North Star Capital Acquisitions, LLC

Company Owner

This company has been calling my office asking for someone we dont know and have no connection with. We have asked repeatedly for them to stop but they continue to call. I called them to today to ask once again to stop but they assuse me of hiding this person!! I did some reasearch on them today and found many complaints on the web like mine. Any chance on a class action on this Co like what is going on with the anti fax attorneys??

pro se

Yes, I have problems too. they are suing my wife, and they have violated several FDCPA laws and they have lied in Affidavids as well as other unconcionable acts,

Housewife

This company is suing me for $953.98 plus attorney fee of $145.00. I have never heard of North Star Capital or did any type of business with them. A lot of people posted
comments about this company and are saying basically the same as I. However, I will find out what's going on and get to the bottom of this fraudalent situation.

North Star Capital Acquisitions filed a Marshall's Notice of Execution against me for a credit card debt that had a balance of less than $400 with Capital One. The debt is now recorded to be over $1,000. Capital One refused to close the account even though I was hospitalized. So, the account accrued. The execution states that my personal property can be sold at Public Auction and 10 percent of my salary levied. I am only now getting myself together after four years and I don't even have any personal property. I rent an apt. and travel via public transportation. These are Gestapo tactics! These people need to be stopped.

#5 - Michele - 09/25/2009 - 18:13

This company is messed up!!!! My wife is also being sued by them for a bogus $1,170 dollars. MY WIFE has NEVER had any credit..NEVER..

single mom

THIS COMPANY HAS PUT A GARNISHMENT ON MY ACCOUNT FOR $1750.00. YET WHEN I'VE CALLED THEM THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF MY NAME OR ACCOUNTS WITH ANYONE I'VE DONE BUSINESS WITH. THEY HAVE EVEN ASKED IF I AM SOMEONE ELSE AND HAVE GIVEN NAMES OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS AND THEIR ACCOUNTS. I HAVE CALLED MY FAMILY MEMBERS AND HAVE TOLD THEM TO HIRE AN ATTORNEY TO SUE THEM FOR DISCLOSURE OF THEIR PERSONAL INFORMATION.

#7 - JENNIFER - 10/10/2009 - 12:23

My mom was served with an execution order yesterday and they freakin debited her bank account and made it negative and they say she owes them 4over $1500 dollars! please somebody tell me who these people are!

I had an account with Wells Fargo that supposely sold this account to North Star Capital. I don't have a problem with paying my debt but this is a third party company that I do not have a clue about. They turn my account over to an attorney Berman & Rabin, PA whom does not seem to be legit to me. Now this so called law firm is threatening me with.

#9 - kim - 10/27/2009 - 11:34

Debt collectors may not use any false or misleading statements when collecting a debt. For example, debt collectors may not:

Tell you that they are attorneys or government representatives, when in fact, they are not;
Falsely imply that you have committed a crime;
Misrepresent that they operate or work for a credit bureau;
Misrepresent the amount of your debt;
Indicate that papers being sent to you are not legal forms when they in fact, are;
State that you will be arrested if you do not pay your debt;
Threaten to seize, garnish, attach, or sell your property or wages, unless the collection agency or creditor intends to do so, and it is a legal action;
Threaten that actions, such as a lawsuit, will be taken against you, when such action legally may not be taken, or when they do not intend to take such action.

#13 - Maureen - 01/25/2010 - 09:44

I see I'm not alone...

I just recieved a collection notice listing this company as the creditor.
Since I have had no dealings with this company,or any other creditor... I'm trying to figure out how they think I owe them $1,298.37 ???

#14 - Steve - 02/02/2010 - 10:21

You can beat this company!!!

This company operates illegally on every level. If you get sued by them or any law firm representing them, always send them a certified letter disputing the validitiy of the debt. Trust me, they won\'t have the original paperwork from the original creditor. If they don\'t drop the suit, file a Sworn Denial with the court and send a copy to the law firm. Then, go to court. Ask, in court, for the orginal contract/agreement from the plaintiff (the lawfirm suing you), and watch them crap their pants. And, Never, and I mean NEVER agree to anything with an attorney before you go before the judge. They want you to either not show up, and get a judgement by default or get intimidated and settle with them before you see the judge. If you can file a Motion to dismiss right after you file your sworn denial. Chances are they\'ll back off and drop the law suit. Then counter sue them for every Federal, State and local violation you can find in STATE COURT! BAM! There it is. Take them on.

