I requested an itemized statement for overdue OBGYN bills that had been sent to MediCredit inc on November 23rd. The lady I spoke with gave me a callback number if I had further questions. I did not called them directly on this occasion as I was forwarded to their office. After a week of waiting, I decided to call the number given to me to ask where the statement had been sent. The number sends you to a recording asking if you can hear them OK, and if you want to hear about a promotion. If the recording hears you say “no”, it hangs up on you and blocks your number, as it did to me. After another week of waiting, 3 itemized statements (all for the exact same 4 doctors bills) arrived with 3 different case numbers. There is a phone number on the statements “if you have any questions”. This is the exact same number I called a week earlier, same recording and everything. The number prevents you from speaking with anyone, and is only there to record you saying “yes”. And has now blocked two different phone numbers I have called them from because I didn’t want to hear about any promotions, but wanted to speak with someone about my debt.Business Response

I have made multiple attempts to resolve a debt with this company to remove from years ago. I have sent now 2 certified letters to them to resolve the debt situation on both 5/13/2022 and 10/18/2022 (Attached for review). They have not responded to any of my requests and I am looking for a resolution. They are not trying to help resolve the situation but continue to report a collection to my creditors.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:I actually found an additional certified mail receipt (Attached) in which I asked to resolve this with them. Actually a total of (3) communications now. I have made attempts to pay them and resolve. I feel that Medi Credit is holding me hostage and not permitting me to resolve negatively impacting information to my credit report. They are asking for more time which is unacceptable since they have had my requests since May, August, and then in October. I am requesting that they stop reporting this to all 3 of my creditors.

I am rejecting this response because:
There is still no response to resolution in either portal both BBB and CFPB. Complaints were submitted at exactly the same time.
I am now demanding that this be removed immediately. Medi Credit is blocking me from making major financial decision.

I received a medical collection bill from a COVID test for my daughter in 2021. I paid $50 towards my bill and tried to dispute/settle the remaining balance. I have written letters, called and left voicemails, and no one from Medicredit will return my call. I am looking to settle the balance for the 80% discount that they offered, but I want them to include the $50 that I already paid into that. They have terrible customer service and that is why this has been going on for a year and a half.Business Response

I don't even know how they have all our informations!!! I called the hospital facility about this payment and they said there $0 balance in my account and they send us a copy of the proof of payment...and even they confirmed that they never placed my account into debt collection because there is just no doubt to collect!!! So I want to tell them to delete this account information from their database and to STOP harrassing us with these calls and their mails...Just STOP.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:I don't understand what they said in their response!!!! I need more information to dessmiss this case.
I want to know WHERE DID THEY GET OUR PERSONAL INFORMATIONs ....and then to Stop contacting us about this payment for something that doesn't exist!!!
I contacted St ************** center about this issue and they said they never contacted this Medicredit company for anything...and I am attaching this document they send me today as a proof of the payment I did in June 2022 and stating the balance is $0 as of today. I have no debt to pay to anyone!!!!
So I think it's my right to know who sent our information to this company and why they didn't let us know before contacting them!!!!! If there is really any debt that I have to pay to someone at least I have the right to know who is this person or institution,and they shoud send me a bill...a correct and official bill at least.

I have contacted MediCredit Inc. 5 times as of October 3rd to resolve and dispute multiple debts that they have posted to the three credit bureaus on my behalf every month for 4 years. The debts they are attempting to collect are under a name and birth date that is not mine, therefore a debt that is not my legal responsibility to pay. They refuse to remove the debts or hault posting to my credit that the debts have not been paid. They also refused to speak with me because the debts they showed needing collection were not for me, yet continued to post to all three credit bureaus that they were. They proceeded to attempt to gain my current address, DOB and other personnel information to attempt to fix their mistake on the back end and put the debts that were not ever in my name, in my name moving forward, which I denied allowing. In conclusion, they stated having no record of ********* ****** having any debt or any account needing debt collection from their agency and to this day have refused to inform the credit bureaus of this discrepancy and make this right on my behalf. I am 25 years old, started my first company, and am unable to obtain a credit card whatsoever because of the false debts they have posted to Equifax, Transunion and Experian.Business Response
