I have been paying every month and now they have no record of me owing anything. I was told worlwide assets bought my debt and i am paying an attorney for them. I want to pay this off, but unlike my other credit cards, worldwide wont settle for less, and i was also told there would be no interest added if i paid on time every month, which i have and now i have 14% interest being added, what can i do?

I called this company three years ago in response to a letter from them. I was put on hold for 45 minutes and eventually hung up. I never heard from them until I received a letter dated 11/2/2009 (from an attorney))offering me a 45% reduction in whatever I owed them. There was no amount listed nor any information as to who I supposedly owe this money to.. Today, 12/21/2009, I received a letter saying they have a judgment against me and I owe $12,000. The judgment comes from Arizona but I now live in Oregon and have been here 6 months. The company claims I was served with papers but I wasn't and didn't know this was going to court...I wasn't even in the state. The company apparently doesn't have my previous Arizona address or my current Oregon address as all mail from them is addressed to me but using my daughter's address. Since they don't have my address how could I have been served? I don't have any idea who these people are or to whom I owe the money, I wasn't served with any papers whatsoever. An unusual statement in today's letter is Worldwide Asset Purchasing claim the judgment against me (in Arizona) is a "foreign judgment".
Does anyone know if they can put a lien on my house or car? I live on SS and get direct deposit, can they attach my bank account? This is awful and, after reading the situations with others I am not sure what to do. I did file a complaint with the FTC.

I just noticed on the 11/02/2009 letter received from Worldwide Asset that they gave me until 12/28/2009 to accept their offer of 45 % of whatever it is I owe them. Today is 12/21/2009 and they claim they have a judgment against me..... so what happened to 12/28 and the 45 % off?

Have you ever had a credit card with Alaskan Airlines? I had a credit card called that (found out it was through Bank of America). After 6 years of dealing with them I finally settled with this one collection company. They said my debt was $16,000 (original amount on the card was $3,500). I paid the settlement cost of $3,000 in Sept. 09. In March of 2010 I got a letter from Asset Management Professionals (Worldwide Asset Purchasing was their "client") stating that they were trying to take care of this debt. I sent them a copy of my settlement agreement that stated I had paid the debt. I didn't hear from THAT company again.

Today I got 5 calls from Niagra Credit Solutions informing them I owed them $16,500 and I needed to pay immediately. I explained that I had paid off the debt, that it had been taken off my credit report, that I had already dealt with this other company. That's when they told me they were collecting for their "client" Worldwide...

I called the first collection company that said they represented Worldwide and they said they had received my letter and had reported it back to Worldwide. I then called Niagra and they said they could only report it taken care of if I faxed them a copy of the letter and a copy of my canceled check (front AND back) and they had to be able to see the account numbers clearly. ???? Serious red flag there.

I asked for Worldwide's phone number and was given 1-800-305-9811, but when I called I got a company named Galaxy.

I received a letter as well. I asked WWAP if they could supply me with the name of the company that sent me to their collection agency, and he stated he does not have a telephone #, and i asked well how are you going to pay them once i pay you. He got sarcastic with me. I knew something was up from the beginning because i never had a credit card in may name period. They want me to send 600.00 as a settlement for the 2595.38 collection amount, and they said my credit was good but it would be better if i paid the 600.00 to keep it off my credit. WOW!! They are good, but we are better, we need to file a class action law suit, and i hope everyone joins in, so lets get busy and do this. So if there is a class action lawsuit, someone please inform us, and we need to find out who the attorney is and get his number, so we can photocopy these letters we are getting. So someone please help us.

I had been sued by World assets Purchasing for a debt that was from a credit card. I recently declared bankruptcy and since then I have received a letter and a check from them for a small amount. Is this a "payoff" so that I do not sue them for all the years of pestering me?

never heard of that.i'm guessing it's a veiled attempt at getting your new bank info.you see once you deposit or cash it at your bank.this bottomfeeder will have the new accut number and routing number.cash it at a currency exchange if you can.better yet return it,and tell them where they can put their check.btw when did you file?that could tell the story.

