    The nature of the dispute is due to a company Ive settled a debt with over 10 years ago, the debt was removed from my credit and they still continue to apply the debt to my credit despite having had them removed on multiple occasions. I go through this every 2-3 years and I am tired of playing this game with them. Ive offered to settle it and they refuse to negotiate with me, they won't even offer payment plans either. Then they will cancel the inquiry once I dispute it, and proceed reapply it as a new collection new every few years and the amount is always different.

I have called this company and they cannot connect my phone number with any collections on file, yet they put a **** on my credit for $1400.00 and I have no idea what this is!!!! I see tons of complaints on this company and want this dealt with immediately. I want it off my credit report. Who can do this and then cant find a file to match the collection on me jeeeez! Please do something about this company. Its obviously a scam!

    I recently discovered a debt collection notice on my Experian account without any prior billing or notification. Upon contacting the collection agency, I was informed of an alleged debt for an ER visit on August 12, 2023. They provided details of a creditor named ******** **** SVCS *********** ** and directed me to their billing department. I was then forwarded to ************************** in ***********, where I was assured that I have no outstanding balances or debts for this visit or any other.On September 16, I contacted the collection agency along with my medical insurer. They advised me to send proof that I have no outstanding bills with the creditor. I sent the itemized bill from *********** for the August 12 visit to the collection company on both September 16 and September 20, but received no response. Additionally, my attorney sent them a letter on September 26, again without any reply.I believe this situation may be in violation of the No Surprises Act, which protects patients from unexpected medical bills and balance billing. I kindly request that this erroneous debt be removed from my credit report, as I have paid all my bills in full.

    Better Business Bureau:

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.

    The emergency room visit took place at ******************** in ***********. I provided the hospital with my updated address, and weve been in communication about any outstanding bills multiple times prior.
    Given these interactions, Im concerned about both **** and the hospitals efforts to notify me regarding the debt. The actions taken seem to conflict with the protections outlined in the No Surprises Act, enacted by the *************** in 2022. Additionally, this erroneous collection process has impacted my credit score, causing undue stress and discomfort.
    I reserve the right to pursue legal action against CMC to seek compensation for the damages caused by this mismanagement.


    Regards,

    ******* *******

    This company placed a random medical collection today, 10/13/2024. This does not belong to me. I have lived in ********** since 2017. It is illegal in the state of California to place medical debt on a credit report. I do not and have not lived or even visited the state of *******. I am demanding the immediate removal of this erroneous medical debt.

    I am writing to dispute the collection account opened by **********************. I have no record of this debt and have not previously been contacted by your agency regarding this account. Additionally, I am concerned that this collection account may involve information about my medical records. I did not authorize access to my medical records under *********************** Portability and Accountability Act), and it is a violation of my rights if this information has been accessed without my consent. Please provide verification of this debt and any related documentation. If you are unable to validate this debt or prove authorization to access my medical records, I request that you remove this account from my ********************** report and inform the credit bureaus to update my records accordingly. I would appreciate written confirmation of your receipt of this dispute and the outcome of your investigation. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, ****** ****

    2 collections were added to my husbands credit for the same amount of $1400.00 each. He has called multiple times to find out what these were for, and finally received an answer today. The first thing asked is, if his name was (BLANK) and if he social was (***-**-****), and proceeded to read off his whole social. She said she needed to verify his identity. He told her that she was being recorded and she hung up. He called back and asked for a supervisor, and was put on hold then hung up on. The will not tell us what these charges are. They are providing personal information before verifying identity. This is illegal.
