  This facility (out of **********) is harassing my husband and now myself because he chose to not receive treatment at this time from them. We have both blocked numbers and they keep calling and being rude and forceful. We have both told them to stop calling. We do not owe them money nor did he even go to their facility. This is strictly harassment and bullying on their end.

  Thank you for reaching out. We're sorry you've had a poor experience with us. Upon the initial review of our records, we've identified some misundestandings in communication. Since some services were received the complainant was being contacted by our collections department to obtain payment for initial patient responsibility which was addressed on the initial call with We Level Up's intake team. We've assured that our ***************** will no longer contact the complainant which is a standard process, however our collections team will have to reach out to the patient until the patient responsibility is satisfied. We will aim to do so via mail to accommodate your requests. Please advise if there is an error in our findings.

  I apologize for the miscommunication... it appears that the prior provided information was regarding a different patient with similar identifying information.

  I was held against my will.. I had to walk 6 miles away as they refused to let me have my phone or personal belongings. I had no way to retrieve phone numbers to call my family the entire time they held me prisoner. I injured myself leaving. I want all my personal belongings immediately from this horrible group of insurance thieves.

  Customer Answer

  Date: 04/23/2025

  Because I was denied for 3 days the return of my wallet, credit cards, cell phone with stored phone numbers, I had to walk and use another business phone and call the only number I could remember, a friend in *******. They sent an **** to ********** to take me to family, which cost me $125. I called and recorded 3 phone calls trying to arrange picking up medications and personal belongings. Nobody would return my calls.. I contacted the *************************************. After driving 2 hours from families home in *********, it took 3.5 hours of waiting for them to get my personal belongings. I want reimbursement of $250 for my **** away and the payment I had to make for transportation to get my personal belongings. 

  

  Business Response

  Date: 05/05/2025

  Upon the review of the documentation, it appears that Mr. ***** has already been provided his belongings according to our records. It appears that at the time, he has eloped without his belongings upon denial of the *** procedure acknowledgement which explained the expectations, process and delays in different aspects of it to help the patient make a decision towards staying and completing treatment. Nothing in the chart was identified to have been out of compliance, however Mr. ***** did voice multiple concerns relating to supplemental concerns.

  I am rejecting this response because: I had been told by initial therapist that after detox I could discuss options, the therapist (****) quit for another job. I was just folded into residential with zero therapy sessions after the initial visit! You called my ******************************************************************************************************************************** I could. It was your unorginization and complete disarray that prompted me to ask the same questions and be avoided for 5 days. I injured myself walking away with zero ways of contacting my family or to pay for anything to get to safety! 
  It cost my $200 to get back the next day, facing the same unorganized staff, who nobody could give me an answer on my belongings, that caused the sheriffs **** to be called and 5 hours or delay!

  The fact that you take zero responsibility for the ball being dropped, and permanently NEVER trusting a rehab with my health again sickens me!

  I want an apology letter and the funds that it cost me reimbursed,
  
  Sincerely,
  
  ******* *****

  

  Business Response

  Date: 05/29/2025

  Thank you for sharing further details. Upon review of the chart, it is noted that since you refused to speak to any staff or follow the *** process nor signed the *** form which includes the process for promptly returning belongings, it constitutes an elopement, choosing to leave your belongings behind. The chart further identifies that you have received and signed for your belongings the following day upon returning to the facility for it. Additionally it doesn't appear that any treatment services including therapy sessions are out of compliance with the regulatory requirements as documented. Furthermore, there is authorization to reach out to approved emergency contacts for any financial support of outstanding balances, if any. Though it saddens us that you feel you had a poor experience, we are unable to issue any reimbursements that you are alleging you've incurred.

  3/16/24-3/24/25 This is a very sketchy business. I was admitted to the facility with the promise of detox from *******. The withdrawals were horrible and i was left to suffer and hallucinate and felt like i would die. They were confident that they could detox me, but I learned that it is impossible to detox off ******* in a short time, It takes years!!. I was held hostage and all my phone calls were monitored. If I said anything to complain to my family, they punished me with no food or medication. The also punish you by making you wait and wait to get meds or see the doctor and withheld food. We paid in cash and they agreed to provide a bill to submit to insurance. They refuse to provide any CPT codes, Diagnosis codes, the *** or EIN. I have called at least 25 times over the course of 10 months. Not they have blocked my number and I cannot get through unless I use an alternate phone number. The nurses are mean and cruel. This is a money making scheme targeting vulnerable people. I have searched and all the insurance that they claim to accept do not have an *** for them. They may be under some shell company. It's just to make money and they do not care. They also lied about being able to contact their family. The only reason they let me out was because I didn't use insurance. If I had, they would have held me against my will. I still have nightmares about this place

  Thank you for reaching out on this matter as we take all concerns and allegations very seriously. Upon internal review we have identified that the patient he received appropriate treatment in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. No adverse actions were taken, including withholding medication or food or any punishments, against the patient. There were no abnormal delays identified throughout the treatment of this patient. It appears that the initial requests fo the codes and provider information was not passed along to the right department, however we have since been in touch with the patient, provided the requested and are cooperating with additional requests.

  This company falsely advertised as a business serving my local area, collected personal information from my partner and contact information for both myself and my partner, and is now continually harassing both of us. We keep blocking their calls, and they keep calling from new phone numbers. We have already requested that they delete our information and stop calling, but they persist.

  They are lying. They have continued to call both phone numbers despite being told not to call again on at least three separate occasions. Every time we block a number, they switch to a different one. They claim to record all the calls, so they should know this.

