amount but I had to get a manager on the phone to transfer me to them. He would only give me the number to call myself.

I was told that you could get into your XXXX/ XXXX XXXX and look at your report. I ended up finding about 4 accounts that had went to collection. At that point, I immediately paid all of them in full. I told them all what my hardship was and begged hem to take it off my reports after I paid them. They said it cold take up to 60 days. In the meantime, XXXX XXXX XXXX " XXXX original creditor " XXXX, had settled my whole Dept with he in the amount of {$300.00} '. I had asked them to remove it from my XXXX/XXXX XXXX/ and my XXXX report, and instead of showing paid in full, {$300.00} they re opened a revolving account saying that I actually owed them {$300.00}. I have tried numerous times to resolve these issues and they refuse to help which has really damaged my report all over again because all reporting agency 's re opened this account. I would like for this to be resolved immediately so I can at least apply for a personal loan to help my mother~ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has damaged my credit ...

XXXX XXXX XXXX incorrectly billed me for cell phone services and refused to correct the bill in XX/XX/XXXX. I refused to pay the ridiculous sum and they would not correct it because the account was already in collections because I was out of the country. In XX/XX/XXXX They then made the first attempts to collect the debt in XX/XX/XXXX and later sold the debt to debt collection agencies. The debt collection agency XXXX XXXX XXXX has RE-AGED the debt to show that it originated on XX/XX/XXXX nearly 4 years after the original date of collection. This is a bold violation of the F.C.R.A, similar companies have been fined {>= $1,000,000} for such violations. XXXX XXXX XXXX I have made every attempt to correct the debt with XXXX XXXX as well as the collection agencies that have held the debt they have expressly refused for 6 years!! Sense they have been unable to collect on the illegitimate debt they have decided to illegally re-age the debt in hopes of either passing it off to another agency, reporting it on their balance sheet or just maliciously harming my credit. I have disputed the debt on my credit report multiple times over a 6 year period, as well as notified the agencies in writing as well as by phone. The violation of my rights by these corporate thugs will no longer be ignored. I intend to exercise my rights to the fullest extent of the law. This is beyond disrespectful and is IN FACT CRIMINAL.

Approx XXXX I had an account with XXXX XXXX, which ended when the cell company refused to show me reasoning for the amount claimed owed approx. {$750.00}. I specifically ask for dates, reasoning for the extra charges, why we were being charged the extra fee 's, who authorized any additional plans, etc ... XXXX responded back stating the account had been turned over to a collections agency. We immediately contacted the collections agency requesting the same intel as with XXXX. The collector replied stating they were unable obtain the intel we were requesting, but demanding to be paid. So we refused to pay the amount of the debt we simply did NOT owe, but simply offered to pay what they could prove we owed ... I admit we owe them money, but only XXXX of what they claimed. Now, 5 years later, we have a different collector requesting to be paid, but each time, with each collector, the amount keeps growing ... Now, the bill has grown to {$1000.00} but offering if we pay in full, they 'll reduce it to {$530.00} and show on our credit report " AGAIN '' as a debt write-off ... Which I 'm sure they will sell that amount to a different collector ... How can our XXXX allow for the credit companies to keep selling and re-selling, and re-selling, and keep re-selling a debt and keep putting it on your credit report without having to show how or why you owe the amount claimed ...? Any help is greatly appreciated ... Many thanks,

This debt specifically ( and others ) have been racked up by my mother used without my consent. I have paid off prior debts to prior debt collection agencies to remove the damage she caused ( almost XXXX $ ) just to find out that I have an old debt from 6 years ago that I knew nothing about till recently in my name for almost XXXX XXXX I have been living with my fiance for the last 8 years or so. I would like to have this resolved as soon as possible because i am now being garnished 25 % of my check that I should not be garnished for. I have contacted the debt collection agency responsible for the garnishment and told them that they have they purchased my account illegally ( not of my acknowledgement or willingness because I did not know that it existed ) and told them that the account was fraudulent as well because I did not open it. They said it didn't matter. They had it in their possession for years and it needed to be taken care of. They did not send me a letter stating that I was going to be taken to court. Nor the garnishment. but I received a letter of AFTER the court date was settled and I was told I neglected to show up to a court date I did not know I had. I would like this resolved and the garnishment not be taken from me but from my mother who is responsible for the fraudulent account to be opened in my name. if you can get back with me as soon as possible that would be greatly appreciated.

According to my credit report, I have an account with JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS XXXX. I am very confused about how I ended up with not only an unauthorized soft inquiry, but also a debt of {$980.00} that I somehow owe to JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS even though I've never done business with them. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), Credit Bureaus are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts that they post on a credit report. Otherwise, anyone paying for their reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account. I do not, nor have I ever held an account with JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS. I have never signed any kind of physical agreement to pay this amount to JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS, nor has the debt been verified on my credit report. I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) that all three bureaus have on file of the accounts listed above because their failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if the bureaus ( along with collection agencies ) are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, they must remove the accounts listed above. I demand the following accounts be verified or removed from all three bureaus immediately.

In XX/XX/2014, XXXX claims that I called them and accepted financial responsibility for a specific phone line, the person who placed the call had personal information about me. XXXX began sending bills to an old address of mine. Not one single call was ever placed from the billed phone line. The account went into collections in XXXX of 2014, with the collections appearing on my credit report. Numerous calls to XXXX denying that I made that acceptance call with a request for proof of a contract with my signature on it or the phone number that the call was placed from ( surely XXXX has caller ID and is aware of who made the acceptance call ) went unanswered. XXXX 's fraud department has repeatedly insisted that it was me that made the call, although they refuse to disclose the phone number it was placed from, or the fact that an old address was given that I could prove with a change of address form from the US Postal Service, or to provide me with proof of the phone call ( all calls are recorded for legal reasons ). XXXX continues to harass me with this collection, erroneously extending the date of first collection, affecting my credit score and numerous financial transactions. I will NOT pay a debt to XXXX that I don't owe, and I'm sure if this has happened to me, it's happened to others, but I'm not in a position to hire an attorney to resolve this issue and XXXX, so far, has refused to discuss the issue with me.

I want XXXX account and collection removed from my credit reports. Ordered products from XXXX all the way back in XX/XX/XXXX, never received my order as it was sent to an incorrect address I no longer lived at in a different state. I dont know how they got that address as that's not what I put. When I saw it was being shipped to incorrect address I contacted right away to inform to change address as it hadnt actually shipped yet. They refused to change to correct address. After they shipped, I contacted fedex and they said the shipper could change the address with them for delivery. They would not. Was delivered to my old address in different state. I even contacted apt office at that address and they said my package was delivered there but they gave it back to fedex to return to sender since I didn't live there anymore. XXXX should have received package back but still kept my bill for order as is. They would not reship to me. Obviously I was not going to keep paying for an order and goods I never received. No one would help me with this and ended up getting bill sent to collections with collection account and closed/charged off XXXX account show on my credit report which is not fair again for goods I never even got. Collection company would not remove when I disputed. I have screenshots from XX/XX/XXXX of all the emails I sent to fingerhut informing about the address and trying to get them to do something.

I recently sent a certified letter to Jefferson Capital asking for validation of what appears to be 2 separate accounts listed on my credit profile. I asked them to provide me the following information in which that failed to do so. Please see what was requested in writing by them below- Please provide the following : Agreement with your client that grants you the authority to collect on this alleged debt. Agreement that bears the signature of the alleged debtor wherein he/she agreed to pay the creditor. Any insurance claims been made by any creditor regarding this account. Any Judgments obtained by any creditor regarding this account. Name and address of alleged creditor. Name on file of alleged debtor. Alleged account number. Address on file for alleged debtor. Amount of alleged debt. Date this alleged debt became payable. Date of original charge off or delinquency. Verification that this debt was assigned or sold to collector. Complete accounting of alleged debt. Commission for debt collector if collection efforts are successful. With that being said, I have yet to receive any of the following instead I started receiving harassing phone calls saying they are a Law Firm and it is an attempt to collect a debt. A gentleman in which I could not even make out due to his accent appeared to be of XXXX decent. I tried communicating with him and asked that he only communicate with me via US Mail.

The company XXXX XXXX XXXX contacted me regarding a debt I was not aware of. I advised the representative I need a validation of debt and wanted to debt the debt. The representative advised me I could not dispute the debt until after I received my validation of debt. I informed the representative this was not true and I had the right the dispute the debt as well as request a validation. The representative continue to argue with me and cut me off then eventually hung up the phone after asking for a manager. He advised me no manager was available and the call dropped. I called back to speak to manager XXXX XXXX, I asked him to listen the call since he seemed to not believe his representative told me false information. I asked him to listen to the call and call me back or I can call him back so we can resolve the situation. He told me it was none of my concern and refused to set a follow up to discuss the call. The manager told me he went ahead and put the account in dispute. I informed the manager if I didnt know my rights I wouldve thought the only way I can dispute the account is after I received my validation. He did not seem concerned about my situation. I asked him for information on upper management and Human Resources to submit a complaint, initially he refused but after pressing a while he eventually gave me a general number for the company. The representative also did not provide the mini-Miranda.

This company is attempting to collect a debt that is beyond the statute of limitations for a lawsuit, 4 years in California, and reporting the account beyond the 7 year limit for credit reporting. I have written to this collection agent asking for verification of this debt to establish these dates and also to establish that the agent actually either owns the debt or is acting on behalf of the original creditor. When I telephone the collection agent about this, an agent asks for payment and tacitly implies that that the debt is not beyond the statute of limitations and that it is empowered to take " further action '' on this zombie debt, when such is not the case. After disputing the information in the credit bureau, this collection agent 'verified ' the information that it was reporting as being correct. Yet when I subsequently telephoned the collection agent I was told that it had received my request stated above and that it was 'investigating ' but that it had no information on the account and had to retrieve information from the original creditor which 'takes up to 30 days '. I confirmed that my dispute was received by the collection agent PRIOR to the time the collection agent responded to the credit bureaus that the debt was reporting correctly ... a violation of the FCRA. Moreover, the collection agent failed to mark the debt as 'disputed ' in the credit bureau ... another violation of the FCRA .

Im not sure who to take this to anymore, but Ive disputed this account several times with both the original creditor and the credit reporting agencies accordingly and Ive attached everything to support my dispute. However, I continue to received a pre-template letter sent to me that its been verified and it REMAINS. How is it possible that this was verified if you continue to report incomplete, inconsistent, inaccurate, and unverifiable information on this account and a thorough and in-dept investigation. Ive disputed and I havent received anything as such, but it continues to be reported in violation of the consumer laws. Continues to report wrong balance, incorrect date of first delinquency, wrong date of last active, inconsistent payment status, high balance and actual balance is questionable, etc. I believe that section 609 of FCRA also allows me to ask for detail information about the account and how you indeed investigated and your detail process. Im extremely upset and shocked about the way this charge-off account is reporting on my credit report which continues to report with incomplete, inconsistent and unverifiable Info. How can you honestly say that you verified as it being accurate? This was NOT verified! I am requesting this investigation under the authorization of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 623. ( a ) ( 8 ) ability of consumer to dispute information directly with the furnisher.

As I was monitoring my credit, I simply saw an account pop up from a supposed debt collection agency called XXXX XXXX XXXX. It is a small amount ( {$140.00} ) and I had no idea where it was from or what it was for. They blatantly violated my rights as a consumer and a citizen in that I was never notified of the alleged debt in writing. Furthermore, this exact alleged account was removed from my credit report prior, as it is a totally false, and inaccurate bogus bill from an original utility company ( ( XXXX XXXX ). I was a long standing customer of theirs and NEVER even had a late payment. My credit report shows 100 % on time payment history for every bill Ive ever had. I am no going to have to strongly dispute this negative remark on my XXXX and XXXX credit reports. Lastly, this debt was never verified and I am directly filing a complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX. I do not even know who they are, as I have NEVER received correspondence from them prior. I did contact them directly once when I saw their name pop up on my credit report. I demanded that they remove this unverified amount from my credit report immediately, stating that they never gave me the 30 day legal time frame to dispute any debt. This was to no avail and they proceeded to threaten me. I am asking for the help of the CFPB to discipline and deal with their corrupt business practices. I am well versed in this area of law and know my rights

Debt collectors are not supposed to commit abuse, deceptive and unfair debt collection practices but your firm has done so. By coercing me to pay on an extension of credit. This is a violation of 18 USC 894. First thing, You do not have any lawful right to be in possession of my identifying information. Secondly, I didn't give you consent to furnish this alleged debt, that is violation of 15 USC 1692d ( 4 ). Coercing myself to pay you an alleged debt by ruining my financial reputation is a violation of 18 USC 894. Now because you all benefit at my expense, the debt collector, original creditor, and consumer reporting agencies are engaging in racketeering activity 18 USC 892 ( b ) ( 1 ) -Companies have no right to attempt to collect the alleged debt by way of judicial processes. Again debt collections can't lawfully : Possess by identifying information, Contact me about an alleged debt, ruin my credit, or SUE me for nonpayment of a debt. Please understand Debt Collector or your firm have no lawful standing. 15 U.S. Code1692i ( b ) Trying to punish me for a nonpayment of a debt by furnishing it to the CRAs is a violation of 18 usc 894 and carries a criminal penalty of 20 years. The last thing Jefferson Capital System needs to understand this is also aggravated identity theft 18 USC 1028A I'm requesting for this alleged debt entry to be removed and deleted ASAP from all three reporting CRAs.

RE : State, ex Rel. Attorney General as Notice of Rescission of Signature for Cease and Desist caused by Predatory Debt Collection Operation, I am writing to shed light on a company that I feel is operating unfairly. I see this as unfair and it appears deceptive. I feel I was targeted for unauthorized use of my signature caused by making false and misleading representations due to engaging in various abusive and unfair practices. I am able to fight this but what about the elderly and the infirm who depend on these products or services and are taken advantage of by this type of financing for alleged debts. I do think this is an unfair practice for all consumers. This builds distrust. I will never do business with this dishonorable company again as I feel they failed to provide validation of debts, proof for legally binding signature as a valid contract, and lack of due process as adequate notification of contract changes. This pattern of dishonest practice acts, although maybe legal, is not fair. Please take a look at this companys practices as adverse actions. Please feel free to forward and share this deprivation of rights complaint with the Office of the Comptroller of Currency for full-scale and complete intensive investigations. I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on todays date. /s/ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I am disputing the validity of this alleged debt. I have not now nor have I ever been in contract with JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYST. Pursuant to 15 USC 1692g - validation of debts, this company is in violation of federal law. They are actively furnishing an account to the Credit Reporting agencies under the guise of it belonging to me as a " collection account ''. As a consumer, I have not now or ever extended my credit to them, they have not now or ever loaned me money. I received a notification from both XXXX and XXXX showing the aforementioned as reporting this information with a " balance '' of : {$1300.00}. I am asking JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYST to provide an original contract with my signature, offer and acceptance. Copies will not suffice. I would also like to see the assignment of debt. I would also like this company to show they are registered in my state to even attempt to do business and collect on this alleged debt. This company is also in violation of 15 USC 1692e by making false and misleading representations. I also demand JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYST to cease and desist from furnishing anything to any of the credit reporting agencies on my behalf as I also have not now or ever given them permissible purpose to do so. Any continuance or disregard to this notice will be deemed as direct violation of federal law as I am a Federally protected consumer and will also file suit for defamation of character.

This morning on XX/XX/2020 I received an update on my credit report of a new derogatory remark from a company Jefferson Capital Systems LLC whom I have never heard of. They had opened an account on XX/XX/XXXX without my knowledge stating they had bought debt from XXXX XXXX in my name to the tune of {$100.00}. I have never been contacted via mail, phone, or email by Jefferson Capital Systems LLC to make me aware that I in fact owed them any amount of money. Instead they put my account in to collections putting a negative remark on my credit report, and driving down my credit score. If I am correct, this goes against the Fair Debt Collection practices act subsection 808, as well as subsection 809 showing that they have to make contact with me about debt owed to them. I have contacted Jefferson Capital Systems LLC today XX/XX/2020 to speak to them about why my account with them is in collections on my credit report. They repeatedly said that what they did is within their company guidelines, and completely ignored what I had to say when I brought up the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I don't see any way that shows what they did as being legal, how was I supposed to know I owed Jefferson Capital Systems LLC money if they never contacted me saying so? What they said is that if I pay the debt, the remark will be removed, however I truly believe what they did is technically against the law.

Dear Whom May Concern, My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX I had a XXXX account when I turned XXXX years old back in XX/XX/XXXX I open the account in XXXX. My phone broke XXXX XXXX refused to fix it or help me so I decided to break the contract and pay the early termination fees in XX/XX/XXXX. The guy in the XXXX XXXX XXXX store said I was good to go. This was not the case because I received my first collection notice from XXXX XX/XX/XXXX and I been disputing the collections activity from XXXX for years and I 'm tired of them hurting my credit for they claim I still have a {$980.00} balance which I feel is wrong. The reason why I 'm disputing this debt because XXXX XXXX sold the account to Jefferson Capital Systems back in XX/XX/XXXX I never received anything from this " debt buyer ''. I also contacted an attorney to see about statue of limitations of debt and she shared with me the California law says, '' California has a statute of limitations of four years for all debts except those made with oral contracts. For oral contracts, the statute of limitations is two years. This means that for unsecured common debts like credit card debt, lenders can not attempt to collect debts that are more than four years past due. " This account is more than 4 years past due and also XXXX XXXX reports on the credit report that is a new account which is not they have lied to the credit reports including XXXX, XXXX and XXXX.

Started a family plan with myself and my mother. She was diagnosed with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX In XX/XX/2013. I spoke with XXXX on many many occasions notifying them of our situation. The monthly statement clearly indicated there was zero use from XX/XX/2013 until her sudden and untimely death on XX/XX/2013. Documents show I continued to pay In order to keep my phone connected. After all, I just lost my mother who was only XXXX. The reps were plain rude, insensitive and of no help. They refused to allow me to end our plan. I was told verbatim, Do you know how many people fake their parents dying to get out of a plan? Meanwhile Im sobbing and said check her usage. She has been hospitalized. I had her obituary for proof. I even have her death certificate. And still, XXXX could care less. So much for customer service. They stole from us. I have statements and emails verifying payments were made up until they refused to change our plan. One of their customers was now deceased and it was my word against theirs even though I had proof. And what a shame!! I wonder how many other customers they treat like this? Also, I dont see any correct dates for this account on my report. I tried calling the debt buyer in hopes of resolving this matter recently at which time I was conveniently dropped from the call @ XXXX and again when I called back and spoke to a different rep named XXXX XXXX XXXX last month.

I had an auto loan a very ling time ago with XXXX XXXX XXXX. The loan went into default & was charged off. It remained on my credit report for 7 years & was then deleted. There was never a collection agency that picked this debt up. Just recently on XX/XX/21, this shows up on my credit report as delinquent & in collections by XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had never heard from these fokks before. I called them & they explained they purchased the debt from XXXX. I advised this was charged off & was already deleted from credit report. They refuse to delete & threatened legal action. I then contacted XXXX. They confirmed they never sold this account to this company. I looked up reviews for XXXX XXXX & I see where they have done this to several others. They dig up old accounts & try to collect on them. They have reported to all 3 credit bureuas and my scores have dropped tremendously. I do not understand how a debt that was deleted from my credit report because it had already been on there 7 years can be added back. Also, I have never ever heard from these people. Seems like a company scheming to get money. I can search for my old credit reports that show the original account. This company needs to show where they purchased this account, show proof they communicated with me, & also show proof of the original creditor. They will not have this info. I need this item rwmoved from my credit report immediately!

I paid a charged off account that I had with XXXX in the amount of {$740.00}. The first payment was made XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$50.00} and the second was made on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$690.00}. Towards the end of XXXX I received a notice that a new collections account was reported on my credit reports from Jefferson Capital. Jefferson Capital shows that I owe {$740.00}, since apparently they purchased the account from XXXX. This is not accurate as I paid XXXX in XXXX. XXXX sent me an email after an inquiry from me telling me that they would forward the payment in XXXX. I contacted them today, XX/XX/XXXX, and now XXXX is telling me that the payments are pending ( which is not true as I have proof that they posted from my bank accounts ). Makes no sense to be pending since they were made over a month ago. They say somehow Jefferson Capital should have access to that ( which makes no sense since I paid it on XXXX 's website ). Jefferson Capital says they should have received the payments since they were paid so long ago. I don't know who is in the right and in the wrong but I know that my account has been paid and it's now being reported incorrectly on my credit report as a new Jefferson Capital collections account with a balance even though it was paid before Jefferson ever showed up on my credit report. This is not accurate and needs to be resolved by both companies.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX collected a debt via garnishment from my bank account on XX/XX/20 in the amount of {$1300.00}. This debt was originally for a XXXX energy debt, and the garnishment from my bank account satisfied this debt. However, the collection agency run by Ms. XXXX also had a garnishment placed against my state tax return, which they failed to release after the debt had been satisfied on XX/XX/20. As of the writing of this today on XX/XX/20, the state tax return garnishment has still not been released, therefore {$900.00} owed to me by the state has been held up wrongly because of the inaction of this collector to release the garnishment. I have contacted the office on several occasions, most recently on XX/XX/20 at which time it was verified that the debt was indeed satisfied but that they " somehow failed to '' release the tax garnishment. However, I contacted the state of Michigan treasury today, and they still have not received the garnishment release. I would like action taken against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX for causing harm to myself and my family by failing to release this garnishment and thus preventing my state tax return from being rightfully sent to me. This has caused my family finacial harm during this very difficult season. We need this money and it should have come 6 months ago. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX should be held to account for this egregious error.

They added collection to my credit reports without my knowledge! I checked & can't verify their registration in Michigan BOTH are FDCPA violations! Jefferson Capital put collection on my credit reports without my knowledge and in doing so, this violated the FDCPA Collection Practice by placing a collection account on my credit report without sending a letter to me. Plus there is NO verification from the MI Secretary of State that they are registered in Louisiana which is also against the FDCPA! I request that Jefferson Capitol verify the following information. 1. Full original Account Number 2. Date original Account was opened 3. Any written agreements between myself and the original creditor stating this debt is owed 4. Full account summary and itemized calculation of alleged debt 5. Date of the first delinquency 6. Dates and times of any phone calls made and to what number in attempt to contact me concerning the alleged debt before it was reported to an agency, and so proving that these calls were made in the times governed by FDCPA law. If Jefferson Capital Systems is unable to provide the above identifying account information, this account must be deleted from all CRAs. Jefferson Capital Systems also failed to follow FDCPA by not sending a letter giving the consumer time to dispute or validate the alleged debt within the allowed 30-day time frame that is allowed by law.

I checked my credit reports for accuracy as I am in the process of being pre-qualified for my very first mortgage through the First Time Homeowners Buyers program, I saw a debt reported by Jefferson Capital Systems for a vehicle that was repossessed in 2020. The trade line is demanding I pay {$11000.00} owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX. Since I was laid off during COVID, the layoff caused me undue hardship and I was unable to meet the monthly minimum. I have finally found employment ( $ XXXX at a XXXX ) and have been able to save, but I can not possibly repay this debt in full as I am a single mother with XXXX kids and only one income coming in monthly. I am writing to ask if you would be willing to accept {$2000.00} as payment in full since the car was sold shortly after being repossessed ( XXXX check shows it has a new owner ). I saved up money, so if you could accept {$2000.00}, I could send you a cashier 's check [ or money order ] or make a payment via phone as soon as I receive notice that you will accept my offer. If you agree to these terms, please mail a signed and dated letter to the address attached to this complaint or attach it to the complaint. After receiving it, I will send you a payment of {$2000.00}, which will constitute payment in full, trade line deleted, and release me from all further collection efforts by both the original creditor and your collection agency.

To Whom It May Concern, The reason for my dispute is JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS XXXX was required to notify me no later than 30 days after furnishing the negative information to credit bureau reports, in writing ... under such section 623, subsection ( 7 ) ( A ).

I contacted Jefferson Capital Systems concerning a collection on my credit report about a bill from XXXX, I was told the debt was in default in XXXX of XXXX, I asked for verification of the debt in writing and the operator stated that it was already sent out. I stated I had not received it and that I needed verification and a proof of date, he stated that he already told me when the debt started and refused to give me anything in writing. I filed a dispute with XXXX that afternoon and the next morning was told the debt was verified and it began in XXXX of XXXX. I contacted XXXX and explained I had not done business with XXXX since XXXX of XXXX and that I wanted to know what verification they turned in because it would be fraudulent, I was told there was no formal verification just Jefferson stating that I owed the debt. I question how that was verification when anyone could state I owed a debt, I also explained Jefferson 's refusal to verify the debt to me. I was then advised to file a complaint CFPB and was told they would reopen the investigation and inquire about the validity of the information provided to them. Jefferson still has not verified the debt to me or in my opinion formally to XXXX only verbally stating that the dates were accurate, despite giving two different dates of XX/XX/XXXX to myself and XXXX of XXXX to XXXX there by adding two more years to the debt.

JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS repeatedly continues to re-age a debt that have been disputed for years. When it is removed from XXXX credit reporting agency it is placed on another. This company have never every sent any documentation to me to alert of a debt prior to posting. I have repeatedly told the credit bureaus that this company never provided written documentation prior to reporting this debt. This is a form of harassment and each and every time this company, JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS list this debt it cause my credit score to drop, sometime XXXX plus points. This company is attempting to completely ruin my life and my credit and they have no right to do so. I have never received any written documentation from this company about this debt. Nor do they notify in writing the many times they have placed the deb on all three credit bureaus. This is outright harassment to just continue to place the debt on credit reports because you can with no sense of or understanding you are causing the individual 's credit to plummet each time. It gets removed from one account and moved to another. I believed since XXXX 2015, this account has been place on all XXXX credit bureaus and some more than once after being removed. Therefore if the account has been removed time and time again it has to be a case that needs someone to look into it and understand why this is happening.

I have never had an account with this company and I have had my information stolen and compromised in the past on the XXXX XXXX and had my wallet also stolen in the past with credit cards and my id.

Neither of these company 's will respond to my messages to remove this off of my account. I have disputed this many times to get nothing done. This company can not hold me to this bill when this is not mine. This needs to be removed from my Credit Report. I am also contacting the XXXX and the State of Florida Attorney Generals Office.

Jefferson Capital Systems the collecter name is XXXX XXXX. He called my wife today and said we were 3 months behind. We set automatic payments with this same person months ago and payments were being taken out monthly. It was set for the XXXX every month XX/XX/XXXX payment was taken out was set for the XXXX. He said we stopped the payments and need to call the bank and said they will take her to court and garnish her pay. We call the bank and we did not stop the payments there company never took payments out. The bank said there was no post from them and we had funds every time. I called back and talked to them. This person messed up the payment arrangements and again messed it up today and put the next auto payment for XX/XX/2022 years from now. He did not leave any notes in the account from his call today so it took another person and a supervisor to fix this issue and to remove is out of the delecincy because of his mess up and he threatened us by saying they were going to take us court and garnish our wages. I got it fixed with the other people he put our account back up to XXXX and we paid XXXX on this account. Becuase he messed it up they corrected it to now XXXX. My wife is XXXX and this almost gave her a XXXX XXXX do to her illness. I want to know what I can do to get this justified for the threat he made and the company completely messing up our account.

I asked for them to please ask the credit company Jefferson Capital Systems who is reporting I owe {$1200.00} for XXXX. This is not my debt, I have never opened a account with XXXX for { {$270.00} I have asked XXXX to request proof of this debt as the law states. There has been no proof of what Government Issued ID was used to open this debt. What city and state was this debt opened. This company Jefferson capital systems just writes that the debt is valid and XXXX just keeps it on my debt. Under section 611 of FCRA they have to actually do some investigation work and verify this debt is real and my debt. Its caused problems with my life. Also how would XXXX let someone have a {$1200.00} phone bill!!! phone bills on average are $ XXXX is a fraud debt and needs to be removed immediately. XXXX is just using a computer generated system to get a response from Jefferson capital and all they have to do is say " yes '' the debt is valid and XXXX reports this!! XXXX and Jefferson capital should be responsible for the problems this has caused me and my family and it shouldnt be up to the consumer to seek legal action when XXXX isnt following the law. They should not be allowed to control a debt score if they dont follow the law.

On XX/XX/18, I went to a XXXX store at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, in XXXX XXXX, FL. I was there to change my phone plan as they had advertised for months prior they would be covering any carryover costs from another service below {$650.00}. I was transferring from XXXX and realized XXXX would be more cost-effective and wouldn't have service issues in the city. After switching from the same number and using my phone for a few months, on XX/XX/18 a notice came in the mail from a XXXX XXXX XXXX inquiring about a debt in the amount of {$280.00}. I saw that this was due to a late XXXX bill so I just left it be. Referring to settlements, I was semi-concerned this could be fraud. I've never possessed any debt. I also knew that I was well within the coverage provided by XXXX 's promotion that they had ongoing when I acquired my new phone. I was not at all concerned nor considering the letter legitimate. Two months ago, I was looking over my credit score and was shown I held a derogatory mark on my credit from XXXX. This is now being referred to collections and there's no trail in which I am the at fault party. I attained audio from a XXXX service representative in which she has claimed that XXXX covered this negligent balance. Obviously she is mistaken ( at my expense ) and rightfully, they are the accountable party if they claim it was covered and it was not.

A few years ago I filed a complaint with FCC and fraudulent billing from XXXX XXXX. They were caught XXXX billing my account more then XXXX times. XXXX XXXX closed my account and issued me a refund and refunded all deposits. A XXXX later I started to receive bills from other companies over a {$99.00} charge. This charge was not accurate. I should never have been charged additional months when the account was closed and I was with another company. In addition, if I owned them money, why would n't they deduct the charges from the XXXX dollars that they over billed for. I filed complaints and I thought the issue was resolved, until 3 weeks ago. I found the " charge-off '' from XXXX XXXX on my credit report. Today, I was surprised by a letter from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC stating they are taking over my XXXX XXXX account. There is XXXX reference to the amount on the account numbered : XXXX. 1. I do not owe XXXX XXXX any money because my account was settled in full and I was issued a reimbursement for their XXXX billing. 2. If this bill has already been listed as a " charge-off '' how can another company take ownership over the account? 3. I have already had my credit destroyed because I had the mistake of working with XXXX XXXX. They retaliated against me because I filed several complaints. XXXX XXXX has violeted my Fair Credit Report Act protection.

The philosophy of XXXX XXXX and XXXX seem to be that they allege you owe a debt and the consumer just deals with it or pays debts that are not theirs in order to finally have them removed from a XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is a direct violation of Federal Law 15 U.S.C. 1681. I also disputed the presence of Jefferson Capital Systems being listed on my credit reporting file, I have not received documentation from either XXXX or Jefferson Capital Systems as requested. I have requested signed documentation authorizing the original account be opened in my name and social security number. No documentation was ever provided by either company. I requested this in order to have the signature compared to years of my signatures to assist in prevention of identity theft and to ensure 100 % accuracy of my credit reporting file. I have attached a copy of my dispute letters and every tactic they have used to prevent correcting the bad information, up to and including their claim in one letter that they could not even locate my credit file, as you can see in my dispute letters, they were given their own information to identify my credit file. How can a credit reporting agency be trusted to ensure accuracy of the information they are reporting, when they can not even locate a consumer file with their own information and a copy of their own report included with each dispute?

On XX/XX/2019, Jefferson capital Systems, XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX XXXX MN XXXX opened accounts in my name and immediately reported these accounts as unpaid debt. This was done on both my XXXX and XXXX credit reports. This debt was removed from my credit twice in the last year and several times over the last few years. It stemmed from a cell phone that I returned to XXXX during my 14 day trial over 14 years ago. I didn't keep their service as it sucked and returned the phone to them before my 14 day trial was up. These companies keep adding this old debt to my credit files, the debt is well beyond the 7 years allowed by the Fair Credit Reporting Agency. Neither XXXX or XXXX are verifying the information before they add this back to my credit. It has been REPEATEDLY REMOVED by both of these credit bureaus. I would like you to investigate Jefferson Capital Systems, as this is an unfair practice. 1 ) It is an illegitimate debt, due to the actions of XXXX XXXX, which I am assuming was the retail agent afraid about losing his commission. 2 ) I was never notified of this debt, I received a credit monitoring action after they already attacked my credit reports. 3 ) It has been removed repeatedly over the last few years. I am to the point I am about to file a class lawsuit on these people. I am XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX as an XXXX XXXX of the XXXX XXXX

After I asked to be put on the do not call list the calls stopped, I was getting at least 15 to 20 calls a day. Now this is now XX/XX/XXXX and they refuse to remove it from my credit report, I have informed them that once this account was sold it was no longer my account. They still refuse to remove it from my credit report as a collection debt. And it is hurting my credit score. I have disputed it over 5 times with the 3 major credit reporting agency 's it's still there, Then I contacted the 3 credit agency 's and disputed it yet again. They refuse to remove it from my report 's. Even after I told them they were violation of the Fair credit reporting act. XXXX XXXX XXXX I WHOM I CONTACTED VIA THE DISPUTE ON THE XXXX XXXX SITE.

I am not saying they are reporting right or wrong. I am just saying that I am not 100 percent sure if they are. I also read something called the Fair Credit Reporting Act where it said by law, I had the right to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. Some of the people reporting things on me, I have never heard of which made me write to you all. Are you familiar with something called 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1681i ( a ) ( Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. )? I heard that if you cant provide proof, these accounts must be deleted. Well, I want these accounts deleted if they are not 100 percent right and correct. So, could you please check on these and get back to me? I saw on a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX where this lawyer said you have 30 days to complete this investigation. Please investigate the following accounts and remove them if anything is missing or not correct on them.

A negative item showed up on my credit report Account # XXXX from Jefferson Capital System alleging I owed them a debt in amount {$2100.00}. On the XXXX of XX/XX/2023, I requested a debt validation letter from Jefferson Capital on a negative item on my credit report. The so-called verification letter I received back from Jefferson Capital Systems lacks content and did not provide the following which I requested : A copy of the agreement authorizing Jefferson capital to collect debt on behalf of the original creditor. FULL detailed accounting history on the account and the calculations on how they reached the amount owe. Provide verification on any judgments connected to this account. Provide your license to collect in my state and your registered agent name with their address. Proof that the Statue of Limitations has not expired in my state for this account. Provide the date of the last payment on this account. Jefferson Capital has violated my rights under 15USC 1692 Sec.809 ( b ). and did not show any lawful authority to collect on the alleged debt claim. 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

There is a derogatory reference on my credit report from Jefferson Capital System ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX at XXXX ). Approximately, three months ago, I disputed this adverse notice claiming I owed {$200.00} to XXXX XXXX. I contacted XXXX XXXX on the matter, and all they could tell me is that they sold the collection to Jefferson. I called Jefferson and they can not identify any outstanding claim. This is because I contested it on my credit report, and it was removed by the credit reporting agency, but now it is showing up again. I DO NOT OWE THIS MONEY. No one can tell me what this is for. I have had a XXXX XXXX account for over 10 years. I continue to pay and be in good standing, but this keeps showing up and no one can give me any information as to why it is a collection account. According to a XXXX Report, this was placed in collection on XXXX/XXXX/2015. I did n't owe this at this point. It was later updated on XX/XX/XXXX and still showing as a derogatory notice. This is adversely affecting my credit and if someone can not provide information to me about this, it should not be allowed to be reported. when you call XXXX, an automated notice references that the account was sold. What company would sell an outstanding account if it is only placed in collection on XXXX/XXXX/2015. This is an error and it needs to be removed immediately.

Since XX/XX/XXXX of this year a collection company, XXXX XXXX XXXX, has been reporting an account to my consumer credit file in XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. The article is a debt in my name for the amount of {$660.00} which I don't recognize as mine. Furthermore I have never used the services of the company who originally contracted them. Under the FCRA laws, I submit a dispute with each credit bureau twice, both times asking for the documented proof and correction of the item on file. My simple request is being ignored and no such documentation, be it itemized charge lists, original contract, signed paperwork, debits, affidavit or other document has been provided to me. This company is damaging my economy to the point that I tried to obtain a mortgage and the rates where not the best because that erroneous and fraudulent debt on my credit report. I am contacting the CFPB with this complaint because not only is the debt illegally reported, but not one principal at XXXX will help me as is required under the law. I have gone on the record with the top three bureau 's and have extensivley sought a resolution to this issue. I am asking the CFPB to mediate and force servicer to comply with an actual investigation, provide documentation from where they got this account and fix a problem which is not mine, yet which through negligence, is besmirching my standing.

Hello, My name is XXXX XXXX. This debt collector- Jefferson Capital Systems bought my debt collection from XXXX XXXX back in XXXX. I was XXXX XXXX XXXX. Every so often when I check my credit report, I can see that XXXX keeps updating the open date to a more recent date. Ive tried multiple times directly disputing it, and it does not work. This account has been sitting on my collections credit report for XXXX YEARS. XXXX will officially be 10 years. I called and spoke to collections with XXXX XXXX on XXXX, XXXX and they said the account was too old to find any information about the account even after I gave them the phone number my address and my ss #. I just recently spoke to XXXX XXXX collections again in XX/XX/XXXX to see if I could get an actually copy of the date this account was open and they said it was too old and in their eyes acts like it doesnt exist I refuse to call XXXX because I know they will re-open the account and itll stay another 10 years. I just recently started getting countless calls from XXXX attempting to collect a debt. Randomly. Or is it? This account of mine has been opened 10 years ago and was also brought to collections, 9 years ago. This is unfair and seems illegal after speaking with lawyers. The attorney I spoke to told me to file a complaint thru here before we pursue legal action against them, so this is it.

'' I also told them that this was " This is NOT a request for verification or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you.

I am a victim of identity theft and I recently had my purse stolen with all of my personal information. Jefferson Capitol System placed a debt collection against my credit report. I have no idea who they are and NEVER received any correspondence from them via mail. Because of my identity being stolen in the past and now possibly again with all of my personal information stolen ( XXXX police report made ) I monitor my credit very closely. I called XXXX they provided on website. When I enter my social security # ( hesitantly and it's confirmed Jefferson Capitol System ) they state they do not have a file on their system matching my social security number. Of course they won't because this is being reported fraudulently.This is not my debt. I want this to be investigated. I do not have any debt. All my creditors have been paid off. I disputed this with XXXX and later got a response of " meets FCRA requirements ''. What does that mean? This is not my debt. I want the creditor to provide my wet signature in a contract between me and this Collection Agency. So again, I'm simply asking for you to FOLLOW Fair Debt Collection practices. Show me the written verification of debt and show me my wet signature. I'm not sure if it's JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS , LLC or just Jefferson Capitol System~ that's how it's being reported on my credit report.

I am filing a complaint about XXXX XXXX XXXX. They have not provided me with documentations showing and proving they are in Fact the owner of an account they have listed on my credit report and with negative or derogatory status. The validation letter I sent reads as such : I checked a copy of my credit report and realized that there was a collection reported from your agency, which I was not notified about. I do not reject to provide with the debt amount. However, this is a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ), that your claim is disputed and a validation is demanded. This is asking for proof regarding the debt that I owe and verifying it. I am requesting you to stop all collection activities including reporting this information on my credit report. I am sure that you are aware of the fact that non-compliance with this request may end up in legal obligations. Please dispatch copies of the following with your reply : 1.

Jefferson Capital put collection on my credit reports without my knowledge and in doing so, this violated the FDCPA Collection Practice by placing a collection account on my credit report without sending a letter to me. Please be advised this is not a refusal to pay a debt, but a notice pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) that your claim is disputed and validation is requested. Jefferson Capital Systems also failed to follow FDCPA by not sending a letter giving the consumer time to dispute or validate the alleged debt within the allowed 30-day time frame that is allowed by law. I have no knowledge of this account. I request that you please verify the following information to assist identifying whether this debt is valid : 1. Full original account number 2. Date original account opened 3. Any written agreement ( s ) between myself and the original creditor stating I agreed to pay alleged debt 4. Consumer address at which original account was opened 5. Date of first delinquency 6. Itemized calculation of alleged debt If Jefferson Capital Systems is unable to provide the above identifying account information I will have no recourse but to presume the debt invalid and/or fraudulent, request account deletion from all credit reporting agencies, and request that the account not be sold or transferred.

Jefferson Capital is constantly calling me and sending me Letters about this Debt. Jefferson Capital Systems llc. JCS Reference # XXXX Debt Description : XXXX XXXX Amount of Debt:XXXX I have over the Phone as well as in Writing Told Jefferson Capital that this is not my Debt. I have repeatedly told them they need to Verify this Debt. They need to send me Documentation I personally Signed with Copies of my ID where I opened this account. I have told them this is the law under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. However they never respond other than to keep calling and keep sending me Letters. So I told them please do not contact me about the Matter anymore as I am not going to pay it. As they are able to show any Proof that this account is mine.. Still no Response on the matter just more Phone calls and more letters. I think they think they can Bully People into Paying these False claims they have. Also this is making it really hard being on my Credit report. It is causing me undue XXXX by keeping my Credit Score Lower than it should be. So What I am asking is that since they have Failed after Numerous attempts requested to show me the Proof of the account. As well they have Failed to Stop Contacting me as I requested. Which is also FCRA Rules. They need to Remove this Close and Remove this account from my Credit Report Immediately.

