Convergent also known as Convergent Outsourcing, Inc. and Jefferson Capital Systems, LLC.  They're trying collect an eronious debt in the amount of $2,200.13 claiming it is an HSBC account.  I don't have, nor did I ever have and HSBC credit card, loan or bank account.  They're now offering me to settle for $1,100.20.  I believe they make these collections up thinking someone is ignorant enough to pay them.  They should be investigated for fraud.

Jefferson Capital Systems are bottom feeders.

I know exactly how you feel about this bottom feeding a lying company.  Yesterday I got a letter from them saying I owed a $1240 debt so I contacted them and was told that I had to pay it or agree a repayment plan right away or it would go on my credit report as a negative account that is in collections.  I said to the forceful woman who wouldn't give me her name and told her I'll check my reports and call back.

Upon checking my reports I found they had already reported it as a collection account at Experian and Equifax as a debt from 1969 and trying to get me to pay for a supposed bank debt that I took out when I was only 12 years old and living in the UK lol.

So I phoned back and this time got a man who again wouldn't give me his name and explained all of what I had found out.  His reply was "we don't make mistakes like that and it's just you lying to try to wriggle out of a valid debt"  I then asked why they were trying to report a debt from 1969 as a new debt in collection on my credit report and he just hung up on me after telling me "you'll be the one who suffers from lying to us"!!

 

I have disputed both entries on my credit reports and I'll update this once I get an answer from the credit agencies.  But as I included proof of my age and location back in 1969 I expect they will vanish in short order.

 

I expected to be dealing with a company that would work with me to rectify a mistake of their making but it seems that all they are interested in is getting money from you at any cost even when you can prove them wrong!!
