Resurgent Capital Services is a South Carolina-based debt servicer that manages collection accounts for debt buyers, most notably LVNV Funding, on charged-off credit card and consumer loan portfolios. If Resurgent is contacting you about an account it’s servicing for LVNV Funding or another buyer, demand proof of the debt in writing and ask Resurgent to confirm the chain of ownership back to the original creditor.

Has Resurgent Capital Services been the subject of regulatory action?

Yes. Maryland’s Commissioner of Financial Regulation had issued a cease-and-desist order against LVNV Funding and Resurgent in October 2011 after finding the companies violated federal and state debt collection laws. The dispute was resolved in a 2012 settlement in which LVNV and Resurgent agreed to pay $1 million to the state, dismiss 3,564 pending collection lawsuits in Maryland district courts worth roughly $7.7 million, and issue more than $3.8 million in account credits to over 6,200 Maryland consumers whose cases had already been settled or decided. Both companies denied wrongdoing as part of the agreement, and their collection licenses were reinstated once the terms were met. If Resurgent or LVNV has filed a lawsuit against you, see lawsuit filed / summons for your response options and deadlines.

Questions & Answers

Is Resurgent Capital Services a legitimate debt collector?

Resurgent Capital Services shows up in the CFPB consumer complaint database, which tracks real complaints filed against real companies — so it is a legitimate, registered entity, not a scam name. That doesn't mean every call claiming to be from them is real; scammers impersonate real collectors. Verify what they're collecting before paying anything — see what to do the first time a collector contacts you.
