Consumer Complaint: We received a letter from Jefferson Capital Systems LLC stating we had an outstanding balance. I called and spoke to a representative asking where this originated because we didnt have any account with XXXX, which was listed as the debt description. The representative could only tell me it was from a store called XXXX the balance and when it was supposed to have occurred which was 2 years ago. We never made a purchase and weve never been alerted to any fraudulent activity on my social. I told them to mark our account as disputed but this all still feels really strange and scammy.

The account was discharged and released off of my credit report. In XXXX, Jefferson Capital Systems acquired my information from XXXX XXXX XXXX and began harassing me about the same debt which was paid in XXXX. Jefferson Capital Systems applied a derogatory mark on my consumer report for collection of this same paid-off debt. My credit score dropped XXXX points due to this. I am currently trying to resolve the matter with them but they are not responding swiftly or with any sense of urgency.

Consumer Complaint: 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.