I am the victim of identity theft. I discovered this 4 years ago when I was purchasing a new home. I have reached out to all 3 bureaus and sent all 3 bureaus a copy of all my identifying information along with a police report. I have had debt collectors attempt to come after me for debt owed to them under fraudulent premise. I am the sole owner of the social security number ending in XXXX. I have never went by any other name or alias. Jefferson Capital Systems flagged my credit reports for a debt that was taken out using my social security number, my 1st name " XXXX '', but a different last name. My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX. The debt owed was in a name belonging to " XXXX XXXX '' ( a name I never went by ) I reached out to Jefferson Capital Systems and alerted them of this error. I was told by one of their reps that this case was given to " XXXX '' another collection agency. I reached out to XXXX and made them aware of the identity theft as well as the name issue. I was told by the XXXX rep that they were sending this case back to Jefferson Capital systems. I called Jefferson Capital Systems back and was told I had o wait until they have the case back. I asked why did I have to wait to address a fraudulent account. I waited a few days and called them back again. Also, I have never had an account with the original debtor " XXXX XXXX ''

I was informed by XXXX and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX of a change to my credit file and because I have an account with them I logged in and was made aware that I have an outstanding debt with XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1800.00}. This account was opened in XXXX of XXXX. I have never had XXXX XXXX and contacted the debt collection company that this debt is owned by, XXXX XXXX XXXX yesterday XX/XX/XXXX to let them know this account is not mine and that it is fraud, and that I would like it immediately removed from my credit report. They informed me I would receive a fraud package in the mail in 2-3 weeks and that I would need to contact the credit reporting agency to let them know it is fraudulent because they do not deal with this type of thing. I have since tried to dispute this account on my credit report 2 times and XXXX continues to claim this debt is mine, when it is not. This account previously showed up on my credit report with another collection agency named XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX and I disputed it because it was not my account and it was removed from my credit report. I am not sure why this keeps popping back up on my credit report, but it is not mine. I have also disputed this with XXXX, but have yet to hear back. Please resolve this issue because it is negatively impacting my credit score and should NOT be on my report.

Jefferson Capital Systems LLC owned a account from XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1600.00}. This account is 8 years old. I disputed this account not once but twice the last time being in mid XXXX of XXXX, I went to call them & they said they could not talk to me as this account was being serviced by XXXX XXXX on behalf of Jefferson Capital Systems. XXXX still owned the account though. I asked for the verified info from XXXX they said they would send it & they also told me I could settle for {$1000.00}. Today on XX/XX/2022 I called XXXX & they informed me that the account had been sent back to them but they owned the account the entire time & that XXXX could only process payments & not send out verified information. The payment option that XXXX gave me was different than the XXXX option that I got back in XXXX. So in one week I was told to call a different ( XXXX ) company, got a payment option from that company, sent back to the original company ( XXXX ), asked for the original contract with XXXX with my signature on it & all the documents XXXX had with my name on it. After going back & forth & being transferred 4 times I got a supervisor on the phone. His name was XXXX with Jefferson Capital Systems ID # XXXX. He informed me the account would be removed in full. I have a witness to this phone conversation & was on a recorded line.

In XXXX of XXXX I became an employee of XXXX XXXX XXXX and switch my account over from XXXX XXXX. I received {$750.00} in XXXX XXXX to pay off the remaining balance from XXXX which was I was told was {$580.00} and which I paid and was told I was ready to go. After 2 months I get a bill from XXXX saying that I owed them {$120.00}. I called and after multiple hours of speaking with several reps that I did not owe this and they would take the charges off my account. Yesterday XX/XX/XXXX I got a notice that my credit score has gone down XXXX points due to a derogatory claim on my account of XXXX from XXXX that I am now expected to pay. After talking to Jefferson Capital Systems this morning they have put in that I am disputing I was told the only way to get it off my credit was to get proof from XXXX of a conversation that took place over 4 years ago and on the phone. When I call XXXX to get in contact with someone it refers me back to Jefferson Capital stating they do not have access to any information on my account. I have worked incredibly hard over the last decade to build my credit and am infuriated to see it impacted by a bogus charge like this. There was more than enough left on those cards and if they would have asked me to pay that at the time of switching I would've gladly paid what I owed. Is there anyone who can help me?

Jefferson Capital Systems LLC successfully manage to file and win a judgment against me without me knowing anything about their claim. I received a letter from a local court notifying me that Jefferson Capital Systems LLC was granted a default judgment against me. I have never had any type of account with Jefferson Capital Systems LLC. My name is very common in the XXXX Texas XXXX. Additional, the veracity of the claim hasnt been fully explored beyond a shadow of a doubt ( by me ) that includes examining the subject accounts owner, receiving a full accounting of all charges, full account payment history, reviewing the account contract, plaintiffs evidence of subject account ownership, evidence of plaintiffs attempts to make aware of impending lawsuit prior to filling, determining if plaintiff attorneys is working within Texas or is from out of state, reviewing the statute of limitations for the action- among other considerations. As such, is Jefferson Capital Systems LLC has disregarding federal laws designed to protect consumers at large. I urge the federal government start a full-scale audit/investigation on Jefferson Capital Systems LLCs practices including looking into all cases won by default judgment across the nation and prosecute all individuals in this operation that helped in any way to get any illegal judgment.

Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, MN XXXX They have no email. This debt says it is from XXXX XXXX which was the last phone carrier I had when I lived in the USA ( Hawaii ) ... but I have not lived in USA since XX/XX/XXXX. I called XXXX to cut off my service when I moved to XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ) but apparently they did not close out the account as they should have. I did not find out about the error until I had a work trip back to USA in XXXX. I have not been in the USA even for a holiday since that trip in XXXX. I have plenty of documentation that can prove my move to XXXX. Hawaii has a 6 year statute of limitations on debt so that has expired, but Jefferson Capital seems to show a date of XXXX. And I still live overseas ( XXXX now, still with military ) so it makes this difficult to dispute. This debt has not been validated to me in any way. Given my moves, it is probably related to problems with mail ... but this is ridiculous. XXXX can't charge someone out of the country that can't even know they are charging. I called to cancel. My cellphone wasn't even on once I flew to XXXX ( different SIM system ). And Capital can't use a date from 3 years AFTER I moved outside the USA. I've disputed the debt but not answer from anyone. Jefferson Capital has never sent me any paperwork validating the debt.

In XX/XX/XXXX a collection account from XXXX was removed from all 3 major credit bureaus after several disputes. XX/XX/XXXX I had a VA mortgage lender pull my report for a home loan, which DID NOT REFLECT the removed debt. On XX/XX/XXXX I woke up to an alert from XXXX that a delinquency debt was placed on my credit. I was NOT notified by the 3rd party debt collection agency JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS prior to this. I immediately called the number provided and was told by their agent that they did not handle that type of account and provided me with another number to call. Upon speaking with now a 4th party XXXX XXXX regarding this debt ( that was removed prior ), I was told that they did not need to send any information and they had the right to place the debt on my credit. I told the representative that they were required to send me all correct information regarding this account as well as provide 30 days for me to respond or dispute. The representative did not speak clear English and talked in circles. Despite the communication issue over the phone, These two companies are unwilling to take the legal steps, especially for an account that was REMOVED entirely from all bureaus! I immediately filed a dispute with XXXX and was notified 24 hours later that this account is accurate. I am beside myself with frustration!

I opened a XXXX XXXX Account XX/XX/XXXX, nearly 12 years ago and in the ten years that I used the service, I only missed one payment, my last payment ; because I moved out of the country and closed the account, yet unbeknownst to me, they still ended up charging me {$610.00} I was not even aware of the charge until I got back to America from XXXX. I tried to dispute it with XXXX directly, but they could not find my account in their store. I then did not know what to do about the collection, but they have injured my credit score. It is currently a charge off, I am a full-time student and also a full-time single mother and I in attempting to fix my credit. I do not think it should still be reflected upon my credit report, the crediting company is XXXX XXXX XXXX and the collection was opened XX/XX/XXXX. I am starting an XXXX program at the University XXXX XXXX and it is so expensive, as I am also graduating from the institution in 6 days with my XXXX in XXXX XXXX and a XXXX in XXXX I have accumulated nearly {$30000.00} in student loans. I need to secure funds for school and this is really restricting me because it has effected my overall credit score. I am working very hard to secure my son 's future and mine, and without credit I am limited even with a great education, I hope you can help me in resolving these issues.

Jefferson capital system, I was notified by the three major credit reporting agencies, the fraud was committed on my person and that the account that they have in their system may be pertaining to fraudulent activity. This company received a complete packet from XXXX which was downloaded to XXXX the other download/upload system. Upon XXXX receiving that information, they contacted this creditor and notify this creditor that identity theft may Exist in this consumer file. This collection agency was asked to conduct an investigation into the consumers fraud claims. The collection company never contacted Investigation and to Fraud and, when Notified that this is a fraudulent debt, this collection agency failed to cease collection activity and investigate the claim. Instead, they felt it would be better just to validate the Debt. This debt can not possibly be mine so seen that the perpetrator was caught, prosecuted and convicted. In this court case he stated on the Stan, that he used my information as well as others to make a profit on the Internet. That meant, selling your personal information using your personal information, and profiting from other peoples personal information. So it is already a clear violation based on the fact that a criminal was already admitted and been convicted of this fraudulent account.

The 3 major credit bureaus ignored my request to provide me with the documents to verify the disputed accounts. As a result, this means that the items have NOT been verified or you can not verify any of these accounts under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA. The unverified items still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. The credit bureaus are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify that this information is mine and is correct. In the results of your first investigation, you stated in writing that you verified these items as being reported correctly, yet no information has been provided to me. I have asked to be provided with the name of the individual, their business address, and telephone number of the individuals that were contacted to verify my accounts. The original letters were mailed out by certified mail on XX/XX/2019 and was delivered on XX/XX/2019 at XXXX for XXXX. The original letter was mailed out by certified mail on XX/XX/2019 and was delivered on XX/XX/2019 at XXXX for XXXX.

The credit bureaus had 15 days to get me the information I requested so the information MUST promptly DELETED since it was not verified.

On XX/XX/XXXX I called Jefferson Capital Systems LLC at XXXX XXXX about a payment plan option that is set to expire on XXXX XXXX. I wanted to choose option 1 for a full lump sum payment in full. I spoke with a representative named XXXX who could not explain why I received a collection on my XXXX credit report which dropped my score XXXXXXXX XXXX and it was only XX/XX/2023. He could not explain why so I requested a supervisor. A supervisor named XXXX XXXX spoke with me and informed me that they can actually report that to the credit bureau after having my account for 90 days. He then told me that they received my account on XX/XX/2023. I replied that 90 days would be XXXX XXXX and today was XXXX XXXX so it was not 90 days. He put me on a brief hold and then came back and told me it was 40 days and that my 40 days was expired. At that moment I felt that something was not right and that it may be thousands of other people who rights are being taken advantage of and being violated. Please see attached documents for verification and the phone call was on a recorded line at phone number XXXX on XXXX XXXX. Thank you so much for your help and investigation into this matter. My plan was to pay it before the XXXX XXXX deadline however it was already reported and had damaged my credit score significantly before that date.

XXXX ( and most likely other credit reporting agencies ) are reporting a debt shown by JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM, a collection agency, for a XXXX account opened in 2019. I disputed the account online with XXXX, days later they sent a status and said the account was VERIFIED AS ACCURATE. I contacted XXXX, and they say they have no obligation to ask for any proof of the account, if a creditor provides my name, address and social security number they will report it as a debt. After they asked me for paperwork to prove it wasn't my account ( I asked them, how am I supposed to prove a negative? Shouldn't the obligation be for them to ask Jefferson Capital for proof?? ). I also contacted Jefferson Capital, and after asking for all of my information, new address, etc., they simply went into debt collection mode and asked about me paying off the account. I stated that this was not my account, I've never had an account with XXXX, and asked them to please send me whatever documentation they had relating to the account being established ( my signature, where was phone sent, etc. ). They said they couldn't do that and hung up on me. How do I get this cleared up??? This is a ridiculous system where companies can submit faulty information and then aren't required to provide documented proof of the account when challenged.

I believe someone at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX used my name to open accounts for other people. I have an open XXXX account that has been opened in 2018 at that time I was told that I had thousands of dollars in collections that I owed? When I looked at the phone number that XXXX had on " my '' current account profile that they linked to the account that was owed thousands in collections ... I realized that the PHONE NUMBER *which anyone needs to open a utility account Is NOT Mine, nor has it ever been. I believe it is the key to proving that these old XXXX XXXX debts?? now being represented by Jefferson Capital Systems/XXXX XXXX XXXX Are bogus. Further I honestly believe that this was in fraud happened within XXXX as when I was a reported at the XXXX XXXX affiliate, there were several calls that came into the consumer office complaining of customers information beings used by XXXX employees to open bogus accounts for friends and relatives or ( street customers ) for those dishonest XXXX employees. I think this is what has happened in my case since I have had no other " identity theft '' issues outside of this Bogus XXXX account/debts. Please see the attached pic of the phone number on my XXXX Profile, it is not, nor has it ever been mine. Also review the company XXXX trying to get me to " settle '' this bogus debt.

I am not liable for this debt with JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY. I do not have a contract with JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY. JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY did not provide me with the original contract as I requested. I do not owe this debt and that made me to dispute it when I saw it on my credit report. JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY is supposed to provide me with the debt validation which they don't have. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY is required by federal law to verify, through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract, any and all accounts that they post on a credit report. Otherwise anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail or email in a fraudulent account.Under the FCRA, unverifiable accounts must be removed and if JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY must remove the account mentioned within 10 days, otherwise according to 15 USC 1692 I will sue or file an FTC report against JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY which has damaged my reputation, caused me serious mental stress, and affected my character by 1 ) reporting unauthorized debt on my credit report 2 ) ignored my humble request to remove this unauthorized account under the fair credit reporting act ( FCRA ) as my legal right.

On XX/XX/2021, i sent a dispute letter to the consumer reporting agency disputing an alleged debt by Jefferson Capital Systems. On XX/XX/2021 ( not within the 5 days 15 US code 1692g gives which is a violation ) i received a letter from Attorney at law XXXX XXXX stating that this is an attempt to collect a debt. After the consumer reporting agency failed to remove my dispute and stated the debt was verified i begun to research what verification methods were used to verify the alleged debt. Congress states the natural person has to verify a debt. Congress also states that in order to verify any debt interviews must be taken with family or neighbors, nothing on the list of validation has taken place therefore this alleged debt has not been verified. Pursuant 15 USC 1681b ( 2 ) permissible purpose which i have not given a written consent to furnish. On XX/XX/2021 i sent a letter regarding debt being alleged and that contacting myself via mail is a violation because you were never given consent. Since this charge off has been placed on my consumer report i have suffered living arrangement damages. As a consumer and natural person im aware my what my social security card and my birth certificate is. Jefferson Captial Systems has held an allege debt of {$3100.00} on my consumer report for atleast 4 months.

Two years ago I went to a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, CA. The associate asked if I would like to open a XXXX Debit Card. I said no, however they explained, this is NOT a credit card and is in no way tied to your credit. I agreed to open the card, which was simply linked to my checking account like a debit card. I filled out the information and gave it to the cashier/associate. The associate entered the information, then rang out the transaction. The transaction went through and I left the store with approximately {$50.00} in merchandise. I am now receiving notice from XXXX XXXX that I am in collections. I have called them and they said that the transaction did n't go through and now they have put a collection on my credit. This error occurred due to some system error with XXXX and I never received notice that I owed them anything. They will not remove the collection even if I pay them. My credit score has gone from the high 700 's to below 700. This all over {$50.00} on an account that I was told is not a credit account and was not tied to my credit whatsoever. Also the phone number they read back to me was wrong by one digit, they said they had called to try and collect the debt over the phone. I would have been able to pay this had the associate not entered my phone number in incorrectly as well.

In reviewing my credit reports, I noticed a collections account from Jefferson Capital for a XXXX XXXX account that is not mine. The original creditor listed is XXXX XXXX. The amount shows as {$2100.00} I have no knowledge of this account. I have never had an account with XXXX XXXX. Upon contacting XXXX, they confirmed that they have no account associated with my name, phone number, or address. This is clearly an unauthorized and fraudulent account. I contacted Jefferson Capital and disputed this collection account. They have failed to provide validation of the debt and have not removed it from my credit report. This inaccurate information is damaging my credit score and ability to obtain credit. I am requesting that the CFPB immediately open an investigation into this fraudulent account and require Jefferson Capital to validate the debt or remove it from my credit report. Please also require the credit bureaus to delete any reference to this unauthorized collection. I have attached copies of my my correspondence with XXXX XXXX, and my dispute letters to Jefferson Capital as evidence. Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter. Please let me know if you need any additional information from me. I look forward to your help correcting this unlawful entry on my credit file

I called Jefferson Capital regarding a collection on my credit report. The only option was for me to call another collection agency. I called the other number and spoke to a lady. I asked her about the debt. I wanted proof and verification that this is in fact my debt. She asked me to verify my info and email. She told me that she would send me the info via email. Then she ask me if I could make an arrangement to pay for the debt. The debt is {$9900.00}. She was willing to settle it for $ XXXX and in 30 days remove it from my credit BUT she would need to contact Jefferson Capital to verify if they would allow the settlement. I said ok. She said she would call me back. I NEVER heard from her again. This was on XX/XX/XXXX. I called back the next day and it went to a man 's voicemail. So I called with my sons phone and spoke to another lady. She stated I should definitely hear back from the company on Monday XX/XX/XXXX. I have yet to receive any email nor any call. This is affecting my credit score and it really is unfair that a company is reporting on my report yet allowing a different company to collect the debt. As a consumer I feel afraid I will get scammed out of my money in this instance because I can't be certain that they will keep their word. Especially from this experience so far.

I recently checked my credit report and found a debt from a debt collector called XXXX XXXX XXXX. First and foremost, I have never received any form of phone calls or letters at all from this company. I have never spoken to anyone from this company either. So when I saw XXXX XXXX XXXX has listed the open date for this debt on my report as XX/XX/XXXX, I was thoroughly alarmed. This debt was originally owned by XXXX XXXX as it states on my credit report. I have not had a XXXX XXXX account since years and years ago. And in all actuality, I have had a XXXX account since XX/XX/XXXX. I believe, XXXX XXXX XXXX has violated my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act by purposely re-aging my debt and making the statute of limitations longer without ever contacting me at all. I am not 100 % sure what year the XXXX XXXX account actually fell behind ( I'm thinking it was around XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX ). Which, if I am not mistaken, 5 years is the cut off mark for Florida statute of limitations. So if they did re-age my debt, XXXX XXXX XXXX can sue to collect a debt that may be time-barred. I have a image of my credit report showing the new incorrect date ; as well as, a copy of my original contract with XXXX reporting the date that I started my current account with them that I will be supplying.

I saw on my credit report I have an account with XXXX XXXX, that is past due and reported to collection to Jefferson Capital. I don't live in the US. I left the US in XXXX. Since then I have not maintained a residential address in the XXXX. According to the record, the account for cell phone was opened in XXXX. I was not in the US then. Why would I open an US cell phone account, when I was not even living in the country? I haven't paid taxes in the US then, not paid electricity, not had a job in the US then. It could be verified. I didn't know about the account until I looked it up on my credit report. I haven't received any notifications in XXXX or since then. It is for {$1000.00}. I am not even sure for what period that refers, what usage, on what residential address is this service based? I didn't have a US residential address in XXXX, so on what address is it based? I want a full investigation of the charge, I want to dispute it. Who opened it? The past due amount has been reported to two credit bureaus, XXXX and XXXX, and the third one knows about the account too. I tried to contact XXXX, but they say because the account has been transferred to a collector, they don't have more information about it. They can't tell me for what period it is, what is the address of the customer.

The company sent a letter months back stating I owed them money at which time I called and informed them they needed to contact my attorney as this was settled in bankruptcy. I get another letter today dated XX/XX/XXXX that I have until XX/XX/XXXX to pay them {$7700.00} remaining on the debt. This account was closed in my bankruptcy and it is against the law for them to be contacting me at all in regard to paying any remaining balance on this account. I have already told them once before that they needed to contact my attorney and they have ignored going that route. My bankruptcy was finalized as of XX/XX/XXXX and the vehicle is still taking up space on my property. I converted to CHXXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and they had ample amount of time to say anything to my attorney as well as come and pick up the vehicle. It has been sitting on my property taking up space and getting in the way for 10 months now and I am well within my rights to file a petition with the court to collect fees up to {$10.00} a day for rental space on the property. I will plan on proceeding with this within the next 30 days if I don't hear anything back. I am sending a copy of the letter from Jefferson to my bankruptcy attorney as well as he is within his rights to pursue any legal ramifications in regard to this matter.

I called Jefferson Capital Systems, today, XX/XX/2020. In an attempt to clear up, as in request a settlement on this collection notice on my credit report. I spoke to XXXX who was extremely rude, and constantly interrupted me and spoke over me. She gave me an amount of {$200.00}, to settle the account, to which I am in agreement to pay. I simply ask that they send me something in writing and I will pay it. They said they sent me something in the mail in XXXX which I have not received. I live in an apartment complex and our mail gets put all over the place. I have even had medication from the VA found in different mailboxes on at least two occasions. I said I would even take an email. I got tired of talking to her and asked for a manager. I ended up speaking to XXXX another extremely rude and disrespectful person. I told her that I would even accept an email while we were speaking on the phone and pay it over the phone. They refuse to send me anything until I gave my checking account information or debit card information. I cleared up an account with this company from a letter I had in my hand with an agreement. Please listen to the tape they have and you can easily hear me trying to make an arrangement to get this paid while be interrupted and spoken over which is very disrespectful.

I have called the company Jefferson Capital Systems and when I spoke to them on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I spoke to XXXX women. I asked the first woman if the reporting could be deleted from my credit report and she advised me that it is the policy of Jefferson Capital Systems LLC to not delete their reporting for any consumer. I asked to speak to someone more senior and the representative told me she is XXXX. I was transferred to a second lady, whom was identified as a supervisor, and I asked if they could remove their reporting due to extenuating circumstances. The supervisor even specified that a " homeless mother of XXXX '' could not have the reporting from this company deleted on her report. I consider their reporting to be harmful to me. It is difficult to get a representative from this company. Often when I call, I will receive an automatic message after holding saying, " Sorry, at this time we can not accept your call. Please try again later. '' This company did not offer or allow me to dispute their reporting and denied my requests to delete their reporting. I paid an outstanding bill XX/XX/XXXX to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC to pay a debt being collected for the original owner of the debt XXXX XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX. The matter is closed and was reported paid to the credit bureaus.

XXXX, XXXX and XXXX credit bureaus are selling my name, address and other confidential information to creditors and allowing them to validate and report false information to my credit reports over and over again. I hired an attorney to assist with getting negative, fraudulent debt in my name removed from my credit report only for the same information to be reported again months later by different vendors but same debt information that doesn't belong to me. I've reported it to all three credit bureaus to no avail. Example : Fraudulent Debt Showing on XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX amount {$480.00} removed XXXX 20222 after dispute however purchased by new company XXXX XXXX amount {$480.00} and added back to credit report as XXXX 2022 XXXX XXXX XXXX acct XXXX amount {$800.00} removed XXXX 2022 after dispute however purchased by new company XXXX XXXX amount {$800.00} and added back to credit report as XXXX 2022 XXXX XXXX XXXX acct XXXX amount {$1000.00} removed back in XX/XX/2022 and added back in XX/XX/ 2022 this is fraud XXXX XXXX XXXX acct XXXX amount {$220.00} removed back in XXXX2022 and added back in XX/XX/2022 this is fraud.

Throughout the years, i've had to file against the credit bureaus due to inaccurate reporting of the facts regarding a collections from XXXX that is handled by Jefferson Capital Systems. Last month, all the credit reporting agencies including XXXX finally removed this item from my report. As of today XX/XX/2021 my credit report shows there are no collections, zero. I am writing to you because there is a collection by mail from XXXX today and this is misreporting, unlawful, damaging top my perfect credit history and unlawful. Please see the attached documents. As it stands, Jefferson Capital and XXXX have been wrong all along and I have submitted much paperwork to prove it. It is unfair to report both things as true and false at the same time, therefore it is inconclusive and inaccurate reporting and it needs to be stricken and removed from my public record and report immediately. I find it appalling to see how these collection agencies do not ever do any thorough investigation as items keep getting placed back. This inaccuracy has been made public and it tis time to stop! As I see it, the credit reporting agency XXXX is wrong in reporting inaccuracies and at the same accounts as closed and removed and opened and current at the same time ; Inaccurate, damaging and unlawful.

I purchased a used XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX vehicle from XXXX that was financed through XXXX XXXX XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX. I made monthly payments on the vehicle until XX/XX/XXXX at which point I took the vehicle in to a dealership to trade in towards the purchase of a new vehicle. In doing so, I as well as the sales team contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX numerous times attempting to get a payoff balance so that the value of the XXXX could be applied to my new loan, and I could be credited for the trade in. Not only were we given numerous different totals, but every instance of trying to call in the payment was met with being placed on hold until we gave in and hung up. The dealership ended up securing funding for my new vehicle without the trade in value applied and sent me on my way. I was called twice after by XXXX XXXX XXXX in an attempt to take my monthly payment, and both times asked to be given a final payoff amount to no avail. Eventually XXXX XXXX XXXX repossessed the XXXX XXXX with many of my belongings still inside, and from what I am told, sold the vehicle at auction, and placed an account into collections against me for a random amount of money. They have made it so that there is a collections account on my credit report for over {$4000.00} due to some Jefferson Capital Systems.

I have received two letters from Jefferson Capital concerning {$1600.00} of debt that I allegedly owed. The last of these letters was sent on XX/XX/2023. I had no idea where this debt came from. My wife called the number provided by Jefferson Capital to inquire on XX/XX/2023. They told her the name of the person who had taken on the debt, when purchases were made, and what payments he made, as well as the person 's address and phone number. This debt came from " XXXX '' and was through XXXX XXXX. At least one charge was made on a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have never been on a XXXX XXXX, much less opened a credit card through them. The address provided to us was of the house I lived in when in XXXX grade XXXX XXXX years ago ). It seems that one of these companies found my name as connected with that house and then started sending me these notifications. The person my wife talked to did not know how my name was attached to the debt. The same day, I called Jefferson Capital to file a complaint. I tried to ascertain from the call person how my name became connected with this debt. He said that the man probably somehow got my social security number and address and opened an account. ( This does not make much sense, as he made 4 payments on the debt. ) We were able to dispute the debt.

I had an account show opened XX/XX/2019. Evidently this is an old XXXX XXXX account. The amount was {$2200.00}. This account was 10 years old and had already dropped off of my credit reports, then reopened and pulled my score down causing me to lose the pre-approved status on buying a home as well as {$1000.00} invested in septic permits etc. Then the account fell off again because, as I said, it was past statute of limitations and illegal to continue reporting. But why was I not already protected from this unethical approach? Then, XX/XX/2019 it was updated and bought by Jefferson Capital Systems. The balance was updated on XX/XX/2019. Now my score is being pulled down again after having worked to recover and about to pursue home buying again. I dont understand what gives either company the right to try sneaking around the law that was put there to protect consumers. This seems to violate the Fair Credit Reporting, it is definitely devious and unethical, Im pretty sure its illegal, and For these companies to join together in unfair practices against any consumer to manipulate them for money is unprofessional. Why are they not subjected or feel like the law doesnt apply to them? I want justice. I can not continue to be punished by greedy collectors and spiteful businesses.

I called XXXX yesterday about fraud and the rep said they only follow XXXX policy and was calling the other consumer reporting agencies bureaus and I told her they are not bureaus. That yall are reporting inaccurate information. A charge off is income and shouldnt be reported on my consumer report. The IRS already confirmed this. XXXX XXXX never sent me a XXXX and illegal sold a alleged debt to Jefferson Capital who I have no contract with that never provided DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE. XXXX did not exercise their grave responsibility, they was unfair, they was partial, and they did not respect my right to privacy. They never had permissible purpose and I never instructed them to furnish negative information on my consumer report. They never had my lawful consent in the first place. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit and other information on consumers. Also they rep said she can only do disputes. I demanded for it to be deleted/removed because that inaccurate information of the wrong name, charge off, and hard inquiries should not be on my consumer report. No consumer reporting agency got written instructions from I the consumer to report negative information and inaccurate information. They are acting as trustees!

As of today XXXX XXXX Jefferson Capital System has not responded, validated, or removed this account from my credit reports with XXXX XXXX, or XXXX in which this account is listed on all 3.

I first asked the cred itor Jefferson Capital Systems to verify the debt, they are collecting on behalf of XXXX . I asked them to provide me with a billing statement to verify all charges from XXXX , my account number from XXXX and the types of services I had. They failed to do this. I disputed this on my credit report as inaccurate info. The Credit Bureau responded and said that the information was accurate. I no longer disputed it and stated that it 's not under dispute anymore ; however, the collection agency sent me an actual copy on my credit report and I noticed that the information they have reported still is n't accurate and does n't make sense. They said the collection account was opened XXXX . They are reporting that the date of first delinquency was XXXX which is incorrect because I still had services with XXXX in XXXX of XXXX and the account was active and open and not delinquent. They also reported that the date the first major delinquency was report was XXXX , so if this is the case then how was the collection account opened before the first major delinquency was even reported. The dates are conflicting and it makes no sense and I requested the Credit Bureaus remove this inaccurate conflicting info but they still have refused to do so.

Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has been harassing me despite having paid them off already. I set up a payment plan and settled. I completely paid them off in XX/XX/2021, last week, they send me a letter stating I now owe {$50.00}. I called them and they told me I don't have a balance. I informed them of the letter, they then stated oh I do have a balance then. I asked why when they just told me initially I am paid in full. They began to ask me questions on when did I pay it off. I informed him the dates should be right there in his system since he just told me I had no balance at the beginning of the call. I asked for a supervisor and the agent laughed and put me on hold for over 5 mins. I called back and the same thing happened, I was told I have no balance, informed of the letter and again, all of a sudden now I do have a balance. Then the agent began talking about a debit for XXXX, I have never had any service of any kind with XXXX. I could barely get a word in, the agents kept cutting me off, raised their voices over mine. All I wanted was for the to validate this new " debit '' I owe. But they couldn't seem to answer any of my questions, explain anything, and would refuse to let me speak to a supervisor. These people are scammers and need to be looked into.

The debt collector goes by the name Jefferson Capital System. They reported an unpaid Debt on my credit report on XX/XX/2020 for the amount of {$1000.00} claim I ow this amount from the original creditor XXXX XXXX. I have made many attempts to resolve this error. I have reached out to XXXX XXXX who confirmed the debt does not belong to me as my account was paid. I have notified and disputed ownership of this debt with Jefferson Capital System a dozen times since XXXX of XXXX and every time I requested proof of the debt they claim belongs to me which they have never sent and that is because the debt does not belong to me and I have confirmed this with XXXX XXXX XXXX This debt collects Jefferson Capital System has violated my rights on more then 12 occasions I had requested Debt verification from them but the only thing they mail me is an offer for 10 % off the debt and has never once provided me debt verification. The debt belongs to a family member with a similar name and the same address however we have completely different SSN and birthdates. This debt collector has wrongfully accused me of a debt I do not owe and illegally continues to damage my credit report and harassment me with mail threats and discount offers and refuses to send proof or debt ownership.

I have been trying to resolve this issue with affirm for so long. I noticed the delinquent account when I was viewing my credit and saw that it was from a company that I did not recognize. I then reached out to them and was told that the back office ( people I was not allowed to directly speak with ) would resolve the issue. I continuously called and was told the same thing. I requested information from them and all they told me was the name of the store where the purchases were made. Also on the original account was an address I have never been associated with either.The purchases came from a store that I have never even shopped at. I tried to resolve the issue with them numerous times and they have never resolved the issue. Then I get served by Jefferson Capital to appear in court. They had given it to a debt collections after I had already explained everything to them. I reached out to Jefferson and explained my situation so they sent me to this website. This account/purchases/loan or whatever it is is not mine. I have had my purse stolen in the past which had my CA ID, passport, wallet, and cellphone in it. I'm not sure if this is how someone opened an account or credit card/loan in my name but I would like to get this resolved as soon as I can. Thank you.

XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX. located in XXXX XXXX, MN claims that I owe a debt of {$1100.00} and that the original debtor was XXXX. I sent the initial letter disputing the debt on XX/XX/2018. XXXX XXXX replied claiming that the debt was " verified '' however, they have failed to provide competent evidence BEARING MY SIGNATURE, showing that I have ( or ever had ) some contractual obligation to pay them. This is a violation of FCRA & FDCPA. If a company is unable to validate the debt, it must be requested by the credit bureaus that the entry be removed. On XX/XX/2018, I sent a second letter to XXXX XXXX requesting, yet again, a contract bearing my signature as proof that I have a legally binding contractual obligation to pay them. XXXX XXXX responded with an itemized statement rather than my signature on a contract. I requested for them to provide the name, address, and telephone number of each person who personally verified this alleged account, so that I may inquire about how they " verified '' without providing any proof, bearing my signature. As per FTC opinion letter from Attorney XXXX XXXX XXXX, they must be aware that a printout of a bill or itemized document does NOT constitute verification. I am a victim of identity theft, and I am simply requesting proof.

After already paying off the debt through XXXX XXXX over a year and half ago it was removed from my credit immediately and now we went to check my credit again today and it popped back up on there in the amount of {$1400.00} and when I reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX they can not provide me with any information of phone calls, written notice, any account info. I provided that they give me all my info before going any further, spoke with my bank and they also do not understand why it popped back up on my credit when it has been paid for and already taken off my credit report once before. I am furious because this dropped my credit score of 43 points for no reason, they have no sent me any notice to dispute, no phone calls, no mailed forms etc. they have no info stored in their system that I owe this. Its very frustrating due to the fact I was suppose to be getting my loan for my house today and this stopped me because they have falsified information and have no proof of the debt still being owed. It was paid for once in the amount of {$840.00} and taken off my credit and now they jacked it up to {$1400.00} and no explanation of why or how it happened. Theyre clueless and if this isnt taken care of Im reporting to the XXXX and getting a attorney involved. XXXX

The primary statute in Illinois requiring licensing in the area of debt collection is the Illinois Collection Agency Act. ( 225 ILCS 425 et seq ). Under the Act, anyone acting as a collection agency must obtain a collection agency license. An entity is considered to be acting as a collection agency when, among other things, it engages in the collection of debts for others or buys accounts, bills or other indebtedness and engages in collecting the same ( 225 ILCS 425/3 ). Debt collection is defined as any act or practice in connection with only consumer debts 225 ILCS 425/2 ). Even out-of-state debt buyers must be licensed, if they buy and sue on consumer accounts in Illinois ( LVNV Funding , LLC v. Trice, 952 NE2d 1232 ( 2011 ) ). To obtain the collection agency license, a {$750.00} fee must accompany the application, along with a bond for {$25000.00}. The applicant must also provide an employment history, financial statement, employee identity listing and trust account financial report. Please provide the following : you signed the application the entity suing you purchased the right to collect on the debt the balance claimed as being due is calculated properly the loan has not been rendered unenforceable due to the expiration of the statute of limitations

I was called on XX/XX/22 at XXXX am, the company was XXXX XXXX XXXX via XXXX, I asked to call them back as I was at work. I was provided XXXX to call back. Mind you, I have never heard of or from this company prior to today. What's more is they called me using a fake/unreachable number rather than their public/main contact number. Upon calling I verified basic info ( name/address ) they advised that they purchased a debt and were attempting to collect on that debt. I asked that they send written correspondence within 5 days, and that I deny and dispute the alleged debt. The rep would not tell me how much the debt was for, only that it was for XXXX XXXX. The phone rep would not give an employee ID ( stating that she does not have one ) nor any identifying info. She then stated that I can not just dispute the debt, that I am required to give her the exact reason why and that this was not an argument. I again asked for a debt validation/verification letter, to which she stated that she did not have to and that this means they would have to contact the original creditor as they bought the debt from someone who was not the original creditor ( not my problem ) and may not have all the information needed. She then placed me on hold and disconnected the call.

I received a collection notice from Radius ( 2nd collection agency ) on XX/XX/XXXX. The debtor description listed XXXX XXXX yet I've never had any account with XXXX. I called XXXX and learned that the account was opened by XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX by someone using my old name ( changed in XX/XX/XXXX after marriage ), a fake email address and phone number. I didn't open this account. The account was apparently closed in XX/XX/XXXX at which time XXXX sold the debt in the amount of {$980.00} to Jefferson Capital Systems on XX/XX/XXXX ( 1st collection agency ). I never received any invoice or collection notice from XXXX or Jefferson Capital Systems. The first time I learned of this was when I received the collection letter from from XXXX. I filed a police report on XX/XX/XXXX and it was approved on XX/XX/XXXX. I've pulled my credit reports and observed no suspicious activity. Through the FTC/Identify Theft.Gov, I submitted all appropriate paperwork and demand letters to XXXX, both Debt Collectors and all Credit/Reporting Agencies. All aside from Jefferson Capital Systems have responded and wiped out the debt/resolved the issue. Jefferson Capital continues to pursue collection of this falsified debt. I have all documentation related to this matter. Please help me.

2022 I discovered I was the victim of fraud and that my credit information was being used by others. I had approximately {$28000.00} stolen from my bank account and had to close and open a new account. Numerous credit accounts were opened unknown to me, in my name. At the time a relative was living with me and using my credit information, my social security no. and other vital information in my name. I reported that these were not my charges, this was written off by the credit card co. and sold to a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have requested a police report from the police department in XXXX, PA, and requested assistance from the XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX PA and reached out to the Pennsylvania Attorney General with no help. After months of corresponding with the Area Agency on Aging, they promised they were speaking to Police Dept., Secret Service to track down and then discovered they were no longer assisting. My brother, who was living with me at the time, died XX/XX/2022 and had been using my credit and opening these cards- I believe another party who he met on the internet and I believe was being scammed, was involved and using this information as well ... These are charges I did not make and I am not aware of but can get no help in getting this resolved.

About 7 years ago, I had a 2 year contract with XXXX with only a couple of months left to go when the phone stopped working due to an internal software issue and nothing I had done. Even though I had been paying for full coverage insurance every month for almost years, they wouldn't cover my phone because it had a small Crack in the corner of the screen. When I told them to fix the phone and don't worry about the Crack, they said it didn't work like that. They don't really fix your phone, they trade you for another one. So in order to do that your phone has to be in perfect cosmetic condition. Not only did they not validate my insurance, but they wanted me to pay hundreds of dollars for a deductible, to fix the phone, AND they wanted me to pay the monthly bill for a phone that didn't work. I told them I'll just go get a prepaid and cut my losses, and they told me I would also have to pay money for " breaking my contract ''!!! XXXX refused to help me resolve this issue in any way, then they sent it to collections where it has been ignored for years waiting for it to fall off my credit report. Only now there are XXXX XXXX accounts with 2 different numbers and two different amounts! One of them isn't mine, and the other should be erased out of decency!!!

'' I asked her what address they have of this so-called original debt, and she said " XXXX XXXX XXXX '', which I realized that this is either fake debt or someone else 's debt or that someone used my identity because I didn't live at my current address until XXXX, AND I never owned this account or credit card at all, and I keep all old credit cards, even those credit accounts that I have previously closed just because I am afraid of someone getting my personal identifying information from old accounts, etc.

I bought a cell phone at XXXX from a XXXX kiosk over 7 years ago. I returned the phone to XXXX before 30 days. XXXX claims I never returned the phone, but I did, I had a receipt for the returned phone. They sent my account to collections, I called them, sent them a copy of the return, but they still refused to credit me and said, '' they couldn't take the account out of collections. '' This account has been sold to several different collection agencies over the years, and I've called every single one of them explaining I returned the product, but they insist I pay {$470.00}. Because the accounts been transferred so many times, it looks like my debt is only 2 years old. If I kept the phone I'd have paid for it, the XXXX manager at the time was aware of the return, I even sent them a statement from him saying he accepted the return. According to XXXX, they never authorized the return, but the return was made at the XXXX kiosk where it was purchased, then I was directed to the XXXX return desk to complete the transaction. It was paid for on my XXXX XXXX at the time, I closed that account because I closed XXXX XXXX. I'd appreciate this bogus collection which has plagued my credit creating a false low & constant derogatory blemish on my credit report.

My claim concerns Jefferson Capital Systems ( debt buyer ) attempting to collect on an account which is disputed by myself under general principles as outlined in the FCRA. I have disputed this account with XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, and the company stamps the dispute as having been deemed accurate days later, with no proof whatsoever, no investigation, no documents, nothing but the false statement that they have met the guidelines for accuracy in disputing as presented in the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Jefferson Capital Systems has violated my rights in this regard, and I wish for this agency to intervene and mediate this matter, make this complaint public so that others may learn from it and so that it becomes part of the public record against Jefferson Capital Systems violation of consumer rights. I authorize this agency to review all my credit bureaus, to verify the claims outlined, where multiple disputes have been presented, including date and time, and when they have been returned as accurate ( date and time ) without the requested information. Also, since I dispute this as not mine, I ask that this agency mediate the matter of mandating an investigation and removal of this error collection, so far as it is able under the law.

