Consumer Complaint: This week, I have found SW Credit Systems reporting a collection on my credit report. The reports indicate that they were assigned the account on XX/XX/2018, and that it was reported to the credit bureaus on XX/XX/2018. There are two issues with this account – 1 ) I never received a notice in the mail about this debt.
2 ) Even if I had received a notice, the timeframe between XXXX XXXX XXXX receiving the account and when it was reported would not have left enough time for me to dispute the debt.
