What most people don't know about Servis One, Inc.:
Servis One, Inc. appears in the New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) records with active collection-agency license No. 2116041-DCWP and an address of record in Irving, TX. New York City requires a DCWP debt-collection-agency license for any agency that collects from consumers in the five boroughs, regardless of where the agency itself sits, so the licence is verifiable independently of anything a collector tells you on the phone.

Why Is Servis One, Inc. on My Credit Report?
Servis One, Inc. typically collects mortgage servicing balances, consumer accounts. A collection like this usually lands on your report because:
- ✅ An original account (a mortgage servicing balances, for example) went unpaid and was charged off.
- ✅ The account was placed with Servis One, Inc. to collect on behalf of the original creditor.
- ✅ Servis One, Inc. furnished the account to one or more of the three credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion).
Important: a collection account on its own does not prove you owe the debt or that the amount is correct. That's where your rights come in.
Your Rights When Servis One, Inc. Contacts You
Federal law — the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) — gives you powerful tools. Here is the playbook we use at Crowned Credit.
1. Debt Validation (FDCPA §809)
Within 30 days of first contact, send Servis One, Inc. a written debt-validation letter. They must prove the debt is yours, the amount is correct, and they have the legal right to collect. If they can't, they must stop collecting and it should come off your report.
2. Dispute With the Bureaus (FCRA §611)
You can dispute the Servis One, Inc. tradeline directly with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. The bureaus have 30 days to investigate. If the account can't be verified, the law requires it be deleted or corrected.
3. Cease-and-Desist
You can demand in writing that Servis One, Inc. stop contacting you. They can still report and sue, but they must stop calls and letters — useful for stopping harassment while you build your case.
4. Pay-for-Delete (in writing only)
If the debt is valid and yours, you may negotiate to pay in exchange for deletion of the tradeline. Never pay on a verbal promise — get the pay-for-delete agreement in writing first.
5. Statute of Limitations
Every state has a time limit on how long a collector can sue you for a debt. If the debt is "time-barred," Servis One, Inc. can still ask for payment but generally cannot win a lawsuit — and making a payment can dangerously restart the clock.
6. Protection From Harassment
The FDCPA bars Servis One, Inc. from calling at unreasonable hours, threatening you, or lying. Every violation is potential leverage — and may entitle you to damages.