To Whom It May Concern : XXXX XXXX Account Number XXXX : XXXX Account Number XXXX : XXXX Account Number XXXX : XXXX RE : Jefferson Capital System I have sent numerous letters to the credit bureaus advising them I do not have a contract with Jefferson Capital System, and I have asked them repeatedly to produce a contract with this collection agency showing I owe this debt to them, but to date, they have not produced a contract. On XXXX, XX/XX/, I was contacted by an agent from Jefferson Capital System stating they are a debt collecting agency and I owe them for a contract I had with XXXX XXXX. I advised the caller I did not owe Jefferson Capital System anything as they had not produced the contract for services rendered. On XXXX, XX/XX/, I received an alert from my credit reporting subscription where Jefferson Capital System increased the amount of the collection. I believe this updated report was done with malicious intent causing my credit score to be lowered. I have filed a complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX to report their malicious and unethical practices. I am not liable for this debt with Jefferson Captial System as I do not have a contract with them as they have not provided me with the original contract as I requested.

There is a new company, Jefferson Capital Systems called tried to collect a debt. this company reported the debt collection to XXXX for the third time. The original company is XXXX. XXXX has also reported the debt collection and has My credit score has been affected several times for the same debt. The last time was this month, XX/XX/2023. I do not think that the companies have the right to affect several times for the same debt. Now, Jefferson Capital Systems has reported as new debt starting 2023. I think that they are trying to force to pay. The original debt was created because XXXX was charging for services that I did not request. I had to spend hours on the phone to clear those charges. I got sick and had to cancel the services. Once, I canceled the services, XXXX was not able to charge for services not requested like Music subscription. In fact, I am about to file a law suite against XXXX. At this point, I want to stop the same debt being reported several times to my credit report. I have documentations for the communications in writing asking XXXX to stop charges for services not being requested. I can show that my credit report has the same debt more than 3 times in different periods, reducing my credit score multiple times.

I was under the age of XXXX at these times and did not even know what credit was or how to apply for a credit card, let alone go apply for over XXXX credit cards at the age of XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. I highly suspect my personal information was stolen by my XXXX XXXX The reason I highly suspect he did this is because I lived in his house at the time as well as my mother and XXXX brother ( who also has a ruined XXXX XXXX because of XXXX XXXX committing identity theft ). Again I lived in his house during these times these credit cards were opened up, which means he had very easy access to my social security card as well as my birth certificate or any other extremely personal information he could use to falsely identify himself as me in order to get some easy money. My XXXX XXXX XXXX name is XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am willing to give any information about him or myself in order to fix my credit.

I got my cell phone connection with XXXX ( Account # XXXX ) in XX/XX/2019. As part of the deal I was supposed to get a {$150.00} gift card, which I never received. I closed the account in XX/XX/2019. I was retroactively billed for {$150.00} gift card. I reached out to XXXX, who assured that they will investigate. I explained them that if investigation concludes that I never received/used the initial {$150.00} gift card, then they can cancel off the charges. Instead I was told, if that's the case they can not cancel the charges since the rewards department and billing department are separate.Instead, I would be issued a new {$150.00} gift card by the rewards department, I can then call the billing department and use the new {$150.00} gift card to pay back the outstanding bill. They never returned back to me with the results from their investigation. Instead, they keep reaching out to different debt collectors ( 4 different debt collection agencies so far ) and continue to harass me to pay for the gift card. They have also got these charges listed on my credit report/credit history. I have tried to get this issue investigated through XXXX, XXXX and XXXX but XXXX keeps changing debt collector agencies ( most recent one being Jefferson.

I received a letter from debt collector Jefferson Capital on XX/XX/23 requesting {$8200.00}. I have no knowledge of doing business with Jefferson Capital, so I mailed the CFPB debt validation letter certified on XX/XX/23. On XX/XX/23, I received a response from Jefferson Capital dated XX/XX/23. The information sent to me was unresponsive to my demands. I requested proof that I owe money to Jefferson Capital. The verification wasnt proof I owed them. In fact, Jefferson Capital isnt listed on any of the papers sent to me! The verification doesnt even address the amount Jefferson Capital is asking that I pay, proof that I am even obligated to pay the alleged debt, or evidence that Jefferson Capital owns the debt. The letter also stated Jefferson Capital was not reporting this account to any credit reporting agencies ; however, on XX/XX/23 ( the same day I received the letter ), I was notified by 3 credit reporting agencies, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, that this unvalidated debt was added to my credit report as a collection. I asked Jefferson Capital for straightforward items, and they refused to give them to me while continuing collection activities. I am applauded by the blatant disregard for the law. Especially 1006.38 ( d ) ( 2 ) ( I ).

Jefferson Capital is a debt purchaser. Initially they had two amounts reporting as delinquent on my credit report from XXXX: $XXXX and $XXXX for the same date. I filed an official dispute; the results said the debt was verified as accurate but that is incorrect. I contacted Jefferson and spoke to XXXX—op #XXXX. She said the $XXXX would automatically be removed but I had to speak to a second operator for the other amount. I spoke to XXXX—op #XXXX. She referred me to Supervisor XXXX XXXX who said the other charge would be removed and updated on my credit report within 30 days. I told him the erroneous charge had prevented me from obtaining a mortgage to purchase a home and I wanted it in writing that the fake debt was removed. I just got an update on my report. Instead of the bogus debt being removed, another late payment has been falsely reported. I was on a payment assistant program through XXXX XXXX for XXXX. The account was reconciled every quarter and I was notified of my portion still owing. I paid the bill and even included a screenshot of my bank account substantiating the payment had been made. I did inform Mr XXXX that I would report the fraudulent charges to the Attorney General if they weren’t promptly removed.

On XX/XX/2021, I was reviewing my credit report and to my surprise I noticed Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC reporting a charge- off account on my credit file in the amount of {$2500.00}. So, I wrote the debt collector Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC a letter asking this company to validate the debt they are saying I owe their company on my behalf. The collector failed to validate the debt under 15 U.S. Code 1692 ( g ) Section 809 ( b ). The collector failed to provide a valid basis for the debt, such as the original contract/agreement, promissory note between Consumer and original creditor, bearing Consumer wet-ink signature. The Collector failed to provide me a verified ( sworn to by Affidavit ) copy of the contract your firm has with the original creditor authorizing your firm to engage in collection activities on their behalf against the above -alleged account. The Collector failed to provide an affidavit signed under XXXX XXXX XXXX that Collector or any agent ( XXXX ) acting on their behalf has not violated any portion of the Fair Debt Collection Practice Act. Jefferson Capital Systems has been harassing me, committing mail fraud and identity theft for using my identifying information on behalf of this alleged debt.

I had an account with XXXX, which went overdue and they sent the debt out to a collection agency. This agency, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, WA XXXX contacted me on XX/XX/XXXX. I paid them the amount of XXXX via single-entry ACH debit on that same date, XX/XX/XXXX. I received and still have the receipt for this payment. Since that time, 5 years ago, several other agencies have sent letters and contacted me in an attempt to collect this same debt from XXXX. When told I had already paid, and upon seeing proof, they would suggest I call XXXX and stated XXXX needed to take it off their records so the debt would not continue to be reported and sold to other collection agencies. I have repeatedly contacted XXXX to no avail. I just received a notice from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX, which stated the debt was so old I could not be sued for it nor could it be reported to any credit agency, but they offered 2 options to resolve the amount of the debt ( which had been paid in XXXX ). I am beyond frustrated and confused how this single debt from XXXX could last this many years, being sent to different collection agencies, especially considering it has been paid. I would like this matter resolved immediately.

I disputed this Jefferson capital system account and did not get a proper dispute result. The validation letter I sent reads as such : I checked a copy of my credit report and realized that there was a collection reported from your agency, which I was not notified about. I do not reject to provide with the debt amount. However, this is a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ), that your claim is disputed and a validation is demanded. This is asking for proof regarding the debt that I owe and verifying it. I am requesting you to stop all collection activities including reporting this information on my credit report. I am sure that you are aware of the fact that non-compliance with this request may end up in legal obligations.

Please dispatch copies of the following with your reply : 1. The agreement which authorizes you to collect debt on the assumed debt. 2. The signed agreement from the debtor confirming to pay the debt. 3. The documents regarding the payments made on this account and validation of the amount.

Jefferson capital failed to validate this account. This account need to be removed immediately. Jefferson capital system is violating the laws.

I received a letter last year stating that a card was opened in my name and there was a {$280.00} balance. I knew this wasn't mine and wrote a letter requesting a list of charges. All of the activity was in Arizona. I do not live in Arizona and I have never been there. During this same time, another account opened in my name as a result of fraud, fortunately I was able to successfully dispute it. Looking into the account, I realized that I was not contacted until almost a year after it was opened. I contacted the debt collector and did not get far with them. During the phone call they could not identify me. They asked or my current and past addresses, as well as my phone number. No of my addresses matched what they had on file and they stated they were unable to help me because they could not verify my identity. A couple of weeks ago I tried to dispute using XXXX and they disagreed. I received a letter with an offer of paying {$160.00}, which is not a lot. However, I do not wish to pay and they consider the payment is me admitting that this is my debt. I have exceptional payment history for my other accounts and this makes my account look bad because its a collection and shows up as multiple late payments.

Hello, I received a letter from Jefferson Capital stating I owed {$340.00} from XXXX XXXX. I was very suspicious as I only used XXXX once, not for that amount or near it. I contacted chat support and they confirmed that this was not mine, I had no debt and that they do not even use this company. I am not sure if the company is at fault ( Jefferson Capital ) because there was no way to get in touch with them other than postal mail, and that is not easily tracked, and their phone system was not working ( my account number was not working ) though when I did put my account number ( from them ) in their system online, it did show up with my personal information! That being said, I could not contact them that way either - only to pay the alleged bill. So, I have proof ( screenshot ) that I do not have a debt nor ever did with XXXX. This is identity theft and I need it addressed and not to be on my credit. Date of letter XX/XX/XXXX though I received it on XX/XX/XXXX Amount : XXXX Debt Description : XXXX XXXX XXXX confirmed this is not mine at all* They gave me the option to dispute but I can only use postal mail or phone, both of which are impossible for me to properly track in a timely manner. Help! XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/2020 I filed a complaint with CFPB, due to Jefferson Capital Systems ( " JCS '' ) trying to collect a debt not owed. After 3 notices of dispute, and during 4 months after disputing the unrecognized debt " JCS '' never provided proper validation, and never provided any evidence to prove, any binding liability, after never providing any proper validation as FTC Attorney XXXX describes in his opinion " JCS '' was obligated to remove the account from my credit report not later, than 30 days according to the FCRA and FDCPA, and keeps violating the law by not removing the account reported as XXXX XXXX, that " JCS '' clearly claims ownership, and to be the Current Creditor, as he has been doing for the last year. In addition to that " JCS '', from the moment the consumer notified formally the dispute of the account had to place a note on the account about the dispute no later than 30 days as per the two Acts referred above mandate. The evidence provided shows 4 months showing no dispute. Jefferson Capital Systems has continuously been violating the FCRA, and the FDCPA. Attached you will find the detail, and evidence, to prove the multiple times that JCS violated the law, and keeps violating the law.

I noticed at the end of last year that I had a series of false debts on my credit report, that collection agencies are attempting to collect from me. These debts all occurred around the same period of time. The 3 companies are XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX. I was able to call XXXX and ask them specifically what info was in the account and I ended up finding out that my older sister had used my name SSN and DOB to get cable at her apartment. They said If I were to file a police report and give proof of report they would remove debt. I filed a police report and before turning it over to them I noticed they were nice enough to have already removed it. # SOLVED The XXXX XXXX was previously a XXXX bill apparently. My sister or also is the culprit for this as well. I've never had a phone in my name by XXXX. I attempted to dispute with this XXXX XXXX XXXX through XXXX and XXXX, letting them know of the situation with XXXX and stating that I have been a victim of identity fraud by my sister. They didnt even attempt to contact me or look into anything. # UNSOLVED I'm tired of them trying to get me to pay for this when someone took my personal info and breached my personal information. I feel violated.

XXXX reported a debt in my name of {$1100.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2017 claiming I had defaulted on a 2 year contract and not paid the first months bill, causing an account disconnection. Contacted XXXX to advise them that i have never had phone service with them. The claimed the debt was valid. When i asked for a copy of the contract that I had supposedly agreed to I was informed that there was no contract and that it was an in store sale. They advised me to contact the local authorities to file a police report for identity theft. The local police would not be able to file anything as there is no paperwork, no phone number, no date when the service was opened, no account number that XXXX would provide. The reason they could not provide it was that I wasn't able to verify any of the information, obviously because I had not opened the account. The only information that I was able to get was that it was sold in a store in Missouri. I live in Virginia, have no relatives or friends in Missouri, and gave no one in Missouri permission to open a phone in my name. Disputed the issue with the XXXX XXXX, and XXXX who all came back and claimed the debt was valid. All agencies claim it meets FCRA requirements.

If this documentary evidence can not be produced and JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud.

JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS LLC is communicating with me ( a consumer ) in connection with collection of an alleged debt that I do not owe. They do not have my consent to communicate with me. JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS LLC has my personal private information without my consent. This is identity theft. They are a third party debt collector who purchased this alleged debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX. No consent from me to communicate with me is a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. They are reporting inaccurate, incomplete, negative and damaging collection information to my consumer report with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. Pursuant to 15 USC 1692c, I am notifying JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS LLC that I refuse to pay the alleged debt and I wish for them to cease further communication with me which included reporting information to my consumer report. The only communication allowed aside from what 15 USC 1692c ( c ) allows is a copy of the AGGRAVATED VALUE OF PURCHASE which will show how much they purchased this alleged debt for as they are extorting me for payment in the amount of {$10000.00}. If they did not purchase this alleged debt for {$10000.00} then they are sharing false & misleading information.

On XX/XX/XXXX an agreement was reached with Jefferson Capital to settle a debt, for a XXXX account. They promised if i paid the amount agreed of {$160.00}, they would remove the XXXX account from my credit. In the course of a year, I contacted them several times and everytime they would say to send the credit companies the satisfactory letter except I would wait months and no letter. I kept contacting the credit agency and they kept referring me back to Jefferson Capital. This back and forth went on for a while. I recently contacted Jefferson Capital in XXXX of XXXX upset and got them to agree to send me the satisfactory letter electronically since a whole year had gone by and I never received it by mail. I sent it to all 3 credit agency as instructed but they still would not remove the XXXX account. I called back Jefferson Capital back and now they told me to send the letter to XXXX. For a whole year I have been bounced back and forth! Jefferson Capital were the ones who promised to remove the XXXX account from my credit report. I am requesting that they please honor their agreement and remove that account as they promised from my credit. I kept my end of the agreement and paid them.

XX/XX/2016 verizon sold me faulty phones and the service was not working we returned the items and proceeded to cancel and in doing so they had agreed to let us out of our contract but instead put us into collections illegally. They then sold that debt to jefferson capitol who reset the clock on the time the debt had been occurred forwarding the clock a whole year. Because we returned the product and canceled within the 30 day period we dont owe XXXX and they charged us a {$300.00} cancelation fee which is illegal breaking a contract, somehow XXXX is now {$600.00} not sure how thats possible but this fraud and anyways they could not fulfill the contract because they didnt service our area and the phones didnt work because they couldnt provide service when we put our sim card in it said no service. I do not owe any debt to jefferson capitol and they have refused to provide any information proving this debt is even valid, dates, amount ect even after sending them a request for validation. Regardless the statue of limitation is 4 years in florida to remain on a credit report which transunion and other credit reporting agencies are in violation of because they refuse to remove this zombie debt.

My mom recently found out that there was a debt that was owed to XXXX in the amount of {$280.00} which was due to Identity Theft. This information was found out after a credit check was done through XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Michigan. My XXXX mother had been on the waiting list for 2 years. Now, due to identity theft, Jefferson Capital system is holding her up from getting into the apartment that she has been waiting on. Jefferson Capital system was called and told that we contact the Federal Trade Commission to file an identity theft report. Because the amount that was due on the XXXX was not my mom 's. My mom was not in Michigan during the time that these changes were made. Jefferson Capital systems were asked to send a letter to XXXX XXXX XXXX, stating that they are aware that the charges that were made to XXXX were due to Identity and that the charges will be deleted. Per XXXX at Jefferson Capital system states that the XXXX charges would be deleted from all three credit bureaus week. Unfortunately, Jefferson Capital system refused to send a letter, which is causing my mom to go back on the waiting list until something else is available. Which could be a long holdup for my mother.

I have been attempting to dispute an unverified account on all 3 of my Credit reports during this process I have sent 2 dispute letters as well as debt validation letters each certified to XXXX XXXX and XXXX on dates XXXX XXXX and XX/XX/2020 to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC as well as the original creditor which is XXXXXXXX XXXX. The only response from the XXXX XXXX was an invoice sent on XX/XX/2020. They have been unable to provide me with original contract bearing my signature, account history and other documents I have requested twice. Furthermore after failing to receive proper debt validation from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC it has been brought to my attention this debt has been misrepresented. In the Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, also in respect to Section 623 of the Fair Credit Reporting Act furnishers must note delinquency within 90 days, list the same date as delinquency as the original creditor and notify consumers of negative listings within 30 days of reporting. All of these statues have bran violated by Jefferson Capital Systems LLC regarding this account. I have submitted this complaint in attempt to have this debt removed from all 3 credit bureaus.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX Im filing a complaint because this is not a valid debt and it shouldnt be in collection. This bill is stemming from a disagreement over an early termination fee. I was told in person by a representative that they had to put me in a contract for a promotion to take effect but that it would not have an early termination fee. They went over that two times to my face in person. I did not read the fine print because I completely trusted the representative. I cant help but feel completely duped here since I was misled by one of their Customer Support. I am in a very difficult situation now, being the only provider for the family. I have to work hard and provide everything for them. I have a sick mother to take care of and I need to buy a home that can accommodate her medical need and one that is in closer proximity to the treatment center she visits weekly. This collection account on my credit report is the only thing that is preventing me from moving forward on this. Its beyond frustrating. I would sincerely appreciate if they would submit a request to remove this account from my credit history.

I started this journey at the beginning of the year when I checked my credit and noticed an account from Jefferson Capital account number XXXX for {$580.00}. I originally contacted the credit bureaus to dispute the account due to the account not belonging to me and is not something that I recognize. I also pointed out reporting errors with the listing as its suppose to be reporting 100 % accurately and asked for proof of verification received from Jefferson Capital and did not receive anything but a generic response with no proof. Afterwards I contacted Jefferson Capital directly on XX/XX/2019 via certified mail USPS # XXXX delivered on XX/XX/2019 at XXXX XXXX and asked for them to verify they are attempting to collect from the correct person. I also requested they send me competent evidence with a full accounting and original contract and I never received a response and its still reporting on my credit which it shouldn't because no one seems to have the proper documentation and accounting so this should be removed as I am not responsible for this debt. I never received validation of the account nor any notice/statement from them stating they are trying to collect on an alleged debt.

I filed a challenge to a fraudulent collections on my credit report with the three credit bureaus and only one took it off-XXXX XXXX. XXXX and XXXX have not and will not explain why and has refused to send me their decision and why via mail. XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), who has had a plethora of complaints for falsely accusing people of having a collections with them and destroying their credit, claims I had a contract with XXXX XXXX and owe them over {$2600.00}. This is not true. I had a prepaid account with them years after this supposed account was opened. Even if this was true it would have been a breach of contract because I know XXXX 's policies and nowhere does it say they can sell you information to a third party and that is exactly what XXXX is claiming happened. On top of this XXXX allowed XXXX to change information on my credit report without my knowledge or consent. I have already complained about both of these things with this company and it was closed without my consent claiming I said I no longer had a dispute. I requested to have it reopened and I was told it was, but have not received any response nor can I find it. This is my second attempt at resolving this issue.

The debt was submitted to Jefferson Capital System. I did not have an agreement with this collection agency. I sent a letter of verification to validate this debt on XX/XX/2022. Your firm has failed to send the legally required validation of this debt. You have been notified that your actions are detrimental to me and that your firm has violated ( including but not limited to ) the Consumer Credit Protection Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Your firm knew or should have known that the actions taken against me and the information collected about me was inappropriate and damaging to me. Failed to use reasonable care in the course of business and failed to use even minimal procedures to ensure that I was not harmed. Communicated and are continuing to communicate incorrect and defamatory information to third parties including but not limited to : XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. As a result of these blatantly reckless, wanton, and intentional acts, I have suffered and continue to suffer general and specific damages. I am also very upset at your firm 's intentional infliction of XXXX distress and at the other diminishments of the quality of my life.

I reviewed my credit report again on XX/XX/2022 and the account continues to reflect on my credit report and have not received any correspondence from creditor to validate this account as correctly belonging to me, nor has my credit report been updated to reflect that the account is disputed and therefore a 2nd validation letter was sent out on this day. After reviewing credit report again on XX/XX/2022 there have been no updates and account is still reflecting on the report. I do not believe the account belongs to me nor do I believe that the creditor has authorization to access the account nor authorization to attempt to collect on the account and the account continues to negatively affect me. Please strike and remove this account from all 3 credit bureaus until adequate validation has been received proving that the account belongs to me and all information is correct.

Jefferson Capital Systems is reporting to the credit bureaus inaccurate information from a debt they purchased from my original creditor. They are showing XXXX different amounts on my credit, XXXX for XXXX and the other for XXXX. I have reached out via mail requesting proof of debt owed without a response in return. They also have an address on file where I never lived in the state of Georgia. They have illegally reaged the debt stating that it was opened in XX/XX/XXXX when the account went into collections in summer of XXXX with the original creditor. They also have my loan term reported as 1 month which is incorrect and are reporting late payments to my credit as if the account is open and even that isnt consistent. They skip over a few months instead of consistently reporting, and they shouldnt be reporting a closed account as open. I have disputed many times with XXXX and have been unsuccessful with no valid proof of the debt owed obtained from this debt buyer that can even legally collect on my debt. Also this debt is from the state of TX and according to TX law statue of limitations on a debt is 4 years in TX. This debt has reached its limitation per where it originated.

Last year a debt collection agency named " XXXX '' attempted to collect a non-existent debt owed to XXXX in excess of {$5000.00}. They had mailed several notices that I had discarded since I know the debt isn't owed and validated this with XXXX themselves. No credit line was ever opened with them. I had requested debt validation and to cease contact. I received a letter from them stating that they will no longer communicate and the account had been closed. Today I receive a letter from a company named " Jefferson Capital '' which I believe is associated with XXXX from some brief research. They are attempting to collect a non-existent debt owed to XXXX for {$7400.00}. Once again, validated with XXXX that this does not exist and is not owed. At this point, an investigation should be made to XXXX XXXX and Jefferson Capital Systems LLC for this behavior. XXXX lied ( Violation 1 ) about the account being closing and instead chose to forward it to JCap. JCap has not printed information on what to do if I believe the debt is not owed on the letter, so that's violation 2. Continuing to contact me about this non-existent debt after request to cease contact is potentially violation 3.

I have reached out to all major consumer reporting agencies including XXXX XXXX and XXXX It has been over 30 days and as per the Fair Credit Reporting Act these fraudulent accounts must be deleted without 100 % accurate verification. Jefferson Capital Systems has violated my consumer rights and the Fair Debt Collection Practice act by continuing to report fraudulent established accounts to my credit file after being notified by the credit bureau. In addition, sections 605b, 609, and 611 have also been violated under the FCRA. The fraudulent accounts still remain reporting on my credit file and is a clear violation.

Jefferson Capital has illegally reported XXXX collection accounts to my personal credit reports. According to their own words, The law limits how long you can be sued on a debt. Because of the age of your debt, we ( Jefferson Capital Systems ) can not sue you for it and we will not report it to any credit reporting agency. In many circumstances, you can renew the debt and start the time period for the filing of a lawsuit against you if you take specific actions such as making a written promise to pay. You should determine the effect of any actions you take with respect to this debt. I live in the state of Pennsylvania where the statute of limitations is 4 years. According to their own statement these unverified and unsubstantiated debts are already over this statute. I request that Jefferson Capital verify all of the following information Full original account number Date original account was opened Any written agreements between myself and the original creditor stating the amount owed Full account summary and itemized calculation the debt owed Date of first delinquency with original creditor Dates and times of any contact with myself trying to actually verify the debt.

Jeffersons Capital Systems garnished my payment without any notice or a heads up before the process continues. I personally wanted to settle the debt but they knowingly sent the court papers to the wrong address. I specifically said KNOWINGLY because they came to serve me at my current address, the previous address is not my residence. On XX/XX/XXXX I started noticing that my paycheck was being garnished without any knowledge or notice, so i called Jeffersons capital system and wanted to settle the debt. On XX/XX/XXXX we agreed that if i pay and make half of the payment they would initially stop the garnishment, its XX/XX/XXXX now and my wages is still being garnished. I've called and i gave them my work fax number for them to send the judgement to stop the garnishment. They have not done so. XXXX the manager there and XXXX as well lied and say that they would try to fax it as soon as possible but my job still has not received any mail or fax regarding this matter. I have satisfy the amount owed and more but they have not send my job the final judgement yet. I cant pay my bills, my son needs school clothes and materials to start the year.

On XX/XX/2019, I tried to re-open a XXXX XXXX account because I was not happy with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. When I tried, XXXX XXXX told me that I had a {$890.00} balance/debt to pay before I can re-open a XXXX XXXX account XXXX I made the payments in ( 3 ) three separate transactions because I did not have the full {$890.00} available in my bank account. After the transaction, the {$890.00} was successfully paid AND I was able to re-open my XXXX XXXX account, which is still my current cell phone service provider. XXXX still sold the account totaling exactly what I already paid, {$890.00} to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC and it showed on my credit report in Collections, which destroyed my credit. I have proof, ( 3 ) separate emails from XXXX XXXX emailing me of the successful payments totaling {$890.00} on XX/XX/2019. I have also contacted XXXX XXXX numerous times to get some assistance in removing the collections entirely because it is FALSE. Every time I called, the representative would " make note '' and have their supervisor or a representative from a different department call me the following business day. I NEVER received a phone call in response to my claim.

I received a debt collection letter via mail from Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC on XX/XX/2019 claiming that I owe {$400.00} from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I responded to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC on XX/XX/2019 disputing the debt and requesting proper validation, such as the original instrument of indebtedness. Tracking via USPS certified mail confirms that Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC received my letter requesting validation on XX/XX/2019 at XXXX XXXX, but Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC did not respond. I sent Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC a follow up letter on XX/XX/2019 with USPS certified mail tracking in regards to not responding to my validation letter, as well as an FDCPA reminder for false reporting.

****SEE ATTACHMENTS THAT SHOWS THAT IT WAS GOING TO BE DELETED REMOVED FROM MY CREDIT REPORT**** Dear XXXX / Executive Office ; I was really shocked last week when I refreshed my credit report and noticed that the collection account from XXXX XXXX is still on my Credit Report which is hindering my score so much and stopping me to achieve my financial goals You are the ONLY one thats reporting this negative account on my credit, despite the fact that the results of investigation through Cfpb stated that they will cease and remove this account. Well, the other credit reporting agency complied and deleted from my credit immediately, however you havent removed it. I talked to a representative at your office last week, and they mentioned that I can FAX over the letter and results from Cfpb and they will remove it. Plus, how can you report incomplete, misleading information on my credit report. Its impossible that a collection account can be late and past due. Look at the picture below late 120 days, past due for {$800.00}, etc. This is a violation of my consumer rights under the provisions of FCRA, and Im demanding an immediate deletion from my credit report. DELETE!

Again, Your statement provided totally goes against the Consumer Law. I also have spoken with Jefferson Capital Systems and they're totally clueless on whats going on with this account. These guys can not provide me with any details and was very rude and told me that I need to call you guys and hung up on me. I am requesting the phone conversation from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC in regards to my account. I am requesting from XXXX the recorded phone conversation from that day of payment of {$330.00}. AGAIN I AM REQUESTING THE PHONE CONVERSATION which was stated to me over the phone that it was being recorded. ALSO I am requesting a written consent that was signed by myself ( XXXX XXXX ) that would give you guys ( XXXX ) the legal right to report this. I never signed consent and never gave you guys consent. Per CRA guidelines, this is absolutely illegal and should be removed from my credit report altogether. ALSO I am requesting a copy of the contract that was sent to JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS LLC WITH MY ACCOUNT DETAILS, SHOWING THAT THIS ACCOUNT IS NOW WITH JCS. I have spoken with them several times and they can not provide me with any information. Thank you.

In 2011, I first noticed that a XXXX XXXX bill appeared on my credit report when I attempted to purchase my first vehicle. According to my credit report at the time, someone by the name of XXXX XXXX, who resided in XXXX, California at the time, had used my Social Security number as a cosigner for her to get a XXXX phone. This charge had fallen off of my credit report in XXXX timeframe, however, when my husband and I recently wanted to look into buying our first home, the credit repair company we worked with pulled what they called a deep dive report that they claimed will pull anything lingering on our report, even if it has fallen off. It was at that time that the XXXX XXXX bill came back onto my credit report as if it was a brand new collection account. Considering how long I have been disputing this account and have proved that it is not mine over and over again and XXXX and the creditors continue to sell the debt and ruined my credit is unacceptable. I need someone to intervene and get them to stop. It is {$700.00} of debt that is not mine, and I refuse to pay for someone elses debt, and they should be going after the person who owns the account, not me.

My latest attempt was made in XX/XX/2019 by requesting in writing to all three credit bureaus that this debt claimed by Jefferson Capital System be physically verified and that I receive a copy of any and all signed consumer I have on numerous occasions ask for verification on this account that is showing on my credit report for contracts, all original documents in reference to the account, a valid proof of chain of assignment and sum certain showing the total history of the account in which I have received nothing but a statement which only shows an amount due of a total of {$650.00}. I have sent letters to both the creditor as well as the credit bureaus asking for the above information and have yet to receive anything. I did receive a letter from each credit bureau stating the account was " verified '' and on XX/XX/2019 I reached out to all 3 companies ; XXXX, XXXX, as well as XXXX, stated that they are only responsible for submitting the request electronically and then it is up to the creditor to respond if it is valid. I find it very upsetting that all 3 credit bureaus are able to report this on my credit report and no one will show proof of the account.

I had an auto loan through an auto finance company back in XXXX. In XXXX without my knowledge they sold my car loan to a debt collection agency. They also sent a company to try and repossess my vehicle, and they did and I was not even behind in payments. I had to pay {$60.00} to go get my vehicle back for the mistake they made. All of this with no paperwork and no proof that I owed this debt collecting company anything. I have been paying this company for four years now and called in XX/XX/XXXX to find out how much I owed and they said I still had to pay until end of XXXX. I in turn sent a letter notarized to them which they received on XX/XX/XXXX and they had 30 days to respond with any billing statements. I wanted an audit of my account. I have heard nothing from the debt collection agency since then. They keep transferring me to different departments and do not give me an answer. I have my paperwork from the original finance company and I was supposed to be done with my payments early this year. I would like to get the title to my vehicle as soon as I can. I am afraid this company will try and take more money from me. Please help me with this situation.

I was contacted in I believe XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX or I may have noticed it on my credit report, I promptly contacted XXXX and had to fill out a Fraud Packet and file a police report. This was removed from my credit. The account was opened in XXXX Florida and they would not even tell me the type of credit it was I assume cable or wireless due to it being XXXX. Fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX and I am then contacted by a credit agency and once again dispute the validity of the debt. It was once again removed from credit. I wake up this Sunday morning and once again it has been added to my credit from a new credit agency. Not only are they reporting this account but have the account as being opened in XX/XX/XXXX when in fact I called and spoke with a customer Service rep at XXXX XXXX they told me it was the same XX/XX/XXXX account. How many times can this be sold out of different companies to ruin my credit? I have credit protection and fraud alerts everywhere and it doesn't seem to matter. And this last agency never even contacted me prior to adding this to my report and specifically in the disclaimer told me they would sue me. How do I stop this nightmare?

A company by the name of XXXX XXXX, is trying to collect funds from me and I have no business with them. I did not no who they were until I was served a summons and complaint, I then responded and they stated they were trying to collect a debt possibly owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I then sent a request for verification and Validation of the debt to their attorneys office ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). They only sent me computer generated copies of statements that may or may not be accurate. We had a court hearing XX/XX/2018 and we are to return to court for possible trial, in the near future. The attorney sent from the law firm tried to get me to sign off and admit to a debt that I don't owe. She also seem to think my wife and I were not able to understand she was representing XXXX XXXX and she was not the collections agency, but the law firm. XXXX XXXX is trying to get a judgment against me and ruin my credit. Unfortunately for them I will fight this to the end and if this ends up in a much higher court so be it!! They go around purchasing debts that don't belong to them, for near to nothing prices and expecting to collect large amounts of funds, not owed to them.

On XX/XX/XXXX I paid a few bills on my credit report, one for XXXX XXXX with an outstanding balance ( Confirmation : XXXX ) for {$1300.00}. About a week later I signed up with XXXX XXXX to help repair my credit. After a month I noticed that charge was still on my report but being reported by Jefferson Capitol. I called them to try to give them the confirmation # and the gentleman yelled at me that " You shouldn't have paid XXXX that should have gone to us '' He told me to send over my bank statement that I had paid this so I did. Fast forward months in time and I'm still no closer to getting this taken off. I've called XXXX and Jefferson Capitol multiple times to try to get this resolved. The collection agency keeps telling me that it doesn't matter if I've paid XXXX that I still owe them another {$1300.00}. I've since sent all documentation to XXXX XXXX to send disputes to XXXX XXXX and XXXX but even if it's removed it could still show as something owed. I was told to contact you to hopefully get this taken care of. I'm trying to build my credit to help my kids go to college and I'm running out of time. Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.

I first contacted Jefferson Capital Systems XX/XX/2020 about an inaccurate and unverified account from XXXX for {$640.00} I saw on my credit reports. I included the account number and what was listed on my credit reports by their company. They responded on XX/XX/2020 sending me a totally unrelated bill that is not listed on my credit reports at all, and had none of the information or account numbers I sent them that they are reporting to the credit bureaus. I again sent another certified letter XX/XX/2020, telling them they sent an unrelated account as validation, again listed the account I was disputing as shown by their company on my credit reports and asked them to remove the inaccuracies as they could not verify it. Jefferson Capital Systems responded on XX/XX/2020 sending yet again another bill that had no identifying information to link it to me, and a bill thats not even in my name, nor bears my signature, or verifiable proof as a means of validation. They are continuing to report this unverified account on my credit reports. I have also asked for their bonding agency information so I can file suit, and they have ignored that request as well.

Please be advised this is my SECOND WRITTEN REQUEST after the initial 30 business youve FAILED to respond. The unverified items listed below remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. I am prepared to take legal action. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify that this information is mine and is correct, NOT JUST BY A COLLECTION AGENCY OR COMPANIES STANDARD, YOU MUST PROPERLY VALIDATE THESE THINGS AS THE FURNISHER OF MY CREDIT REPORT. You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) and under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified. The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me for negligent noncompliance ( Section 617 ) if you fail to comply. I am a litigious consumer and fully intend on pursuing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA. I demand the following accounts be verified or deleted immediately.

I received correspondence on behalf of a collection agency named XXXX XXXX. According to them, I had an outstanding balance of {$1900.00} that was previously owned by XXXX. I contacted them on XX/XX/23, and the representative I spoke with informed me that the debt was tied to the phone number XXXX. I am positive that I have never been associated with said number, so I went through the trouble of filing an police report and so on. I called XXXX XXXX back on XX/XX/23, to obtain information on where to submit a copy of my police report in order to initiate a dispute. The XXXX XXXX Representative, XXXX, informed me that per their system, there was a " XXXX XXXX '' order in place, and that the debt was erroneous, and is not valid. He also shared that the debt would not be reported to the credit bureaus, and that I was no longer financially liable for the amount they were trying to previously collect. I requested a statement in writing confirming what XXXX shared, but he insisted that he was not able to do so per company policy. I wanted to bring this to the CFPB 's attention in the event XXXX XXXX attempts collecting debt from me again in the future.

XX/XX/2022, this account was discussed with XXXX and with a complete breakdown with the representative named XXXX XXXX, it was confirmed the amount of XXXX was an excessive overcharge. The representative provided me with an amount of XXXX being owd. The reporting amount is invalid, the date of the contract is incorrect and the phone numbers they included on the bill were a merge with a family member 's account in error. In XX/XX/2022, I spoke with Jefferson Capital, who were not able to validate the account with the original documents showing this account was opened by me and the amounts were owed and charged for me. According to FCRA, XXXX Jefferson Capital violated by 1. Mixing up one 's person information with another 's because of similar name. 2. Provided creditors inaccurate financial information about me. 3. Failed to send me notifications about this account and reporting to the Bureaus without notification. For the past 2 years, I have fought with creditors providing inaccurate information, all while recovering and receiving therapy from my military injury. These businesses have an awful way of dealing with Vets and Military staff.

The third collection notice Account # XXXX dated XX/XX/2023 in the amount of {$170.00}. I called Jefferson Capital on XXXX XXXX and explained that the charges are not mine, they stated that they would raise a dispute for me concerning theses charges. I then waited 30 days and checked my credit report and the three charges were still being reported as delinquent and in collections. I then called Jefferson Capital again in late XXXX and explained that the charges were still showing on my credit report, and again they said they would take care of this. XXXX I checked my credit report again and the charges were still being reported. I then Called XXXX they stated that they could not find any accounts for my name or even with the account numbers I provided from Jefferson Capital.

I received a letter from debt collector, XXXX. I called XXXX because I am in complete disagreement that I owe any debt. XXXX told me that they had no information regarding the debt other than they were directed to collect the debt. The debt description was " XXXX '' on the letter, I called XXXX to research and understand the debt. XXXX went through their records and found that I have NEVER owed any money to XXXX, there has never been any debt owed from me to XXXX. So I called Jefferson Capital who claimed to have purchased the debt from XXXX and then redirected the debt to XXXX. Jefferson Capital was adamant that I owed them the debt and that regardless what XXXX said, my debt had been sold to Jefferson Capital. Jefferson Capital claims they sent me a letter in XX/XX/2021 to collect the debt and I never responded. So now in XX/XX/2021 I received a letter from XXXX to collect the debt. I immediately reached out to XXXX to understand what the debt was all about. I completely disagree with this debt and collection - I have no credit with XXXX, never have. I believe Jefferson Capital is acting fraudulently claiming I owe debt that I do not.

My information includes a false " also known as '' name of XXXX XXXX XXXX and an address of XXXX XXXX, XXXX, MI XXXX both of which were added to my personal data without my knowledge. Neither the name of the address is true. I believe a debt collection co, probably did this as I have received notices from XXXX XXXX, XXXX as well as XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX stating that I have a delinquent utility bill with XXXX XXXX in XXXX, MI. All of the above is false, and I believe I am being targeted because of my age, XXXX years old and retired. XXXX XXXX has 1013 complaints against them from BBB and several of the complaints when read, are so similar to my situation that one has to believe that this is a scam that has succeeded. Even the same utility company is named, XXXX XXXX in several of the complaints so XXXX and/or XXXX likely bought a list of delinquent accounts from XXXX for pennies on the dollar and are now out trying to collect anything they can. Why else would the first notice offer to settle a supposed debt of {$970.00} for a quick fee of {$240.00}? How can XXXX allow false information to be added to my profile without my being informed?

Jefferson Capital has tried numerous times in the past to collect a debt that I did not owe. After years of trying to get them to remove this from my credit report and cease collection, they finally did so. However, they have tried sending collection letters to me and to an address that I have not lived at for over 20 years trying to collect money that they insist I owe them. The debt itself was already over 10 year old, but they changed the dates to say it was from 2015, which is a lie. However, per XXXX XXXX. Laws 600.5801 et seq., this debt is already past the statute of limitations even with the new date falsified by Jefferson Capital. They are breaking the law in at least two ways : 1 ) Attempting to collect a debt that is already past the statute of limitations 2 ) Illegal contact of someone, other than myself, in an attempt to collect this false dept. I was embarrassed to be contacted by this person from a former address that now thinks I do not pay my debts. Based on federal law, I am due compensation for these acts. I would like to settle out of court, if possible, but am already in contact with legal council on this matter.

Jefferson Capital LLC added a collection on my credit reports without my knowledge and in doing so on XX/XX/2021. This collection violated the FDCPA Collection Practice by placing a collection account on my credit report without sending a letter to me. I request that Jefferson Capitol verify the following information. 1. Full original Account Number 2. Date original Account was opened 3. Any written agreements between myself and the original creditor stating this debt is owed 4. Full account summary and itemized calculation of alleged debt 5. Date of the first delinquency 6. Dates and times of any phone calls made and to what number in attempt to contact me concerning the alleged debt before it was reported to an agency, and so proving that these calls were made in the times governed by FDCPA law. If Jefferson Capital Systems is unable to provide the above identifying account information, this account must be deleted from all CRAs. Jefferson Capital Systems LLC also failed to follow FDCPA by not sending a letter giving the consumer time to dispute or validate the alleged debt within the allowed 30-day time frame that is allowed by law.

