Is Transworld Systems legit or a scam?
Transworld Systems is a legitimate debt collection company. In fact, they are one of the largest debt collectors and accounts receivable management companies in the world. Transworld Systems is hired by companies to assist them in debt recovery of past due accounts.

How can I remove Transworld Systems from my credit report?
Collections can hurt your credit score and remain on your credit report for up to seven years regardless of whether you pay it or not. Unfortunately, paying the collection could even lower your credit score.
However, it is possible to remove a collection account from your credit history before seven years.
(While debt collectors may not want this information to be widely known, it’s your right to be informed.)

Should I contact or pay Transworld Systems?
It’s best to avoid speaking to a collection agency on the phone. And making payments on the debt will reset the clock. As a result, it could harm your credit rather than improve it. Of course, there are times when it’s best to just pay it, especially if it’s new, and you’re certain that it’s legit.
The most effective way to deal with Transworld Systems is to work with a credit repair professional. They help remove millions of negative items every year from companies like Transworld Systems on behalf of their clients.
Will Transworld Systems sue me or garnish my wages?
It’s possible that a debt collection agency will resort to litigation and seek wage garnishment, but if you work with a law firm like Lexington Law, you have nothing to worry about. They help you dispute the Transworld Systems collection account with the credit bureaus and possibly remove it from your credit report. It’s also possible that you never hear from or have to deal with TSI again.
Wage Garnishment
Some states allow wage garnishment, while others do not. If you are in a state that does not allow wage garnishment, it is illegal for a debt collector to threaten to garnish your wages.
It is also illegal for Transworld Systems to make any claims they cannot or will not follow through on. This includes threatening to sue you or foreclose on your home.
Is Transworld Systems hurting my credit score?
Missed payments over several months will cause a hit to your credit score. With a Transworld Systems collection on your credit report, it will reduce your ability to qualify for new credit even more.
Debt collection companies often buy and sell debt from one another, so this can lead to multiple collections placed on your credit report for the same account.
To get an account removed, you must file a separate dispute with each credit bureau; Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion, or it can negatively impact your credit score.
Transworld Systems Complaints
Most debt collection agencies have numerous complaints filed against them with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and the Better Business Bureau (BBB).
Most consumer complaints are about inaccurate reporting, harassment, or failure to verify a debt. If you find yourself facing any of these situations with a debt collection company, you should also consider filing a complaint.
Despite the horrible customer reviews, Transworld Systems currently has an A+ rating with the BBB.
You have many consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). These rights include the ability to dispute credit reporting errors and to be treated fairly and respectfully by debt collectors.