#15 - John Doe - 02/16/2010 - 20:33

I have received a letter from attorney who are representing North Star Capital Acquisition LLC and they say my case its DISMISSAL!!

#16 - Tess - 02/17/2010 - 18:18

North Star Capital Acquisition LLC

I received and small postcard notice in the mail notifying of a "Styled Cause" for "Dismissal Docket". I have no idea what this is for and the only phone # on the is notice is for the court. It says Styled "North Star Capital Acquisition LLC" That's the only reference to who is brought this to court. The notice also goes on to say if I don't appear it may result in a default judgement. What does all this mean? I declared bankruptcy three years ago and everything was included in this. Can someone shed some light on this?

#17 - Cara - 02/21/2010 - 07:21

steph

I just recieved something in the mail from them for saying they are going to garnish money from my bank account...but they don't tell me how much or anything like that. they say it is from July 2008 well what the heck for!! I am going to hopefully get ahold of them tomorrow...this is just so weird that I have never got a phone call from them or anything and this is the first time I have got anything in the mail from them.

#18 - Steph - 02/22/2010 - 20:49

I am writing this letter or comment to you I just received something through the mail today and I do not even no who they are north Star Capital acquistion LLC I have no credit card and nevery had a credit card through them and I do not even know who they are and they have me having a court date and I do no even know anything about this so I will not be going to court when I do not even know who they are and what this is all about. And if they are saying I owe them money how can I owe money to someone I don't even know what company they are and who they are. I have canceled the exmination date and will not be attending they have not even sent me anything and then I get this notice what kind of a company are they

#19 - Laura Johnson - 02/24/2010 - 13:41

This company has other collection agencies attempt to get the money. I got a letter from 2 different agencies for the same account with the credit llisted as North Star Capital. I keep disputing the debt with each collection agency & they remove it from my credit profile, however, they keep selling it off to a new agency. My debt is 10+ years old which is beyond the legal time limit to collect and list on my credit profile. I do not know how to get this north star company to close this account out.

#20 - Kelly - 03/15/2010 - 14:44

Well, we just got a notice from the IRS that North Star reported to them an amount of $1,540.00, and we now have to pay the IRS $550.00, "which includes all applicable penalties, interest and payment adjustments such as federal tax withholding, excess social sercurity tax withheld, etc." My husband spoke to the IRS and was informed that anyone can report anything to the IRS without having to prove anything to the IRS. ... p.s. we have never had any dealings with North Star

#21 - CJ - 04/13/2010 - 16:41

Filed Lawsuit

On June 1st I was served court papers for lawsuit filed by North Star through lawyer for $4000. The NS law suit affadavit was full of lies pertaining to a Wells Fargo account they purchased. I responded to the lawyer and court with my denial answers and requested document discovery for court trial. On July 7th their lawyer applied for a 30 day extenstion to provide me the discovery as North Star will not provide their own lawyer with the documents because I am sure they have none. On Aug 7th I will make a motion of the court to dismiss. Always answer your court summons and pleadings denying everything and request them to provide you the proof for court.

#22 - Dan - 07/14/2010 - 09:52

I received a letter in the mail stating I owe 1145 from this company. The letter was sent from my sheriff county from this company. I have no clue who this company is. I do not have any credit because I do not have any credit cards. I was reading the statements above and that is what has happened to me.

#23 - Dedra - 10/10/2010 - 11:51

Subpoena

Thanks everybody for sharing your stories. I'm a conservator for my 83 year old mother. North Star is trying to get money from her too. My mother is fluent in Spanish and diagnosed with Dementia. I will issue a subpoena for production of any and all documentation to with regard to this debt. If North Star does not respond to the Subpoena and produce documentation, North Star will not be entitled to recovery.

#24 - Kathryn - 12/01/2010 - 14:10

This company is garnishing my wages and when I call to find out why, I keep getting sent to other offices and getting the run around. They are telling me it is for a Wells Fargo credit card- NEVER HAD ONE.

#25 - horselady - 01/26/2011 - 17:20

i recently recvd a letter from this co, saying i owed cap one. but when i call cap one they can not give me a date on when the credit card was opened!! plus they have my maiden name and i have been married for 13 yrs!!! what to do???