Was informed by XXXX that company sold debt to Jefferson Capital. A debt validation letter was sent to this XXXX explaining that Consumer was the Original Creditor and to produce a contract between Consumer and them that gives them grounds for collecting a debt form Consumer ( U.S vs Throckmarton, 98 US 61, at pg. 65 ) Consumer has no contract with this thirds party debt collector. XXXX continues to violate FCRA 15 USC 1692g by ignoring my right to privacy and continues to furnish and Report Old Information. XXXX failed to let Consumer know how much the debt was sold for, and if the debt was assigned to a third party, Jefferson Capital and the Consumer have a right to know what their commission. A Cease and Desist Letter was also sent to XXXX 15 USC 1692C ( b ). Consumer is not allowed to have or purchase Consumer information without consent. This is an infringement upon Consumer Right To Privacy. XXXX states " This is an attempt to collect a debt and any information obtained will be used to do so ''. 15 USC 1692e ( 11 ).

Mail was delivered to my home on XX/XX/20, stating a debt collection attempt for The XXXX XXXX from Jefferson Capital The debt was for XXXX, I called The XXXX XXXX and was told there was no account or record of enrollment information with the school in my name. I found The XXXX XXXX website online to call them, and then called Jefferson Capital, the same day, ( XXXX ) to inform them that I never attended The XXXX XXXX or had any accounts or enrollment with them, and verified that fact by calling The XXXX XXXX and speaking to one of the employees there. l have received a second letter from Jefferson Capital on XX/XX/20, requesting for me to complete a ID Theft Affirmation document requesting my Personal Identifiable Information in a dispute statement document or forward a copy of my dispute to them. I have now filed a complaint with the CFPB to to have Jefferson contact The XXXX XXXX and cease their collection attempts against m XXXX XXXX, and prior to Jefferson Capital 's mail on XX/XX/20 never spoken to these companies. I had informed Jefferson Capital of my intent to file a complaint with the FTC. And this would be that complaint.

XXXX XXXX has an account in my name that was not opened or used by me and was not authorized by me. I do n't even know how they can do this. I have ALWAYS had XXXX for the last 14 years. My phone number has never changed. Nothing was sent to my house as a bill. No email to inform me or I would 've notified XXXX immediately. It did n't even show up on my credit report until it was derogatory! It 's very poor business practice to allow a person to create a fradulent account and not investigate their credentials. I did not sign ANYTHING. I do n't know who did this or even how someone could possibly do this. This is not my account or bill. It should be removed immediately. It 's for {$2200.00}. It says XXXX XXXX in collections by XXXX XXXX. It was opened XX/XX/2015. Account # XXXX. I have disputed twice with XXXX and it says meets FCRA requirements! I do n't see HOW a fradulent charge can meet ANY requirements. I am extremely disappointed that XXXX XXXX could continue to charge me for this. They definitely dropped the ball on their end by not notifying me by mail, email, or my XXXX phone number of someone 's attempt at fraud involving me.

I had an account with XXXX XXXX that went to collections many years ago. I paid the company who obtained the account. Jefferson Capital Systems, Inc. They informed me that they would notify XXXX that the account was paid in full so XXXX could then report to the credit bureau that the account was paid. Instead, they never reported the pay off to XXXX so it is still sitting in my credit report as delinquent. This needs to be updated as it is the only thing showing negative on my credit report and I am in the process of trying to buy a home. I have been fighting with this company for almost 2 years to report this to XXXX. I have submitted a complaint to you previously in regards to XXXX but I was directed to the FDIC because they are a XXXX. I filed a complaint with them to no avail as they directed me back to XXXX. I am being sent in circles. This needs to be addressed and fixed. Under the fair reporting act I have a right to have accurate information reported on my credit report. I don't know what else to do or who to turn to at this point. Jefferson Capital Systems , Inc. will not do as they promised, nor will they help me with this.

XXXX XXXX purchased my account from XXXX on XXXX XXXX 2017 and did n't contact me once and then XXXX XXXX 2017 I received a notification from my credit report that my score had fallen due to a debt collector. I had never heard from them nor received any warnings. XXXX XXXX XXXX showed up on my credit report one day without any notification. I called in to see what the problem was and was told that they had not attempted to contact me due to an address error? So instead of looking into this, they notified the credit bureaus with a negative file. I attempted to contact them multiple times and without fail the women on the phone told me there was nothing I could do and that even if the amount was disputed, they still would n't contact the credit bureau to notify them of wrongdoing on their part. I 'm aware that there needs to be a notification of at least 30 days before this happens, which I never received a single one. The folks on the phone were incredibly rude and refused to help me with the incorrect negative marks on my credit file. I have also read that they practice debt collection in states that they are not licensed in.

This debt buying company, Jefferson Capital, recently added a derogatory account to my credit report. All three bureaus, in fact. They say I have an {$870.00} debt with a XXXX mastercard dating back to XXXX. Upon checking my credit scores, no debt with this information appeared before XXXX. The company reportedly bought it back in XXXX of XXXX. I received notice of a debt collection on my credit report on XXXX of XXXX. I quickly started disputes with XXXX and XXXX, XXXX did not show a new mark but did drop my score XXXX points. I reported a fraudulent act to these bureaus and was told it would be 30 days. I reached out to this parasite company and told them that I never had a verve mastercard and that this card had been fraudulently opened without my permission. 7 years ago, according to them. They said they'd mark it as fraudulent. I have NEVER had a XXXX XXXX, I would think the proof would be as simple as the credit bureau checking through my information and seeing that that card has never reported on my credit report. Surely, if I defaulted on a credit card, I would have heard about it before 7 years had passed, right?

My complaint is with XXXX XXXX and jefferson capital system a debt collector. # 1 on XX/XX/2019 i like i do several times a month for the past two years logged on to check my credit score. When i checked my score i see these guys jefferson capital systems have a collection on my report from a old XXXX bill that # 2 should have never been on my report since prior to all this XXXX XXXX XXXX bought me out of my contract with XXXX. Since then though do to a lay off / rehire reason my score originally dropped i have hired XXXX XXXX which im not to pleased with these guys timing and efforts either but nonetheless they did have this false information removed off my report for id say a year or little less until XX/XX/2019. So how is it that any of this is possible to begin with then after its removed just how do you think its right to come back to ruin someones credit a year later. I have disputed this and honestly im sick of dealing with all this when i admit i maxed out some cards due to a lay-off because of being holidays and childrens bdays but ive not in no way ran up a XXXX $ fee with these guys for it to be on my report. Thank you

There is a debt collection company called Jefferson Capital that has put an unpaid collection on my personal credit bureau. It appears that they are trying to collect on behalf of XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX has tried to do this to me several times in the past and can not show me where I ever had a past due or unpaid account with them. I had to call them on the phone and have even gone into their retail store but no one can show me this past due record. I believe someone fraudulently used my name because I was a past victim of identity theft ( I had some checks stolen from my apartment in 2006 ). However XXXX still can not provide this documentation even though they try to collect from me every 2 to 3 years for this fraudulent record. The last time I had a XXXX account was in 2006 and it was paid and closed. XXXX is trying to collect a phantom or fraudulent debt from 15 years ago! I have been out of work since the pandemic started and this is once again affecting my credit score. Also, it is the only derogatory credit that I have had in 20 years! Please have them cease this and remove the collection from my credit file. Thank you.

It was required for me to pay the FINAL BILL with XXXX XXXX if I wanted to open my new service with XXXX XXXX. This transaction was completed at the store. It was confirmed with me and my husband during the transaction all was well. XXXX received confirmation from XXXX and my new account with XXXX was opened and completed. A year later I started receiving threating mail and calls for me to pay {$1100.00} to XXXX XXXX. After several long wait times and transfers to various customer agents and their managers nothing was resolved. I proved to them the final bill was paid at the store because I could see the deduction from my checking account. My goal is to have funds refunded to me for the stress and embarassment to me for this ongoing issue and the hits to my credit report.

In XXXX, when the loans came due we used forbearance as our only option due to our financial situation. Around XXXX, We were informed through the mail that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX purchased the private student loan debt in which they aggressive sought repayment by filing for a judgement against us. They were informed through the court system that my husband was XXXX XXXX and they still pursued the judgement. They also claimed that the debt we owed was well over {$200000.00}. Making any form of payment more than what my husband and I could afford. I found out XXXX XXXX XXXX had my bank account information and I was afraid of them freezing my accounts which would make it impossible to take care of our children therefore we are paying the loan through the watchful eye of Chapter XXXX bankruptcy. Do not take out private students loans! If you become XXXX the debt collection agencies do not care and will aggressively pursue you in court and ruin your life!

Jefferson Capital is claiming I owe money for a XXXX bill, but my XXXX account was paid in full when I closed it several years back. I also disputed the date that they reported because it is much more recent than the account I held at XXXX. They lied in their response and stated that they can re-age a debt whenever they collect on it, which I know is illegal. If they refuse to remove this false collection, they need to at the very least reflect the date of the alleged default correctly. They can't lie and tell me that they choose the date. What is my recourse for this and why was this statement by them not investigated? Are you not supposed to protect the consumer? They need proof that I owe this money and a correct date to go with it. In the mail I received, they only showed me a front page of a supposed bill ( with no transaction detail or ANYTHING- just a total amount ) and the date on my credit report does not reflect the bill date at all. This would be a false debt validation. Additionally, this letter was sent XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I stopped using XXXX years before that - when I lived in XXXX. This is totally bogus.

At the beginning of last year, I had my credit pulled for a pre-qualification for a loan. It came back that I had a collection account with XXXX XXXX that I was unaware of. I contacted the company that was handling the debt, asked for validation, and it was removed off of my credit report. It then was resold to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2018 and reappeared on my credit for {$460.00}. It is the only negative collection account on my report, and as I previously stated I had no knowledge of the account at all. I have tried to reach out to the company about having the account removed, and every time I called I was spoken to extremely rudely and they demanded that I pay 70 % of the debt to have it settled. The problem with that is that it will still report negatively on my report, and the debt is not mine to begin with. I even offered a smaller amount in exchange for a Pay to Delete agreement just to get rid of it because I am XXXX XXXX military and I am trying to buy a house. They were nothing but rude every single time I spoke with them, and I refuse to deal with them any longer. I just want the debt gone and off of my report.

This company has done nothing but harass me over a debt with XXXX they believe I owe. I got a new XXXX, had the plan for a month and got the shut off email ( which I still have and will attach- notice the year, its XXXX ). One month of service with XXXX just wasnt affordable for me and I closed the account. I got countless intimidating letters from attorneys threatening to sue me. Ive been dealing with this company textbook harassing me but now this, its just the straw that broke the camels back. They put actual lies on my credit report, under MY name. All of a sudden the account is open? HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO CLOSE IT. Not to mention its a completely different year as well. I have disputed this collection on my credit report so many times and I know Im not being treated fairly- nothing is being done. I refuse to sit here and let this bully of a company put literal lies about me. Also shame on XXXX and XXXX, who couldnt investigate this effectively the first time. The bottom line is they turned my service off a month after I got the plan and continued to charge me month after month for service I was not receiving.

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention some errors that I have discovered on my credit report. As per consumer laws, it is crucial that all information reported is accurate and correct. I have previously informed your company about these inaccuracies, and I am pleased to inform you that the item in question has been successfully removed from one of my credit reports. However, it still remains on the other two reports, namely XXXX and XXXX. I kindly request that you promptly delete or correct this information on all three credit reports to ensure consistency and accuracy. It is important to note that credit plays a vital role in the purchasing process these days, and these errors have caused me a considerable amount of distress. I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter. Please provide me with an update on the progress made in resolving this issue. Should you require any further information or documentation from me, please do not hesitate to let me know. Thank you for your understanding and assistance in rectifying this matter. I look forward to a speedy resolution.

I was victim of identity theft as a result of being homeless and did not have a physical address in 2012. Numerous accounts were open without my permission. XXXX/XXXX calls and harass me daily for that unknown debt. I explained the ACCOUNT is FRAUDULANT and not mine. They sent me some billing info with incorrect addresses and I explained are not mines. I was also told by the credit bureaus that my personal data was breached from the credit bureaus and I am still fighting that. I hired a credit repair company to help me with these disputes, as I am new to this. I also sent a copy of the FTC and police report to XXXX back on XX/XX/XXXX and they still have not been been able to verify/ validate this debt is mine. They are not coorporating and states that they are willing to take settlements. Now I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX stating that the account was bought out by them. I filed an FTC and police report with my local police department. I don't know what else to do so I am finally coming to you guys for some guidance please and to file a complaint in regards to unfair and illegal practice by both parties..

I have had a active XXXX account for the past 12 years and do not own anything on my account, and I am in good standing with XXXX. I informed them that the debt was not mine and that I was in good standing with XXXX, they tried to tell me I was in error, and tried to direct me to a 3rd party website to show me that I somehow owed XXXX. I offered to pull up my XXXX account but they insisted that I use their website. They then told me that this debt was from 3 years ago, but after I informed them that no changes were made to the account in that time frame, they changed their story and told me that this was a debt bought from another debt collector 3 years ago. They were not able to tell me when this debt was from, the account number, or what the original amount owed was. The rep would not give me any name except for 'XXXX ' and was very rude. He asked for a lot of my personal information that he should have had if this was my debt, but i did not tell him my social, or XXXX account number even though he asked for it.

Opened the card in XXXX, went to collections, paid the full XXXX $ due- XXXX XXXX knew it was paid and the debt collection agency Jefferson Capital , put two collections on my credit, that were over with. I disputed both one for {$590.00} and one for {$660.00} in XXXX, it came back and they deleted it from my credit report. But it still remains on there, and a few weeks ago the one for {$590.00}, itll be falling off in XXXX anyways because it will be 7 years. But they inaccurately put it on my credit and said I t was opened 4 months ago and was seriously delinquent, but never did i receive a notice or phone call saying I had a debt. But it was paid back years ago, and so was the other one. {$590.00} collection by the same Jefferson capital, was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. And they have it saying it doesnt fall off until XXXX. I have disputed this and it was 100 % inaccurate. As soon as I started to find a mortgage loan they come back to my life and say I owe this. And it should be illegal to dropping my credit score and making it look like I have derogatory marks with them on my credit report. They ruined my loan.

Notice Of Cease & Desist Account # XXXX This is a notice to cease & desist. Jefferson Capital Systems LLC has violated my rights according to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 604, Permissible purposes of consumer reports { 15 USC, 1681b }. You guys are practicing illegal debt collection practice. A debt collector is those who regularly seek to collect debts. I am the original creditor/consumer, in order for a consumer reporting agency to add anything that must get my permission to do so and i didnt give you guys permission. I define myself as a natural person and not a corporation therefore, I have the right to defend myself and tell you guys what to put on my consumer report and what not to. Also, 15 usc 1602 ( p ), I did not authorize you to get my information. I am demanding that you guys stop illegally reporting to all consumer reporting agencies and all forms of communication. Take this off of my consumer reports today. This is an alleged debt I am not paying anything. This is the first step of litigation. So if you don't honor this cease & desist and honor my demands I will pursue litigation.

XXXX XXXX XXXX is trying to say that I owe on a military loan that I took out in 2017 from a place called XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX buys bankruptcy claims, according to their website, and I have NEVER filed for bankruptcy. Two, any military personal loans that I have gotten was from a different company and showed paid off in full on my credit report. I have never received any sort of communication from this company, just that I showed up on my credit report a few weeks back. I disputed it and it did not get removed. I am in the process of reaching out to XXXX XXXX XXXX to get some type of paperwork that will prove I have never had an account with them and submit it with my dispute. I was working on trying to get my credit score up in order to purchase a home and this company has really hurt my score. I will NOT pay a debt that is not owed. Also, if what they are saying is true, then why did it JUST hit my account, even though it's never been on there from the other company or them. This company may be a legitimate company but they are trying to commit fraud and collect money that is not owed.

On XXXX/XXXX/XXXX I made contact with Jefferson Capital LLC located at XXXX, MN XXXX regarding a collections account that they are reporting to my credit report. I spoke with a representative named XXXX with ID # of XXXX, after explaining that the account they are attempting to collect on was opened in XXXX and closed in XXXX ( Jefferson Capital LLC is reporting the account was opened in XXXX ) I questioned why it shows it was opened in XXXX. XXXX informed me that XXXX is when they recieved the file and could report that date legally. I then asked if they report the file being opened in XXXX that would mean it would stay on my credit report until XXXX instead of XXXX ( if showed reporting from XXXX ). She then told me that I was correct and it will continue to show as a new account from XXXX then would remain until XXXX. When I advice her that I think that is illegal she told me it can be done because that is when they received the account. If this was the case and a new company bought the debt from Jefferson Capital LLC and placed a new open date, the debt would never be removed from my credit report.

At the time that this account was opened on my credit profile, I was not given prior notice that such action was going to take place. The last I had known, that particular account had been closed! Upon seeing it newly opened on my account, I only realized after doing some research that it was related to my past closed account with XXXX XXXX. My last known notification was around XX/XX/2019, asking for about {$1000.00} to settle the account. At the time I was on XXXX XXXX without pay and could not afford it. Shortly after, about 4 months later, while still on XXXX XXXX I further experienced hardship by then being placed on furlough from my place of work due to the Covid-19 pandemic. So in the midst of all of this, the newly opened account popped up on my credit profile without prior given notice and when I researched and called, that is when I discovered that a new company called Jefferson Capital had acquired the account and was asking around about {$1500.00} to settle the account. I tried explaining to them both my situation and disposition but they were unwilling to accept any amount less.

XXXX XXXX XXXX has repeatedly tried to sue me for old debts that I can prove that I paid. In XXXX they sued me and I won the case. This second attempt to sue me was not done properly. First they called me at least 5 to 7 times a day. In XX/XX/XXXX I contacted their office to ascertain why they were calling this number again and they claimed it was still in their system. It was during that conversation they claimed they would send out documents stating that I owed money. I never received anything in the mail or in person. On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted their office after receiving a Judgement letter from the State of New York. Ms. XXXX stated that I was served, and papers were given to a family member. This is not true. I was never served and I live alone. I feel as though this law firm is harassing me for old debts that has been charged off and every method was done to pay it off. I have been in tough with the original owners of the debt. The account was closed and reported to the IRS of which I paid taxes. What they are doing is not legal and now I have a judgement against me, and I must defend my case.

I have been trying to resolve this issue since getting notice that it was on my credit file. An account from XXXX XXXX for over {$2000.00} is in my name. Now I have never had a XXXX XXXX account Ive been with T-Mobile for well over 7+ years. I notified Jefferson Capital systems to send me the deb collection in writing so I could take the proper steps in getting it removed. The account used my personal information but has an incorrect address. After telling that to the debt collector they told me there was nothing they could do and offered me a {$840.00} settlement amount to remove it from my credit file. I then pulled my entire credit file to find numerous incorrect addresses spellings of my name and also 2-3 filings from the same company in different amounts. I have already gone thru XXXX XXXX in terms of a dispute in the past but everytime it comes off Jefferson Capital just files another collection for the same bill. I would like to have this fraudulent account removed from my credit file. The only address that should be listed is the XXXX XXXX XXXX address. Any other address shown is incorrect.

Instead they had someone send a summons to me to appear in court. I appeared in court on the day requested to contest the account and they did not hsow up. They sent an affidavit blaming their no show on a scheduling issue. Immediately after I was summoned I sent to the court and XXXX XXXX XXXX a challenge to verify if the debit is mine but all I got was a letter with some statements and one page part of a forward flow agreement between them and " XXXX ''. To this day I have not received proof that I have opened this account such as a signature and per federal law, they should not be able to come after me for this debt if they have no proof. Attached is 5 letters. One is the letter with the entire suit package, second is the summons to appear, three is my answer in response to the matter requesting proof I opened the account, four is the court 's dismissal due to no show by plaintiff, and five is the affidavit explaining their absence.

Jefferson Capital System LLC FAILED to respond with the requested competent evidence as per FDCPA, FCRA etc. After thirty days, I sent another letter giving Jefferson Capital System LLC another opportunity to EVIDENCE the alleged debt but Jefferson Capital System LLC continuously sent prints of alleged bills, but FAILED to evidence the alleged debt. As per FTC opinion letter from Attorney XXXX XXXX XXXX, you should be aware that a printout of a bill or itemized document does not constitute verification. I then disputed the derogatory mark ( Jefferson Capital Systems ) with the Credit Bureaus. Jefferson Capital Systems was then REMOVED from my Credit Report, but IMMEDIATELY reinserted.

I quit XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. They refused to port my number over to my new carrier and charged me for 2 months thereafter when I had no cell service. Some months later, I was sent to one collection agency after another for a bill of {$100.00} that I did not owe. I'd call and explain the situation and every agency sent the " debt '' back to XXXX. This has been a continual harassment since then. Now I have Jefferson Capital LLC of XXXX XXXX, MN reporting this as a derogatory on my credit report. I called them today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and was told that they would put it into dispute but the rep there could not tell me what that meant or what would happen going forward. My XXXX score has crashed by XXXX points over this one item that is false reporting. My XXXX was XXXX and is now XXXX on XXXX. This is the only change in a while other than their usual minor blips. I pay any bills that I owe legitimately and on time. I do not, however, pay bills that I do not owe. XXXX and Jefferson Capital are responsible for damage to my credit score and my peace of mind. Three years of this harassment is just too much!

After checking my credit report on XX/XX/XXXXI noticed that there was an open collection with XXXX XXXX reporting that was opened XX/XX/XXXX. I've never had any communication with this company and there was never any communication notices made to me from this company to notify me that they were attempting to collect money from me. They have violated my consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act for withholding notices. I am entitled to notices concerning the reporting, handling and use of my credit information. Notice violations under the FCRA occur when a creditor fails to notify you when it supplies negative credit information to a Credit Reporting Agency. A creditor fails to notify you of your right to dispute inaccurate credit information. They've also are in violation due to prohibition of trying to collect on a debt that has resulted from identity theft. I would like to file a complaint to have this reporting deleted from my credit report and I would like to have this company blocked from future reporting of this account. This company has performed unethical business practices.

I contacted Jefferson Capital, I'm trying to pay off and on a debt. I was given an option to submit a " one time payment '', if I couldn't pay the above options and others. My account on the website allowed me to submit a lesser amount. I contacted Jefferson Capital to verify the option and they would not answer or confirm the accuracy of that option however it was offered to settle the debt with my own personal offer. The agent insisted I choose the other options ( higher amounts ). The agent was trying to justify and explain but he wasn't making any sense of the option. I felt he was trying to confuse me and con me into paying the other higher amounts. I told the agent I would call back, moments later, Jefferson Capitol locked me out of my account and the message said " my account in ineligible for web service '', only calling was an option. This is deceptive and unfair, now they are not allowing me to log in and view my account to make a payment. They do not want me choosing the lesser amount option and I feel they may alter my account. I took screen shots of my account and the options.

Jefferson Capitpal is in violation of the FCRA and FDCA I believe to my lawyers knowledge as well as my background involve with these laws. The company seems to have bought this debt from XXXX which has unfortunately sold them a in accurate account based or dispute with them that they refused to correct.As well This company should be reporting the first day of collection based on the info from XXXX and not showing as recent collection with them.They must report the original date of collection, Instead they are reporting it as it is recent which is causing other companies to deny credit based on there incoorect date and violation of the FCRA and FDCA.They know this hoping it will harm a consumer more by reporting false information, As well the amount is not correct and other information I am not disclosing because they should know this, instead they expect consumers to correct there mistakes for them .No attempt was ever made by them as well in neither letter or phone call which I only accept mail communications and they have failed to do so cause I could have reported this and dispute then.

On XX/XX/XXXX I requested copies of my consumer reports from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, and as I was analyzing the reports I noticed that there was a collections account from : Account # : XXXX Debt Collector : Jefferson Capital Systems XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX MN XXXX stating that I owe them an alleged debt that I have no knowledge or recollection of owing them. I was never contacted about the alleged debt, nor was notified of my right to dispute. They opened the account on XX/XX/XXXX according to XXXX, but they never notified me of my consumer rights under the FDCPA. They then reported it on XX/XX/XXXX again without notifying me or communicating through mail, email, or in person. To my understanding, after XX/XX/XXXX debt collectors are suppose to let the consumer know that they have a debt, and record any proof of non delivery to the consumer. In my case this was never done. I never had the proper opportunity to dispute the debt they say I owe. This is the reason I did not contact the company. They've violated my consumer rights under the FDCPA. So I am filing a complaint with the CFPB.

I initially made XXXX aware I had no knowledge of this account and let them know that I was on SSI XXXX and unable to even attempt to pay just to get it off my credit report. Then around after XX/XX/2019 I began receiving letters from XXXX XXXX ( at an older address of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NY XXXX ) stating that I owe the amount of {$2300.00}. I responded one time via mail declaring all that I just said here. Clearly that letter fell on deaf ears as I received 2 letters since ( to hew address of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NY XXXX ) as well as MANY phone calls ranging from XXXX to XXXX with blank or static noise filled voicemails. I feel harassed and intimidated by this company. Unfortunately, due to the financial difficulties I have being on SSI XXXX I can not do much so I am coming to you for help. All I would kindly like done is for this company to remove this so called debt, information and remarks and from my credit report and I will remove complaints I've filed with other agencies.

This is my 2nd attempt at reaching out to JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY about a fraudulent debt that they are incorrectly reporting on my credit. This incorrect reporting of this unknown collection is having a negative effect on my credit and preventing me from being a credit-worthy consumer. JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY is saying that I owe a debt, however, even after I have reached out to them, they still have not properly and correctly VALIDATED this incorrect debt that they are reporting on my credit. I am requesting that JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY provide me with the following information : What the money you say I owe is for : Please provide a copy of the signed contract Explain and show me how you calculated what you say I owe : Provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what you say I owe : Provide a verification or copy of any judgment if applicable : Identify the original creditor : Prove the Statute of Limitations has not expired on this account : Show me the you are licensed to collect in my state : Provide me with your license numbers and Registered Agent or Agent of Service

RE : Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, a debt collector I learned from viewing my credit reports that the debt collector re-aged my debt when reporting to all three credit reporting bureaus. Re-aging a debt is the act of reporting an inaccurate date of first delinquency to a credit reporting agency. According to the law, Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the date of first delinquency is shown in credit reports. Subsequent activity, such as one debt collector selling the debt to another collector, is irrelevant, particularly to the 7-year rule outlined in the FCRA. The start of the 7-year period begins at the date of first delinquency, or if no payments are made, when the first payment was due. Unscrupulous collection agencies, such as Jefferson Capital Systems, reset the date of first delinquency to stretch out how long a derogatory account appears on consumers credit report. This is illegal under the FCRA. In the case of my debt, the first date of delinquency is over five years old. Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC has reported the date of the debt as only two years old, XX/XX/2019.

I received a notice of an attempt to collect a debt from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC which is dated XX/XX/XXXX, it references that I had a XXXX XXXX account from XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX and that as of XX/XX/XXXX I owe {$840.00} but also this is the total amount of the debt. The letter states I can contact Jefferson Capital by calling or writing to them by XX/XX/XXXX to dispute all or part of the debt and in doing so they must stop collection on any amount I dispute until they send me information that shows I owe the debt. My concern as of today 's date which is XX/XX/XXXX is that upon checking my credit report with XXXX Jefferson Capital has posted this collection with XXXX and maybe the other agencies as well. The derogatory information was reported to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and today my credit score has dropped. I find this to be highly unethical on their part since they have not given me the time indicated in their notice to respond whether by writing or calling them. It is my request that they immediately remove this negative information from all XXXX credit agencies asap.

Upon review of my XXXX and XXXX credit reports in XX/XX/2019, I noticed a collection account reporting from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Account # XXXX ). I contacted the collection agency via mail in XX/XX/2019 sending them a debt validation letter. I do not have a contract with this company therefore I asked for them to show me documentation that proves that I am the party who owes this debt to them. The company responded with a generic collection letter with their company letterhead and I balance owed of {$600.00}. I never received validation of this account nor a signed contract or documentation that this account belongs to me. Since XX/XX/2019 I have sent several additional mail correspondences even offering to settle this unverified account, not acknowledging it as mine, but to have it removed from my credit report as is is affecting my credit worthiness. None of my correspondences after the companys failure to validate debt have been replaced to. I also sent disputed letters to all associated credit bureaus who have also failed to validate debt but continue to insist the debt is verified.

On XXXX XXXX my account with XXXX XXXX was officially closed. After reporting fraud MULTIPLE times and giving them all the money I physically could I was happy to see the account finally close. Then, XX/XX/2020 I receive a notification from XXXX XXXX {$2000.00} due to Jefferson Capital Systems. I was on XXXX during the time of the notification so I tried to dispute the collection. All I received is that this account falls under FCRA requirements. During this XXXX I tried complaining to XXXX through the XXXX and they replied that after they " investigated '' my account is was reported not fraud and that my account is now in the hands of Jefferson. I was finally able to save up the money to pay off this debt, but, after intense research I find out Jefferson Capital Systems is not accredited through the BBB, but on their website it says they are?!? And every review on this company is the same, all closed/ disputed XXXX XXXX accounts! I never received a letter, email, phone call or anything from Jefferson Capital Systems stating this debt is due. I can only see it on my credit reports.

I closed my XXXX XXXX account on XX/XX/XXXX after my XXXX contract expired and I moved to XXXX for better pricing and plans. XXXX sent a bill for the next billing cycle despite me closing my account. I disputed this several times with XXXX and reported XXXX to the XXXX, I have also joined class action lawsuits against XXXX as this has happened to many people over the years. I have not seen relief from either the XXXX nor the class action. XXXX maintained I owed them for the subsequent billing cycle and put negative marks on my credit for 7 years. Now that 7 years have passed, they sold the account to Jefferson Capital Systems LLC. Jefferson Capital Systems LLC is trying to collect XXXX 's debt that is 1 ) incorrect and 2 ) past 7 years old. They email and/or call me daily. I have asked them to stop contacting me via email. Per the FCRA, " consumer reporting agencies may not report outdated negative information. In most cases, a consumer reporting agency may not report negative information that is more than seven years old, or bankruptcies that are more than 10 years old. ''

I spoke with Jefferson Capital Systems LLC today XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX and stated that a debt was reported on my credit report for a debt that I am not aware of and or have never received communication regarding. I was told by a gentleman that it was a debt that I had through " XXXX XXXX '' that us from XXXX of XXXX. I again repeated that I was not aware of this debt and had no recollection of any type of purchase such as that. Beside that fact, I also asked about the statue of limitations on an age of debt and asked how a debt from XXXX is just now being put against my credit report in XXXX of XXXX. This is re-aging and is illegal. He asked if I have ever received communication regarding this debt and I stated no. He said all he could do is put a dispute note in the system and apologize for the inconvenience. He stated he would not send a debt validation letter because I am disputing but also stated that this will remain on my credit report. I feel as though this is illegal and goes against consumer rights. I am requesting that this be removed from my credit report immediately.

From XXXX to XXXX I was working at the IRS in XXXX, GA and I applied for a XXXX XXXX Credit Card which included the XXXX XXXX, which is a program that in which if you lose your job for reasons outside of your own negligence they XXXX XXXX XXXX would basically wipe out or cancel out said debt. In XXXX we were furloughed from the IRS without a return date to go back. I contacted the creditor ( XXXX XXXX ) and told them my employment situation and they requested I send in documentation regarding the IRS Furlough, my GA Unemployment Documentation as well as pay check stubs from 3-6 months prior to the Furlough taking effect. I submitted this documentation and XXXX XXXX never clarified or processed the XXXX XXXX Debt Cancellation. For years I have been disputing this error as well as submitting the same documentations I originally submitted to all 3 Credit Bureaus as well as the collection agency Jefferson Capital and to no avail they still have not removed said debt. But have managed to keep selling this debt to various collection agencies with the most recent being Jefferson Capital

On XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX MST, I attempted to contact the company XXXX XXXX about an old debt that I wanted to try and resolve. They transferred me to another one of their agencies who I tried to explain the issue to and offered a settlement of 20 % of the balance. They had already doubled the amount in fees over the last year. The agent then laughed and said they wouldnt do that. I asked to speak to a manager after realizing I was just losing my temper over the behavior of the agent. When the agent went to transfer me she called me a XXXX tool & when I asked her why, she got extremely rude and hung up on me. I called back, got another agent & immediately asked for a manager and the second agent also has rude comments. When I spoke to the manager, he didnt seem interested in resolving the issue. This collection agency should not be licensed. Just try to talk to them. I can call them and let you listen. I understand I may not have had the most pleasant response to the treatment I received but this collection agency does not want to resolve debt. They want to harass you.

This complaint is following an attempt by XXXX in collaboration with XXXX XXXX to defraud a customer for services they did not provide. I had filed a complaint against XXXX in 2022 for a full refund of the money I paid to them for service that was never received after a representative of XXXX XXXX misplaced the birth certificate of our daughter jeopardizing our planned vacation trip. To add salt to the wound, XXXX did not only refuse refunding the money we had paid to them, they are attempting to ruin my credit by sending the balance to collection. This is nothing short of a mean and heartless set of individuals out to rob united states citizens of their hard earned money and credibility. XXXX, through a collection agency known as JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYST, reported a balance of {$780.00} after withholding over {$1200.00} that should be refunded. This credit reporting has caused damage to my credit score and it is affecting me negatively which goes to buttress the reason for filing this complaint as this is a mean-spirited move by uplift and all involved to further ruin my credit.

I am having trouble believing that an investigation was done regarding an account I disputed with the credit bureaus. There was a personal statement on my credit report acknowledging that the account was disputed, but I have yet to receive anything validating this account. The account that I am requesting to be deleted is JEFFERSON CAPITAL. I've never had an account with this company. The original creditor is not listed on my credit report, so I am asking for the deletion of this account. Another report lists a different company as the original creditor which I have already set up payment plans so I am confused as to why Jefferson Capital is reporting anything. The balance is not even the correct amount that is showing on my credit report. I am demanding the removal of this account until further investigation is done. Please provide the original contract where it includes JEFFERSON CAPITAL as the company to remit payment to. Also inform me of the amount of which the debt was purchased. If you can not provide this information, please remove this permanently from my credit report.

Since XX/XX/XXXX, I've gotten calls from phone number XXXX once a day, every weekday morning from about XXXX to XXXX am. Caller ID displays XXXX XXXX '. I rarely pick up the phone and no message is ever left. On the rare occasions I've picked up the phone without saying anything myself, there is nothing but dead air on the line. Based on the pattern of these calls, I strongly suspect that the calls are coming from a debt collection agency. When I XXXX the number, many complaints mention Jefferson Capital Systems, a debt collection agency. However, all of the complaints against the company are more than 2 years old. I have absolutely no unpaid debts of any sort. My mortgage is paid off, credit card balances, utilities, insurance payments etc, are all automatically debited in full each month from my bank checking account. In addition, my credit scores from various sources are consistently above 800, with a completely clean credit record. Since I have no debt problem, I have no intention of personally interacting with the source of these calls. I just want the calls to stop.

In 2014 XXXX cell phones were sent to me, that I had not requested from XXXX. They did not allow mw to return these XXXX phones and wanted payment, which I said was not going to happen. They started a collection process in 2014, and I never paid a single thing to them on this account, and it was a constant harassment process from the collection agency, Jefferson Capital. Recently they fraudulently started another attempt to collect a debt from me on this old account which has been eight years from the first attempt, trying to make it appear as a new collection when in fact its more than eight years old. I have correspondence from those old collection efforts and I never paid a thing, because I never requested the phones in the first place. I still have the unused phones and XXXX willing to return them, but have no idea how to do so. Let me be clear the phones were never activated or turned on, they are still in the original boxes. Trying to regurgitate an old account as new should be criminal. I want this removed from my credit report, please help me get this accomplished.

This is a debt collection in the amount of XXXX This account is does not belong to me. They claim the original account was XXXX XXXX. I have contacted XXXX XXXX in XXXX when this amount first appeared on my credit report. There is no record of a debt under my social security number. Furthermore, I filed a dispute with all three credit bureaus in XXXX via certified copy letters. The charge/account was found to be an error. The accounts were removed within 2 months. In XXXX the charge reappeared on my credit report as Jefferson Capital. I have made repeated attempts to notify this collection company that the charge had been investigated and does not belong on my report. The call center agents have not provided any documentation that would show proof this account is linked to my social security #. This type of erroneous reporting is a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practice Act. The fact that this account has been single reason for the delay of my mortgage preapproval letter since XXXX of XXXX exemplifies how this reporting system violates customers civil right as well.

On XX/XX/XXXX I opened an account with XXXX for wireless cell phone service. I was informed I had 14 days to cancel service and return the phone I purchased and I would only pay for minutes or data used during the time I had the phone. I cancelled service on XX/XX/XXXX and returned the phone to the store where I purchased it. I subsequently received some erratic bills, and they ended up reversing most charges. They left me with a final bill of {$120.00}, but I had paid when I returned the phone. The store clerk told me what the amount was due for minutes and data usage, and I can't recall the exact amount but it was around {$60.00}. I know that I thought even that was too much, but I paid it so I could take care of it and switch to a different company. So I never knew what the {$120.00} was for and did not receive any notice of a debt collection, just XXXX bills. I attempted to dispute this with them over the phone around XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX but nothing was ever resolved. I don't like for this to still be on my credit report because I don't believe it is a fair charge.

The issue is with XXXX credit reporting in regards to Jefferson Capital XXXX while ago I had filed a dispute in regards to the amounts listed in the Charge off. Since that time, my credit has made a comeback, and I was able to receive funding for a new home loan. I was informed by my underwriter that I needed to have the dispute notifications taken off my report to be able to receive funding. I followed their instructions and called the reporting agency SEVERAL times to have the dispute remarks removed, and they started a report on the issue. 30+ days pass, and my underwriter contacts me again in regards to the same dispute remarks being there. So today I called back and spoke to them and they told me to pound dirt as there was nothing I could do as the creditor refused to remove the remark event though I agreed to the amounts and dropping the dispute. I feel that my credit is being held hosting from XXXX and Jefferson Capital as I now might lose my funding ( and GREAT percentage rate ) as the dispute remarks will not be taken off. I appreciate any assistance you can provide

This company told me they dont care and if I didnt pay they will further damage my credit they didnt care that it was fraud

They told her they are a debt collector and are trying to collect a debt from me and needed to get ahold of me and that the work number was the one they had. This was not true and I told them specifically they were not to call me at work prior to this. I called them back on my personal cellphone after my boss told me this happened and I told them that is not a number for them to call me at as it is my work and I told them before they were not allowed to call it. They said " we will note the account '' but then proceeded to call shortly after I had ended that call with them.

Over the telephone, I closed my several years ' long cell phone account with XXXX XXXX which I had been paying off in full monthly and for which I had no contract going forward. I paid the itemized bill that I received within a month 's time of the closing. Several months later having gotten no correspondence in the interim, I received a bill from XXXX XXXX for a single amount due approximately two month 's service, but with no itemization or explanation. When I attempted to review my account on-line it was no longer available. I took no action to pursue their charge, but XXXX has turning over what they perceived as a debt to a variety of debt collectors, the latest being Jefferson Capital Systems ( {$140.00} ). I went to buy a car about 10 days ago and while I did get the 0 % APR car loan, I was dismayed as to how low my credit score had dropped since I had last heard, about XXXX points. I requested my credit report today and while I do n't see XXXX XXXX, I do see Jefferson Capital Systems ( closed ) as another account citing the {$140.00} amount as a reported balance.

I contacted the collection agency to pay the amount due in Early XX/XX/XXXX. We came to an agreement that if I paid them they would update my credit report to show I paid. I did as they asked, they sent me a letter to show I was confirmed to be paid in full. They did not contact any of the three credit bureaus to update my credit to show paid in full. " Months '' went by I noticed not too long ago or currently that there still has been no update. I contacted the collection agency to ask what is going on with my account. The woman I spoke with told me they were not going to change my credit report update because I took too long to call them back about updating the credit report. I thought that I was paying them so that they would change to pay? She told me yes I'm paid in full, even sent me a new letter from their company stating I'm paid in full dated XX/XX/XXXX but told me they are not going to correct my credit report. I need help, I paid them and they still have me as a charge off on my credit report for ( XXXX XXXX/XXXX ), ( Jefferson capital systems , LLC. ).

Original debt was from XXXX for switching from XXXX to XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX did not pay the ETF as stated. The original amount was roughly {$600.00}. XXXX and the collection agency now states it is double that and reporting it as {$1200.00} owed on my credit report. I have no other collections nor bad debt on my credit. I have no problem paying what I owe but I did not owe {$1200.00}. I finally attempted to settle and was told over the phone that upon paying the settlement of {$370.00} on XX/XX/XXXX with Jefferson. They assured me they would delete upon payment. After disputing with credit bureau they updated the XXXX report as only reflecting that I simply made a {$370.00} payment and the balance of {$880.00}. When calling them to ask why did they not just tell XXXX it was paid and settled and to delete as per their verbal agreement they proceeded to tell me that " well a lesser balance owed is going to look better on your report anyway '' NO!! That is not what was agreed upon!!! They even sent a letter to my email stating " payment was made and closed ''.

I reached out to Jefferson Capital Systems on XXXX/XXXX/2016 after finding a Collection account on my credit report on XXXX/XXXX/2016. I spoke with a male representative on the phone. After the gentleman was able to locate the account we verified some information and found that they had an incorrect address and the account was not verified. I explained to him my concern which was the credit collection report and improper notification & verification of this account. I told him I wanted to pay the account for the full balance due and have this removed because I was not properly notified. He furthered explained to me that the account was still owned by Jefferson Capital Systems, however, it was sent off to a 4th party collection agency and I would have to pay them. I then go into further detail about the issue now and explained that I did not feel comfortable paying another agency for collection owed to them. The gentleman told me, " I 'm sorry but there is nothing I can do. '' I advised him that I would be reaching out to several different agencies over this matter.

