Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Subissue: Account status incorrect
Consumer Complaint: XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) completely refuse to update my account. I have notify them several times regarding this on going situation. This debt is currently in collections with TRANSWORLD SYSTEM INC. I have spoke with them as well, They said ; that the account CAN NOT BE UPDATED UNTIL THE ACCOUNT IS PAID IN FULL. However this is mortally unethical, this is preventing my family and I from a place to live. This debt is current and its has being paid by the Treasury Offset Program.Which a monthly deduction is drafted from my social security check every month on time. Unfortunately!!! As the world turns, unforeseen occurrences defaults us all. I fail into a finical strain, and was unable to make my payments. Immediately when I became stable again, I joined this Offset Program to get this debt handle. Also, the balance is incorrect as well. This TRANSWORLD SYSTEM COMPANY IS PREDATORY!!! They are overcharging me. XXXX!!!!! Therefore, it appears to me that I am being penalized because I fail on hard times. I served this country, and I feel this is unjust. Furthermore, this is constantly showing up on my credit file as a collection unpaid. This continues to show up as not being paid at all. This has been well over a year. This account is being paid as agreed and its my right, For it to show, that it is being paid as I have agreed. As a result, will you please get to the bottom of this terrible situation. We deserve a decent place to live. Thank you for your time, please get back to me at your earliest convenience.

Consumer Complaint: Beginning on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX claiming I owed a past due payment I was never aware of in the amount of {$220.00} with a late fee included of {$25.00}. The XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX also claimed and threatened that they could proceed with the Treasury Offset program and/or other collection action if I did not abide by their Voluntary Repayment Agreement. They never stopped sending statements and making claims of putting the account to the Treasury Offset Program, as well as increasing the XXXX they had set at 1 % and increased to 7 %. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from Transworld Systems Inc. ( TSI ), this letter claimed that I initially owed {$200.00} on XXXX XXXX, but they added on : an interest fee of {$1.00}, a fee of {$68.00} and totaled to {$270.00}. The letter that TSI did not coincide with the statements that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX had been sending. On XX/XX/XXXX, a full payment of {$240.00} was made from the Internal Revenue Service ( IRS ) to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX through the Treasury Offset program. However, the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX and TSI has not stopped sending letters with the wrong amounts they claim I owed. On XX/XX/XXXX, the exchange sent a statement claiming it still owed {$220.00} and of course they have received a larger amount from the Treasury Offset Program. To make matters worse, the exchange has not been in contact with TSI to update them that the account has been paid. On XX/XX/XXXX, TSI sent a letter making false claims that the amount owed has not been paid off. TSI has also stated that they have been contracted by the Exchange to initiate an Administrative Wage Garnishment as a threat for not having paid this threat even though it has been paid. The XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX has failed to update this account and TSI that it has been paid off by the method of Treasury Offset program. The XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has also failed to send a statement stating that this account has been paid off and has taken more money than what was owed. Furthermore, the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX has failed to stop all notifications even though this debt was submitted to the Treasury Offset program and has continuously been a nuisance along TSI. It was stated in their letter sent on XX/XX/XXXX, that no notice will be given before I am offset, but that is not the case because the XXXX has contracted TSI to continue sending letters.

You are willingly and knowingly trying to coerce me into making a payment. You are engaging in unlawful extortionate activities that I do not appreciate. Has Transworld Systems filed a 1099c on behalf of this account? I am requesting you provide copy of the trilateral contract.