#26 - brooke - 01/27/2011 - 11:13

mystery debt

This company has been hounding us for 7+ years, sending psuedo court papers etc. Now they've hired a Denver firm Machol &Johannes,LLC to bug us as well. Today someone from this law fim showed up at my door asking for my husband. They want him to sign something. They also send what 'look's' like court papers, motions for this, motions for that but there are no court stamps or signatures on the paperwork. My husband had a stroke last year and so I usually take care of most things like this, but I don't know where to turn, we are just scraping by, I can't afford a lawyer to keep these people away, or get rid of them. Is there anyone who can help????

#27 - Jan Scranton - 02/05/2011 - 12:10

In Need of Asistance!

My Grandmother Barbera Owens received a statement from capital one saying she owed 3,142.26 for purchase made on a credit card.Once we contacted them they sayed they were made in Iowa and the last time it was used was in June.I need help with this because I dont have the money to pay this nor do I know how this was done because we live in louisiana,and this was done in Iowa and we dont know anyone in Iowa.

#28 - Jerry Coates - 02/05/2011 - 17:13

Dismissal

June 09, 10 I was served court paperwork for lawsuit stating I owe 4000 to NSA for an old Wells Fargo Account. Their affadavit was full of lies and I filed a denial response also requesting Discovery documentation. Went back and forth about discovery with their lawyer but I did not back down. I filed a motion to compel discovery with the court and at the motion hearing 2/7/11 their representative requested the case be dismissed due to NSA not providing any supporting documentation to go forward to trial.

#29 - dkw - 02/08/2011 - 09:41

This company has attempted to garnish my tax return however they have never sent me a summons or complaint, never identified the original debtor that they claim I owe money to. They have violated my due process as a citizen and the rights I have to defend myself against their claims.

#30 - Angela - 02/24/2011 - 08:44

Everyone needs to file complaints against this company, their attorneys and the original debtors with the FTC at ftc.gov AND with your State Attorney General's office. These people violate the Fair Debt Collection Act over and over. They get away with it because we sit in silence and don't make a big enough stink to bring attention to them. If enough people file complaints, the federal and state governments will go after them and maybe an attorney unafraid of a good fight will file a class action lawsuit against them in each state also.

#31 - Angela - 02/25/2011 - 16:15

I received a garnishment against me for a little over $2000. It is paid off now but looking back at the papers, North Star listed an address I never lived at. Perhaps it belongs to my son with the same address. Anyway, I did nothing since I lost everything in 2006. I assumed it correct and was garnished. I would like to hire a Consumer Law Attorney and fight back. These guys make a living by going after the little guy who can't or won't defend themselves. Wolves!

#32 - Andrew - 03/07/2011 - 11:30

A judgment was placed on my credit report. I have no clue who they are or which creditor they are representing. How can I find this out? I need to know if this claim is legit. If it is, I will make some arrangement to pay it. The amount is $5,563. Reference #T010477A. Thanks.

#33 - Hugh Johnson - 03/25/2011 - 15:29

This company hired an attorney and my husband was taken to court to pay on a valid debt in 2009. We paid it within 2 weeks and received receipt from the attorney THEY HIRED. It was off of his credit report last March 2010 (I check every year). I checked this April and there is a $500 balance showing, reported "since Oct 2010"! I call their offices and never an answer, always "mailbox full". I have sent receipt copies to each credit reporting agency and am calling their attorney to discuss it today. No wonder his credit score isn't going up and we cant buy a house! (this was the last neg. between both of us!!)

#34 - chantel - 06/03/2011 - 08:28

This company to me to court for over $2000 dollars and I never even did business with them! Even when I did have a credit card I never had a balance past $250. This is bogus. I want all the money and headache back that I paid to this place!!!

#35 - miranda crandell - 08/03/2011 - 02:19

my husband got a cerfied letter stating hes has to go to the magastrats office from north star for debt 1500.00 what should i do thanks

#36 - michelle - 08/21/2011 - 09:34

This group has tried to collect an 11 year old debt from CapitalOne. Who has paperwork after this amount of time?! Besides they can't collect after 7 years and it cannot go on your credit bureau after 7 years. It cannot be restarted because it can only be reported by the original company. I have contacted my State Attorney General to help with this and they have. Sue this bunch for everything they have...that street goes both ways.