Upon cashing the money order, they would agree to completely remove all references to this account with all the credit bureaus, agree to not list as paid collection or settled account, and agree payment was satisfying the debt in full. I also requested settlement within 15 calender days from receipt of payment. On XX/XX/2020, the XXXX XXXX money order, # XXXX was cashed.

I disputed the entry still being on my credit report with XXXX and XXXX, sent them a copy of this letter and money order and they came back as verified account but did not remove and said it would remain. I request all references to be removed from my credit reports, as they have agreed to my settlement terms by cashing the money order, and it is beyond the 15 calendar days since received.

I contacted Jefferson Capital systems LLC and I was told that the account was placed with them but that they werent the ones reporting anything to the credit bureaus either, so I have no idea what is going on, I would like to get this account deleted since any of the two companies arent responsible for reporting it, I received a letter by mail from Jefferson capital systems LLC saying that they are not reporting anything to the credit bureaus and to contact XXXX. I also dont understand why, I called XXXX and they always tell me that Jefferson capital LLC, purchased the debt, then if the debt was purchased by them, they should be able to delete it or at least validated and provide me with the original contract bearing my signature or if there is a contract between me and this company I would like to see it.

On XX/XX/XXXX, Jefferson Capital Systems opened a collections account for a debt that they claimed I owed for an old phone bill. Several agencies have attempted to collect this debt in the past, and each time I have requested a copy of the contract to verify the debt. When Jefferson Capital first contacted me, I replied to their request on their website, disputing the validity of the debt and requesting a copy of the contract. They provided nothing in response but instead have added the account to my credit report at all three of the major bureaus. I have disputed the entries with those bureaus, but each time Jefferson has " verified '' the accuracy of the information with them and the items remain on the reports. On or around XX/XX/XXXX I called Jefferson Capital to request that the items either be verified properly or removed and again I have received no response. Jefferson Capital is refusing to provide proper verification of this debt and as such should be required to cease its collections efforts and remove the offending items from my credit report.

Jefferson Capital has a history of misreporting collection dates to give accounts new DLAs and further damage peoples credit. They recently purchased a debt from XXXX XXXX. The update they added on XX/XX/XXXX via my dispute with XXXX was the historical account data which according to them is a major delinquency in XXXX of this year, when in fact they failed to update that date to correctly reflect the original date of XX/XX/XXXX, not XX/XX/XXXX, which is the disputed item at hand. They failed to update the dates to the correct dates, even via a dispute with XXXX. JEFFERSON Capital Systems XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MN XXXX : ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX CREDIT FILE : XX/XX/XXXX Confirmation # XXXX They added this derogatory item subsequent to the dispute I filed, which is not relevant to the reporting. They purchased the debt on XX/XX/XXXX. There is no " 1st Rptd '' of anything in XX/XX/XXXX <<<<<<<<<<<

I have an account showing on my credit report with XXXX. I call XXXX and was told they sold my account to Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC, located in XXXX MN XXXX. Jefferson is not the one reporting this account on my credit report however they are the ones that have this debt in their possession. Unless you have limitless amounts of time to sit on hold you get no answer to the phone calls. I have called XXXX times today alone and sat on hold for over a half hour. I have tried to call during CST time as I am in the same time zone. called them at XXXX in the afternoon and their office was closed. I would like to get my debt paid and off my credit report however I have no way of getting it. Website they provide does n't have any contact information other than the email address which they stated they will not provide me with information. How does a consumer pay off their debt when they make it impossible to get the statement to do so? I have to take time off of work to call these folks and try and get some sort of resolution I want to get this debt paid.

First of all, I want to start with that my first complaint about the XXXX XXXX in your file from 2020 was never resolved. The creditor had charged my account twice for a product not ordered nor received. They only credited me once, so the amount is still owed to me, please follow up. Secondly, I now receive a debt collection request from XXXX XXXX # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX, or XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, NC XXXX, original creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$4000.00}, phone ( XXXX ). I requested validation of debt since the original creditor disputes the existence of this account. Instead, I receive an ID theft form that asks for all my personal information. Certainly, I will not give this to a scam company, and ask that you request that this company pays the {$1000.00} FDCPA penalty directly to me, since they can not provide an itemized statement nor any validity of this debt within 30 days as requested when the first debt notice was received. Otherwise, JCS, XXXX would also need to pay my legal fees, while this matter will go to court in WA.

XXXX XXXX XXXX has been reporting a {$2000.00} collection account on my credit report. I have never had any business with XXXX XXXX. I realize this is a debt collection company. As such, numerous times I have requested validation of this debt. I have been told that they are not required to provide debt validation, which I know to be a lie. I have disputed this transaction several times on my credit report through XXXX. It was removed once and then the company reported it again. XXXX has not been helpful in having this item removed from my credit. I have sent them verification of a certified letter I sent XXXX XXXX requesting validation of the debt, or to have it removed from my report. Yet I 've received no response from XXXX XXXX. I do n't even know which company this alleged debt originated with. I believe at this time that this should be removed from my credit report as they have frequently broken the rules of FDCPA by refusing to send me any verification that this debt is valid and that they own this debt. I have no direct contract with XXXX XXXX.

Recently I found an item on my credit report from this organization. It came as a surprise as I had not received any notification, verification or communication from them. Several accounts were opened using my information in the past as an act of fraud. This fraud was likely committed by an ex significant other who managed our finances - though I do not know who for certain. The accounts seem to have a pattern of being opened, quickly used, never paid on and subsequently closed. I have alerted several companies to this and many have updated their records. It appears XXXX accounts in this office are part of this, though only XXXX is currently being reported. I do not know of the accounts in their office and had they attempted to contact me, I could have advised these are not my accounts as these accounts were listed on a notarized Federal Trade Commission Identity Theft Complaint and Affidavit. Despite this, they continue to report inaccurate data on my credit report and leave the file open using it as leverage in a sick attempt to force payment.

Jefferson Capital Systems LLC is trying to collect a fraudulent ( never existed ) debt of XXXX. Some months ago I received a letter from a company called " XXXX '', I believe they claimed that they were based in Minnesota. They claimed that I owed a debt of over {$2100.00} from a XXXX transaction. I had NO recollection of ANY unpaid debts, and so I contacted XXXX, which said that no such transaction had ever existed in all their years of records for my ( long unused ) account with XXXX. XXXX repeatedly called me. After repeatedly telling the callers that XXXX had confirmed there is no such debt as the one claimed they still persisted. XXXX sent me a letter ( from Illinois ) claiming they want me to pay {$2100.00} or to negotiate to reduce the phony " debt '', and arrange a payback schedule. I believe that they said they were part of " Jefferson Capital '' On XX/XX/2021 I received a notice in the mail from " Jefferson Capital '' claiming they want me to pay {$2100.00} or to negotiate to reduce the phony " debt '', and arrange a payback schedule.

XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting a debt of {$130.00} owed. The original creditor of this bill should be XXXX XXXX. It would be a wireless phone bill. However I don't understand how it has gotten on my personal account, it was a business phone. The account was set up with a credit card. The account was paid on time every month, by automatic withdrawal with a credit card on file. Any arrears should not have happened, because the phone was transferred the day after the bill was due, so XXXX XXXX should have been paid. I travel a lot for several months at a time, so I don't always get a chance to correspond with letters sent, especially if I am out of state, which I usually am. I have never missed a payment and paid on time every month. I tried calling XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX last year to try and resolve this problem. XXXX XXXX Customer Service Reps, took me in circles and had me on long hold times only to tell me I had to call XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, if I remember correctly ( no one came to the phone was always on hold for a very long time ).

On XX/XX/2020 I mailed a letter requesting that my debt with Jefferson Capital Systems be validated. I have no knowledge of this debt. I requested the following information to be provided on Company Letterhead. 1. A detailed and itemized statement of ALL activity to this account. 2. A contract bearing my signature that binds me to the debt. 3. The photo identification I must have provided at the time of starting services. 4. An itemized statement breaking down the balance you claim I owe. 5. Any other documentation you must have in order to attest to your compliance of the FCBA with this account. The creditor did not provide me with anything I requested but is considering the debt validated. They can not provide me proof that this is my debt. I am extremely frustrated. It is unfair that they can cause damage to my credit reputation but can not prove to the person they are damaging that the debt is in fact for them. I have attached the incompetent response from the creditor. What they are doing is illegal. They are not validating debts at all.

I am filing a complaint against Jefferson Capital Systems who has illegally accessed my personal financial information and used it for their own gain. They have underhandedly used the following set of USC Codes to obtain debtor information in order to collect on a debt that I do not owe : 15 USC 1692e, 1693-1693r, and 1693e. 15 USC 1692e of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, states that debt collectors are prohibited from using false, deceptive, or misleading representations when collecting a debt. The Fair Credit Reporting Act, as outlined in 15 USC 1681-1681u, sets standards for credit bureaus and third-party debt collectors to maintain consumer credit information. It also requires them to provide debtors with accurate credit reports and dispute inaccurate information. Furthermore, the Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices Act ( UDAP ), as stated in 15 USC 45-56, prohibits Jefferson Capital Systems from engaging in unfair or deceptive practices when collecting a debt. This includes misrepresenting the nature of the debt or the amount due.

I explained I haven't had a XXXX phone in more than 18 years. They continued to pass the buck and/or call me a liar. I paid them in 2017 approx. XXXX or XXXX to protect my credit and they agreed to clear my name and close any accounts associated with myself and credit and SS #. Now Jefferson capital says I owe them and my acct is in debt collections. I have reached out to them and XXXX with no positive reactions. They still call me a liar and i disputed with XXXX Credit reporting companies which also have done nothing to remove the fraudulent acct. I am being taken advantage of by the fact its small claims and like the banks have told me, " just pay them and get it off my report so i can borrow from them, everyone pays to play ''. This XXXX be XXXX dollars but is a XXXX dollar a year or more scam on the consumers who they create these fraudulent small claims debts.

So not only will they not prove to me what I owe I know that i owed like XXXX dollars and now it is well over XXXX.second issue is i tried to get in touch with this company for weeks and would sit on hold for hours to be hung up on. Third problem is they told me if i made payments that they would reflect it on my credit every month and they just said that to get me to agree to pay something. Now i call and they say they wont do so until entire debt is paid for. I have researched this company and they have tons of reviews stating that once paid they dont report that it is. My last problem is I ca n't believe a word they say now. I want the original amount from the original company because i know XXXX is completely rediculous. They treat you like XXXX and say well it is your credit. I am trying to buy a house and this rediculous company is holding me back. I am willing to pay them XXXX the XXXX for original debt and XXXX just to shut them up and get this resolved but i am at a loss. I need them to report this off my credit and for correct amount.

The name and address of the original creditor. 2. The original account number. 3. The date of the original debt. 4. An itemized list of all charges, fees, and interest accrued on the account. I also request that you cease all collection activity until this matter has been resolved.

Please send this information to the email provided. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is the current creditor for a XXXX XXXX account. The total amount of the debt was {$1000.00}. On XX/XX/2018 I called XXXX XXXX and spoke with a supervisor named XXXX XXXX. He told me more than once we were on a recorded line. We agreed to a settlement in full amount of {$520.00}. I asked him to email me this information before I agree to it. He explained he couldn't for security reasons. He went on to say I would receive this agreement via the US mail system and another notice saying it was settled in full once the {$520.00} was paid. I haven't received either one. He also said my credit report would say settled in full. Again he said I had nothing to worry about as we were on a recorded line. I agreed to the {$520.00} which was paid on XX/XX/2018 as agreed settled in full. My XXXX credit report shows my payment but still shows I have a balance due of {$520.00}. This balance due needs to be removed and show settled in full and I need to receive the notice my debt is settled. I filed a dispute with XXXX with no resolution.

I then asked Jefferson Capital to validate the debt, they could not and they immediately terminated their collection activity on the account according to the letter they have dated XX/XX/2019. I recieved a letter from Experian on XX/XX/2019, Report # XXXX stating that the information was " UPDATED '' and it was not. If the account had been investigated properly it would be clear that account is no longer in collection and/or deleted. The only change to the report ar in the 2nd " comment : '' area stating " the item was updated from our processing of your dispute in XX/XX/2019. '' If that is true why is Jefferson Capital currently on my report still. And if XXXX contacted the " data furnisher '' and not used the electronic systems that was used in the last dispute, I feel like this account would be deleted as the credit bureaus XXXX has done.

I have received correspondence from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC ( JCS ) and they are alleging that I owe a debt. They have not provided name or address of the original creditor. They are in fact a debt buyer and have no license to collect in the state of California in which they are trying to collect from. They have given false and misleading information to the CRAs and have caused great damage to me and my credit report. Jefferson Capital has shown gross negligence in their practices and have violated the FDCPA and FCRA in countless ways. JCS created an account " for me '' using my personal identifying information without my consent and have contacted me more than once without my permission. I have requested for validation of the alleged debt and it has yet to be validated. I will be sending out a second request & notice of dispute on Monday ( see attached ). They have caused great injury to me and my reputation by negatively reporting this alleged debt and causing me to have stress and anxiety whenever this matter is brought up.

5 years ago, I purchased a XXXX ridgeline with XXXX XXXX the loan was with XXXX XXXX acceptance for {$11000.00}. I've been making payments on the vehicle for about XXXX and when I asked how much I still owe them I was told {$11000.00}. The ended taking back the vehicle. They called and harassed me at various hours of the morning, so I blocked the number and now another company is calling me called Jefferson Capital Systems LLC saying I owe them money. Each time they've called me they have threated to take my property and take money from my account. They've sent letters to my house, having people knocking on my door, and scaring my kids. I have no idea what these might do next. They've been lying about serving me papers about having me in court. I've never seen anyone but my kids because I'm not home. I am in Georgia trying to setup a business and I can't focus because of this company. My wife has calls me a few times and she is also worried about these people. I don't know what to do so I researched what to do and filed a complaint.

On XX/XX/XXXX a debt verification letter was mailed to Jefferson Capital Systems via Certified Mail. On Monday, XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from Jefferson Capital dated XX/XX/XXXX. There was no postmark on the letter. The letter states only that they have puchased the debt in question, and that verification is enclosed. The only enclosure was a photocopy of a bill from the original creditor dated XX/XX/XXXX. The information received from Jefferson Capital is not enough to verify the alleged debt. They failed to provide further information that was requested in my debt verification letter, such as the date the debt was purchased. In addition, the account is reported as opened XX/XX/XXXX, over two years past the date on the photocopy of the bill provided. I believe the debt age is being incorrectly reported to the bureaus, which is in violation of the FCRA. Until recently, I was unaware of said alleged debt, and Jefferson Capital Systems has failed to provide adequate documentation to justify further collections efforts.

This is a bill from XXXX, from XXXX XXXX XXXX. They set the account up with my SSN and my daughters name. We tried numerous times to correct and they never did. We switched users and they say we owe them. Not sure at this point what it is for. I tried numerous times to straighten this out. They turned the account over to XXXX XXXX. We got numerous bills from them saying they would offer a settlement for x amount. I disputed this on my credit report because this is not my name on the bill, but on my credit report because of my SSN. The dispute came back in their favor. I got sick of fighting with them so I took a bill they had sent and paid the amount it showed. Sent that bill, my check with paid in full on it and mailed it to them. They cashed the check. I then got another bill from them. I called regarding it and they stated the amount I paid was on a expired offer. However they cashed the check. I feel that they have been paid and I actually paid a bill that is fraudulent beings it is not my name on the bill but they have my SSN.

Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC acquired an overdue debt from XXXX XXXX in the name of XXXX XXXX, reflecting an outstanding balance of {$14000.00}, approximately XX/XX/XXXX. The outstanding debt is related to the purchase of a XXXX XXXX XXXX To accommodate the refund of the balance, I was given a payment of {$3000.00} as a total payment, payable in 48 monthly installments of {$62.00}. To take advantage of this special rebate plan with discount, the first payment must be made before XX/XX/XXXX. I could not make any payment since there was a reduction in my work hours to 20 hours per week at {$7.00} per hour with a salary Week of {$690.00} monthly. Unable to comply with the payment, deliver the bus as a guarantee. In addition, the bus suffered damage with the passage of Hurricane Maria and had to take a loan to XXXX to secure it. Currently Jefferson Capital System has sued me and they want me to pay the amount of {$14.00}, XXXX. This situation is affecting my health.

I just received a notice ( XXXX/XXXX/15 ) that I have an Open Collection of {$540.00} for a XXXX Bill that is being collected XXXX. This bill was never mine and I got this discharged by contacting XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX years ago and filed a fraud report with them. They removed me from oweing this bill. Several collection bureaus since then have reported my oweing this bill to credit agencies, usually XXXX XXXX. Each time I contact them and try to resolve the issue, but this is getting very old! Each time I resolve it, the collection is sold to another collection agency and it pops up again. The last time, I just let it go and eventually, over time, it did n't affect my credit score that much. Now it has been posted to XXXX XXXX again and it has dropped my score from XXXX to XXXX! I have NEVER done business with XXXX in any way! The original date of this bill was probably XXXX years ago! I want this removed from all credit bureaus and stopped from ever happening again and immediately! Thank you for yourhelp in solving this issue.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email notification from my credit monitoring service that a collection has been added to my XXXX credit report by a company named XXXX XXXX XXXX for a XXXX account that I do now owe. The XXXX account was from XXXX and has been removed from my credit report years ago. This collection company, XXXX XXXX, has never sent me any correspondence regarding an old debt they purchased from XXXX. The debt does not belong to me. This collection has damaged my credit score by almost 85 points! I will be filing a civil action against this collection company for reporting a debt on my credit report that I do now owe. At this time, I am requesting CFPB to investigate this matter for this collection company to remove this alleged debt from all my credit reports. Further, I am requesting certified correspondence sent to my address and recorded statements indicating I owe a debt to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am attaching documentation showing proof that the XXXX matter has been disputed and resolved more than two years ago.

Honestly I do not know the laws governing this issue or if I have a legitimate complaint. Unfortunately I have a few collections on my report because of myself being on XXXX and just can't pay them. The collections agencies close and open add and remove collections accounts at will. One moment the collection is on my reports and then they close it and remove it which causes my score to go up and down constantly. It is taken off my report and closed and as soon as my score goes back up they report it and open it again. This can't be fair can it? How am I suppose to get to a point where I can get back on my feet to even pay them when they play this game with the credit report. I have contacted the credit bureaus and they say the account is verified but i know this is an automated feature and no one actually looks at the information which is another unfair situation. I have been affected by the pandemic and this is really stressing me out there has to be something that can be done to stop them from playing games with my reports.

On XX/XX/2018 I submitted an initial dispute to all three credit bureaus, specifically requesting the validation of debt that I was disputing on my credit report and the removal of such accounts is the proof was not produced. Part of their investigation involves them forwarding the dispute to the company. On XX/XX/2018, I sent a second dispute letter to all bureaus reminding them of the fair credit reporting act and their obligations as companies that furnish such information. I have yet to receive any proof of this debt/ account I am disputing. The 30 days for each letter has passed and the dispute has not been handled properly under the consumer laws of the FCRA. This specific account I am disputing has been deleted by the original creditor after investigating a dispute, and has made it to the collections section of my credit report which is heavily damaging my credit score. This company has failed me as a consumer by not complying with my consumer rights by continuously reporting unidentified and unverified information.

The notice states I owe {$1100.00} from a purchase I allegedly made from XXXX XXXX XXXX. The notice indicates a different name than mine, but it's very similar to my name. The address they mailed it to is my address. I called the company and explained that I never made such a purchase from any company, and do not owe the money, and I told them to remove it and not communicate with me again. The representative said they would only remove the name. Then, I hung up. I went to XXXX reviews, and read page after page of complaints about this same company that apparently, looks like a scam ; either that, or someone stole my address. Now, I need to check my credit report to see if they tried to put something adverse on it.

I am furious that this company has continued to repeatedly attempt to contact me after i've sent them a cease and desist letter. Under the FDCPA 15 usc 1692c it is my right to cease all communication with a debt collector, and in that letter I also invoked my specified remedy that this company cease all communication with me and any other person regarding this debt through any medium ( which includes mail, phone, and credit reporting ). This company has violated my rights by continuing to send me letters stating that I owe something. This company has communicated with another company regarding my personal information after I did not give them consent to do so. And under law any medium is any direct or indirect communication. This company has also violated my rights under 15 usc 1692d by continuing to harass me after i told them to stop contacting me. This company has also failed to report to the 3 nationwide credit reporting agencies that they have sold my information to another company, especially without my consent.

Under 809. failed to send me my initial communication before placing this alleged item on my credit reports further violating the FCRA, with {$1000.00} per violation.Jefferson Capital Systems is held liable as well for defamation and in the state of OHIO a creditor is who collects their on debt is considered a debt collector under XXXX Taking assignment of debts.

They can only tell me it has been sent to collection. XXXX can not verify the account because I have no knowledge of this account and can not give any information other than it was bought by Jefferson Capitol System. Furthermore I only found this out because I had applied for a XXXX credit card, I pay all my creditors and I was rejected to my surprise. I have reach out to XXXX XXXX XXXX in the last 2 month.

I have n't had XXXX at all and the accounts they are speaking about were originally removed years ago due to ID theft with my social security #. When I got on the phone with them they tried to verify my SS # and it did not come up in their systems. They pulled me up by name but the social security number is n't mine. I called them at XXXX at XXXX and spoke to XXXX first and she transferred me to XXXX. XXXX was supposedly working in their fraud dept and helps people who are affected by ID theft. She said she was going to dispute the transactions but I still may need to pay them if they do n't come off. She said she could not give me any confirmation for the disputes. No letters, No numbers, or anything else. She said if the dispute goes through ill see it on my credit report. Basically it did n't sound like they really wanted to help me. They do n't have my correct personal information at all. This debt is not mine.

appreciateI received a letter from Jefferson Capital regarding an old debt that they bought. I contacted them to pay it off. I was told they did not accept debit cards and needed my bank account information. I am not comfortable with giving out my bank account number. That was last week and since then they call my work phone ( I mistakenly called from my desk phone ) 5-10 times a day. I have spoken with several people to tell them not to call my work line. One particular rude representative talks over me, keeps repeating the same thing over and over until I have to hang up on him. There is no need for it. I called them to resolve the debt. It is not my problem that they do n't have good business practices and ca n't accept card payments on the phone or on line. I will mail my payment because I want to clear this up - hence the reason I called them last week. But I do n't appreciate the harassment at work after telling them several times ( sometimes multiple times on one call ) not to call my work phone number.

I already complained to XXXX because they added this to my file without notifying me. I asked for a verification and all they sent me was a vague letter with 6 months of bills for 4 phone lines when I only had 2. According to the CFPB there criteria which are required by law when sending a notice like this. The name of the creditor The amount owed That you can dispute the debt That if you dont dispute the debt within 30 days the debt collector will assume the debt is valid That if you dispute the debt in writing within 30 days the debt collector will provide verification of the debt That if you request the name and address of the original creditor within 30 days, if different from the current creditor, the debt collector will provide you that information. The last bullet point wasn't included on this vague letter. I received the letter on the XX/XX/XXXX and it has been over 5 days. XXXX XXXX is required by law to clarify that within 5 days of initial contact. I have attached the letter for verifcation

My wages are currently being garnished for a debt that is past the time-barred statute of limitations for it's being collected using these means. I was not served documents or paperwork stating that there would be a court date or hearing, I was unaware of the court proceedings and could not make my defense about this at the time. The original debt was for a revolving credit card and the limitations for that are 4 years in the state that I live in. The current amount being collected is {$6000.00} and the garnishment has been awarded to them for the full 25 % allowed deduction from my salary. The last date that there was any transaction with the account was in XX/XX/XXXX, that was a garnishment as well. The account went to collections in XXXX. The original debt was for a credit card that had a {$1700.00} limit, the interest rate they're charging is at 23 % and I'm overwhelmed by the nature of both the abrupt garnishment and the inescapably large amount of money that this company is attempting to take from me.

On XX/XX/2020, I received a phone call from Jefferson Capital representative named XXXX regarding an attempt to collect on an alleged debt for an account they have labeled as XXXX. I indicated while in the call that this debt is not mine and that I need validation to provide me with evidence that I am the intended party. XXXX indicated that Jefferson Capital had evidence that I am the intended party such as my signature and would reply to my request. However, a week letter I received a letter from Jefferson Capital for a settlement offer instead of debt validation. This misrepresentation from Jefferson Capital is a direct violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Act, in which I am entitled to the documentation of debt responsibility when requested either verbally or via correspondence. Jefferson Capital has verified that this account XXXX is in fact mine to all three Credit Bureaus and to date have not provided me with the evidence that they have submitted to the credit bureaus when I made the request.

I noticed recently that i had a {$1200.00} garnishment withdraw from my bank account. I have never received anything in the mail, from the courts, or any phone calls to indicate this old debt. After contacting the creditor listed through XXXX XXXX, I learned that they issued judgement for a Credit Card account opened in XX/XX/XXXX. Upon asking for further information they provided me with : the original household credit card open date, of XX/XX/XXXX said it was charged off XX/XX/XXXX and was simultaneously sold to XXXX XXXX on that same date. And on XX/XX/XXXX it was then sold to Jefferson Capital. I have asked for information that dates back to the opening of original account. From what I have been informed and also read, it appears that even if this account is mine, the statute of limitations ran out in XX/XX/XXXX. The attorney that I have consulted with is associated with a cost of nearly the cost of the garnishment. So the next most affordable thing instructed to do was to be here, filing a complaint.

In XX/XX/2021, I learned that two things had happened that appear to be the result of identity theft : - An account for which I did not apply was opened in my name with XXXX. No charges had been made. However, XXXX refuses to close the account. -I learned XXXX had reported me to collections for an account opened with my name and address, but with a fake email address. A {$200.00} charge is owed on this account. XXXX refuses to close the account while it is under investigation with their collections company, Jefferson Capital. ** Strangely both Jefferson Capital and XXXX are based in the same zip code in XXXX XXXX, Minnesota. Is there some connection between these two entities related to these fraudulent activities? ** Could I please get your help with : - closing the fraudulent XXXX account before any charges are made - closing the fraudulent XXXX account before MORE charges are made and helping me deal with their suspicious collections agency which is in the same zip code as XXXX. Thank you so much!

Jefferson Capital System did n't provide details but they are only responsible to collect payments. XXXX said they have no details and Jefferson Capital System directed me back XXXX. If no one can provide me details about this account and the charges, why am I responsible to make a payment? This is unfair and does n't make any sense to me.

I have reached out this Debt Collecting Company I mentioned that I do not acknowledge this debt that they are making efforts collecting on. I requested a Validation of debt. They mentioned they have no validation of the debt they are collecting on and asked me to provide proof to them that the debt isn't mine that they are making attempts to collect on behalf of a creditor. However they are in violation of Utah Code Law. That clearly states that need to provide validation of debt in order to make attempts to collect debt. There is lots of inaccuracies with reporting This collection company is inaccurately reporting information to credit bureaus that is affecting me negatively and has costed me lot of money. Along with that it has hurt my ability to obtain new accounts such as mortgage and has affected my credit rating. I now demand that this information be removed if they are not able to provide validation of debt immediately so my credit report is accurately being reported to the credit bureaus.

As of XX/XX/XXXX, having the good faith belief that the small amount of information I received from the plaintiff '' ( Jefferson Capital Systems ) '' and plaintiff 's attorney ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) ; might be accurate. I spoken with plaintiff and plaintiff attorney about reducing the debt amount from XXXX to what I agreed to the creditor '' ( XXXX ) '' in XX/XX/XXXX, for the amount of {$300.00} on a {$500.00} balance before class action lawsuit that was filed in XXXX, Ga for their predatory banking lending practices. I never received any notification so I assumed that my account was dissolved in the class action lawsuit, until I received correspondence from Jefferson Capital Systems stating they were suing me for a debt they claim to have rights to collect. When I reached out to plaintiff and plaintiff attorney upon receiving correspondence of a summon to resolve matter of debt in the amount of {$300.00}, neither was willing to work out anything based on the terms that was already presented to me by XXXX.

XXXX responded I have attached a copy of there response. Jefferson did not respond so I reached out to them to request that they cease collection and remove this account from my report since they didnt send verification nor respond within the allotted time for fair debt collection.

Jefferson Capital continues to call me for a debt that is my Fathers and not mine. The calls continue to come from spoofed local Caller ID numbers. Also this debt is more than 7 years old and yet they continue to call me even though I have explained that to them. The gentleman who called me was clearly not from the XXXX and even when I explained to him that it was not my debt he continued to garras me telling me I had to confirm my social security number with him which I refused to be cause it was not my debt. He then moved on to call me a liar and that I was clearly lying and that I would die in my web of lies. I realize a lot of debt collectors are outsourcing their call centers to XXXX based companies, but this is unacceptable because they are still calling XXXX XXXX and representing XXXX based companies yet violating federal laws. This is not the first time Jefferson Capital has used these tactics to attempt to collect debt that is not mine or that has surpassed the statue of limitations.

XXXX stated to me, to file the complaint when I told them I have 2 collection agencies on my report who claim they are collecting for them. I was advised to file a complaint and dispute with the credit bureaus because they did not send or assign anything in my name to a collection agency. I actually have two collections on my credit reports who claim they are collecting for XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I am filing complaints on both companies bc they are illegally attempting to collect on debts they clearly do not own. How is it possible for 2 collection agencies to be trying to collect on the same debt?? XXXX XXXX did not assign the debts. They have yet to properly validate the debt according to the FDCRA. Please remove this bogus collection from my reports and I will not hesitate to take legal action.

Turns out someone opened up an account with XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2021. They say I owe {$750.00}. This wasnt me. Ive had XXXX phone lines open with XXXX XXXX for almost 2 years. My phones are almost paid off. I dont miss my payments. Why would I go to a company like XXXX XXXX anyway. Trash service. I called JCS and the guy clearly was foreign and I couldnt understand his name but he asked for my social security number over the phone. I told him I wouldnt do that and he insisted this. I NEVER opened this account! Ive disputed this twice with my credit account and they just updated my info. This is absurd. All I have to do is prove my location compared to where this was purchased or where was the money coming from? I know it didnt come from my account for sure. I need this removed from my credit account ASAP. Stop all debt collection!

I opened an XXXX account to double check my credit report. There was an acct for a Jefferson Capital. I disputed it. XXXX IMMEDIATELY said they validated the account. I then launched a full on dispute with all 3 credit companies. I can not produce anything BECAUSE I DONT OWE THEM ANYTHING. I HAVE ZERO IDEA WHERE THIS ORIGINATES FROM OR WHAT. Apparently, XXXX sold an old XXXX acct ( which I did not do not owe ) to this company. I want copies of anything and everything that proves I owe this bill. I want this matter closed out from my credit report immediately and I want XXXX to produce whatever documents they used to verify this account. Otherwise, Im prepared to sue them both over this! I've been doing what I'm supposed to be doing to clean and clear and for them to immediately say " oh, yeah, you owe this ... '' is absolute XXXX XXXX. Thank you.

When I informed them that it was still on my credit report they said they did not understand why, They told me they would send me a letter to verify this. I do not understand why the XXXX XXXX XXXX has me in collections when I have never had a Credit Card with them.

XXXX XXXX was originally collecting a debt of XXXX from me which was accumulated when they continued to charge me monthly for a contract phone I was not using. I was on my credit account as a debt collection for two years than disappeared. It reappeared but this time it is under the company Jefferson Capital Systems. They sent me a letter saying they are offering me a discounted amount to pay off my debt which I did pay off in full. It showed that my balance was at XXXX. Now on my credit account they continue to have the account open and claim I owe them a balance of XXXX which is not correct. Now I am not so sure this is a collection on the behalf of XXXX XXXX, it is possible they could have found that information and are claiming to collect it on XXXX 's behalf. Now my credit score is being affected by something I paid off and I am not so sure my money was given to the right party. I have tried disputing it, but they keep lying even though I have provided proof of the letter and payment.

JeffersonCapitalSystemsLLC has been harassing me regarding a debt purchased from XXXX XXXX pertaining to an early termination fee of {$100.00} over 2 years ago. Both companies have most recently listed the account as having been opened under the term " automated '' late last year on my credit report. This occurred after another collection agency had sent me an offer to reduce the amount owed if I agreed to pay in full. Jefferson Capital has made numerous inquiries into my credit, given incorrect information such as multiple case numbers, multiple company name variations and were listed as a seperate owner along with XXXX listing on my credit report. I have also received multiple calls on my cell phone which is on the national 'Do Not Call ' list. After being sent several collection orders lacking the original debt 's owner information and number a cease and desist letter was sent over a year ago via mail. I disputed XXXX early termination fee from the start and am tired of this situation.

About a week ago I checked my credit report and noticed a new account in collections. I immediately called the debt collection agency and found out the origin of this debt. The debt was several years old and had been on an automatic payment plan ( the original payment plan was set up through XXXX ) It was my understanding that the automatic payments continued until the full amount was paid off. The bank card that the payments out of was my at the time boyfriend 's, and we split up, so I did not know the payments had stopped. I never received any notice about this debt or I would have taken care of it immediately. As soon as I saw this on my credit report I called the company and paid the amount in full. My concern is that this will still have a negative impact on my credit score and I have been working very diligently on improving my score, so for a new collection to be added for a debt that I didn't know existed is very frustrating. Thank you for your time. Respectfully, XXXX XXXX

Sometimes they call from what looks like a local phone number, they don't leave messages and when I return the call to see if it's something I should be responding to, I block my phone number and somehow they know it's me. I have disputed this several times over the past 3 years. This debt is not mine and is incorrect. I have written to all 3 credit bureaus, they just keep sending me letters saying that they're verifying the debt which of course they will verify it on their end when they're trying to collect money from people. The deception lies in the fact that they purposely call from different phone # s that look local or even like an area code that I've recently had communication with. Why do they need to hide behind fake phone numbers unless they're illegally contacting me and others? This is absurd. I'm going to report them to every entity possible including the XXXX and the credit bureaus again.

this debit was paid to jefferson capital systems llc on XXXX/XXXX/2010 they never provided me a letter stating that the debt was settled in full. i did not settle for partial it was settled in full as the cards limit was anywere from {$300.00} to {$400.00} secured credit card i paid the balance they gave me of XXXX which included fees and accrued interest. This i now that XXXX time my settled in debit was sold by jefferson capital to another collections agency and i am quite frankly tired of cleaning up and being held responsible for something jefferson capital systems failed to do which is report accurate information to all XXXX credit bureaus and cease collections activity. I am not filing a complaint with CFPB in hopes that this activity and negative information is finally and permanantly removed off my record including credit report. i will provide a copy of my bank statement as proof that it was paid since jefferson capital never sent me a letter showing that the debt was settled.

I received a notification on XX/XX/XXXX that Jefferson Capital System had reported a collection account with a balance of {$730.00} on my XXXX Credit Report. The reported account references an original creditor by the name of XXXX XXXX and indicates the accounts was opened in XX/XX/XXXX. I have never received services nor have I conducted businesses of any kind with Jefferson Capital System or XXXX XXXX. Any account opened in my name with either entity is fraudulent and the result of identity theft. I attempted ot contact Jefferson Capital System but was not successful in getting any additional information and Jefferson Capital System refused to remove the fraudulent account from my credit report which has now caused a decrease in my credit score. Attempts to speak to a Jefferson representative were made on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I would ask that Jefferson Capital remove this fraudulent collection account from my XXXX report immediately and be prohibited from any future reporting.

Several fraudulent collections are reported on my credit report. I discovered it, and I contacted and sent an FTC identity theft report to the collection agencies and the credit bureaus to remove the derogatory remarks from my credit report. I have been a victim of identity theft and have informed all the credit bureaus, collections agencies, and credit card companies that these accounts are derogatory and do not belong to me. Someone used my personal information to open fraudulent charges under my name without my permission, consent, and knowledge. I have requested that the collection agencies, credit bureaus, and credit card companies send me debt validation documents regarding these fraudulent accounts, but they have not responded. I want these derogatory, fraudulent accounts removed from my credit bureau and never reported on my records. The collection companies are XXXX XXXX XXXX, credit card company XXXX XXXX, Jefferson Capital Syst, and the credit card company is XXXX XXXX.

Recurrent perpetrator is XXXX XXXX, a.k.a. XXXX XXXX, whose latest scam is against current creditor, Jefferson Capital Systems for {$640.00}. XXXX XXXX continues to use her previous property address, but I bought her property in 2003. XXXX apparently continues to put down MY property address which results in my receiving HER creditors ' letters trying to collect HER debts. XXXX is not using my name. She is using my address for her credit card scams. Isn't this a form of identity theft? I have tried writing Jefferson Capital Systems ( as I had to all previous creditors looking for XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX ) that I am NOT XXXX, and that XXXX has no right to be using my property address as hers ( since 2003 ). How do I stop this XXXX from unlawfully using my property address in her credit card scams? I am tired of being accused of being XXXX and I am tired of receiving letters from creditors looking for XXXX who think she lives at my property. She does not and has not since 2003!

This letter is in dispute of account number XXXX in the amount of {$1000.00}. XX/XX/2012, I spoke to a XXXX customer service rep that misrepresented the unlimited data plan. I was told that it was unlimited data all inclusive, but was sold the product incorrectly, it was not unlimited data. I asked the rep several times before accepting the plan if was truly unlimited and he said it was. I was lure to accept a package that was not actually unlimited data. I would have never agreed to the terms of the plan, if I had known the correct facts. I had also explained to the rep that my husband was injured in XXXX and XXXX retired so I needed a plan that would not be a financial burden. I received a bill that was over $ XXXX-XXXX. I called and spoke to a XXXX manager, who review the recorded phone and indicated that the rep did provide inaccurate information. He also stated there was not anything he could do to help us. We canceled our contract. The charges include early termination fees.

Sometime between XXXX we switched from XXXX to XXXX under a promotion that XXXX would pay off our phones. They did that and XXXX provided boxes to return the phones, which we did. We spent roughly 2 weeks on XXXX and returned to XXXX at which time they got everything turned back on and issued us new, upgraded phones. We have since fought XXXX on numerous occasions about this debt. I have been told by no less than 8 XXXX customer service representatives that I do not show as owing any amount to them. In XX/XX/XXXX I closed my account and ended all dealings with XXXX. Just now on XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXs later I receive something about a debt? Why would I owe a debt they didn't care to try to collect for over 2 years? Also why did they let me close my account and walk away if I owed a debt? As I said I have fought, and won this claim that I owe XXXX money, but I do not and I will make XXXX sure they never get another dime from me and as many people as I can tell not to go there!.

I immediately disputed the item with the credit bureaus. I also received a letter in the mail dated XX/XX/XXXX advising me of this alleged debt. 1. This company is offering for me to settle for a debt I do not owe. Why would I pay for something I don't owe? 2. This company is calling me after the debt is disputed and still is in dispute with XXXX. They should not be calling me until the dispute is completed. 3. I also sent this company a letter on XX/XX/XXXX disputing this alleged debt and debt validation. There is no original creditor -- only a debt description. I have no idea who XXXX MC is. I never had any dealings with either company. 4. This company states this alleged debt with them is accurate ( with XXXX Dispute ), but I am unable to find any information about this so called debt description of XXXX MC.

Jefferson Capital Systems LLC filed a law suit petition with a court within my jurisdiction in Texas. I not once received any notification from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC stating who they were, what they were collecting on or that I was being sued. I had never spoken to them or even had a debt with them. This debt I have now found out was purchased from the original creditor. Jefferson Capital Systems LLC never offered me the opportunity to work with the original creditor. They made numerous anonymous calls to my cell but never once left a voicemail or a call back number. I was able to trace their number to their company and assumed it was fraud since they do n't leave messages. I have been receiving calls from stating they are sending a warrant for my arrest and the numbers left behind are not traceable to a state office or legal office. I am now receiving numerous calls to my cell phone from various numbers claiming to be from a processor which I found out was fraudulent.

Originally, XXXX from a previous CFPB acknowledge that this was deleted from my XXXX credit. However, since then they have not only re instated this fraudulent activity. They also, sold this Account to Jefferson Capital , LLC. Jefferson Capital has without prior notice reported an amount of {$320.00} to my XXXX and XXXX credit report fraudulent as well. I would like to notice the XXXX has act contradictory to the laws. They have harassed me and tried to bully me into providing personal information about myself.

I have a debt from XXXX XXXX, and it was first made more than 5years ago. But yet all of the credit agencies and XXXX XXXX are saying that the account was opened this year. I have not made any payments, no collections have been made, and I have not contacted them nor they contacted me. So the dates are being forged. Also the original creditor. ( XXXX XXXX ) sold the debt to a company called Jefferson systems LLC or something like that. And as far as I am aware, it is illegal for them to trade/sell the debt to another debt collector.. and that they have to first even ask me if it can be on my credit report. I believe that after 180days the debt collection agency is no longer able to try and collect this debt from the debtee which they have tried to do.. I receive phone calls at random intervals and times from debt collectors, but I do not tell them who I am so it won't be a " contact '' for them. Please look into this and remove it from all of my credit reports. Thank you.

