Who is Chase Receivables?

Chase Receivables, formerly known as Credit Bureau of Napa County, Inc., is a California-based debt collection agency that provides a range of collection services. Despite the similar name, it’s important to clarify that this agency is not affiliated with the banking giant, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

Chase Receivables also has offices in the following cities:

  • Harahan, LA
  • Fairfield, NJ
  • Hawthorne, NY
  • Petaluma, CA

Their appearance on your credit report indicates an unpaid bill that they are tasked with recovering.

Who does Chase Receivables collect for?

Chase Receivables is known for offering debt collection services to an array of clients across various sectors. These sectors range from the automobile industry, where they handle auto deficiency debts, to the financial services sector, healthcare, physician billing agencies, and even credit unions.

They are particularly known for working with direct marketing firms, telecommunications companies, utilities, and bank cards. One of their most high-profile clients is Verizon.

Is Chase Receivables legit or a scam?

Chase Receivables is a legitimate third-party collection agency. They operate within the legal frameworks governing debt collection and are authorized to collect on behalf of their clients. However, it’s important to verify any debts they claim you owe before making any payments.

How can I remove Chase Receivables from my credit report?

Collections can hurt your credit score and stay on your credit report for up to seven years, even if you pay them. Paying the collection might even lower your credit score.

However, it is possible to remove a collection account from your credit history before seven years.

(Though debt collectors may not want this widely known, it’s your right to be informed.)

Will Chase Receivables sue me or garnish my wages?

The possibility of a lawsuit or wage garnishment by Chase Receivables depends largely on the laws of your state and the nature of the debt in question. However, generally, if a consumer fails to repay a debt, the collection agency may decide to file a lawsuit.

If the agency wins the case, it may obtain a judgment against the consumer and be able to garnish the consumer’s wages or bank accounts. However, this is not an inevitable outcome and there are often many steps in the process where arrangements can be made to repay the debt.