I would like to empower as many people as I can with information that will help. Worldwide Asset Purchasing LLC has other debt collection agencies handle the cases for them, or they are companies they own. I believe they had a merger back in 2008 with a West Asset Management company. I have had 3 different collection companies call me. I was even the idiot and authorized one of the collection companies to take a small payment from my bank account. I believe they tried to take more than I authorized, because someone from the office called back the next week to ask for my account information again, because the bank refused the authorization for payment due to Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF). I knew that was a lie because I was paid the very day I authorized the payment. I believe they tried to take more than I had in the bank. DO NOT MAKE THAT MISTAKE PLEASE. If you get a summons, check the court website or go to the court, make sure the document is stamped with the courts seal. It is not official if it is not. Answer the complaint as soon as possible, and make the court date. I did, because they would not accept my $50.00 a month. I am a single mom, on disability. I was told by one of their employees that they had checked my credit report and that my credit was good enough for me to get a loan. The Judge is going to deal with them, because they did not file the case management statement. The address below is the website of a lawyer who won a lawsuit against Worldwide Asset Purchasing for unfair debt collection practices. Explore all links on the site. The site may have answers for many of you.

My account was charged off in 11/2001. In 1/04 there was a judgement issued... never gave it any thought.. then they garnished my bank acct for over $2000 in 2008, then put a new date on the credit report as judgement being filed 06/08 (same month they stole the money), and NEVER deducted this amount from the original of $4920, now they have attorney's letters stating over $7500... they're lawsuit runs out in Jan. (7 yrs)..what is even weirder is that the original company after writing it off sent me a bill 6 months later??? The company they're suing for was bought out in 2005... lot happening here... what would be the recourse at this point?? If the company was sold and it has been 10 years with their 7 yr judgement running out in 3 months... would you write them and ask them to provide the last payment, amount owed and question who they're getting the money for if it no longer exists??

I filed a chapter 13 July 2010. Worldwide Asset Purchasing II has filed a proof of claim c/o B-Line LLC for $7,582.05. I have no knowledge of Worldwide Asset Purchasing II or B-Line LLC. I have instructed my bankruptcy attorney to not pay this company any funds. I am waiting for a return call from my bankrupty attorney. Sounds like Worldwide Asset has cause a lot of problems.

This company is amazing! Ive been running my credit for the pass year. Trying to fix it and get it in good standing. When finally I thought I should have a high credit score to my surprise West Asset Purchasing LLC reported me as having a collection with them. I tried to call the toll Free Number and all I received was an answering machine. Seriously? I have left multiple messages and no call back. Then after reading everyone’s posts came to the conclusion that I use to have a Bank of America credit card with a similar balance that I had already fully paid off and closed. I went back and tracked that Bank of American account and Surprise …. surprise… it’s the same amount, same date opened but now West Asset Purchasing LLC just opened that same account and is now trying to collect on it.. But that was already paid off and closed! Because of this company my credit score dropped! This is unbelievable! Now I have to argue with someone to get this off my credit report!!
PEOPLE PLEASE… double check your accounts and make sure you didn’t already pay it off. West Asset Purchasing LLC is a FRAUD… they are just opening closed accounts and are trying to collect on it.
Im so glad I know who I owe money too and what debt I have already paid!
Now I have to Fight to get this off my Credit Report!

I had a default judgement placed against me 5 years ago by WWAP. Now my husband and I are trying to buy a house and our lender has told us the judgement has to be paid and vacated before we can proceed any further.

My problem is that they claim I owe them 60% MORE than the original debt for a total of $8100. I will never in my life have anywhere CLOSE to that kind of money, but want to settle with them. Is there any chance they'd take 25% of what they say I owe? I can come up with that with my tax return, but no more. Anyone have any ideas?

After reading all of your posts I am terrified to even contact these people! Please help! Thanks!
