Does LVNV sue past the sol?

LVNV is a shell game of various conpanies. Resurgent is LVNV and vice versa. If the SOL has run, time for legal action is over. From what I've heard though, LVNV and their group of companies will try anything, whether it is legal or not.

LVNV is on my credit report, but Resurgent and Capital send me bills.

Have you sent a letter demanding that they validate the alleged debt?

Yeah and they send bills from both companaies and tell me the other is handling my account.

I think the SOl is past.

From my research, this is a well know tactic of LVNV et al. It gets to the point where you don't know who is actually handling the debt (even though all the companies are indeed one). I'd send the letter to all of them. Check your credit report and see what the date of last activity was on this debt. If the SOL has run, let them know.

My husband and I just ran his credit the other day because we are filing bankruptcy and I noticed LVNV has him on there for like $1900. We do not know who they are collecting for because before now I had never heard of them. Guess I will be giving them a call!! He has a judgement of around the same amount from GE Capital that we have been paying $50 a month to Javitch, Rathbone, and Block for so maybe LVNV has it now?? I'm confused!!!

LVNV and it's various companies are debt purchasers. Last I read, they buy a lot of old Sears and Providian debts. I doubt that they purchased the debt you mentioned because to the best of my knowledge, judgments are rarely purchased, and this is all LVNV is interested in. LVNV was formerly Sherman Acquisitions. The name got so bad a reputation I guess they changed it (again).

Hm...then I have absolutely no idea what they are on his report for. He had a Sears card but it was paid in full. I am going to have to give them a call! Thanks LawStudent for the info.

Sassy,they are known for being law breakers.If you can record in your state,please do that for your own protection.

Ohio is a one party consent for recording so record ahead sass

I found out today that LVNV funding just purchased this GE/Lowe's account in March. I don't understand why they would but I guess it doesn't matter. But like I said, I have been paying Javitch, Rathbone, and Block for the debt. They represented Lowes in filing the default judgement.

Be carefull in dealing with LVNV, and their MANY companies. I have been dealing with all of them for over a year. Now Weltman Weinberg, and Reise,attorneys collecting for them, are in the picture. LVNV breaks all sorts of regulations. I would not tlak to them by phone, all you get is rude,nasty people. If you do, keep notes or recored if it it legal. I follow up calls or letters with one of my own,stating the people did this, and said that. I recently got a settlement offer for over 60% of the detb from WW&R, but they won't send a paid settled letter, until later, after I send payment. They will send a settle-for less one. So I am sending them a CC letter stating they things we talked about over the phone, and her saying that the leftover balance will not be sold-even if she wouldn't say that in a letter. It may really pi** them off, but oh well!!..KAren

Sassnlucy, yes, record all of the calls you have with them, for evidence. You wouldn't believe how many times this company is sued. If I were you, I would sue them after a few violations. generally, a case probably won't hold up over one or two violations, but with these guys you'll get plenty.

Bossy, that was wise of you, because indeed WW&R would try to collect the remaining 40%.

I'm going to file them in my chapter 13 bankruptcy so I am not going to bother with them since I know who they are collecting for. The only thing I don't understand is why is Javitch, Rathbone, and Block still taking my money? They were collecting FOR Lowe's and now LVNV has the account?

I would mention this to your attorney, because LVNV generally only tries to collect debts it has purchased.

HM.....I am going to see the paralegal tomorrow so I will ask her...after that appt I should be seeing the attorny within a week. This whole thing seems like it has gotten fishy.

Sass,the only legal way I see for this to happen is they purchased debt in a portfolio package.If the lawyer is sending the funds to the proper plce,he is doing his job correctly acting as a middleman.I would contact legal advice and find out just where your money is ending up.
