I tried to find the opporiate selection of the complaint ; however could not find XXXX which would apply to this particular situation. While employed for Portfolio Recovery Associates it was brought to my attention that they had purchased a portfolio which contained an account which was mine, but the statute of limitations was well expired. I can not recall the the orginal creditor ; however the debt was well over the 3 year statute of limitations in which I was a resident of, which is XXXX XXXX. I was informed by XXXX XXXX that I had to resolve the debt inorder to maintain employment with the company. The amount was around {$1500.00}. In order for me to maintain my employment I had to sign an agreement to allow PRA to deduct post tax, {$50.00} a pay period for one year to resolve the issue. It was in my employment agreement that any employee who was found to have a debt in a portfolio PRA owned that it must be resolved to maintain employment. It is my opinion that the debt should have been disvolved based on my state of residence and should have never made it into their system to begin with based on NC statutes of limitations. There was an extra payment removed from my check after the agreement had been met, which PRA subsequently refunded to me. Further more after resigning from PRA I recieved another letter informing they had purchased another portfolio with another debt in which the 3 year statute would apply. Other than the intial letter I have not recieved any further communication of the debt or its collection status, this was in XXXX of 2015. I can not recall the amount, but remeber that the debt was outside of the allowable time NC has put in place. I do not know if there are any other accounts in this status with them and would like to find out.
