Debt collection: Private student loan debt
Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit
Complaint: I am currently being sued by XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX and I believe the lawsuit falls under the consent order issued by CFPB.
I am filing a complaint so that if the plaintiff is violating the consent order by failing to withdraw the case, the CFPB can take proper action against NCT for the violation.
I am being sued under MD code 3-306 ( affidavit judgment for assigned consumer debt ), since the affidavits filed by the plaintiff are signed by a representative for Transworld Systems Inc, and they are swearing to personal knowledge of the debt, assignment of the debt, etc, I believe this qualifies as one of the lawsuits the consent order was attempting to address in paragraph 49.
I greatly appreciate the time of anyone reading this complaint. Thank you for your time.

Student loan: Private student loan
Need information about your loan balance or loan terms
Complaint: I was forced to use private loans to pay for college in XX/XX/2004 with XXXX XXXX XXXX. The loans were sold to Transworld. I have defaulted on the loans and I, along with my father who co-signed, am now being sued by XXXX. They have harassed me over the last couple of years, threats to my father and myself to take our property. We have received robo calls non-stop which even continued since the court papers were issued. XXXX had several cases against me, 4 of which have been dismissed due to their failure to appear in court. The 5th case is due in court this month after being continued several times at the request of their attorney. I'm trying to research the complaints against XXXX because I believe I am a victim of false documentation and falsified affidavits along with being sued past the NC Statute of Limitations. According to their paperwork, my last loan payment was in XX/XX/2009 and XX/XX/2011, court papers were filed in XX/XX/2015.

Attempts to collect debt not owed
Debt collection: Medical debt
Debt is not yours
Complaint: On XX/XX/XXXX, I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX Emergency Room in XXXX MD. I was treated there and I had health insurance. I was covered under XXXX for You.
On XX/XX/XXXX I received a bill for {$810.00} from Transworld Systems stating that they now owned the debt I had with XXXX XXXX XXXX.
I reached out to the hospital, the debt collector, and my insurance company and it appears nobody will help me out.
The hospital is now saying they have nothing to do with it, the debt collector is saying that they can not submit anything to the insurance company, and the insurance company is saying they wouldn't approve it even if it was submitted ( because it's over a year old ).
This is not a debt I should owe. I was covered for this service on this date. It was and is the fault of the hospital for not sending this to the insurance company. They are claiming that they sent me letters asking for insurance, but the address they claim to have used is not my address - and hasn't been for over 3 years.
So, basically, the debt collector wants me to send them {$810.00} for something I should have never owed a XXXX for - and because they sent me this correspondence over a year past the date of service, my hands are completely tied. This is negatively affecting my credit score, which is what I am trying to clear up.

Complaint: My credit card ( XXXX ) had unauthorized transactions via XXXX XX/XX/2017. Two charges of {$370.00} from someone who had shipped something using my card number. XXXX immediately sent a new credit card and voided the charges. I received invoices from XXXX for a remaining balance of {$110.00} and {$370.00} and called them to inform them of the fraud. They voided the charges as well so now there is a balance of {$0.00} on their end. I called Transworld Systems Inc. ( Collections ) telling them what had happened. They are saying that I owe two balances of {$120.00} and also {$420.00}. They told me they are waiting on XXXX to give them the information, but case has been closed since everything was resolved in XXXX and there is a {$0.00} balance. I am concerned about my credit score since they are trying to collect money from me that I do not owe. I filed a police report and also obtained case numbers from fedex today. XXXX said they can not reopen the case due to the date and there not being a balance. This sounds like something that should be resolved between XXXX and their collections agency, but if neither party are in contact with each other, I'm assuming my credit will take the hit if no actions are taken. I currently do not have a way to scan all of the documents into the attachments, but I am happy to provide whatever is needed via fax.

Complaint: Received a note in the mail from Transworld Systems , Inc. They claimed that they sent me a letter in the mail about a toll charge that was not paid in XXXX. I never received the letter because they sent the violation letter to the wrong address. I offered to pay the toll charge and they insist in charging me XXXX over the XXXX for not responding on the letter that they mailed to the wrong address. They don't seem to want to accept their mistake. My account with them has been put under dispute. I would pay the toll with no problem but a XXXX violation for not receiving a letter or knowing that my XXXX didn't ready when crossed the toll bridge is unacceptable. When you can them to try to solve the issue they are rude and disrespectful on the phone.

