Who Does First Collection Services Collect For?

First Collection Services is a debt collector reporting a collection account on your credit report.

In some cases this means they purchased the debt from the original creditor (i.e. a credit card or loan company). Usually this means they paid pennies on the dollar, sometimes 1/10th of the original cost, to buy this debt. In other cases they may not own the debt themselves, instead being paid to collect on behalf of another company.

They may attempt to communicate with you via mail or phone calls (demanding payment). Even worse, a collections account now appears on your credit report. This hurts your score (and chances) to get approved for a loan or other important financial event.
