Consumer Narrative
I contacted Transworld Systems to pay off a debt that is incorrectly being garnished from my federal XXXX annuity. Total due was {$480000.00} My check has been garnished since 2021 but I noticed that the total amount was wrong. But, in order to stop garnishment, I was willing to pay the TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. The collector said that he wanted an additional XXXX in collections fees to close the debt. after trying to explain I had paid two years of collection fees and penalties, that there is no need to incur fees when i am coming today to pay the debt owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in full today. They refused to take my money. I guess they know that if I dont pay, the will receive thousands of dollars in future collection fees. This is a debt collector hired by the government to collect a debt. I am willing to pay off the full balance. I tried to call the orginal creditor and they refused to take my full payment as well. Im a XXXX veteran, I have very little money. I am trying to make good on a debt and they wont let me pay it off. Is this what I served America for? Really?