  Most recent calls were on 1/6 and 1/8. Screenshots attached.

  Facility was understaffed and at times basic needs were not met. Intake team is dishonest when promising potential clients what would be provided such as a gourmet chef that would take care of special diets, no vegetarian food provided for days and meals arrived from off site location was cold and *****. Staff use intimidation tactics to attempt to persuade clients to stay if client attempt to leave such as statements such as all belongs would be held for 48hrs and if you leave you will end up on the street without access to phone or money in a bad area of town. Clients family was called and given false information such as above and client brought into room and ambushed with family waiting on speaker phone. Clients unable to make phone calls due to short staffing and 10min calls only allowed twice weekly on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, staff did not respect time differences and told client the time they can call and often unwilling to accommodate this. Staff often appear burnt out and passive aggressive with clients.

  

  Business Response

  Date: 10/11/2024

  Upon the receipt of various allegations from this client, we've conducted an internal investigation including auditing phone calls, reviewing the patient's chart, staffing schedules; and interviews of facility leadership to address the concerns.  It appears that based on our findings, though the patient may feel unsatisfactory, we have followed our policies and procedures in line with all applicable laws and regulations.  Please note that we are not at liberty to discuss PHI of other patients however all complaints are taken seriously by our compliance team and if anything is to be flagged it would be promptly addressed.

  We are sorry  that the client had a poor experience with us that different from expectations and also always look to continuously improve.

  When being told about the place *********************** completely LIEDit was the switch and bait. ***** told me the Tarmac FL location was a 10 bed facility for women. He told me I would absolutely have contact with my familyNOT! He failed to mention the strip search, and lets not forget the squat and cough upon arrival. Or the monitor thats placed on you so staff can track you.This place should be shut down ASAP! If I didnt know my purpose I know it now.I cant forget the incompetent Therapists ** ****** and ** ******* According to the their handbook a therapist would see the new client within ***** hours, NOT, I had to go look for my therapist, ** ******* Im giving much grace by using ** in front of her name, when I finally made contact with her she was annoyed and bothered. I attempted discharge the evening before I was told by ****** because it was the weekend and it couldnt be done but she would leave a note for *********** she did NOT do! We cant forget the no-show facilitators that did not up for group.The entire process was sickening. People In a vulnerable state come to the rescue expecting help, this place traumatizes clients in a huge way.

  

  Business Response

  Date: 09/03/2024

  Thank you for reaching out to us with, we've started an internal audit to review your allegations and upon initial findings we've had an opportunity to review your initial phone call and identified that the representative you were on the phone with advised that we are a women-led business with 10 bedrooms and an individualized therapist all of which is accurate and services that were provided were in compliance with the required treatment during the short 4-day stay with us.  Please note that we've identified that no funds were obtained nor due for services so there is nothing to refund.  The only spend that appears to be associated with this patient is the funds paid by the patient for the flight to come to our facility, which we are not inclined to refund as there are no misrepresentations on our part and we do not pay for patient travel.  Please note that the internal audit has not been concluded yet but we will provide an additional response if anything else is identified and is conflicting with the information provided.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  The Business absolutely, mislead me when the person on the phone stated that the business was a 10-bed facility for women.  The person never mentioned men and women facility. Just like he never mentioned the strip search or having to wear a monitor while at the facility.

  My short 4-day stay was definitely due to being misled initially, the entire process was traumatizing.  The business is obligated to be forthcoming in the in-take process and do away with the ambiguous verbiage when dealing with people in such a vulnerable state.

  I have been contacted by this company incessantly, by text several times a week, via email nearly every day. My wife contacted them and they confirmed I do not owe any money, as insurance covered my stay, yet I continue to receive mail saying I owe $8k. They are defrauding insurance companies and we requested no contact and yet they continue.

  

  Business Response

  Date: 09/03/2024

  Thank you for reaching out. We have commenced an internal audit to review your complaint and allegations and though the investigation has not been completed yet, we have found that there may be some miscommunication. It appears that the client was with us several times and only has an outstanding deductible/copay amount from the first visit only in the amount of $8,540.01.  The 2 subsequent stays should have no amount due associated with them as the maximum out of pocket would be met. The total amount that WLU is attempting to collect is the outstanding from the first visit. I'm not sure why the disputed amount shows to be $75K, but we are following our standard policies as well as staying within compliance of applicable laws and regulations to attempt to collect.

  We Level Up has been harassing me for over a year and a half. Calling me every month. I have asked for them to please stop and they dont listen. Anyone Ive spoken to is rude and doesnt care what you have to say. They laugh and talk down to you. If you read the reviews from any city they are in, it would tell you enough about how they run things. Its insane to me how they are still an open business. I just want them to please stop calling me what they did to me already in the facility was already traumatizing enough.

  Please note that we have fully refunded this complainant over a year ago and have not made any attempts to reach out or collect since then.  It is unclear as to the current allegations of continued contact attempts.

I wouldnt be making a complaint if that was the case. At this point I dont know what else to do but contact you guys because it wont stop. They dont take accountability and are lying.

  I spent 3 weeks at their facility and every day they told me it would be covered in network and I would only have to pay my in network deductible. Now that I'm out they're saying it's out of network and they're charging me $15,000 put of pocket. They are liars and thieves. Shut them down ASAP. They are liars. They will steal your money. The entire staff will lie to your face and say things are "in network" and then they will charge you out of pocket when you leave. This is the most unethical business I've ever worked with. Run far and run fast if you ever consider working with them.
