What you may not be aware of is that any Collection Company doing business in the state you reside in has to be licensed to do business in that state. So, what you need to do is take everything you have and write a complaint to your states Department of Licensing. They will actually do a valuable investigation into your complaint. What this also does is to take your individual circumstances and threatens the Collection Company with their ability to collect anything from anyone in the entire State into the future. It also puts your circumstance on file with the state and can be referenced by them in any future problems any resident of the sate might file with them.
Good Luck and Happy Trails!

This company recently also started doing business as NVLV out of Las Vegas. In any other terms they'd be called organised crime. Keep an eye on credit reports. They are also fond of illegally re-ageing old debts. They are also known to litigate on debts that are far past statues of limitations (hoping that you won't show up) to get a default judgment. Never talk to them on the telephone (unles you are recording), only communicate by mail. You can find a violation of the FDCPA in almost every letter you get from them. When the debt purchasing industry id finally brought to light in government, etc. I'd bet that this is one of the first companies to go down, with even jail terms for the higher-ups.

Alegis Group LP, Greenville, SC stating, This account was purchased by Sherman Acquisition LP and placed with Alegis Group LP for servicing. We have received your recent inquiry regarding this account and are in the process of investigating your claim. Once a determination is made, we will contact you with the results of our research. FOLKS THESE PEOPLE IF YOU LOOK AT YOUR COLLECTION LETTERS HAVE ABOUT 25 LAW FIRMS UNDER THEIR HEADINGS.AND CREDIT COLLECTION SERVICES TOO. THEY ARE ALL LOCATED IN THE SAME BUILDING IN NORTH CAROLINA. I GOT THEIR PAPERS ONA OLD CREDIT CARD I DID NOT PAY OFF DUE TO FRAUD BYT THE CREDIT CARD COMPANY.THE CARD COMPANY WAS INVOLVED WITH CRIMINAL CONSUMER FRAUD AND WAS TAKEN TO COURT IS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT. IN FACT THE CREDIT CARD COMPANY LOST 3 LAW SUITS BACK TO BACK,AND WAS FOR ALL PEOPLE THAT HAD ACCOUNTS DATING BACK TO THE YEAR 2000. I was in all three of the courts,and class actions and then closed and told the company about their loose in feceral district court. Since that time I am a disabled Veteran,and this law firm started to write and call me WELL I PUT stop on them too real fast. I wrote them and showed them the law suits and court papers as to the losses in court and did a cease and desist on not only their main law firm but all companies,lawyers,and collection agencies and if they contacted me again i would sue them under the ADA laws and rules. Also this firm was going to ake out money from my bank account and take me to court. Well, as a disabled veteran there is a law under federal rules CFR-38 , that all collections for disabled veterans can not be garnished,stolen, released, tranferred,or collected upon. I even wrote my bank BOA and let them know about CFR-38 and the law too which is in my file. Haven't heard a word form these people in months either. I did respond to every letter as to a DISPUTE too and not to contact me cause of the Federal calass action lawsuits where the credit card was found to be GUILTY of Numerous Charges,and fraud agasint the card holders Nationwide. I found that the credit card company had lost to the law firm at www.bigclassaction. com Hope this helps others.

I was referred to this site from a friend after I told him FRS (Financial Recovery Services) had been calling & leaving their toll free number, but then when I returned their call per their request, they said they were looking for "John Souza" and would hang up on me. Their activity strikes me as odd, to say the least. Especially using telemarketing tools to "search" for an individual. Now, after reading the above reports, I am convinced this company--and their affiliantes--is conducting their "business" inappropriately, maybe even illegally. So, if I may suggest to all those who are having problems with this company to contact the Federal Trade Commission and/or the Federal Communications Commission, and regarding the letters received from FRS, the U.S. Postal Inspector General's Office to report mail fraud. Here's some helpful Websites: www.ftc.gov, www.fcc.gov, www.usps.com. Go to the government Websites' "consumer protection" pages to get info on how to report this company. Good luck to you all!

Joseph: Please dont fall for this con. Sherman Financial GP, Alegis GP LP, LVNV Funding, Ventus Capital Services and Resurgent Capital Services are all the same company. Address: 15 s. Main St, Suite 600, Greenville SC 29601. FAX #(864) 678-8794. Resurgent Capital Services, may try to send you a "Original Affidavit of Debt" as verification of debt, (it is not worth the paper it is written on. Demand a signature card or a copy of the sell with your signature on it. Chances are they cant. If you can FAX your demand to them also and keep the record of the Fax. Good Luck

Back in the last part of June, I received yet another "initial notification" from FRS stating: 'LVNV Funding LLC has acquired your above-referenced account and the current servicer of account, Resurgent Capital Services, Inc. has place it with this agency for collection.' As they have done before, they give the same treatment by changing company names to make it sound very serious matter. Today July 21, I have placed with them, yet another dispute on the validity of the debt or any portion thereof and "m requesting them to obtain verification of debt as well as name and address of the original credit grantor. The first time I did, they never sent any replies and I'm sure I won't get any this time either. A company with just a P. O. Box and no physical address is not to be trusted. This is just another cheap shot at trying to get people's money by scarring them with "legal notices" My next step is to get a lawyer to come after them for fraudulent billing. Financial Recovery Services, what a big SCAM