#37 - geolady - 08/22/2011 - 17:07

Theives

This is all very interesting , and i am so glad I found this site. The same thing is happening to me . I am also on diability , and Have never heard of North Star. This debt goes back to 2003 , They say I owe $1111.39 , on a Capital one credit card , At an address i never lived at , they told me i had to file a police report , .I plan to get a hold of my State Attorney General , and let them know that this is all a scam. If there is an honest Attorney out there please tell us all what else we can do...Thank you KIMI

Bad Address on Here and AKA

This company has also goes under the name of:

Zenith Acquisition Group
170 N Pointe Pkwy # 300
Amherst, NY,
14228-1884

Phone: 716-799-0511
Fax: 716-213-0680

The John Glenn address is no longer valid and hasn't been for a few years. I know this because I've recently filed a bankruptcy and retrieved this address via a impromptu skip search (hahaha, a skip search on a company that collects ... the irony of it all). This company is a bottom feeder, the worst of the debt collection kind. If you are being harassed by them, use the power of consumer protection and fire back.

#39 - Maidy - 10/08/2011 - 19:57

I received a notice from them today saying I owe 1374.40. I don't even have a credit card and no debt to my name. Any chance this is a scam that will go away if you don't respond? Or should i seek legal advice?

#40 - Luke - 10/09/2011 - 23:58

Extremely Pissed Off

I get phone calls from this company at least twice a day, waking me up at 8am. They've called my cell at work almost resulting in my firing. They're looking for Steve Hall. I am not Steve Hall, nor do I know who Steve Hall is. I tell them that they've got the wrong number and they keep calling!! I'm seriously considering paying this company a personal visit. They won't stop calling me.

#41 - Jon - 10/14/2011 - 08:43

I was HANDED a notice of judgement from this company TOTALLY out of the blue, they were putting a gaurentie on my paycheck....I am fighting this, I sent a Certified mail letter to their com. along with the local sheriff (whom was suppose to deliver the notice)DEMANDING more info..It has been, 40 days and heard NOTHING from either..The money has started to be taken out of my check...WHAT NOW

#42 - Richard Wallace Sr - 01/05/2012 - 11:10

Try this one they called me and I actually owed the bill I started paying on it and never received anything else from them. Now I owe one more payment and received another letter from another company wanting the same money they said they bought my account from these people. When I called north star they said they are not a debt collecting agency?????? Now Im going to be stuck paying this bill all over again. I have bank statements were they have takin the money is there anything I can do?

#43 - Julie - 01/23/2012 - 18:38

Well, they can't seem to find out what bill they're collecting for. Why would I pay a bill that I don't know where it came from? It's a judgment on my credit report, $789. They do a lot of harm to credit reports. Wish I had a way of getting it taken care of, whether paying it or otherwise, but I'm not paying it until the company can tell me what it is.

#44 - Donald Faulknor - 02/11/2012 - 07:52

Northstar capitol has for the second time just stolen money from me out of my bank account. They recieved court approval to garnish my paycheck. They were told it would not be until September before they would be able to garnish me because my check is already garnished 25%. Is there anything that I can do? How can it be legal for them to take every penny out of my bank account without my knowledge? How are they able to do this when I am already garnished to the full extent of the law? Does anyone have any answers for me? They would be greatly appreciated. I am so angry!

#45 - Suzanne - 02/16/2012 - 23:52

I received a letter of collection last week (Feb. 24, 2012), with a date of March 9, 2011 from Total Card, Inc., saying I owed a debt of $1837 for a credit card that I have not used in 10 years! When I asked about the account, I was told it was transferred to North Star. I would like to know what kind of charges have been billed to me on a card which hasn't even been in use!

#46 - Denise - 03/05/2012 - 10:06

New Law

New Federal Law, A Collection Company cannot call you or try to collect a debt unless that company is licensed in the state you live in. Call the local Sectary of States Office. The States now want taxes from North Star Collection LLC from doing buiness in the state without paying state taxe license fees. CHECK IT OUT!. No more interstate collection practices. They will now fall under the "Long arm Statue". Also when they call and they say we are recording this converstaion, tell them to hold on so you can start recording too, THEY WILL HANG UP.

#47 - Bill Woods - 03/13/2012 - 15:46

Scam

My story is just like everyone else's story: NEVER HEARD OF THEM and I have no debt to my name. File a dispute and wait about a month to see what happens. God bless.