Dear Jefferson Capital Systems, I have been receiving threatening calls from your company, treating legal action if I do not pay the debt that you claim I owe. However, I have never had any business or financial dealings with Jefferson Capital Systems, and I have never authorized you to place any negative items on my credit report. I am requesting that you immediately stop all communication with me regarding this alleged debt, as I do not owe any money to your company. I am also requesting that you remove all negative information related to this debt from my credit report as soon as possible. This is causing me significant financial harm. I am prepared to take legal action if necessary to ensure that my credit report is accurate and free of any false or misleading information. Please provide me with written confirmation that you have stopped all communication with me and that you have removed all negative information related to this alleged debt from my credit report.

I filed a dispute with all three credit bureaus against Jefferson Capital and the results came back as accurate. Its impossible! The collection was for a cell phone company that we dont have here in Colorado XXXX They claim it was opened XX/XX/2022 but I lived in Colorado and was on my husbands phone plan and then we switched to XXXX. I can prove that. I think I am a victim of fraud bc prior to that I was on my daughters phone plan. Its been 6 plus years since I moved to Colorado. I need help because according to the fair credit reporting act, the company needs to provide certain information which they did not do. Please help me! I have worked really hard on my credit and after all these years this is ridiculous. I have never received anything in the mail regarding the collection and have zero prior knowledge of this. I know that they have to provide the original contract, account number, date and proof that I own the account and none of that is on my credit reports!!

While I previously did business with XXXX XXXX, I ended my account with good standing.

On or about XX/XX/2023, a Debt Validation request was sent to Jefferson Capital System via mail. The following items were requested as part of the Validation. 1. A copy of the Original Purchase Agreement from the Original Creditor that shows that you legally own this debt by the Original Creditor. 2. Proof that you are a legal debt collector in California. 3. A copy of the Bond that shows that you are Legally Registered in My State. 4. Copies of ALL Statements from XXXX to XXXX of this Account. Jefferson Capital has failed to validate this debt and instead referred the debt to XXXX XXXX for collection. Jefferson Capital, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX have refused to remove this unverified debt from my credit report. Per FCRA, 15 USC 1681 et esq, I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report. The inclusion of this unverified debt is a Violation of My Rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It makes my consumer credit report inaccurate and needs to be deleted.

A previous debt for {$530.00} from XXXX XXXX ( Financial ) that was removed from my credit after 8 years, was put back on my credit by Jefferson Capital System as a new account. The original debt was opened in XXXX and removed from my credit around XXXX. Jefferson Capital System put it back on my credit with different opening dates that listed from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. I've disputed it multiple times to have it removed, but each time I am told it is accurate. To my understanding, once a debt is removed ( original debt from XXXX ) can not be bought and reaged onto someone's credit again as if it is a new open account. In the last dispute I made, Jefferson Capital System updated the multiple dates they added with XXXX of XXXX, which is still not accurate because the debt is over 9 years old. I had not heard from XXXX XXXX regarding this debt, as it was over 8 years old and had been removed from my credituntil Jefferson Capital System put it back on my credit.

Jefferson Capital Systems has placed a derogatory remark on my credit report. They are attempting to collect for XXXX XXXX XXXX. Alleged debt amount is {$220.00} I have no knowledge of this account and any other account from XXXX XXXX. Just in the past month XXXX XXXX has confirmed that they do not have any accounts on file bearing my name. This can be verified if Jefferson Capital wants to contact the North Carolina Department of Justice Attorney Generals Office, refer to case # XXXX They can also contact XXXX XXXX personally @ XXXX ext. # XXXX ask for XXXX XXXX. Also, I never received a notice from this company written or otherwise that they were attempting to collect on this debt. Rather they placed a negative negative remark on my report without offering the opportunity to dispute and or request validation of this alleged debt, which is my right pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act. This is a violation of my rights and a violation of the Federal Law

On XX/XX/2020 I received a letter in the mail attempting to settle a debt from XXXX XXXX for {$44.00}. I rarely use XXXX and certainly never had a debt and after checking my account there was no debt or any suspicious transactions. I believe Jefferson Capital is phishing me for information or falsely trying to extort money from me. I called the phone number on the letter and they refused to give me any information or email associated with this claim without me giving my personal information. I gave them the reference number and my name and they can see my phone number, they demanded my social security number which I'm not willing to give out to a random person claiming to collect " debt ''. They hung up on me when I asked them questions about the supposed claim. After researching this particular practice I found many examples of people being pressured to pay for a debt that wasn't theirs. The Company is : Jefferson Capital XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX

I contacted this company when I saw it was on my credit report. The reason I called was because the amount showing owed is twice the amount that was originally owed and left unpaid. I asked to verification of the debt and was given the runaround. Also the debt is showing as recent as last year and this is not accurate either. The original delinquency date for this debt was in XXXX 2013. This company is reporting a date that makes it look like this was as recent as last year which is not correct. I was told someone would call me back with verification information but the only person that called was a collection agent to tell me how much I owed and how did I want to pay. I informed the agent that I was not going to pay anything until a verification of debt was done. He told me that all debts are verified before being handed over to them for collection so he could assure me that the debt was accurate and up to date. I thanked him for his time and ended the call.

I sent a letter dated XXXX XXXX, 2015 to the most recent purchaser of the account, Jefferson Capital Systems, to verify the debt and to cease and desist any phone calls to my personal or business lines. I revived email confirmation that my letter was received. I received a letter from Capital XXXX Systems that they had received my request for debt verification for the account owned by Jefferson Capital Systems, the letter included my request for no calls to my phone. It would be prudent to mention that I have since sent Capital XXXX Systems XXXX other letters dated XXXX XXXX, 2015 and XXXX XXXX, 2015. I was informed my father received a call from a collections company looking for me on XXXX XXXX, 2015 but he could not verify the caller. He has since been informed to get the name of any collector that calls for me. However, I suspect it to be XXXX XXXX XXXX. I received a call on XXXX XXXX, 2015 from XXXX. They identified themselves as Capital XXXX Systems.

I got a copy of my credit report and noticed a few incorrect accounts. Never received a phone call or letter or any other type or communication from them. I asked the credit bureaus to investigate and the results came accurate. I sent another letter asking how they verified the information and I haven't received any answer. I sent a letter to the collection company and they just sent me a generic bill. I respectfully asked for a proper validation with date of services and proof that statue of limitations wasn't expired and they sent me a letter saying that they can't sue me because the debt is old but they will continue reporting the account with the credit bureaus. They sent again the same copy of a generic bill as proof of validation. According to the XXXX bill they sent the dates are from 2019 which is totally false. I have had XXXX for the past 10 years under my husbands name. I am assuming they are re-aging an old account and is totally against the law.

For 6 months both Jefferson Capital Systems and XXXX XXXX, have failed to verify reported debt to XXXX, in a breach to multiple articles from the FCRA, and the FDCPA. JCS who claimed the ownership from the reported account, and reported the account separately, took off such account from the XXXX Credit Report, but refused several times to do the same with the duplicate account. JCS accuses XXXX in several communications to the CFPB and the XXXX, of being the controllers for the alleged account, even when clearly the report shows the claimed ownership by JCS. This never verified debt, and this fraudulent tactics by JCS have been damaging my cost of funding and my credit worthiness. By this conduct I demand XXXX and JCS to remove that account from my XXXX Credit Report, which should have been done 5 months ago, as per FCRA and FDCPA. In addition I request CFPB to issue the proper sanctions to both, and to order economic compensation to the consumer.

Jefferson Capital Systems LLC is running a fraudulent company. They are claiming I owe XXXX XXXX {$430.00}. This is impossible considering I currently have a wireless XXXX account that I pay monthly bills for. I have contacted them and they told me I am completely up to date with my payments. If this debt was true, XXXX would have contacted me or not let me sign up with them in the beginning until I rectified this " debt ''. I have googled this " Jefferson Capital '' and there are 100 's of reviews all saying the same thing. They all state that this " company '' is inventing XXXX debts with people or they are buying very old debts and " re-aging '' them to make them look more recent, so they will not drop off people 's credit report. I am very discouraged because I have been working to build my credit and this fraudulent company is trying their best to undo my work by conducting a massive scam. This company needs to be investigated and stopped immediately.

First, this letter needs to be sent within the first 5 days, not after the debt was removed from my credit report. Second, they purposely dated the letter XX/XX/2019 in order to try and deny me my full 30 days to dispute or request validation. Within the letter, they indicate they will sue to obtain a judgment on a debt removed from my credit report based on the statute of limitations. They claim they can garnish wages make a report to the credit bureau.

But when I call Jefferson Capital, they still tell me they have no record.

This account is not mine. I have asked the reporting collection agency numerous times top validate this debt and they are unable to do so, however they keep reporting it to the credit bureaus. In addition, on my most recent credit report, they are now reporting incorrect dates. Originally the alleged delinquency was XXXX, then they changed it to XXXX, not it says XXXX. Jefferson Capital Systems has no regard for the consumer. They are involved in unscrupulous business practices. They have made no effort to try and resolve this matter and have blatantly disregarded my request for validation of this debt. The account was fraudulently acquired years ago, and does not belong to me. They have failed to provide me with any proof whatsoever to substantiate their claim. I requested to see the application, the proof of identity that was provided at the time of the application and the original signature on the application and they can not provide that information.

This debt is illegally being reported to my XXXX and XXXX Credit File. I do NOT have any contracts between myself and _____ ( debt collector ) They have failed to provide documentation that the debt is legal. The company in which my original account was created SOLD the debt to this collector therefore, having sold the debt and leased the premises out after moving they are not legally allowed to collect on a unit that is now occupied. This debt is not valid, as I was allowed to terminate our lease due to distress created for my family by administration of this facility. What I want? I want this debt listed by _____ immediately removed from all of my credit profiles. They will ask have you tried to resolve this issue with the company. I have tried to resolve this and they are unable to verify that I have a debt / document with their company. That should be it. Make sure you put your social and email so they can respond and notify you of updates.

Upon reviewing it, I discovered that XXXX XXXX XXXX had reported an account balance of {$10000.00} that originated with XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. While it is accurate that I opened a credit account with XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, in XX/XX/XXXX, I surrendered the vehicle to them under verbal agreement that the account would be closed due to its poor running condition since the purchase date in XX/XX/XXXX. Unfortunately, I was naive and did not get that statement in writing. In XX/XX/XXXX, 1 month after surrendering the vehicle to XXXX, the credit account was removed from my credit report. Fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX, and it magically appeared as being owned by XXXX XXXX XXXX without me having received any written communication whatsoever from the collection agency. I have disputed this account twice via XXXX and XXXX 's online systems to no avail.

The accounts are as follows : account name : XXXX XXXX amount : XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : XXXX XXXX amount : XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : XXXX amount : XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : XXXX amount : XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : dept of education amount : XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : XXXX amount : XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : XXXX amount : XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : XXXX amount : XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : XXXX amount : XXXX date XXXX account name : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX date opened : XX/XX/XXXX account name : XXXX XXXX amount : XXXX date XXXX account name : XXXX amount : XXXX XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX

On XX/XX/XXXX a collection account, with a balance of {$4300.00}, was reported to the credit bureaus by Jefferson Capital Systems. The agency states that the account was opened on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. Prior to XXXX of this year this company was not listed on my credit report and the XXXX date greatly diminished my rights to dispute this debt. I disputed the debt through XXXX on XXXX XXXX and the bureau found that the debt does not go against FCRA although I have never received any documentation and the company is reporting the account as being opened on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. Since XXXX XXXX I have received 135 robo-calls from this company, no voicemail was ever left and if you call the number back it's a recording. I have never consented to robo-calls and they have been non-stop. I have attached a copy of my credit report from XX/XX/XXXX showing that the account was not present previously as well as screenshots as well as screenshots of the call.

Previously an " alleged debt '' was trying to be collected for from multiple collection agencies to which I communicated with all via certified mail and request that they provide accurate and appropriate documentation to verify proof of alleged debt to which they could not-Every time I sent out certified letter I sent the previous copies of certified letters as well from the prior collection agency to whom the current collection bought the alleged debt and the collection agency would respond with an apology and removal of this from their system as well as my credit file as they were inaccurate in what they were doing-Jefferson Capital Systems not only is trying to collect for an " alleged debt '', but they have falsely reported this on my 3 credit reports known as " Silent '' treatment, and " Re-Aged the Alleged Debt '' for 2015-Jefferson Capital Systems is required by FCRA to report ACCURATE information concerning consumer credit files

There is 1 alleged debt under my name and credit report with Jefferson Capital Systems. Since the first alleged debt was bought by Jefferson Capital Systems over 5 years ago. I have Requested NUMEROUS times ( via mail, phone ) on the alleged debt that they validate, verify and provide me with the original purchase agreement or contract baring my signature. They have failed to furnish and have ignored my requests for any sort of validation, verification, original purchase agreement or any documentation supporting their claim. Even after that, I have filed several disputes with all 3 credit reporting agencies and in each dispute they have illegal modified what they are reporting to the credit reporting agencies to work in their favor of the disputes. They have not followed FCRA, Violated the law, and have violated my rights as a consumer. Their failure to adhere to the law and the FCRA has caused me great financial harm and difficulties.

Last year, for weeks I received calls twice a day from a company trying to collect on a XXXX debt. I have never had an account or any dealings with XXXX. I eventually recorded the conversation, told them the debt isn't mine and to stop calling. Today, I received another call from a collections agency regarding this XXXX debt, which isn't mine. They spoofed the call to make it appear to be local. They said they were with Jefferson Capital Systems in Minnesota and wanted to collect on the debt. I recorded the conversation, told them it isn't my debt, and they asked for four digits of my social to prove that it isn't my account. I refused to do that, as this company should be required to prove this is my debt ( which there is no proof of, because it isn't my account ). I shouldn't be required to prove it was never mine by sharing my social security number with a company that obviously has unethical and predatory collection practices.

A couple of years ago, a debt collection showed up on my credit report. All I know is that it is for XXXX XXXX in am amount of {$860.00}. I know that I have never run up a bill of that size with a utility Company. My belief is that I was a renter, moved and somehow the service was ever taken out of my name after I left the property and someone else continued service in my name. I have asked repeatedly, XXXX XXXX XXXX, the debt collector, to get me proof of the dates that this debt was run up during and also the address that it was at. I would be able to verify whether or not I was living at the address at all or will be able to verify what dates i lived there. Over a period of 2 years, no one is responding with ANY type of verification that this debt was incurred while I actually lived somewhere. XXXX can not help me as I don't know what address and dates this b ill is supposedly for. I want this off of my credit reports. Thank you

A debt collection appeared on my credit report for {$810.00} owed to Jefferson Capital Systems ( JCS ) with the original creditor listed as XXXX XXXX, opened on XX/XX/XXXX. I sent XXXX a debt verification letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, asking for several specific pieces of documentation which proved their claim of a debt owed. XXXX responded with a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, which included a single-page document and claimed it to be " verification of the account ''. The document provided is what appears to be an overview of an account with XXXX XXXX ' one-month billing period XX/XX/XXXX, to XX/XX/XXXX,. This document shows only a total amount owed on the account and lacks specific information that, in my opinion, is necessary to prove any owed debt on my behalf. It's also unclear who owns the rights to this debt as the bill is directly from XXXX XXXX and can, to this day, be accessed and paid off directly through XXXX XXXX via their website.

XXXX University under the XXXX XXXX umbrella sent me to collections for a debt of {$14000.00}. The school was later sued by your institution forcing them to shut down and sale all of their locations. The collection agency named Jefferson Capital System LLC is trying to collect a large sum of money for a school that lied not only to me but on me. XXXX University attempted to get me to take out a loan from XXXX for {$4700.00} at a 9.9 % interest rate to pay for one quarter. One of their representatives later told me I should take out a genesis loan for the amount of {$11000.00} which would cover the rest of the semester. I refused and explained to them I did n't have the money to pay for a loan. XXXX University locked me out of my online classes and school assigned email accounts. I do n't owe for classes I did not take nor did I finish school. They sent me to collection for not taking out a loan which is something I do not understand.

XXXX, XXXX and XXXX, I contacted all three credit bureau 's and asked for them for debt validation but it came back as verified. I contacted XXXX for debit validation because the reporting is inaccurate and they advised me that their system didn't go back for my account due to it being with Jefferson Capital Systems. I then contacted them and was told that there is no payment needed on the account and that the account has been paid to an 0 balance since XX/XX/2017. They also stated that they notified the company so the debt can be removed off of the credit report. The rep stated that she will send me a letter for proof. I received the letter and contacted XXXX once again then was told I needed to contact the three credit bureau 's. I contacted them and they updated my credit report incorrectly again. I have been battling with all five for the last three months and I need this account to be removed from my credit report immediately.

XXXX XXXX is reporting closed and paid accounts as still open. This is still having a negative effect on credit score. They are using too many accounts with balances that are paid off and closed to deny credit. Derogatory public records or collections filed. Too many accounts with balances. Proportion of loan balance to loan is too high. After reviewing my credit report I noticed several errors. XXXX XXXX is reporting all accounts including loans paid off and no longer active as total dept and balances. They are reporting to lenders that I have to many derogatory comments and collections. The credit reports show only 2 collections filled against my report. One for {$180.00} and one for {$780.00}. They are reporting too many accounts with balances. That is because they are not telling lenders accounts that are closed and paid in full as open accounts with balances. They a reporting the wrong income to ration ratio on credit report.

XXXX XXXX XXXX has been attempting to collect a debt, for which I claim no liability associated, regarding an account from XXXX XXXX where the last payment made was before XX/XX/XXXX. Official correspondence from XXXX XXXX shows that the number I had held previously with them was likely sold to another customer based on a collection attempt from XX/XX/XXXX. The final collection attempt from XXXX XXXX was on XX/XX/XXXX. My most recent credit reports show that Jefferson Capital has reported the start date of the debt as XX/XX/XXXX which is incorrect. Based on the Arizona statute of limitations, this alleged debt would have expired six years after the final payment ; either on or before XX/XX/XXXX. It has also been over seven years since XX/XX/XXXX. As such, I am requesting that XXXX XXXX XXXX stop their collection attempts and remove the previously aforementioned collection from each of the credit reporting bureaus ' records.

The rep whos name was XXXX talked to me. He read me disclosure, reparated debt to me and asked if I could pay full amount I said I dont have full amount but I could pay XXXX. He checked with his imaginary manager and said ok. He asked how would you like to pay. Before I decided to pay I asked for a settlement letter by email so that I can have in writing our agreement. He said his company dont do that because of the offer was not the original offer and after I pay Id get an email within 24 hrs. We went back in forth. I end up hanging up after he kept lying to me saying he couldnt provide a debt settlement letter. I need help with this issue and for them to provide me with the debt settlement letter in writing for the XXXX so I can pay and move on.

I have never opened an account with XXXX and furthermore, I never resided in the states of which they were opened in. The fact that these accounts were opened 8 months apart and this wasn't a red flag to XXXX is beyond me. The two accounts are reporting negatively on my credit report and I am only now becoming aware of them. I've tried disputing these accounts with the bureaus but the debt buyer responds verified with lack of sufficient information supporting the claim. If this debt is in fact my own, I would like the license and social security card on file compared to my own and I can ensure it doesn't come back validated. These accounts are causing me to suffer and I am feeling it is out of my control. Anything that I can do to assist XXXX in resolving this matter, I am open to.

This complaint is a carry on of the other XXXX complaints that i filed in XX/XX/2022 with cfpb about XXXX and XXXX XXXX in which the debt couldnt be found in either of their systems and verify the accuracy with original date of open on the contract with either Company, now Im receiving the same account just by JEFFERSON CAPITAL trying to collect the same debt as stated above. This debt isnt mine, it belonged to a deceased member. Also this account doesnt fit my current address or anything to verify as mine. Anytime i requested verification of debt actually belonging to me and not just opened in my name i never receive a proper response just about the debt matching my name and a random date to my current living address which has been for the past 3+ years and no XXXX information has ever been sent to me when the fraud happened, so incorrect date for the account opened because i didnt open such a account at my address.

I discovered today that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX. XXXX MN has been falsely reporting to the credit bureaus that a debt they purchased and obtained XX/XX/2019 is a new debt. On their website they falsely claim that the credit bureaus require that XXXX XXXX report the date they acquired a debt as the open date. My credit score has lost over 70 points because of their shady collection practices. A collection debt is a continuation of an original debt and this company is purposefully falsely reporting to credit bureaus the open date of accounts in order to negatively impact the debtors. This IS NOT A NEW DEBT. In their FAQs page they clearly state that if you pay your debt they will delete it from your credit report after 30 days. They also do not contact the debtors to inform the debtor that they are the collector and they try to excuse this on their page as well. Giving the debtor no opportunity to refute the debt.

This complaint is regarding a debt with XXXX that occurred over five years ago in which the company charged me incorrectly. At the time, I contacted XXXX attempting to dispute the amount but there was no resolution. My account was immediately sent to collections and it was subsequently charged off with a reported debt of over {$400.00}. Several weeks ago, I noticed that the charged off mark from XXXX had disappeared from my credit report and assumed that it had aged off per the statute of limitations set forth by the FDIC. However, that was not the case. The XXXX debt was apparently sold to a debt buying company because today a new creditor called XXXX XXXX XXXX has flagged my account with a brand new debt of {$550.00} carrying a due date of XX/XX/2018 which is today. It is clear that this action was taken by XXXX and XXXX to circumvent the consumer protection law regarding time limitations on credit reporting.

Telling me he would contact his client who is not even the original creditor that I was refusing to pay since I was not paying until I had assurance of deletion before agreeing to settlement.

I spoke to a debt collector name XXXX from Jefferson Capital Systems llc in XX/XX/2020. I got a letter stating I owe a debt and I called the company and XXXX illegally lied and said he is an attorney and threatened me with a lawsuit and told me I had to pay 25 % out of my paycheck. I told XXXX that he is illegally impersonating as a fake attorney. He proceeded to argue with me and the conversation we had escalated. XXXX forced me to give him my personal information and he refused after I told him I dont feel comfortable giving my personal information over the phone. I called back the company the following day and they refused to take care of the situation. XXXX also told me that I shouldve paid my debt instead of spending all my money. XXXX also refused to tell me his last name when I asked him. Jefferson Capital Systems llc removed the debt collection off my credit report and are still garnishing my wages.

To Whom It May Concern, On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a collections letter from Jefferson Capital with reference number XXXX. This letter claims a debt originating from XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX account number XXXX, dated XX/XX/XXXX, in the amount of {XXXX}. I would like to state that I have no knowledge or record of this alleged debt. Furthermore, as per Section 16.004 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, the statute of limitations on debt in Texas is four years. Considering this, the mentioned debt is well beyond the allowable timeframe for collection. I am unclear about the origin of this debt and why I am being contacted regarding this matter. Please provide a detailed validation of this debt, and if it's determined to be inaccurate, kindly ensure that all records related to this claim are corrected or removed. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution.

Had identity theft in XX/XX/2017. Reported to police. Thief caught and charged. Now, 3 years later, I'm getting debt collection on one of the illegally opened fraudulent accounts. The amount is {$590.00}. The original company was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, the debt collector is 'Jefferson Capital Systems ' . I recall speaking to XXXX, asked them to send me evidence and i.d . of credit applicant and to cease and desist. I did not receive any legal identity documents/furnishings, but it was taken off my credit report. Now, years later they are sending me collection notices, without any proof of my i.d . I had and still have a fraud alert active, and one caveat is that they need to call my personal phone for any credit applications. Which, clearly, they did not, but still approval the fraudulent application. Between myself and the authorities, we quelled 38 such credit applications. Now this one has appeared.

I have experience this 3 times inside of 2 years with 3 different carriers as my XXXX condition required 2 moves. This was a XXXX where I purchased the phones that claimed they would work in XXXX they did not- although there map of coverage and customer service claimed it was within the coverage areas. Purchased cell phone plan- cell phone provider was unable to meet the requirements of data services, coverage. Numerous calls to report missed calls, dropped calls, poor service or no service in areas that they claimed had service coverage. After months of calling customer service and complaining I cancelled my contract due to them not holding up there end of the contract- at that time I was told I could not do that and they would take immediate legal action. I figured since they said they were taking me to court I would n't have to do any of the filing and it was on them- surprise it went to collections.

It looks like Jefferson Capital purchased a date on a XXXX phone service bill. I had to close the phone service account with XXXX after my phone stopped working because they said my used phone should not have been activated for service and I would have to buy a new phone to continue to use the XXXX phone service. I asked them to close the account since I would rather have a different provider without this kind of headache. One month of service was around {$57.00}. So they must have let the account run for three months not even attached to a usable phone and with no one using the service for three months before closing the account and selling this fraudulent debt to Jefferson Capital. The XXXX agent on the phone must have not wanted to close my account under his name to avoid bad stats for his own job. I've already tried to dispute this account with XXXX and Jefferson Capitol separately, but to no avail.

First off, these people are contacting me for something that is n't mine. XXXX cell phone bill. I have XXXX of them on my credit report. They are not mine. I have challenged them and filed complaints. How can a person open XXXX accounts with XXXX in a year?? I do not know if someone opened these up in my name or if this is some kind of paperwork error, but these are not mine. I tried to explain that to the man that called me and he laughed at me, said it was n't his problem. He asked me how I intended to pay bill. I told him I was n't going to pay this because this is n't mine and it 's being disputed. He then told me they could take me to court and have it taken out of my paycheck. he called me a deadbeat, and refused to let me speak to a supervisor. Then the following day I received XXXX calls from them. I thought it was illegal to call more than twice? I 'm so sick of this. These accounts are not mine!

The request was submitted to cease communication from both numbers and they were notified a complaint would be made on the now three documented occasions of the release of private info.

I purchased this car loan in XXXX it has had an oil leak recall ever since.

Had to stop paying on the car because I kept having to put money into fixing it. Fast forward to XXXX the car transmission went out due to the oil leak. No one in that 4 to 5 years ever came to get the car. Nor did they send me any papers requesting information on the car. Now in XXXX in the last month, I started receiving calls about this car. The amount showed up recently for {$20000.00} I am now being asked to pay. The amount is incorrect considering I paid over 2 years {$450.00} a month. I have asked that this be removed from my credit report 1. Because this last month is the 1st I've heard of this account. 2. Because in the State of Texas the loan and collection is passed the statutes of limitations.

There is an old account that has been flagged as a charge-off and removed from my credit report. The collection agency ( Jefferson Capital ) has been calling me multiple times each day, with 2 of the calls being around 11 pm. They keep calling from multiple different numbers, and they have once tried announcing themselves as an IRS representative, prior to them stating that the address to mail payments to is XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX Minnesota, which upon further research, ended up being the address to Jefferson Capital. They have now sent a letter in the mail that shows an incorrect balance that is different from the balance XXXX shows. In the letter, it also includes them stating that I need to contact them, or else they will interpret failure to contact as an admittance of all of their information being correct, which I feel is an attempt by them to reset the legal clock of the time a debt expires.

They then said thank you and asked for my social again, I stated I was not comfortable giving that information and they said Im not able to talk to you then. This is misrepresentation, they gathered information about me under the pretense that I was going to be able to settle my debt, then did not allow me to do so. I told him I do not want any information from him other than, If I pay you {$350.00} will that settle the debt? He said he will not talk to me about any single detail without my social security number, continued to talk over me and then stopped talking, the call continued for five minutes in silence and then he hung up the phone :

Jefferson Financial is violating multiple sections of the FDCPA by falsely communicating information about an alleged, unvalidated debt to consumer reporting agencies. Additionally, the debt they are alleging to be mine is beyond the statute of limitations for legal action in the State of New Hampshire so I believe their erroneous reporting is an intentional tactic used to frustrate my attempts at obtaining credit in an effort to get me to simply pay their terms to " clear up '' my reports. To wit : Jefferson Financial is reporting an account with a balance of {$810.00} on my consumer reports. They are reporting themselves as the Original Creditor, are claiming the account as a " Revolving Credit '' account with " 1 Month '' terms rather than as a " Collection Account '' and are reporting continued late payments on a monthly basis as though I had a monthly payment agreement with them ( I do not ).

A XXXX XXXX employee told me that I was no longer under contract at the time I switched my account to XXXX XXXX XXXX. The month after I got 3 - {$200.00} charges for early termination. I attempted to argue the fact that the employee told me I was no longer under contract because I had reached my initial 2 years, per the contract details, but XXXX stated they had no record of the conversation. I have disputed these charges repeatedly, but I don't have a record of documentation, only phone conversations that XXXX claims don't exist. I had a reference number for that conversation, but they said in was invalid. I don't understand how they are able to get away with lying to their customers and ruining their credit record. My account has now been turned over to Jefferson Capital Systems and I explained to them that I am refusing to pay this balance because I never should have been charged those fees.

I contacted Jefferson Capital Systems to settle a debt and have it removed from my credit. We agreed to settle for {$500.00}. I paid {$100.00} towards the balance the same day and the balance was left at {$400.00}. I was laid off from my job and informed JCS that I do not have the money to finish the balance. I requested they hold my account until I find employment. It was agreed they would hold my account. On XXXX Jefferson Capital Systems re-reported my account using re-aging to all 3 credit bureaus and stating my account is delinquent. This dropped my score over XXXX points. This is illegal for JCS to re-age my account and after promising to hold my account, they re-reported it again. I would like for JCS to fix this on my credit report or I will pursue further action to sue for re-aging, re-aging is an illegal act due to FCRA Section 623 ( 5 ) ( A ). I will also report this to FTC.

I retrieved a copy of my credit report and found a new collection account listed. Jeff Cap Sys hasn't contacted me via email nor mail to inform of this new account which is a violation of the fdcpa law. Also, they are reporting a monthly obligation of XXXX on a collection account with a balance of XXXX which I have never spoken with this company to agree to any type of monthly obligation. I've requested Jeff Cap Sys to validate this file showing I owe the amount they're reporting to my credit every month but I haven't received a response. I don't owe this debt and this company is intentionally breaking the law by reporting a monthly obligation for a collection account. I'm needing assistance with holding this collection agency accountable for breaking several consumer reporting laws. You can not report a collection as an open account with a monthly obligation and you guys won't validate.

Company has not followed the credit reporting guidelines. The CFPBs debt collection rule requires debt collectors to take certain steps before reporting a debt to a credit reporting company. This company has neglected to send me any correspondence and/or any means of communication validating if this account belongs to me, prior to reporting to the credit bureaus. They further are fraudulently reporting on an account that has no merit, as I never had an account with XXXX or Jefferson Capital in XX/XX/2019 in the amount of {$2600.00}, not to mention they have waited seven ( 7 ) years to bring such a claim and have neve sent me any correspondence signed contracts, etc. They have not provided any original documentation to prove I have had an account with them through my many attempts to request this information, they have refused to provide any such documents and continuously harass me.

it seems between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, a new account in collections was added to my report. The collection agency is JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM. The original creditor was XXXX XXXX XXXX. I declared bankruptcy in XXXX and this was part of the creditors who were included in the bankruptcy. At the time, XXXX dropped my credit by a large amount with one creditor. Now, 15 years later, they have dropped me with the other creditor. What can I do about this? XXXX was my young daughter 's cell phone provider. She is now an adult with XXXX children. What can be done about this besides paying them off. I am in a XXXX from XXXX now and money is a problem. Also, that bill with XXXX i over XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX dropped it. So who is this new creditor, JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM? And how can they legally drop my credit score by this large amount when the debt was resolved with the bankruptcy?

It also states in 15 usc 1692g ( c ), that the failure to dispute the validity of a debt under this section may not be construed by any court as an admission of liability by the consumer. I also received a debt collection letter with multiple FDCPA violations which are listed. Each violation is up to {$1000.00} fine per violation according to 15 usc 1692k ( A ) ( 2 ) ( A ).

I dont even know if Jefferson Systems LLC is a real legitimate company as they can not be reached. The hard inquiry needs to be removed.

After talking to them for quite some time I was able to get it sorted out and took a screen shot of my XXXX account showing a paid in full status with {$0.00} balance on XX/XX/XXXX. Rep told me they would send a letter but a letter never came. In XXXX Jefferson Capital showed up on my credit report showing an account that they were collecting on from XXXX. I've disputed this account multiple times and each time they verify it as accurate. I recently was able to get the screen shot showing a zero balance off an old phone. When I disputed and included this screen shot they still verified the debt as accurate due to the submitted document being an image file and not a letter.

I am XXXX XXXX and I am submitting this complaint myself and there is no third party involved. Upon reviewing my updates the JEFFCAPSYS ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and JEFFERSNCP were found on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. I tried contacting XXXX and XXXX Credit Bureaus requesting a complete payment history with this account for me to review the exact date on which the late payments and collection were posted. Unfortunately, there was no successful resolution provided nor feedback heard from the concerned Bureaus. There was definitely an error on their part and failed to comply with air Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time set forth by law, and continued reporting of unverified information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes.

I had a bad debt show up on my credit report for {$2500.00} from a company 'Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC '. I did not recognize this company or recall owing a debt for this amount. I tried calling the company at the number listed on my credit report in XXXX of this year. I spoke with a representative in another country who was asking for my social security number. They told me that they bought the debt from a wireless cell phone provider. I refused to give them my social security number and asked to speak with a manager or someone that I could better communicate with due to the language barrier. The representative hung up on me. I do not owe this company money and I am unable to get this matter resolved or removed from my credit report. I am also getting letters from other third party company 's stating they own this same wireless cellular debt with different amounts due.

Back in 2017 I had my identity stolen and they charged a XXXX account using my information. From the account, XXXX sent the debt to collections before even reaching out to me ( which I had no information or access to the account ) and ever since then, the collection agency will call multiple times a year and sent letters about the amount owed. I have contacted the agency to tell them my information was stolen and sent them online police reports and that I should be fine now but they are still trying to collect. I have checked my credit report and there is no such outstanding balance/debt on my record so I am unsure why they keep sending me letters. The agency is called Jefferson Capital, with reference # XXXX and this has been ongoing since 2017. If there was an actual outstanding balance, it should show on my credit report and affect my credit but I am not seeing anything.

I have disputed the account for XXXX through the credit bureaus. The results came back as meet FCRA requirements. XXXX need to provide documentation showing that I opened an account with them in XXXX XXXX. I never opened an account with XXXX in XXXX. I am asking for them to delete this account from my credit reports if they can not provided documentation showing that I opened an account with them in XXXX. And how can I owe on an account that I never opened in XXXX. And also to note, I have the proof showing that they removed the account from my credit and then put it back on my credit stating that I dispute and meet fcra requirments. This is not fair for them to report false information on my credit saying I opened an auto loan and XXXX. I never opened a loan in XXXX with XXXX or any auto lot. Please can this be resolved? I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

I attended XXXX XXXX College ( a proprietary school ). I was taking prerequisite classes to enter their business program. They misrepresented themselves and stated that I would not have to pay till I started the actual business program. While in the prerequisite classes, they then announced that the business program was no longer being offered. They offered other programs for me to enter, and as I was thinking over their offer, the entire school closed down. They were owned by XXXX Colleges, and I heard that all their schools closed. Today, I found out that they are reporting on my credit report that I owe them a debt ( that was sold to a debt collector ; Jefferson Capital Systems ). They are claiming that I owed the school money. I feel it is the other way around, they wasted by time by making false promises they could not keep and eventually the entire school closed down.

There is this account on my XXXX, XXXX and XXXX credit files that I do not recognize, the account is showing that it was discharged in bankruptcy but the problem is that I never had an account with this company called XXXX/XXXX, there is no phone number being reported and it says that the account was opened in 2014.

I know this cant be right because like I said I never had an account with this company.

XXXX for several years have been contacting me only via XXXX mail and i have several, several times contacted them over these years to advise them, that i have never had an account in my life with XXXX. When i have called about this " debt '' in question the typical answer why they can't find me in their system is because the account is old and the records are purged. which is bogus. it's because they have no such account with any documentation from me. XXXX failed to ask XXXX XXXX the collection agency ( XXXX capital ) to provide any solid documents showing me every signing up for an account with them of any kind. Because there are not any. i unfortunately can not provide you with any dates or details as i have none. thank you so much for any assistance you can provide.

Jefferson capital has 1 accounts currently listed on my consumer report which is a direct violation of the FDCPA. I am refusing to pay this alleged debt and demand that this company cease and desist with any further negative reporting on my consumer report or they will be sued in federal court for trying to collect on a debt that I do not owe them. I have never contracted with this company and demand that they provide proof that I signed a contract with them and agreed to pay them any money for the alleged debt. Any further attempt to collect is a federal crime under 18 USC 894 as this company is attempting to collect on an extension credit. Since they will not be able to prove that I owe them any money, I demand these accounts be immediately removed from my consumer report as this information is harming my credit reputation.

This item popped up on my credit report out of the blue over 5 years later in XX/XX/XXXX. I don't feel this is right and given the timing, this item should be removed from all XXXX of my credit reports. Due to the time sensitivity, I am hoping that this will expedite the removal process from the other 2 credit bureaus, XXXX and XXXX. Once again, XXXX has already deleted the item. Please help.

Earlier this year, I received a call from someone asking if I could verify myself, I refused so they said they were unable to assist me. I then received another call asking me to verify myself again, I then asked them to verify who I was since they were calling me. I was then told that if I do not verify who I am that they are unable to assist me. About month or so later ( I believe XX/XX/2019 ) I noticed a new negative account on my credit report. So, I was never advised that this was an attempt to collect a debt, nor was I advised that I could dispute this debt, nor was I offered any verification of this debt. I still have this debt on my credit report LISTED TWICE FROM TWO DIFFERENT DEBTORS as if there is more than one account in question. However, I have not authorized any chargers nor have I signed any credit agreements for the credit card debt in question.

I recently pulled all three of my credit reports, XXXX XXXX and XXXX. After reviewing them I noticed a collection account in the amount of {$570.00}. I am not sure how this has come about. The company listed name is Jefferson capital. I have never had any business dealings with this company whatsoever. I have also disputed this account several times and continued to get automated email responses stating that the account is accurate and will continue to report as such. I have requested for the company to send real verified documentation showing that I am responsible for the bill, but they have yet to do so. I am working full time and I am also in the process of trying to purchase a new car but my credit score has been severely impacted in a negative way due to the inaccurate collection that is listed on my report.

My credit score dropped dramatically though I have been paying all the bills on time since I arrived at US in XXXX. I never had any issue with late payment or debt. My credit score has been excellent except this happened. When I checked my credit report, I found out that there are incorrect address ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX ), phone number ( XXXX XXXX ) and debt on XXXX account ( XXXX ) which I never opened. I do not know how someone got my info and stole my identity. XXXX did not check the info securely and easily opened the account with someone's stolen information. I have never experienced identity theft issue and very complicated. Now XXXX sent it to Jefferson debt collection amount {$5400.00} that appeared on my credit report. It caused a lot of stress to a father of XXXX, who struggles to pay the rent, bill, family expenses every month.

I have previously owed XXXX XXXX as a result of switching to a different carrier, My account was sold to XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$240.00} and it was opened on XX/XX/XXXX and currently verified to them on the phone as of today XX/XX/XXXX. On the other hand, another agency JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM opened an account on XX/XX/XXXX stating I owed XXXX XXXX {$360.00} which is {$120.00} more than XXXX XXXX which took first ownership of the collections account to begin with. I believe that I have no knowledge of JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM made an attempt to collect the same payment type but adding more than the previous collection agency. hopefully this is not a result of Identity theft. It does not make sense to pay two ( 2 ) collection agency under one account. In the event it was found to be fraudulent, I am pursuing legal action against JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM

I work hard to keep all my contact information up to date on my credit reports, which show my current phone number and address, yet these people have not notified me in writing or validated that this is my debt. I have had XXXX for over 5 years so I have no idea what they are referring to. It is so disgusting that these collection agencies just get to do what they want and ruin people 's credit. I sent them a certified letter that arrived last Thursday XX/XX/XXXX, and yet here they are today adding this garbage to my XXXX report despite me stating in the letter I was disputing this and to tell the 3 bureaus that.

This debt appeared on my credit report. The company sent the debt to collections without my prior knowledge that I owed the debt. I reached out to the company in an attempt to resolve the issue. The company employees sent me through multiple channels over a period of a few months, none of which solved my issues. I attempted numerous times to dispute the inaccuracies through the appropriate credit bureau. Each time the dispute process was over, the company would add the debt to my credit report again, thus starting the origination date over. This prolongs the process of getting the debt removed. Furthermore, Ive reached out to the company to provide me the details of the account in order to prove the debt belongs to me, to which the company offers no response or they respond by telling me that Im not a current customer, they cant locate an account in my name.

JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYST is reporting that I have an open balance of XXXX on three of my credit reports. I have never received any corresonpondce from this company informing me that I have an outstanding balance explaining the nature of the debt. The debt balance has initially been from XXXX that was a dispute that while was XXXX in XXXX and was charged-off sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX, which I disputed the amount owed with several times. In XX/XX/XXXX, the company removed the balance from my credit report. I recently pulled my credit report and seen that In XX/XX/XXXX, JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYST place this on my account as a past due account, which is inaccurate information and is reporting a of XXXX is a revolving line of credit. I would be grateful for any assistance to resolve this matter because I won the dispute with XXXX XXXX XXXX for faulty collection practices.

