Verizon has been reporting a charged-off account on my credit reports, but within just 7 days, they gave me two different answers about who owns the debt. First, they said it was sold to Transworld Systems Inc. (TSI). Then, exactly a week later, they said it was sold to Sequim Asset Solutions. Neither company provided any proper documentation or validation, and Sequim Asset Solutions is not even licensed to collect debt in my state of Illinois. I verified this through the Illinois Department of Financial & Professional Regulation (IDFPR).
Meanwhile, Verizon continues to report the debt themselves, even though they claimed it was sold. They have ignored multiple requests for validation and continue to dodge accountability. I have submitted complaints to the Illinois Attorney General, BBB, and consumer protection agencies, but Verizon gives vague copy-paste responses and refuses to fix the issue. This has harmed my credit, caused emotional stress, and left me stuck in a cycle where no one will take responsibility. If you care about your credit and your rights as a consumer, be very careful before doing business with Verizon.

Verizon Harassed Me Over a Forged Account Linked to an Unlicensed Debt Collector
AUTHOR: Kataria - (United States)

Rebuttal Statement Regarding Verizon’s Conduct I am writing this rebuttal to publicly address and dispute the claims made by Verizon and its affiliated parties regarding the account in question. The handling of this matter has not only been misleading but also legally and ethically questionable. Forgery There is substantial concern that documentation associated with this account may have been altered or created without proper authorization. If Verizon or any third party is in possession of documents used to justify collections or reporting, I challenge the legitimacy of those records. No legally binding contract bearing my verified and willing signature exists in connection with the alleged debt. Harassment Despite numerous attempts to clarify and resolve this issue, I have been subjected to ongoing harassment including repeated collection attempts, calls, letters, and damaging credit reporting. This conduct continued even after clear, written disputes and formal demands for verification were sent. This behavior is not only emotionally distressing, but it may also violate both: • The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) • The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) Unlicensed Debt Collector Involvement (Sequium Assets Solution) Verizon continues to claim that a third-party debt collection agency owns this account. However, I have written proof from that same debt collector explicitly stating that they do not own or service this debt. Despite this admission, Verizon persists in using this false claim as a shield to avoid responsibility and to deny resolution. This raises the question: Why is Verizon continuing to insist on an arrangement that even their so called collector denies? This contradiction demonstrates clear bad faith and possible deception. Moreover, using an unlicensed or misrepresented collection agency to handle a disputed account may constitute an unlawful practice. Final Statement This rebuttal is not just a matter of disagreement it reflects the systemic negligence, misrepresentation, and potential legal violations by Verizon and its partners. I reserve the right to pursue this matter through regulatory bodies, legal counsel, and public platforms until a proper resolution is reached and the damage is fully corrected.

You owe the debt and its going to be reported as such.Since it's obvious you're trying to play the role of an experienced professional deadbeat, learn this: The BBB is NOT part of ANY government or law enforcement entity and they call themselves "the bureau" TO DECEIVE the public just like they DECEIVED you. The BBB is a PAY-FOR-PLAY SCAM. They are NOT your friend and they are NOT going to help you. The BBB has ZERO POWER over ANY business! The ONLY purpose of the BBB and their well known DECEPTION is to SELL their PHONEY RATINGS to anyone willing to buy them. The BBB CON-GAME should have been SHUT down years ago with the heads of the outfit as well as their local capos flushed back into the nearest septic tank they crawled out from.
