Consumer complaint received 2023-11-08 00:00:00
Product: Debt collection — Telecommunications debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INC
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
Transworld has posted a collection account to all 3 of the credit bureaus for XXXX. The original first date of delinquency is even older then the XX/XX/2017 that they say. This debt was previously posted on my credit reports years ago and went past the statute of limitations on it. I had all 3 bureaus investigate this matter and XXXX saw thru and removed it, XXXX and XXXX did not, although I'm having it reinvestigated thru XXXX. It would appear to me that Transworld pulled some finagaling in regards to this and posting it to my reports as if it is some new debt, which it is not. As I understand these type of tactics are unfair and illegal. I have never admitted to debt, arranged any payment plan or recieved any correspondence from/with Transworld.I would like this matter to be put to rest and stop the harassment of reposting this