In XX/XX/XXXX I cancel my service with XXXX XXXX, I paid my account in full. I had a number of cell phones which I physically returned to the XXXX store in XXXX, IL. The manager of the store said he wasn't able to provide a return receipt as they were not defective, I left the devices with him in the store. A few years later I received a collection letter stating I owed XXXX. I've responded to each and every collector of this account that I do not own anything as the account was paid in full and the equipment was returned to the store. There are no amendments to the contract that states XXXX can add additional fee 's in the case of equipment only to the outstanding balance of the account, which was paid in full. The current collection agency is falsely reporting the account was active in XX/XX/XXXX which is not correct and I have disputed this claim.

XX/XX/XXXX - I obtained a FICO XXXX credit report. On this credit report, XXXX XXXX XXXX lists a debt in collections for the amount of {$610.00}. They claim that the original creditor is XXXX XXXX and that the debt was assigned to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. They list an account # of xxxxxxxxxxXXXX. I have never had an account with XXXX XXXX and didn't know what to do. On this same day I met with a financial professional provided by the Department of Defense to assist servicemembers with their finances. This financial professional called the fraud department at XXXX XXXX with me. The fraud department searched for any unpaid debt under both my name and social security number and found no evidence that I have ever had an account with XXXX XXXX. Since there is no record that I have ever had an account with XXXX XXXX, I do not owe them any money.

Hello, I have repeatedly disputed a fraudulent charged off account that is showing on my credit reports. As soon as my wallet was lost, I immediately contacted all my cards and canceled them and when I begin to see fraudulent accounts showing up on my credit report I contacted the police. I have worked very hard for my stellar credit, however I can't seem to get this inaccurate information removed permanently from my report. This company has an account that is fraudulent and they are reporting it as if it was mines. I have tried everything, but they still will not do whats right. This company is bullying me and tarnishing my credit even after Ive pleaded with them to seek the truth and do the right thing and remove this fraudulent charge off of my account and stop reporting it to the three major bureaus. Please help me. The next step is legal action

The debt collection company JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM continues to change the start date of the debt ... the XXXX XXXX debt was reported in XXXX originally ... I do not receive statementS from JEFFERSON CAPTAL SYSTEM monthly anymore ... they send a statement once every six months or so and then change the beginning date on my credit report to the date they have mailed the current statement ... this debt was supposed to be removed by XXXX XXXX in XXXX because the young men at the store ( a franchise ) were investigated for " improper account manipulation to gain commission '' and found to have fraudulently reported this information to XXXX XXXX ...

I had a XXXX account many years ago and closed it down. I was given some charges after the fact without notification. They sold it without notifying m e to Jefferson Capital Systems. After that, interest began to accrue without my knowledge. It grew to {$310.00} as of 3 days ago when I found out about it on my credit karma report. It has been over 3 years since they filed it. I 've never received a call or letter. I also ca n't contact Jefferson Capital Systems. Their online site only solicits messages from corporate interests and ignored my messages. I 've tried to contact them through any # or email or site I could find, but it is impossible. I 've never had an otherwise unpaid payment as per my his tory. I had a student loan which I paid in full before the end of graduating, so I do n't want this to have a negative effect on my limited credit

My complaints caused the phone company to suggest updating my cell which I did and didn't improve my service so with multiple complaints of dropped calls and inability to make calls XXXX released me from contractual obligation the failed upgrade put me in.I wasn't under contract prior to upgrade and was month to month until the update they recommended Since I was released and needing service I found a new carrier. It was when I had already opened new service that I called XXXX to see if I was expected to return the old phone and the rep on the phone didn't know about my account and told me I would be charged? I purchased a new phone and service and XXXX expected me to honor the contract I was told I was released from?? I was a customer since the mid 1980 's and am disappointed!

Jefferson Capital Systems repeatedly sent letters to collect a debt so often that a member of my household, not myself, felt that it would " help '' me get them to stop attempting to contact me if she made a payment on the debt. This debt is over 7 years old and had already fallen off of my credit report, yet Jefferson Capital Systems still repeatedly sent me letters. Now that someone, who is not me, tried to do something kind to help me the debt has been reopened and sent on to a different collections agency. I knew this debt was old and that it was no longer reflected on my credit report. I did not make the payment and I would n't have allowed the payment to be made had I been aware. Jefferson Capital Systems had no right to continue to send me harassing letters until someone who did ; t know better finally caved and made a payment.

I have never heard of nor from this company and I have never entered into any legal agreement or contract to do business with them. Furthermore ; the debt they claim I owe them was illegally purchased and furnished on my credit file without my consent nor an opportunity to verify or validate debt per FDCPA. The debt has been previously deemed unverifiable and was removed from my credit file due to another illegal purchase once before. I have reached out to them and have asked them to please remove the unverifiable negative item from my credit reports and have been ignored so far. Please resolve the situation as soon as possible.

It's showing that XX/XX/XXXX they have this account, and this account was written off by XXXX and I received a letter stating it was written off XX/XX/XXXX so why is this reporting that the account was in collection as of XX/XX/XXXX. They re-aged the account incorrectly on my report. Also on my credit report they have the account number as XXXX and I don't have any record of this account number. I would like the open date fixed to the correct date or they need to remove this false information from my report with their company since I have no record of doing any business with them Also, on XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with XXXX, and they were sending me a 1099C form removing the balance owed so how is this account now with a different company

I was contacted by Jefferson Capital Debt Collection company about a XXXX account that I had been in arrears, and was recently paid off in the last 60 days, from phone number XXXX. The debt collection company representative disagreed with me about the fact that I had paid the account off, and further stated that due to the age of the account that they knew that they could not sue me for the amount in question by them. They further continued to argue abusively toward me that they had never received the settlement amount that they purposed via the U.S. Mail. I advised them that they were or could be ... in violation of the T.C.P.A. laws for calling my cell phone, and to not ever call me again, because their telephone operator/representative kept yelling in my ear lies about me not paying their account they represented in full.

InXX/XX/XXXX, I applied for a XXXX account and I didn't know about the predatory interest rate that came with the credit account. I became the only working member in the household of XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX due to my husband becoming ill and could not afford the payments. The account was late for 3 months then sent to collections/charged off. On my credit report XXXX has 3 different reporting, consisting of account # XXXX, # XXXX and JeffCapsys XXXX, which is collection agency. I agreed to settle the account with them for {$600.00} and they sent a letter for paid in full. They then listed the balance ( {$730.00} ) of the account on my credit report instead XXXX the account as promised. The reporting of when charged is changed twice and then listed as this year instead of XX/XX/XXXX. Please help me to resolve this issue with XXXX XXXX.

On XX/XX/28 I was denied for my XXXX XXXX credit card ( which Ive made payment on in a settlement agreement ) XXXX XXXX housing property manager said it was listed on my credit report as a landlord tenant. The system XXXX XXXX Renewal Uses is Safe rent solutions and they provided me with a copy of the report and told me in their system it is shown as a credit card but XXXX XXXX denied me and listed as tenant/landlord. That is NOT a tenant/landlord is is a Credit Card and XXXX XXXX XXXX says their system identifies it as a credit card and they dont know why XXXX XXXX put it as landlord lord tenant and they couldnt call XXXX XXXX to tell them I would have to.

XXXX had submitted a claim to my credit score but I'm out of believe {$2500.00} and they were removed off of my credit last year because it was teams not owed. Between XXXX employee benefits of {$250.00} early termination fee coverage for up to four lines plus we had the bill paid off. also around the same time that we went through bankruptcy so this would have also been included in bankruptcy if there was a balance left. I have attached the bankruptcy document with the list of creditors that were included. when XXXX was removed from my credit they went and turned around and submitted it to another collection agency without listing it as being through them and did not disclose that it was XXXX. I tried repeatedly to get those taken off my credit and claimed that it was on bankruptcy documents and it still has not been removed.

The credit reporting agency XXXX XXXX and XXXX would remove them and my score would begin to recover then it would appear again as a collection I would dispute and it would be removed. I now have been combating this account as Jefferson Capital Systems. The bureaus will no longer allow me to dispute the entries and I have repeatedly sent letters requesting debt validation and all I get are letters for payment plans. There are 2 accounts onXXXX for XXXX and one for $ XXXX. These are NOT MY accounts. Please help me remove these from my reports and stop them from placing them on my reports. They are trashing my credit score and fico scores and these aren't my accounts. I never signed for or authorized any account with XXXX XXXX.

I've sent multiple letters to this agency about this not being my account. After being advised by identitytheft.gov, I've completed and sent a fraud affidavit via certified mail. I can see they received it, but nothing has changed. See supporting documents. Even the USPS tracking. My official complaint is against JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS. My information was used to obtain an apartment, cell phone, and an auto loan with my ex-partner. I am a victim of identity theft and have put this off for too long. I've completed the proper steps, 1. notify creditors 2. police report 3. informed the state of Texas. The individual I've suspected for this theft is now deceased, and the police department said to contact the federal trade commission to seek relief. These companies disregard laws and dont care whos credit or lives they impact.

Jefferson Capital Systems is re-aging an old debt from XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$2600.00}. I only found this out by being notified through my credit monitoring service two weeks ago that a " new collection was added ''. I have not received any notices or letters regarding this account. The collection has not been on my credit report in years and when I viewed my report, it shows as a new debt as of XX/XX/2019 on all three credit reporting agencies. This is completely false. I have sent a debt validation letter to Jefferson Capital and though it has not been 30 days since their receipt, I feel it necessary to pursue all actions available to me because the act of re-aging an account is illegal and negatively affecting my credit worthiness. I request this be deleted from all major credit reporting agencies immediately.

The tenant got in touch with me through the property management company to let me know about this. Jefferson capital is being deceptive because they were sent the information over two years ago. I am including the same police report that i sent to the company 2 years ago.

Disputed information with XXXX in reference to XXXX XXXX XXXX. Account was sold to JCS. JCS repoed my vehicle on XX/XX/20, auctioned on XX/XX/20. I explained to XXXX JCS ( Jefferson Capital Services ) had my new address and repoed the truck, as well JCS intentionally sent the redemption letter to my address, through regular mail ( Not certified- per GA Law ). As well XXXX XXXX is reporting the repo ands showing I never made any payments and reporting the full amount of the contract. I reported the same information to XXXX ( who has deleted the file ) as well to XXXX ( no response yet ). I sent XXXX screen shots of payments, which showed the original amount of the contract and they still updated the information as Accurate. I personally believe they did no investigation and just updated it without reviewing.

Jefferson Capital Systems LLC is reporting a delinquent collection account to the major credit bureaus that does not belong to me and is reporting incorrectly as if it does.

I have yet to receive any form of validation of this alleged debt. XXXX Mailed XX/XX/21 ) According to the FCRA, Jefferson Capital Systems LLC has violated my rights as a consumer and I am requesting legal action to remove this account immediately.

They first told me I had a XXXX student loan in collections, there was a judgement against me, and that my wages would be garnished. I explained to him that 1. I am currently in school and as far as I know, all of my loans are in good standing. 2. I have paid Jefferson Capital a charge off in the past so I think they are targeting me because of that. 3. The first time I actually spoke with a person on the phone, around the XXXX of XXXX, I asked them to please put sometihing in wiritng for me. They claimed that they had. They have not. I was told that they had a judgement and that my wages would be garnished. As I said i am in school and according to XXXX all of my loans are in good standing.

I've sent multiple letters to this agency about this not being my account. After being advised by identitytheft.gov, I've completed and sent a fraud affidavit via certified mail. I can see they received it, but nothing has changed. See supporting documents. Even the USPS tracking. My official complaint is against XXXX XXXX. My information was used to obtain an apartment, cell phone, and an auto loan with my ex-partner. I am a victim of identity theft and have put this off for too long. I've completed the proper steps, 1. notify creditors 2. police report 3. informed the state of Texas. The individual I've suspected for this theft is now deceased, and the police department said to contact the federal trade commission to seek relief. These companies disregard laws and dont care whos credit or lives they impact.

On or about XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, I received in my home mailbox a bill addressed to me from something called Jefferson Capital Systems , LLC. It said their " client '' was willing to accept {$950.00} on a debt I owe of {$2300.00}. It offered " convenient '' ways to pay various amounts via credit card or check. I called the toll-free number on the document. The person said he could not " access ( my ) account '' unless I gave the last four digits of my Social Security number. I refused and suggested to the young man that he seek honorable employment. What happens when these people send bills to some of the many Americans - many of them low-income - who simply pay whatever bills they receive in the mail?. I hope you will prosecute the people responsible for this operation to the fullest extent of the law.

She informed me that her company purchased the alleged debt, and I now owe them. I asked her to supply me with the verifiable evidence of a contact between JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS and I.

I'm unaware of when XXXX sold the debt, but on XX/XX/XXXX I was sent a letter by Jefferson Capital Systems stating that I owed a debt {$2700.00} to them when I was never in a contract with them. Also within the letter there was use of obscene and profane langauge in the letter that they did not have the power to " sue '' me. The use of this language left me emotioonally distraught and I know that underneath Fair Debt Collecton Practices Act 15 USC 1692d ( 2 ) protects me from this.

The account is for, XX/XX/XXXX XXXX company is with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The original account is with XXXX XXXX for the total charge of {$1100.00}. However, this account was opened under an individual by the name of XXXX. I believe this individual has victimized myself with a type of identity fraud. The account was opened with four lines with the contract under this individual as prime ownership. However, when the bill was not paid, I managed to have all negative charges pinned to my personal credit. The actions I have taken were mailing a dispute letter to the provider, as well as to the credit bureau itself. My attempts have not been successful and I am still stuck with the debt collection on my credit report. I currently use XXXX as my phone provider, and the debt seems incomprehensible. Thank you.

In XX/XX/2018, we were contacted by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX about a debt of {$150.00} to XXXX XXXX. We explained to them that it was not our debt. After a discussion with an extremely unpleasant gentleman, it was made evident that my son ( with the same name as mine ) was responsible for the debt. The gentleman demanded that I give him all my son 's personal information. I could not, for two reasons : 1 ) My son and I have been estranged for several years ; I did not have the information. 2 ) This company fosters and nurtures all that is evil and disrespectful. I have never witnessed such contempt, harassment and threats against me and my credit as I did from this company. Because I couldn't give him the information, he put it on my credit report as my debt, with the full understanding that it wasn't.

The debt was sold from XXXX XXXX which the company is no longer in business. They reported that I owed an amount and apparently the company who bought it was Jefferson Capital system. This company has been handling the account inappropriately. I had a court date because they took me to court for garnishment that I wasn't even privy to and I even had a letter stating that they had dropped the garnishment. I tried to get this overturned with a court but unfortunately it is harder than it seems with the Judgment going into default because I didn't know they were going to court. I showed up the last times in court thinking that they were going to show up and they never even showed up. I have tried multiple times to reach out to the lawyer that's on this account and he's never not once contacted me back.

This practice of re-aging an old debt is specifically prohibted by Federal and State law. The alleged bad debt from the original creditor started in XXXX. Jefferson Capital reported that old debt as a new collection account in XXXX of XXXX. I disputed it over 4 times with all XXXX bureaus and Jefferson Capital keeps reporting the information they know to be false. I will upload a letter of admission by Jefferson Capital that the debt is so old that it's barred by the statue of limitations ( 4 years in California ). Then, I will upload a current copy of my XXXX credit report that shows the debt as new, XXXX of XXXX.

I received a letter on XXXX XXXX, 2015 from Jefferson Capital dated XXXX XXXX, 2015 ( attached ). On XXXX XXXX, 2015 I mailed a certified letter ( attached ) via USPS certified mail ( attached- received XXXX XXXX, 2015 ) disputing the validity of this debt and requesting validation as I do not agree I owe this debt. My requests are very clear and very legal. Jefferson has failed to provide me ANY documentation like requested in my certified letter ( which we have proof they received within the 30-day notice ) yet have tarnished my credit by falsely reporting this information to the credit bureaus. Because they have violated by rights by improper reporting/ defamation and disregard to my right of validation and dispute, I am requesting immediate removal of this item from my credit reports.

I noticed on my consumer report that Jefferson Capital was reporting on my account. I have never consented to contract with them, so they have breached my privacy by obtaining my private information. I sent a letter to Jefferson Capital on XX/XX/2021 asking them to produce a valid contract that I have with them. I also sent along a document for them so fill out and sign back under the penalty of perjury, which they completely ignored. They have since sent me a letter on XX/XX/2021 with none of the information I requested. In their correspondence, they violated several of my Federally protected consumer rights pursuant to 15 USC. This is causing me great stress and harm and also a breach of my privacy as I never consented to contract with Jefferson Capital, or any third party debt collector.

I recently had an old debt roughly 10 years old reappear on my credit report. The request for payment is not from the original debtors.

From my limited understanding, someone opened a XXXX account under my name on XX/XX/2020 and spent {$3400.00}. The original creditor is XXXX. Currently the creditor is Jefferson Capital System. One of their debt collector agencies contacted me a few months ago. I informed them the account was not mine. The account was opened under an email, physical address, and phone number that did not belong to me. XXXX has already blocked the account from my credit score report. XXXX denied my request to block the account from my credit report. I filed my dispute with XXXX today. XXXX requested further information from me in order to block the account. They were not specific as to what information they required. I hope that this complaint will help me continue to contest this fraudulent account.

Collection company XXXX called me XX/XX/19 to collect a debt. I was at work so I asked them to call me back after work on Monday. They didn't call back so I made a call to them on XX/XX/19 in regards to this debt. A gentleman answered the phone and verified my information. He asked about settling the payment for XXXX. I told him I was unable to do that because I am a single mother of the children. Based on my finances I could make a {$500.00} payment to satisfy the account. I wasn't able to make payments due to my financial hardship. He was pressing to set up a payment plan which I told him several times I was unable to do. Then he got upset and told me that if I was unable to do this then he will write that I am refusing to settle the debt and they will garnish my wages then hung up on me.

I have sent multiple validation requests including statements stating that the only accepted correspondence is email or via Mail to Jefferson Capital. Instead they have refused to validate the debt and they have begun to call a number from over 13 years ago that belongs to my XXXX XXXX XXXX grandma. They are calling her multiple times a day and leaving messages. They are not identifying themselves and I have not lived there in over 13 years. The fact that they are ignoring my requests and are now harassing a XXXX XXXX XXXX woman is disgusting. In addition, due to not being able to validate the debt and reporting incorrect information across all three bureaus is grounds from removal from my credit report. I collect protected veteran XXXX benefits and this company is infringing on my rights.

An account with XXXX XXXX that was opened up in XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$1900.00} was deleted from my credit report in XX/XX/XXXX due to fraud. Now XX/XX/XXXX this same account from XXXX was put back on my credit report as a collection with a collection agency Jefferson Capital Systems with all three bureaus stating this account was opened XX/XX/XXXX which is definitely inaccurate information reporting and the account should have never been put back on my credit file in the first place.

This is damagaing my credit and I am in the process of purchasing a house but with this collection on my credit I am unable to obtain financing for a home.

Around XXXX of XXXX I had a XXXX XXXX account that I was unable to pay and it went to collections.

Also, I paid off a loan with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX of XXXX and they reported the payment 30 days late. I made a satisfactory payment in XXXX of XXXX and paid the remainder of the loan in XX/XX/XXXX. I was not late in my payment. Please also have that removed.

Be advised this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent in pursuant to the Fair Credit Collection Practices ACT, 15 USC 1692G SEC.809 ( 8 ), stating your claim is disputed and validation is requested. This is NOT a request for " verification '' or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to XXXX. I respectfully request your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you. At this time I will also inform you that your offices have reported invalidated information to my credit reports. This action constitutes fraud under both Federal and State Laws.

Hi, thank you for accepting my complaint and for what you do. XXXX kept sending me billing notices for a mysterious order/item ( s ) and they refused to give me statements or the bill for them. I made requests in email and I have their emailed responses. They even told me that they can't find an account for me ( see their email ). They eventually put it on my credit report for {$110.00} and I disputed it and showed the evidence that it wasn't my bill and the entry was removed. Years later, they gave the debt to JEFFERSON CAPITAL SY who refuses to remove it from my credit report. I hadn't ordered anything from XXXX and they never showed me a bill or receipts. It isn't my debt. Please investigate and correct this. Please tell me how to submit the emails between me and XXXX thank you

XXXX XXXX Offices says I owe {$670.00} to Jefferson Capital System XXXX XXXX. They have a court hearing scheduled as well. I have not received any full information about this {$670.00}. I do not know where this account is from. However, my first response was - went to call them ASAP to know what is this claim about, but it directs you to their site to settle the payment. And so I did, I submitted my payment plan on their site. But, I did not receive any call or confirmation. So, months later, I called again and their system is the same, it directs you to their site. This time, I emailed them to ask more about this claim, but as of today, I still have not received any information or phone call from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I think this is a scam and Im a victim of their false credit reporting.

XXXX has not shown me any documentation that states these accounts are correct. What else can I do to have these accounts removed?

Jefferson Capital continues to report an account on my credit report that doesn't belong to me. I have disputed this debt several times through the credit bureaus but the account info keeps coming back and reported as accurate. In addition I have been harassed bullied and sued by Jefferson Capital about this debt. I was sued 2 times and won the case each time. It was proven in court on XX/XX/XXXX and again on XX/XX/XXXX that I do not owe this debt and the case was dismissed with prejudice by the court. As of XXXX XX/XX/XXXX this account is continuing to be reported on my credit report. This account needs to be removed from all 3 credit reports because it has been proven in the court of law that the debt doesn't belong to me. I will like this debt removed from my credit report.

Jefferson Capital Systems severally tried to coarse and induce me to pay a debt that I do not owe and have subsequently reported it on my Credit Profile which is currently impeding on my ability to gain any measurable job and credit. They have deliberately ignored my letter to them, demanding validation of the debt and any contractual agreement with them bearing my name, signature, date of birth. Furthermore, they have proceeded to sue me in the XXXX XXXX Civil Court, GA in order to place a public record on my credit profile for a debt that I do not owe to them, thereby, further halting my abilities to move forward to provide for myself and my family. Jefferson Capital Systems must remove the negative report from my credit and rescind the court filing with deliberate speed.

.Jefferson Capital systems is actively trying to collect a debt {$470.00} for XXXX that is from XXXX and was a charge off in XXXX. Jefferson 2 years later XXXX starts collection process reports collection debt on my credit report. Montana state law states debt collection must stop and cease 5 years after debt was aquired! It's been 9 years when debt originated XXXX! Need this off credit report ASAP and that my credit report be updated accurately and report reflects score that should have been positive score since XXXX before putting this on credit report in first place! This has effected my ability to get loans at lower interest rates or refinance current loans!! Jefferson Capital Systems is breaking the law by actively trying to collect a debt that is almost 10 years old!!

I received my order and someone else had bought the same item as a gift, so right away returned that item from my order, they would n't exchange or credit it and it was in perfect new condition, they said it was opened but it was NOT opened. I tried repeatedly to work with them but they kept the merchandise I returned ; and still would n't credit the account. I told them I would pay for only what I owe and they sent a bill that was n't up to date so I called them again after several prior attempts but they refused to work with me. Now after they ruined my credit I told them if they agree to take it off I will pay the amount that I owe but they still refused ... .not sure what else I am supposed to do. Its not right to expect me to pay for an item I do n't want and returned.

The Debt was resolved by XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2022 file # XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Acct # XXXX, the creditor was deleted on that day. Under the guidelines it was inaccurate or wrong or fraudulent information. Presumably, the regulations promulgated under the CPRA will contain a similar provision. The VCDPA does not specify how personal information is to be deleted. But also, not RE-INSERTED creditor under another company to damage credit once it has been deleted. XXXX XXXX was in violation after deleting the account and then reassigning the account to a collection agency Jefferson Capital Systems Acct # XXXX. After knowing the account was fraud. On XX/XX/2022 XXXX also deleted XXXX XXXX acct # XXXX from credit report which I have enclosed copies of deletion from credit.

I co-signed for this car for an exboyfriend who made one payment and stole the car and disappeared since XX/XX/2019. I have literally no idea what happened to him or the car. I had heard from a mutual friend he said the car was repossessed. I was NEVER contacted about any debt collection or had opportunity to dispute and remove myself from liability from the car being stolen and repossessed. I have attempted to dispute and reach out telling them what happened and they did not correct the amount owed after the supposed repossession according to the credit reports. I wasnt given a fair chance to dispute and resolve this without being given any kind of notice of this debt. I do not believe this amount owed is correct either. Company did not validate anything after I disputed.

I wrote a letter requesting a copy of the accountholders agreement to verify the debt which I would have signed back to XXXX XXXX XXXX within the 30 days.40 days come and went and I never received a response. At this point I figured they could not supply the required documentation and left it alone. As of XXXX XXXX 2016, Jefferson Capital Group has now requested a summons from the court in order to solicit a judgment against me for this unverified debt for which the agency they hired failed to answer the requested letter I sent. According to research this tactic is how they get judgments against consumers which can negatively affect there financials.

My credit report has a collection on it that is false in every way. The claim is made by Jefferson Capital System XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, MN. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was opened by me on XX/XX/XXXX and charged off on XX/XX/XXXX, over three years ago. Jefferson has put on my credit report that I opened on XX/XX/XXXX and the account is still open, this is not true. They are stating I owe {$690.00}, also false, when in fact the original amount was {$300.00}. and charged off by original creditor. Further more I have seen no paperwork, statements, or any other correspondence from Jefferson Capital at all. I only noticed this as it was on my credit report as of XX/XX/XXXX. The info they have placed on my report as debt collection, open account is false, and I need this removed.

My identity was stolen, it was reported and taken care of. I received a collections from Jefferson Capital Systems saying I owe XXXX money. I advised them I have never had a XXXX account. I asked for a debt verification and they denied to provide me that information. I have requested it twice, and they will not send me a verification that the debt is mine. This was with another collections company and I disputed it with them as the debt not mine, it was removed. This debt appeared with a new company a year and a half after it was removed. I have called XXXX and they have advised me they don't have any account information for me. I have been on a battle to dispute this debt endlessly with XXXXefferson Capital and they are refusing to comply with a verification request.

XXXX, reporting as " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' is reporting old debt as new. Old debt of {$2900.00} is more than XXXX XXXX XXXX and should not be reported to credit. Said delinquent date is from XXXX. I then reopened a new line with XXXX in XXXX and have had the same line since. They are now reporting old debt is new and marking delinquent date of XXXX instead of XXXX. I have written them several times to dispute and instead send me negotiations. When I call them they give me a run around and representatives hang up on me. I have tried every way and no success. I have uploaded a picture so it can be seen that I currently have a line open with XXXX and it is my current phone number. Also, please note account number. Old debt has different phone and account number. Please help.

I have not had any business dealings with any of these companies and have been disputing these fraudulently acquired collections as identity fraud for months. I am filing this complaint requesting assistance in having the collection of these accounts stopped and deleted from the bureaus permanently, as they have negatively impacted my ability to get home financing. The reporting is inconsistent and stating the debt is {$890.00} with one bureau and {$270.00} with the other two. If this can not be rectified soon, I will be forced to pursue civil action as this violates my Fair Credit Reporting rights.

Ive used a credit repair service to fix this as well. Yet its still on my credit and nothing provided to me justifying the amount. I do not owe {$1000.00} to XXXX.

It claims the date of the debt is XX/XX/2020 as listed on all three bureaus. I did not and have not engaged in any such contract or credit with Jefferson Capital and did not enter into and such collection status for any such account at the XX/XX/2020 Date. They have not sent any due diligence or correspondence regarding this alleged debt. The account date listed is erroneous and a violation of FDCPA.

I submitted an investigation letter, specifically requesting certain creditors. My request was sent on XX/XX/2020. Around XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter stating that XXXX refuses to do any further investigation unless provided with proof. The problem with this response is as follows : 1. The creditor ( s ) have not validated the veracity of the records. Obviously, thats why theres a inquiry. 2. The responsibility of this institution is to provide accurate records to third parties. Obviously, theres a gap in that directive. 3. This institution is obligated by law to investigate, require proof from the creditor, that validates their record. There are gross disparities in this system. Not to mention discriminatory practices based on race, sex, and economic status.

Jefferson Capital System is reporting a debt that was involved in identity theft and fraud under my name. Im not aware of any such debt. As I never received any correspondence by this debt collector. Instead they reported this debt to the credit report agencies. Im requesting under an original contract and an actual signature that shows 100 % verifiable proof under the FCRA with 100 % accuracy that they have the LEGAL right to report this debt. If they are not able to provide 100 % verifiable proof and accuracy with my actual signature and a contract agreement the reporting should effectively be removed immediately from all credit reporting agencies promptly. Further reporting will result in me seeking legal remedy for violating my rights in the statues governed.

Jefferson Capital Systems Llc/Jefferson Capital Llc tradeline appears on my credit file with a balance of {$1400.00}. The company reported a date opened XX/XX/XXXX and a reported delinquency date of XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX ; no closed date. This is a second party account with no adequate proof provided to me showing my obligations to pay the alleged debt. After repeated discussions with representatives the agency was made aware of my vehement disagreement with and the unwillingness to cooperate with a resolution. The account was disputed via the credit reporting agencies on XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX ( re-investigation ).

When i contacted them they said that they could not speak to me about the account because my name isnt the name on the account. Well, that is obvious. The supervisor XXXX said he can not help me and he just hung up on me. This is illegal and just rude.

Jefferson Capital bought XXXX XXXX bought XXXX XXXX, And XXXX XXXX already removed the accounts from my credit file, because they were past the statue of limitation. XXXX will not remove the accounts ; they do not even own the accounts, anymore, so they are being reported, twice, including with XXXX XXXX and should not have been reported, when acquired, due to the statue of limitation. Jefferson claims a payment was made, around the 8th year from the account being opened ; they can not provide proof of payment. I NEVER made a payment, so the delinquency date is incorrect. These accounts NEED to be removed from my credit reports. Most of them were opened in 2006, and a payment has never been made. They are private loans and are being treated as Federal, also.

Jefferson Capital Systems is reporting a debt on my credit file that needs to be removed. There are so many things in this account that are wrong and I'm sick on having it on my credit. I called years ago and they told me it was for internet or something out in XXXX. I have no idea where XXXX is, I have never lived there. This account is surely not mine and I told them that in our conversation but they insist in putting fraudulent accounts on peoples account. Not only that, this account would be past the statute which is irrelevant because it is not mine. This needs to be removed immediatley. Remove false debts on credit can be considered fraud under both federal and state laws and I will not hesitate to bring legal action against Jefferson Capital Systems.

I want this account removed immediately and validation of debt from XXXX ( Jefferson Capital Systems ). I have never signed a contract with this company or have any knowledge of this debt from them.

The absolute tragedy of XXXX XXXX and thinking that on my credit cars that reports to all the CRAs could actually close my account for Telling them that I had filed a report with the CPFB, Little they care of the discrepancy when I was told not to file for an authorized charges when thats exactly what happened. I submitted the report and they closed my account which no credit and reflects negatively on it. Jefferson Capital / XXXX has over 2300 complaints on the internet mostly for reinserting old debt as a form of extortion and despite the submission of the facts to you folks and the FTC these Companies seem to work together to make our lives difficult. As a single father was XXXX dollars to raise I cant seem to let this happen since it is not just.

Hello, I have a collection account from XXXX that was slated to drop off of my credit report soon, because we 're coming up on 7 years. About a year ago, my credit score dropped and XXXX, whose credit monitoring service I use, told me it was because of a new collection account. It is the same collection that was slated to drop off, but now it says that it was opened XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. XXXX XXXX was the original creditor. They charged me a ton of money in overdraft fees and I could n't afford to pay it. I have attached more info regarding this debt. I think it 's unfair that a collection account that is scheduled to drop off has been reactivated, with a corresponding hit to my credit score. It sounds unethical and possibly illegal. Thank you. -XXXX

I subsequently placed a fraud alert on my credit report and had several alerts from XXXX indicating they received an application for an account that could not be verified. Several months ago, I received a collection notice from XXXX regarding a fraudulent XXXX account. I contacted XXXX and was told no further action was required by me that the issue would be handled based on the information I provided. Today, I received a collection notice from XXXX, on behalf of Jefferson Capital Systems related to the same XXXX account. This is not my account, I am the victim of identity theft. I have provided documentation and a police report in addition to having this documented on my credit file.

I never received any documents other than an email demanding I pay them. They gave me a reference number in that email but there was nothing explaining why they think I owe them.. I responded back asking them to again provide proof or any information that they might have. They have no solid proof or real reason as to why I owe them. Jefferson Capital did not provide validation of debt they claim I owe. I asked for debt verification and they simply provided an amount owed and payment plans. NO form of verification. They are simply hurting my credit score and harassing me at this point.

I am filing a complaint about Jefferson Capital System They have not provided me with documentations show and proving they are in Fact the owner of a account they have listed on my credit report and with negative or derogatory status. Jefferson Capital System is illegally attempting to extort money from me by causing financial harm to my name and legal person. Extortion is a federal crime. Jefferson Capital Systems needs to provide the proper paperwork, not a copy of a old bill and statement. I need to see some type of contract agreement between their company and myself with legal and binding signature of contract to include XXXX XXXX. I am aware Jefferson Capital Systems is a Third Party collections firm. I do not wish to do business with them at all.

Jefferson capital garnished my wages and state income taxes, they received more than the garnishment was for, so the extra {$79.00} was applied to a zombie debt from 2013, now they are refusing to close the accounts I paid off via garnishment because they reopened that old account from 2013, this is wrong and it's past the statue of limitations on that debt. The garnishment was for the debt for {$470.00} and {$790.00}, those were paid, those are what I have disputed several times to have removed from my report, I have signed judgement paperwork stating I paid that in full, It wouldn't let me submit it with the dispute or I would have. Now Jefferson capital is sending me settlement letters for the 2013 debt since they reopened that account!! Ridiculous!

This debt was purchased by Jefferson Capital XX/XX/2014. I did not receive communication, though they insist they sent it. Calls to Jefferson Capital informed me to first call their account reps to get my information. Another call said the debt had been sold to a company called XXXX. A call to XXXX told me it had yet been sold to another company. I have n't received any kind of information from these companies with debt validation or giving me the right to dispute. The last company 's rep said she " was n't sure '' if they still had the original account information. I feel as if I 'm being run around in circles. As for my credit report, this account appears as it still belongs to Jefferson Capital.There are multiple inconsistencies across all reports.

In a good faith effort to resolve this matter amicably, I restate my demand for proof of the debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must terminate this collection action and correct any erroneous reports of this debt as mine. For the record, I state again that as I have no account with you, nor am I your customer, nor have I entered into a contract with you. I've called XXXX and your company to resolve this issue and I have proof from my current carrier as to when I started services and the previous phone number in question, which never left my XXXX until I changed my number in XXXX of 2021.

I have no knowledge of this debt. It reported on my credit without receiving a notice that this would report to my credit, along with other violations which includes a collection account with NO delinquency date connected to the original charge-off, I also reserve the right to seek damages against all parties, under all available State and Federal statutes and UCC 9 remedies .Under 15 U.S. Code 1692j - Furnishing certain deceptive forms I am not participating in the collection of this alleged debt. Cease and desist asap. CFPB : please look into this matter. If this matter is not resolved asap I have no other choice but to speak with counsel, will go through the process of medication, and I plan to seek {$1000.00} for damages and each violation.

I recently attempted to dispute a debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX, via XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and via letter ( us mail ). This request has been submitted multiple times and the first time I did so, they failed to respond to me within 30 days ( the dispute was open for over 90 days ). I requested the orginal debt date to be provided ( not the date that the debt was turned over to the collection agency ) and they have failed to give me this date. They recently just updated the debt with the date that they attained it and accuse me of still being indebted. ( Actually reported that I am now late ). I have no idea what my next step is. I don't even know what account this is orginally from. I requested that all this info be mailed to me so I could review it.

My credit report shows a collection account with a company that I have never done business with. A collections company has reported this debt which recently hit my credit report and has negatively affected my credit score. Apparently someone used my name and social security number to open a XXXX XXXX account with an address in a different state. The collections company only has my name and social security number but the incorrect address. I have never received any information from the collections company, only found out about the situation from monitoring my credit score and viewing my credit report where the collections information is available. I never opened a XXXX XXXX account nor lived in the state that was used fraudulently in this case.

I am actually complaining about two agencies that I have no knowledge about. JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS claims that I opened an account for {$460.00}. If I opened an account for that amount, then why was the card never used and no payments made. It wasn't until the pandemic hit is when I saw this mysteriously appear on my credit report, and I disputed it saying that I never knew about this account and I never received a bill. Next thing you know, they started sending bills to my residence until I began to send it back to the sender. That's not how that works. Thereafter, I started receiving harrasing phone calls daily non-stop. JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS should have a record of me spending. I oppose of this and continue to fight against a lie.

The original account was XXXX XXXX who wrote off this account years ago which reflected on my credit report. Jefferson Capital allegedly purchased this " account '' as a secondary collection and placed a Negative Mark and Collection on my Credit Report which I challenged. The issue is that Jefferson is falsely stating that the debt began on XX/XX/2020 on my Derogatory Remark when in fact the account was written off years ago by XXXX. The clock can not start anew and a recent date advanced which will result in a longer period of record on the credit report. Jefferson Capital needs to adjust the date to the actual write off date which is years ago. By their own written admission, the collection is too old for any collection attempts.

I spoke with a supervisor named XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX regarding a debt of {$600.00} which they purchased pennies on a dollar from XXXX. I wanted to talk settlement as I requested she submit in writing the amount of the debt along with an arrangement and to also clear my credit file of such debt. The arrangement paying {$500.00} inlieu of {$600.00} and for them to submit in writing the arrangement. She mentioned they would sue me if I did not pay. I was served with a notice XX/XX/XXXX of a civil suit filed against me which would include fees they accrued from filing. A simple request to someone that was negligent turns into a legal matter as I did not agree on payment or this debt without a written confirmation. Which I never received.

I asked agent XXXX about the 60 % settlement offer that XXXX sent me to settle the debt and was told that they arent offering that settlement percentage. The percentage they offered was 10 % off in 1 payment or 5 % off on 18 payments. The total in collections is {$1200.00}, of which I used {$740.00} in credit, {$150.00} interest and an added fee. They added a {$330.00} fee outside of interest added to credit card balance. The agent went on to tell me that they cant offer me anything better because they just brought the debit in XXXX. If they have the debt longer than I may be able to get a better settlement offer.

Not having ever conducted a transaction with XXXX that would result in a debt, I largely ignored these calls for about 6 months. Finally, being fed up with call-blocking not being effective, I contacted XXXX directly XXXX probably sometime in 2020, I'm not sure ) by phone to ask if I had ever had a debt with them. They confirmed I did not, and then I closed my account as a precaution. Now I'm receiving statements from a debt collection agency called XXXX. Looking them up online, they appear to be legitimate- but many things can appear to be. I'm becoming more concerned about how this may affect me and I want it stopped before it causes me any damage.

I am filing this report because I discovered that I've been an identity theft victim and informed all the required parties. I told the credit bureaus and informed the creditors I suspected they were fraudulently reporting on my credit report. After deliberation, the creditors were notified and are aware that the accounts they are currently reporting to the credit bureaus are fraudulent and do not belong to me. I contacted the collection companies and informed them that the version resulted from fraud and identity theft, and they needed to remove it from my credit report. They have ignored my request. At this stage, my credit is being harmed by these derogatory accounts and collections and must be removed from my credit report.

When I received a call about this bill in XX/XX/2020, I was told that the bill was {$2100.00} ( which was never the amount owed ). Well because I am trying to increase my credit score I planned to pay all past due bills. The company assigned to the collection was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. As I spoke with the rep, he explained to me that I could not negotiate a settlement or payment plan since they company is not licensed to collect in RI where I live. Please explain to me how this can not be disputed? I have disputed this numerous times but I am getting nowhere. The amount they are charging me is also wrong.

On XX/XX/2021 I received a text alert informing me of a collection account in the amount of {$380.00} that appeared on my credit report. Upon viewing my credit report, Jefferson Capital Systems reported a delinquent account for XXXX XXXX.

AAIn 2018 I contacted all of the major credit reporting agencies about a collection account that was added to my credit report that violates the FCRA. Jefferson Capitol Syst did not contact me regarding this collection account prior to submitting to the credit report agencies and that is a violation of my consumer rights. I submitted documentation to have this account verified and removed and it was removed from credit report in 2018. This same account has reappeared and again, this account was not verified and this collection agency did not contact me prior to submitting it to the collection agencies. Also, this collection agency is not licensed to collect in the state of Nevada according the Secretary of State for Nevada.

I have also had other problems in the mean time, including loosing my health insurance and paying off other debts. They did not want to stop any collection actions until I plan to make a payment plan with them. They wanted me to come up with {$100.00} within 7 days and for a month there after. They don't seem to care about my situation. I will also file a complaint with the FTC.

I check my report often to make sure my information is reporting accurately. A few years ago, I was a victim of identity theft and had several accounts removed because someone fraudulently used my personal information. I received a notification from my credit monitoring service that an account has been listed on my credit reports. It is reporting under the company XXXX as a collection for {$270.00}. I have never heard of this company and have no idea who they are. I was never sent any notice or dunning letters in the mail, therefore I have not had a chance to dispute this inaccurate information before being placed on my report. This a violation of my rights and I want this account removed from my credit reports immediately!