Attempted to collect wrong amount
Complaint: The insurance company XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX ) advised that the claim was filed and they requested numerous times from the hospital additional information that they did not receive to process the claim. The Hospital ( XXXX XXXX ) states that the insurance company needed a medical release form for any pre-existing medical condition from me and that was holding up the processing of the claim. The insurance company was provided a medical release from me when I purchased the insurance policy to review any pre-existing conditions and they never requested from me an additional medical release so that information is untrue. The hospital turned the debt over to Transworld Systems Inc., who has never contacted me only reported it my credit report the incorrect dates for services and amounts and I have contacted them several times about this and they advised that XXXX XXXX has confirmed that they have the correct dates and amounts which is untrue. When I contacted XXXX XXXX they gave me different dates and amounts which I have recorded. Additionally, in one of my most recent telephone conferences with XXXX XXXX I was advised by a billing supervisor that they claim was not filed correctly and that this account would be wrote off their books. The hospital also filed the claim with XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX insurance companies neither of which I had medical insurance with. The dates I was in admitted for observation are XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. The billing statement sent to me from XXXX just a couple weeks ago shows billing charges for XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX which are incorrect. The collection agency has the amount of XXXX to be collected on my credit report and the hospital is stating that I owe XXXX that include charges for dates that I was not even in the hospital and the year as XX/XX/XXXX not XX/XX/XXXX. I have tried several times to get this matter corrected and neither the hospital, the insurance company nor the collection agency are willing to help. I advised them that I would be filing complaints with the Missouri Attorney General 's office, the FTC and the XXXX XXXX XXXX. The billing supervisor at the hospital advised me that I should also file a complaint with the state health medical insurance agency also and laughed. This is almost 6 years old and I am tired of fighting with the hospital, insurance company and collection agency. They know what they are doing is wrong.

Debt was paid
Complaint: Transworld Systems , Inc is a debt collector for XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX I moved from XXXX to XXXX and paid all utility bills in full prior to relocating. In XX/XX/XXXX I noticed XXXX added a collection account to my credit. I disputed this information with XXXX and provided my proof of payment in full. They removed their account but in turn sold the account to Transworld Systems , Inc in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX I signed up with a Credit Counseling company called XXXX and I provided Transworld Systems , Inc with a certified letter asking them to validate this debt within 30 days. They never provided the information but removed the erroneous information from all 3 credit bureaus. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an alert from XXXX XXXX that a new collection account is on my credit and my score dropped 15 points. This new collection account is from Transworld Systems , Inc with an original creditor as XXXX. I have been disputing this for 4 years and initially XXXX removed it but sold it to Transworld Systems, Inc. I disputed with Transworld Systems, Inc and they removed it since they couldn't validate the debt and now this is the 3rd time this has appeared back on my credit file. I have not received any letters in the mail or received any phone calls from a live person to discuss this since I spoke with XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. Transworld Systems , Inc and XXXX are working to erroneously add items to my credit without following any of the CFPB regulations regarding reporting delinquent information to the credit bureaus. Considering they removed the debt twice after receiving certified letters from me, proves the debt is not valid so I am not sure why they would legally be allowed under any CFPB or Fair Credit Reporting Act to continue to add erroneous items to my credit report after they have been disputed and removed.

Attempted to collect wrong amount
Complaint: I had a credit card with XXXX, a retail store that is on military bases. in XX/XX/2008 it went into default for XXXX.. never received anything from them until TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC started garnishing my wages at 25 percent and is garnishing a total of about XXXX. Never got a communication or sopona to appear in court, never received any letter from either XXXX or TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC.
Also the garnishment is showing as a Student loan, I do not have any student loans.
Apparently Transworld systems is also part of the same group of which XXXX XXXX is a part of. About 3 years ago i was going through the exact same thing with XXXX XXXX and eventually they returned the Money they were Garnishing and stopped Garnishing me after an inquiry from CPFB.
I never learned what happened because CPFB doesn't disclose the results of their inquiry.

Complaint: Dear whom with concern, Hope all is well. I'm XXXX XXXX and thanks for your help.
Actually, I got a letter from collection company 'Transworld System Inc. '.
This is related with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called to the company and they said it's about {$320.00} for 3 toll violation collections. Each is {$100.00} and the original amount is less than $ XXXX. I don't know when was the violations. I have XXXX account and I always pay the toll automatically by the Tag by XXXX since XX/XX/2016. I have all the transaction histories.
I called the XXXX and they told me it's already transferred to the collection company and they don't let me know when was the violations. And the collection company wants to contact XXXX.
so could you contact them and adjust total amount? I'll pay for the original amount but I can not pay over {$300.00} for them. And I'm worry about my credit history.
I attached the letter for {$210.00} and evidence of XXXX account since XX/XX/2016.
Thanks, XXXX XXXX