On or about XX/XX/19, Jefferson Capital Systems appeared on my credit report as a creditor trying to collect an alleged debt to {$20000.00} for the account number XXXX. I received no communication of this entity acquiring by transfer, assignment etc, the alleged amount in incorrect and I have a letter from XXXX showing a lesser amount owed. These are violations of the FDCPA and the FCRA, of which I have the private right to bring a suit against all parties. This has negatively affected my ability to obtain reasonable interest rates on future financial products. There is also identity theft due to the fact that my personal information, to include social security account, has been possibly breached without my authorization.

I contacted them yet again to let them know that this was a fraudulent account. They ( XXXX ) told me i would have to obtain a police report which I did. Detective XXXX XXXX from the XXXX TN Police Dept., sent XXXX the copy of the police report. Sometime after that the fraudulent account was handed over to a collection agency in my name and put on my credit report. I have been fighting this going on several years now with no resolution to this matter. 4 years later I am still actively trying to get this removed from my credit report.

I took out a loan during some financial difficulties back in 2016. At the time I didnt know about interest rates or the length of loan terms. I had been paying this loan for over four years and hadnt even scratched the interest. I know now that it was predatory the amount of interest I was paying on the loan. It got way too expensive so I stopped paying. Since then I received phone calls and voice mails about threatening to put it on my credit despite FCRA guidelines that protect military service members. They have since added it to my credit and it has drastically affected it. A third party is now trying to collect on it and continue to report it on my credit, which has vastly affected my credit in a negative way.

They also are very rude and aggressive with the office staff. I finally called them back and gave them my phone number, not my employers phone number, and they had no record of me in their system. I told them to stop calling my employer. They have never once tried to reach me personally or through mail.

I called the police to file a complaint and they couldn't help me either. In XXXX XXXX they put me in Derogatory Mark and the account in collection. And I called XXXX to notify it, and I made the dispute. But it couldn't be fixed.

Since XXXX, these items have been on my credit report and have robbed me of my financial freedom and have resulted in increased interest rates and expenses unfairly to me. For many years I have responded phone calls to provide proof of ownership, with no responses. Recently, from XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX I have written letters to these creditors and credit bureaus to remove the false information from my credit report. They have either not answered or have said that this was verified as accurate with out providing my signature, full account numbers or providing proof that these were my accounts. XXXX XXXX allege I owe {$2500.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX allege I owe {$5200.00} XXXX allege I owe {$9600.00}

Back in XX/XX/XXXX /XX/XX/XXXX i sent out a letter to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXequesting for Validation of this debt that is reporting on my credit report. The company XXXX XXXX XXXX, which i hold no contract/no hand signed contract with nor have received services from, reported a collection account against my social security number in the total amount of {$780.00} with XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit reporting Bureau. I have requested verification of the debt and account, however the business failed to provide adequate proof. Considering that XXXX XXXX XXXX does not have a contract with me for goods or services they have provided nor have they provided adequate proof, I am not obligated to pay for the alleged debt.

I was taken to court by the Jefferson Capital System, LLC. The judge ruled in favor of the plaintiff for me to make arrangements to pay off debt. I called on yesterday and spoke with a lady who did not identify herself. I told her the nature of the call and she became rude by calling me a liar when I explained my income of SSI. She continued to ask why I did not pay the bill in 2017 and I explained that my income varies from month to month. I became upset and got a little loud on the phone and the representative from Jefferson Capital System told me that I was not going to get loud in her ear because she had to work until XXXX and she was not going to have a headache and then she hung the phone up on me.

Previously contacted company and the credit bureaus to remove negative information. Jefferson Capital ( debt buyer/third party collection agency ) was unable to validate this debt for {$950.00} to the credit bureaus or to me personally because it does not belong to me. They continuously harass me, reporting this negative information, and deliberately destroying my credit information. XXXX previously filed an investigation and due to no proof ; they deleted it from my credit file. However. I just found out today ( XXXX XXXX,2017 ) that this debt buyer ( original creditor -XXXX XXXX ) once again reported this alleged debt with XXXX and is being reported again. This is a direct violation of FCRA and FDCPA.

When I submitted payment over the phone after settling on an amount ( half of the fee ) they ran my card, however no money came out. I have tried multiple times to receive information on the debt via MAIL and they have not sent anything ( however they claim they have ). When I contact them, some representatives refuse to speak to me without giving them my social, while others know my information before I even have a chance to talk ( via phone number. ) I am very upset and am trying to settle my debt, however I am unsuccessful at doing so. I am even having trouble with the supposed company who controls the debt. The number listed on the website says they do n't actually have the debt, leaving me confused.

I received multiple calls from Jefferson Capital to attempt an alleged debt. I never received any written information about disputing an alleged debt after initial communication via phone. I then took action to dispute the third party debt collection agency. I requested that Jefferson Capital to stop communication via phone by sending a Cease and Desist letter via certified mail. I also requested that the third party collection agency send me any information pertaining to the alleged debt. They received the certified mail on XX/XX/2021. I have yet to receive any documentation for the account. I received four additional phone calls after they received the Cease and Desist letter from Jefferson capital.

I wasn't served any paperwork in regard to this hearing so I could go and defend myself in front of a judge.

Jefferson Capital, a collection company for XXXX put a mark on my credit for an account I never opened. It was opened by a lady named XXXX XXXX in my name. They threatened to have me sued if I did not settle what I owed. So I accepted a letter settlement pay off of {$150.00} dollars and paid online. The company did not remove the collection after telling me they would. They were informed this account was fraudulent and said it would be closed. I do have proof that I paid the {$150.00} dollar settlement to them. I dispute it on my credit report with no luck. I am locked out of my online account and they will not contact me to settle this. I feel intimidated and scammed out of my money. This is wrong.

A short time later, XXXX placed a collection on my credit report and notified me that I still owed for the phone that was not returned. I contacted XXXX and provided photographic proof that the phone was returned. XXXX then agreed to remove the collection from my credit report. Now, some ( 3 ) years later, XXXX has sold the same debt to another collection agency who has now filed a collection on my credit report for the same phone that was already settled.

The settlement was for {$2800.00} and broken down into XXXX XXXX monthly payments. The first {$150.00} payment was made on XX/XX/22. The second {$150.00} payment was made on XX/XX/22.

Instead of updating the account to show that it was settled on my credit report, Jefferson Capital just reduced the original balance and still shows a past-due balance.

I have uploaded all of the following documentation to show record of the original debt collector XXXX on behalf of Jefferson Capital Systems LLC offered as shown in the documentation a settlement in the amount of {$600.00}. I scheduled auto draft payments and held my promise to pay off {$75.00} a month. At this time the settlement has been paid in full. Ive recently received another letter for collection on the same debt for the remaining deficiency balance of {$400.00} from the original debt collector Jefferson Capital Systems LLC which looks as if the remaining balance was resold back to the original collector which doesnt make any sense why would you sell the debt and then buy it back?

I have reported this debt on my credit report to each credit bureau and also the company that placed it because it is a result of identity theft. I have lived in XXXX, XXXX since XX/XX/XXXX and once I moved out of my fathers home in XX/XX/XXXX I put my electricity bill in my name and have so even now. There is no reason I would have needed a electricity bill in XXXX XXXX when I do not live there. This is a case of identity theft. I have never received any bills, notifications, or any other notice of this account until it was placed on my credit report and I have been dealing with trying to have it removed and a fraud alert placed on my account since then. The amount is {$2400.00} dollars.

Jefferson Capital Systems listed an old ( un-owed and unsubstantiated ) debt in my report without any notice. The original claim was from 2008, and the orginal collector could never furnish any data to prove this. Jefferson Capital bought this debt and is listing in my credit report as new, has never contacted me, or provided evidence of what makes up this amount. This item should be removed from my credit report and this company should be fined. It now appears XXXX times on my credit report, even though it ( 1 ) should not be there in the first place, ( 2 ) the debtor sold it to a third party, and the third party is trying to claim this is new without contacting me or providing evidence.

I received in the mail a bill from Jefferson Capitol saying I owe on a cell phone bill to my current cell phone company. I do not have any delinquent debt with them. I called and they told me they would issue a dispute. Now I get another letter stating they want my ss # account # description of error and explanation of why I believe there is an error, dollar amount in question, date of suspected error, cope of the credit report with their trade line. I again called them and they told me, ok, we will stop collections, and will not report on my credit reports.

On XX/XX/2020 I checked my XXXX credit report and noticed a collection from Jefferson Capitol Systems was placed on my credit profile for a XXXX debt of {$400.00}. I proceeded to call the company but no answer due to the weekend. I did use the automated system that then told me the alleged debt was transferred to another company XXXX XXXX XXXX. If the supposed debt was with XXXX XXXX, then why does their automated system tell me it was transferred. How can XXXX XXXX report on my credit profile something they dont own? I also did not receive any notification of the alleged debt from either company giving me 30 days to dispute the information and request verification of alleged debt owed.

XXXX XXXX XXXX added a negative account to my credit report. The date they state this account was opened with them was XX/XX/XXXX. I believe this to be for a XXXX debt that was already once removed from my credit report. Loan Type Debt Buyer Account. I am in the process of rebuilding my credit, this has negatively impacted my score which was on a slow climb towards mortgage ready. The date of first Delinquency is listed as XX/XX/XXXX before my account was open with them. The information they have posted on my credit report is inconsistent. They have made no attempt to contact me by mail. They are a predatory collector dredging up things past removed to add them to a credit report again.

Hello, i have been trying to communicate with these 2 collection companies for over a year now. They refuse to send me any paperwork from the origional creditors and keep changing the items from the pictures below. I've spent some time reading your regulations and they are breaking them all. The accounts are 6 years old, so over the state statute of limitations and they are not listed correctly with so many of these lines listed on my report.. These accounts must be deleted per your rules and regulations. They call and threaten me all the time, i tell them to stop calling and they call from other numbers. Can you please force them to remove these from my report for breaking your rules?

The original debt to XXXX XXXX ( the creditor ) was charged off many years ago and has long since exceeded the statute of limitations established in the state of Florida where I resided when the delinquency was incurred. Jefferson Capital Systems, XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX. XXXX, MN XXXX, illegally re-aged the debt in XX/XX/XXXX, effectively restarting the clock, claiming that it now expires on XX/XX/XXXX.

Jefferson capital system re aged a collection account they purchased from XXXX XXXX. The original debt was from XX/XX/2012 and they have reported to all three credit bureaus the account is 3 mo the old which makes it illegal to re age a account per FCRA. I filed a dispute and contacted the collection agency which the supervisor I spoke to informed me they have a payment processing company collecting the debt. Not only that but I am not legally responsible for this account. My debt was with XXXX not any other collection company so that in itself is not allowed. All three credit monitoring agencies have the delinquent date for 3 months from this date when it originally was XX/XX/2012.

XXXX originally sent it to one debt collector and it was sold to another debt collector about a year later to Jefferson Capital System. Jefferson Capital keeps updating it so it stays on my credit report. This debt is way about 10 years old. I have disputed this multiple times, yet it won't come off my credit. According to the FCRA " Consumer reporting agencies may not report outdated negative information. In most cases, a consumer reporting agency may not report negative information that is more than seven years old '' My credit report says that it was only opened 2 years ago, but it was about 10 years ago.

This is a shame to military members who become XXXX serving their country and debt buyers as such are the bottom of the barrel.

Not once has Jefferson Capital sent me any kind of documentation nor has the credit bureaus. This negative debt is affecting my credit in more ways than one and all I ask the credit bureaus and collection agencies to do is their job. I am not responsible for this debt whatsoever as this debt belongs to my ex-husband and not me. Please do your job and remove this account for my credit report asap.

I never opened this account. I don't know what it is. It appears to be a charge card. If it is it was opened fraudulently in my name. If they have my social security number I do not know how they got it. They are listed on my credit report in two different accounts with the same balance. It seems very odd. It says it is an online marketing company and that I owe {$710.00}. It says it was opened in XX/XX/2015. I've never purchased or received merchandise from this company. This must be a fraudulent account. I would like the company to either prove it was me that opened this charge account or please have it removed from my credit report. As it is negatively affecting my credit.

I have Two collection accounts listed on my credit report for the same amount. I don't feel it is fair to be able to list it twice or the reason it is being charged to me. That is why I am reaching out for help. It initiated with XXXX XXXX when I discontinued my service with them. It wasn't for a bill or phones that I owed, but because I discontinued 2 lines of service with them. They charged me {$840.00} for dicontinued service of 2 lines. Which is {$420.00} per line of service. This is outrageous and should not be allowed to be done to anyone. Please help. If I can provide any other information, please let me know. Thank you for your time and assistance. Sincerely,

On XX/XX/2021 I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX attempting to collect a debt for a XXXX account. I have not held or owned a XXXX account. I have attempted to contact Jefferson Capital regarding this mailing however they are requesting my social security number which I will not provide as I have been a victim of fraud and know that this is the tactics of collection agencies to try and assign debt when you give them your social. I have previously disputed this account with XXXX along with other agencies by submitting a copy of the police report filed due to fraudulent activity against my social. This debt is not valid and they have failed to provide proof as requested.

Hello I am a victim of identity theft. I recently learned that my personal information was used to open an account with XXXX and has since reported as a collection account on my credit report. I did not open or authorize this account, and I therefore request that it be closed immediately.

I have been trying to get this removed for over a year and it is not being resolved. I presently live at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Ga. The reporting agency is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ACCT # XXXX XXXX is XXXX

The phone service with XXXX was terminated by me several ( more than four ) years ago. I decided to go with another carrier. I left XXXX on good terms. A few years later I was contacted by a debt collector asking for payment. As we discussed the matter further, it was clear to me that the debt in question was not mine. As the representative shared the address connected to the debt in question, I came to realize the address was not mine ( and never had been mine ). I explained to the debt collector, that they obviously had the wrong person. I thought the matter was over. It was not until I saw my XXXX XXXX account that I noticed that this issue was back. Very frustrating!

Per conversation with XXXX they said that the last payment that was received was in XXXX which was a red flag to me and didn't sound correct. I immediately asked for a debt validation letter regarding this matter and today XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX XXXX stating that they are unable to resolve the request because they need additional information ie. ssn, acct number, copy of credit report.

I believe I am a victim of identity theft. Due to the Pandemic, we have been facing a lot of problems in terms of financial, emotional, and physical aspects. Also, I have been hearing a lot of recent news that the Bureaus are having data and system issues. I disputed the fraudulent information from my credit report. I have no idea how the theft took place. I also have no knowledge of any suspects. I did not receive any money, goods, or services as a result of identity theft. I have done many attempts to reach out to the Bureaus but they failed to give me any results or feedback about this concern. Please investigate and remove it from my personal credit file. Thank you.

Jefferson Capital is reporting an account on my credit report that I have not received any communication from them about. The account is reporting with a company called XXXX XXXX. I have not received any documents or letters from Jefferson Capital about this account. The account just showed up on my credit report in XX/XX/2021. Now the company is calling me repeatedly. As far as I know Jefferson Capital was required to send a letter to me before reporting this account on my credit report so that I could have a chance to request validation. The company did not send me this letter. They have not sent me any letters. Nothing. This account should not be on my credit report.

This is causing me a great deal of stress when i know, they ca n't do this. Its being reported back on my credit file but under a collection agency not XXXX. XXXX deleted their account and jefferson put it back on when it was suppose to fall off this year. Not it restarts the 7 year thing all over again.

In XX/XX/2020 Jefferson Capital Systems added a derogatory mark on my credit report. Thi account was originally a medical bill which was paid by my insurance prior to the creditor selling it to a collection account. I am no longer responsible for the account. I have had many unsuccessful disputes with the credit bureaus in reference to this fraudulent account. Also, there was NO written form of communication, contract or signature for this accused debt at all. A bill without a signature does not validate the debt. According to the FCRA, Jefferson Capital Systems has violated my rights as a consumer And Im requesting legal action to remove this account immediately.

I had a phone call with Jefferson capital over this debt. They said that they would except a payment of XXXX and that they would then close the account and mark it as closed. They also said that they would remove it from my credit report. None of which has happened. They still continue to call and harass me. Send letters in the mail and argue with me about what has happened. This continues to hurt me in more than ways. It not only hurts my credit score which hurts me while trying to get a house and other loans but also they want more money than we had discussed. They have already gone back on their word and I do not trust them to keep it this time around either.

Jeffersons Capital is reporting inaccurate information. This information is based off previous information that they have reported. I am requesting that they delete and remove said record due to inaccurate reporting. Per credit guidelines a debt collector must report accurate information. Jefferson capital has violated that order. On XX/XX/XXXX the collection dropped off. However, as my records indicate Jefferson Capital went back and added debt onto my account as of XX/XX/XXXX. That is in accurate as there previous records has never indicated an account as of XX/XX/XXXX and the account had dropped off. I am requesting this account be deleted & removed.

When i contacted Jefferson Capital demanding they provide me with documentation validating this debt pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act, they refused to comply within 45 days. Lastly Jefferson Capital has not validated any contract that i consented or agreed to with their company. Jefferson Capital has violated my credit and reputation, i am demanding collections be investigated, removed and communication be ceased from all credit bureaus.

Jefferson Capital Systems furnished an alleged debt on my Credit File. I requested debt validation along with my request for information outlining their right to collect a debt from me. Jefferson Capital Systems responded by providing information outlining a debt owed to an entire different entity along with a created document from themselves that ( says ) that they purchased a debt and I am liable. Jefferson Capital Systems failure to produce the purchase agreement and or quit claim, in which I specifically requested leads me to believe they are attempting to collect a debt under false pretense which is a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practing Act.

I do not have knowledge of this debt. I have disputed the debt with the 3 credit bureaus at least 3 times, requesting proof that the debt is mine and or removal from my credit report. The collection agency is claiming a debt with XXXX XXXX, saying the account is recent, however ; I have been with XXXX XXXX and/or XXXX for >15 years. I called and requested proof of a contract or something I signed or agreed to. The collection agency sent me a document to report " identity theft '', and to provide a police report which is no applicable, as I did not have a XXXX account in my name, was not aware of the account, so no police report would be available.

The company is required by law to send a validation letter first, before attempting to collect. This was absolutely not done. The company can not collect this debt, can not report this account to any credit reporting agencies and must cease all collection attempts.

This particular account situation that is lately filing on my own credit document has a seriously unfavorable relation to my personal ability to obtain a present loan application. I highly recommend you generate verification that XXXX XXXX has been reported completely in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act regulations, it's really a serious problem to misreport. More confirmation of the aforesaid item too. My proper request must over, I was never 30 days/60 days/120 days late in any of my payments and I'm not greatly tuned in to the date opened so I prefer to ask you be investigated as soon as possible and confirmed to be correct. Thanks!

This debt keeps being reported even though I did not open this account in XXXX as it says in the credit report. I closed my account with XXXX in XXXX and paid the bill off in full with a check from XXXX XXXX XXXX. First off, this debt should be removed immediately because it is not my debt as I did not open this account. Second, it should be closed because even though I have known this is not my account I was so scared of getting bad credit that I actually paid the balance in full to XXXX XXXX before XXXX because I was getting harrassed by them. There is no way this should be on my account still and there is either fraud or innaccuracy here.

I have disputed this account at the credit bureaus several times over the last 6 months for them to verify this account and show me proof of my signature and that this is a valid account. I do not even know what this account is. I have also sent out 2 certified letters directly to Jefferson capital over that last 6 months to verify my responsibility and send proof this is my account and that they have the right to collect on it, They have not responded to any of my request and are in violation of the FCRA as well the FDCPA. This has caused me issues obtaining credit and is incorrectly affecting my credit and my ability to obtain a job.

On XX/XX/2019 Jefferson Capital Systems levied my bank account for {$6000.00}. There was no payment arrangement accepted. I offered to pay on a debt that was very old and beyond the statute of limitations in my state of Ohio. The debt was clearly time barred and yet the company was rude over the phone, mean when I asked questions about the debt and unwilling to work with me on payment arrangements. The company now is not picking up the phone when I call and the attorney XXXX XXXX is not returning my calls to discuss the matter. This company is not abiding by the law and needs to be stopped much like XXXX XXXX had to be years ago.

I disputed an account with XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/. I asked for debt validation and verification. The company responded by saying this debt was sold to Jefferson capital system who never responded to me. I asked for debt validation and verification and they did not respond. It has surpassed their 30 days in dispute. I do not owe this debt it does not belong to me. Looking at the 3b credit report you will notice several inaccuracies with this reporting. This information is inaccurate, untrue, not complete, no whole. The information is inconsistent and does not belong to me. Please stop selling this debt and delete from my report thank you

Jefferson Capital systems bought a debt from a company that tried to place something on my credit report after being unsuccessful they sold the debt to Jefferson Capital systems. The original debt came from a company by the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX once XXXX XXXX XXXX was removed from my credit report XXXX XXXX sold the debt. I owe no money to XXXX XXXX, Jefferson Capital systems or XXXX XXXX XXXX. I've reached out to the country several times for them to show me all documents pertaining to this debt.

Jefferson capital LLC changed the open date on this account. I canceled XXXX XX/XX/XXXX that was my last payment ever made. The clock for the 7 year rule should have started counting then. The Jefferson captial changed the date to XX/XX/XXXX on my credit report. They have failed to work with me to change the date. I agreed to pay the {$220.00} if they take it off my credit report cause it has been over 7 years. This debt will be on my credit report for over 12 years I feel that is not fair at all. Is it illegal for a collection to change an open date on an account from XX/XX/XXXX which the last payment was made? Thanks for your help.

Collection was incorrectly sent to Jefferson Capital Systems from XXXX after XXXX had agreed to nullify my contract after I moved to a location where XXXX did not provide service. Jefferson Capital aggressively and repeatedly contacted me asking me to pay this debt when I explained to them that it was not valid ( according to XXXX 's own contract ). The last time I spoke with Jefferson Capital, I offered a resolution which they refused. Now they are reporting this account to the credit agencies and using it as leverage against me. I am very disturbed by their lack of reason in this matter and now it is unjustly affecting me.

I actually have multiple issues with a debt buyer who has bought 3 very old accounts of mine, the agency has left messages threatening to turn information over to the police, and to meet me on the courthouse steps.

I have contacted all three agencies to dispute the dates and all three have informed me that XXXX XXXX XXXX is showing it as new debt and delinquency. XXXX XXXX refuses to correct it and says they are allowed to do this to force me to pay.

The debt is ruining my credit and the company is not doing anything to remove it. This cant be legal ... can it?

Even though there was inconvenience on there end tried to charge me a {$300.00} cancellation fee. I am all around flabbergasted and would like to have this resolved and remove from credit because it's hindering my progress.

XXXX has tried to collect this debt for over 2 years. I have disputed it each and every time. XXXX was unable to provide the necessary documentation to validate this debt. As a result they did not respond my original request for debt validation and I received an apology and a letter ( via cfpb ) stating that they did in not validate the request. That they would stop pursuing this. This is just more harassments from XXXX and Jefferson Capital in regards to this matter. I plan on also filing a complaint with the FCC. Attached you will find my original CFPB complaint with an apology from XXXX debt collection department.

XXXX sold a debt for {$270.00} to a collection agency, XXXX. I was able to prove to XXXX that the debt was not mine, XXXX agreed in writing that the debt was not mine and that they would cease all debt collection actions against me. I shared this info with the collection agency XXXX. XXXX did not respond to me ( I sent certified letters ) - but instead sold this debt to another collection agency, Jefferson Capital - which has forced me to start the process all over again. I'm concerned that even once I prove this debt is not mine, the current debt collection will just sell the debt and force me to repeat the process.

Jefferson Capital called my work place and discussed my personal matter to an employee there. The person on the phone from Jefferson Capital told the employee that its a personal matter of Debt owed and that I must get on the phone. The person on the other line was threatening and extremely aggressive with my co-worker. I was out to lunch and my co-worker was just trying to take a message. This company would n't give them a call back number or anyone to reach them, they said that they would call back. Jefferson Capital seems like they are part of a scam that bullies people into paying them for debt they do n't have.

I previously asked them to send me a debt validation letter in the mail and they sent me a bill. They can not provide me with my whole Social Security number, and they have the original address on the original account incorrect. Wrong apartment number.

I received a notice from Jefferson Capital for collection. I requested a verification letter and they provided a statement from XXXX with my name XXXX XXXX. I have never had XXXX services and received proof that there is only one account open in my name from back in XXXX via XXXX fraud investigation team. I have lived in XXXX since leaving for XXXX in XXXX. I called XXXX Fraud and they told me I need to file a police report before they can investigate any further that someone stole my identity to open an account in my name. I will continue to work with XXXX so they remove the account from collection.

Called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and they told me theyre not reporting it that they filed to remove while experian is showing they reported it as a charge off, they began laughing because I asked for it to be mailed that we agreed on pay to remove and they said ok. XXXX will not allow me to re dispute.

I originally had a loan with XXXX XXXX that was ultimately sold to Jefferson Capitol. As the account neared 7 years maturation and about to be eligible to drop off my credit report, Jefferson Capitol re-aged my account and put it on my credit report as being delinquent as of 2017 starting the clock over as to when it would mature and come off my credit report. I emailed and called Jefferson Capitol and only got unfulfilling answers and no response to my emails. The account was previously removed and Jefferson Capitol readded it without proper notification and reached the account which violates the law.

It is my Social Security number! But, someone elses name and birthdate and address which is a PO Box in Arizona. I reside in Montana. The amount of the balance that is showing up on my credit is {$6300.00}. XXXX. My Social Security number was used without my knowledge. The debt owed is definitely not mine.

There has now been a collection from XXXX of these companies ( jeffersons capital ) in the amount of {$8500.00} and this is incorrect. I have tried to dispute this but jeffersons keep assigning the account to an attorney. I can no longer verify this debt due to XXXX being out of business.

After being denied credit, i pulled my credit report. As i reviewed it i noticed several bogus accounts listed. As such i disputed with the three bureaus. The collector verified the debt. I was never sent any notifucation letters or right to dispute communications from them. I therefore sent a dispute letter i. Accordance with my rights under the FDCPA which was ignored. Its been over 60 days and i have had no response. This is not my debt, the have willfully ignored and violated the FDCPA and laws. This continued to hurt my credit and inflict damages to me fininacially as well as my reputation.

Between my attorney and myself, we have attempted to contact XXXX XXXX on 6 occasions since I received the letter from my bank. The payment of {$990.00} and the garnishment of {$1600.00} has left me with only {$42.00} in my bank account.

XXXX has violated my Federally protected rights under the FCRA. I contacted XXXX today letting them know the account Jefferson Capital should have been removed after speaking with a supervisor he said the request was sent in XX/XX/XXXX according to Jefferson Capital but XXXX said they submitted paperwork saying it mine which is inaccurate. XXXX credit reporting has been very inaccurate as well as my score, my points dropped XXXX points after having a collection removed.. My consumer report needs to be evaluated as my score is definitely inaccurate. Failure to comply will result in a lawsuit.

I called the company and they are telling me they sent it when they have not. I requested a email and one was not sent. The When I was requesting the debt over the phone the woman kept trying to convince me to pay before getting that letter and almost refusing to provide it.

Several years ago I got a notice from XXXX that I owed them {$260.00}. There was no specifics attached to bill, such as date of charge or what was purchased. This was odd because I had never had a XXXX account. I did report this by phone to XXXX but I never got an acknowlegment. But bills stopped. Recently got notice from Jefferson Capital that debt had been sold to them and now they are trying to collect. They sent me a form to fill out but I am reluctant to give them my social security number. I have no other issues with identity theft at this time. I want their harassing letters to stop.

I keep getting these notifications from a junk debt buyer named Jefferson Capitol systems trying to collect on debt that I have no idea of and is probably past the statute of limitations, They do not provide the necessary backup and probably buy tons of this debt for pennies on the dollar. Why are they allowed to stay in business. Fraudulent. Please have them stop contacting me and if I see anything on my credit report from them I will take the necessary legal action. They know that if you contact them it starts the clock running on debt that could not be collected on in the past.

I'm pretty sure the tactics [ JEFFERSON CAPITAL XXXX ] has used is in clear violation of CFPBs Debt Collection Rule under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) which became effective on XX/XX/2021.

I had a phone debt in XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX. XXXX called and told me that I had a debt in my name and that I needed to pay it off in a month. The balance was satisfied on XX/XX/XXXX. I called XXXX and they said they have forwarded the debt to Jefferson Capital Systems and now there is a duplicate collection placed on the credit report on XX/XX/XXXX - a year after the fact which is double dinging me and causing the FICO score to be hindered. I have spoke to Jefferson and they provided the same account information as XXXX and XXXX. This is not a valid collection for Jefferson.

I tried using Jefferson Capitals online service but when I put in my information online it states they can not find my information.

JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM continuously places a fraudulent debt on my credit report when they company was notified of this being fraudulent. I have filed a ftc and police report 3 to 5 years ago, and this did not slow them down. It's almost like this debt company is ran in automation without any human dignity or interaction.

They kept on insisting that I should pay them and also tried to drop down the amount but again I'm not going to pay what I don't owe. They can't give me documentation and also when I dispute it nothing happens. I don't think it's fair that I have to be going through this until the year 2023. Can you please help me with this.

I'm getting a collections notice from Jefferson Capital Systems trying to collect an old phone bill of {$150.00} from XXXX. I had cancelled before the invoice date started for the next month. I paid the previous month and called as soon as I paid the pervious month to cancel my service indefinitely. So way before the invoice starting date. I spoke to a woman on the phone who said she would take me off no problem and there would be no fees. now suddenly, I was attempting to buy a car and 3 years later my credit score drops 100 points for something I don't even owe.

When I was younger a man approached me and forced me to cash checks for him. It was XXXX separate checks at XXXX separate XXXX XXXX XXXX locations. I told the bank what happened and whoever I spoke to told me that the fact that I was physically forced to cash the checks did not matter. I found that hard to believe and decided that I would not pay it because it in fact was a result of the actions previously mentioned. I also tried to file a police report of the incident at the time but because I had no information as to who the man was, the police could do nothing.

M soon to be ex-wife left me a couple of months ago. Just recently I started getting debt collection notices in the mail. She had apparently been taking credit cards and loans in my name for the last couple of years. She fraudulently has me in debt for over {$30000.00}. I have had to freeze my credit and dispute the items showing up on my credit report. I tried filing an identity theft report with the local police department, but since we are still legally married they wouldn't let me fill out a report. The local prosecuting attorney 's office did the same thing.

XXXX XXXX XXXX Original creditor : XXXX XXXX Account : XXXX, Balance : {$560.00} Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Status : Collection account. {$560.00} past due as of XX/XX/XXXX. This account was closed by creditor almost 10 years ago. Jefferson Capital Syst only tells me that debt is valid. They never provided and do no provide the original contract. They keep reporting it as a new collection account and I feel this is a fraudulent practice. They refuse to validate the debt, they refuse to remove it from my credit report and this is affecting my families livelihood.

On XX/XX/2021 JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM added a derogatory on my credit report per XXXX XXXX. Upon further research this account was transferred/sold and I'm no longer responsible for this account. Debtor 's collectors did not verify this collection. Also there was NO written communication, contract or signature for this account at all. A bill without a signature does not validate a debt and anybody can send a bill and say its mine. According to the FCRA, JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM has violated my rights and I'm requesting legal action to remove account immediately.

I was informed that because I was late paying of the last payment by 30 days, they can keep it as a delinquency for 7 years. This was supposed to come off my credit report upon completion of payments regardless if it was 30 days later than when scheduled, they were paid off in full.

They no longer call, however, I still keep getting letters from them. This is a scam, and they need to be stopped.

XX/XX/2022. I received an unsolicited fake debt collection notice via bulk consumer mailer from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC. The notice was sent to my home address for " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' to pay an alleged debt of {$2400.00} purchased from XXXX XXXX Bank Checking ( XXXX Reference # XXXX ). I have no affiliation with XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, Jefferson Capital, nor do I owe any outstanding debts.

I checked XXXX as well as XXXX to see if this balance exists and it doesn't under my name. Towards the bottom of the letter it states " this is communication from a debt collector and is an attempt to collect debt '' and right above that it states that by renewing this debt they still start a lawsuit against me which means this is a debt that was reported off and they are attempting to reage this debt, or this debt was never under my name.

Jefferson Capital Systems had for some reason put a collection mark on my credit account for XXXX XXXX which I paid through a debt relief company called XXXX. For some reason Jefferson Capital bought it even though I settled and paid for it! I tried calling for them to take it off but person was being rude over the phone. I tried stating that it was paid and he just kept saying that it was not his problem and wanted proof. How is it my fault if they bought the debt off a company that did not tell them it was paid. Now they wont take it off my report.

I never received any notification from XXXX XXXX XXXX about this debt. This debt keeps getting sold from one collection agency to another. I have disputed this debt with the three bureaus and had it removed for failure to validate because there is no contract for this debt. However, each time they sell it to another collection agency it is yet again reported to the bureaus. If there was no validation of this debt with the previous collection agency, there still isnt any with the current and it needs to be removed from all three bureaus immediately.

Since XX/XX/2022, Jefferson Capital has repeatedly used deceptive, false and misleading practices. They first tried to collect a debt in California even though they were not licensed in the state to properly conduct business. They also threatened to sue me, told me to seek a lawyer and told me the account is being sent to a lawyer but then stated maybe not which they can not make that assumption which would be considered a threat not an action. This company is using shady and harassing business practices and should be fined.

I have noticed the presence of a collection entry from your agency, which has caught my attention as I was not previously informed about this collection. Additionally, I have serious doubts about the accuracy of the debt being claimed. Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I have the right to request validation of the debt. Therefore, I kindly ask that you provide me with the necessary validation and take the necessary steps to resolve this matter.

I reached out to the debt collection agency and they agreed to a pay-to-delete solution. There were two accounts that were supposed to be deleted from my credit report but are still being reported on my report. After 30 days I reached out to the original creditor and provided them with proof of payments and they said they would update the information but never did. I've contacted both parties on multiple occasions and all they have done is put the responsibility to remove and stop reporting these items on each other.

I was on a company phone plan which used XXXX and upon changing jobs needed to get onto my own phone plan. I had intended to just keep using XXXX, ultimately they could not get my phone to work and switched providers, but eventually I started to receive a bill just for getting of my company plan. They were never able to provide any such agreement or reason that would require this exorbitant {$350.00} cost and said the issue could not be resolved and was sent to debt collectors who have been harassing me since.

JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEMS has reported a collection account to XXXX without my expressed written consent pursuant to 15 USC 1692c ( b ). This is fraud. It is also a direct violation of 15 USC 1692e - False or Misleading Representations under 15 USC 1692e ( 8 ) because credit information that is known to be false is being communicated to consumer reporting agencies. This company violates 15 USC 1692g - Validation of Debts, as well for the reason that I was never never sent a written notice to dispute the debt.

I was reviewing my credit report & noticed a collection account by the name of Jefferson Capital Systems. I dont recall seeing a written contract between myself & Jefferson Capital systems. It is my understanding that if they can not provide proof of this being my debt that it must be removed. According to the FDCPA, they must provide adequate proof showing that this debt is in fact mines, if theres no proof then this must be removed from my credit profile. Computer printouts of billing statements arent proof

They keep selling the debt to new collection agencies, then it shows a new open date, and it never goes away. This " supposed '' debt is well over 10 years ago ... Not only that, but I do n't even owe the money! I asked XXXX XXXX to close my account back then, and they told me on the phone it was taken care of, but then they never closed it. I am never going to pay money I do n't owe. I just want to know how to get rid of this thing on my credit. I 've been punished long enough for something I did n't owe.

Disputed online about the validity of the collection account. Stated verified online. Now the dates changed and they won't let me dispute online. When I contacted XXXX by phone today XXXX/XXXX/23, the cs rep said the collection company only has to say that the account is valid. Not that there is any documentation of proof. Thus being extremely lax on the FCRA. They put the burden on the consumer. They said to take it up with creditor for proof. Debt collector in this case is Jefferson Capital.

On my credit report Jefferson Capital Systems inaccurately reported the date my debt was opened as XX/XX/XXXX, when they confirmed over the phone that it was XX/XX/XXXX. They refuse to correct it because they have to list the date they acquired my debt. Thats not at all what date opened means when looking at a credit report. Date opened means the date the account was opened not the date some company acquired my debt. Every other debt company works the same way but Jefferson Capital Systems.

A collection agency ( Jefferson Capital ) says I owe money from an account I never had. They say I had a card from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I live in Virginia and have never been to Delaware. I checked online and this " bank '' was shut down by the Feds for fraud and money laundering. Apparently, they stole my info and opened a line of credit in my name.

I have never been a XXXX XXXX customer as I have had XXXX and prior to that was XXXX. I have contacted the collection agency to validate the debt on multiple attempts with no validation to date. After speaking with somebody, they stated it would be removed from my credit report. It is still showing after multiple months.

I have numerously disputed this XXXX account. It was originally purchased by another collection agency and I wrote that agency telling them to provide me with a signed contract that I purchased this acct and because they were not able to validate or verify this acct it was ultimately removed and deleted from my acct. Now I see that another agency has taken over this debt and are reporting to the bureaus. I Ask again please provide a signed contract with my name or remove from my credit.

Jefferson Capital Systems is reporting a debt on my credit file that I do not owe. I recently took a look at my credit file and noticed this. I was very surprised. They are collecting for XXXX XXXX. I had XXXX at one point but I was unhappy with their service and returned everything and discontinued services with them. I was not told I had a remaining balance, I was never called by them because I did not owe them anything. I have no idea where this came from and it needs to be removed.

This debt collector engaged in abusive, non-verified, deceptive and unfair practices of the FDCPA which it prohibits. They furnished this account that we did not agree upon, nor did I sign any agreement. A legal contract signed is by two parties, and I did not participate in any of this. More so they didn't follow the proper 5 step validation procedure which makes this unfair practice. According to the FDCPA, I'm entitled to {$1000.00} per violation and they have clearly violated.

Hello I received a debt collection letter from Jefferson Capital on XX/XX/21 stating I owe {$630.00} for a XXXX XXXX bill. I stated to the representative that I have not had XXXX as my provider. She stated that they have this on record as a debt and they are reporting it on my credit report. I asked her to provide me proof of the debt and advised her to remove it from my credit report. She wasnt willing to provide me proof of the debt belonging to me and demanded payment.

Jefferson Capital System has illegally reported this unverifiable debt to the credit bureaus without properly validating the debt. I have requested a letter of validation and they have failed to send. They have also submitted to the bureaus an address I have never resided. Furthermore, I am not liable for this debt and I do not have a contract with this company and did not agree to do business with them, so please remove this erroneous information from my credit profile.

I have asked the company to delete this debt from my credit report. This debt is not mine. I have asked them to verify this account under the FCRA Laws. I never did any business with this company. They cant provide signature, original contract, or anything, which is a direct violation of FCRA laws. This company claim that I owe {$1200.00}. This has caused me multiple denials, due to account being in collections. Also hindering my mortgage process.

I never had a debt owed to XXXX. They sold information to a company which is now stating I opened an account with them XX/XX/2022. That information is false Ive never opened an account with this company before. They are claiming I owe them {$1900.00}. Which is false. This information is reporting falsely to all the credit agencies and needs to be removed immediately. They dont have any knowledge of me opening anything or my signature on anything.

I have never actually recieved a notification of debt let alone actual proof that the debt is real. I don't want to legitimize a debt that doesn't exist. This is not the first time I have been dinged on my credit by a past debt to XXXX. My bill to XXXX was paid out by XXXX when we switched to them, the last debt collectors backed off after I disputed it because they never sent me actual documentation. That was almost 4 years ago for that company.

This collection account is reporting as OPEN. . According to the FCRA, I have the right to an accurate credit report. Pursuant to 18 USC 8, I owe no debt. This company is violating my consumer right to privacy pursuant to 15 USC 1681b 2. This company isnt the original creditor. Im no longer liable for this debt, being that the original creditor already sold my debt to you. Meaning youve been paid for my debt and Im no longer liable for this debt

I have an old debt on my credit report and they keep changing the date that it was incurred. This debt was reported originally in XXXX and its now saying it was opened two years ago. I have disputed it with XXXX a couple of times over the years and nothing changes. I have had no contact with the creditor and there is no reason for it to be re-started. I have attached past reports, showing it being closed and then they re-opened it again in XXXX.

I review my credit report constantly due to being an identity theft victim several years ago and notice that I still have 5 collection accounts that have never contacted me by mail or phone. One is for XXXX XXXX which was my ex husband 's accounts. Every complaint I make results in immediate contact by the collection company. It has been several years and at this point have done everything to prove I am a victim. This ruined My life way to long.

I did not open this account. I can only assume my ex husband opened this under my name when we were legally separated, or perhaps one of his friends did, but I DID NOT. i have told this to every agency or collector that calls me about it. This is NOT MY ACCOUNT! I never had that phone number, I had no knowledge of it being opened in the first place, and can not be responsible for something I didn't do, give permission for even have awareness of!

This account is very old and they keep restarting the debt over and over. The collection agency that has the debt now is Jefferson Capital Systems. I have never talked to them personally but I have disputed this debt through XXXX and XXXX. I never had XXXX service and I do not owe this amount.

Collections Agency : Jefferson Capital Systems I did not have an opportunity to request account validation. According to my credit report, this collections account was opened on XX/XX/2019. However, I did not see it until it posted on my credit report on XX/XX/2019. There was a derogatory remark on my credit report because I never had an opportunity to dispute account validity. Alleged Amount Owed : {$460.00} This company violated federal law.
