      This company has contacted me repeatedly for the last couple of weeks. They will not leave a message and when I call them back, thats when I find out that they are a collection agency. I do not have any medical bills nor any other bills that have been turned over. Seems like if I owed something to this company, I'd receive a letter or something other than a call. I'm calling this bogus!

      This place calls me almost every day. I'm trying to work at home during the day, and their calls are annoying. They NEVER leave a message, like a legitimate business would do. They're supposedly a debt-collection agency, but a real one would leave a message. I've asked them numerous times to stop calling. They call from many different numbers (a typical tactic of scammers).

      My identity has been stolen and is being used in multiple platforms. I do not have a debt with ******** womens hospital as I pay these debts upfront. They have either falsified this claim and sold a false debt to this debt collector as a form of harassment against me, or they are offering evidence to identity theft. This debt is not mine. It is affecting my credit negatively and I expect recompense.

      To whom it may concern:

      Immediately after submitting my report, I contacted this company through their website. I informed them that I expect them to cooperate with both you and all law enforcement entities, including the **** to whom I also submitted a report.  This company did not contact me in return, (either by phone or email) and did not provide me with a copy of the internet letter I sent them.  I can submit another letter to them, but as the design of the website is flawed, I cannot even take a screenshot of the letter I send them.  Will you be contacting this company and moving forward with your authority to corroborate my honesty, or am I left hanging with evidence of stolen identity? 

      Thank you for your time. 

      Sincerely,

      I received a collection notice for a bill I technically should not owe under the no surprises act as well as per my health insurance carrier (BCBS AZ) due to the provider I saw at my visit already receiving payment for the service that I am somehow being billed for from a separate company. Regardless, I am exhausted with trying to sort this out over $147. I have spoke with THREE different representatives over the last two months requesting a copy of the bill so I can mail them a check to pay it in full. All three reps told me they put a note in to have a bill mailed out to me. The third rep offered to have an invoice emailed to me and I provided her my email address and asked to confirm. As of today, I have not received that email and I have not received a copy of the bill in the mail. I do not want this to end up on my credit file as I am doing what I can to pay it and they refuse to send me a bill. I know your calls are recorded, so please pull the call and help me get a copy of my bill please.

      Complaint: 21839839

      I am rejecting this response because: I FINALLY received the letter yesterday which said "I missed a promise to pay date" which was incredibly frustrating after the time spent just trying to get an invoice to send the payment.  I am not sure how I was expected to fulfill a "promise to pay date" without an invoice (which I was unable to get from *********************** prior to it being in the mail yesterday). I ended up paying it online today and paid the ridiculous $6.95 processing fee to be done with this.  I want confirmation that this will not be placed on my credit file and that you have record the payment was received per the attached payment confirmation.  

      Sincerely,

      ******** De La ****

      This is concerning medical bills I paid *********************** ************************ P.O. Box ******, Nashville, TN ***** ************** for two (2) out of four (4) of my medical accounts they purchased. On January 26, 2024, I paid $902,45 for the payoff of two of the accounts with the Reference #********.I had two (2) more medical accounts I continued to pay on each month. In April, 2024, I noticed on the statement before I called in to make the payment over the phone, the two (2) accounts I had previously paid in full in January 2024, were still listed on the April billing statement.When I contacted ***********************, they at first denied I had paid the two accounts and expected me to research and provide them with the information. I demanded to speak with a Supervisor and provided the information I had from the payoff to a *********************************** (Supervisor) on April 9, 2024. She did confirm with me that *********************** had not applied my January payments. I asked her to quickly take action in correcting their mistake since it was costing me additional money, as well as continuing to reflect poorly towards my credit rating which I have been struggling to repair by paying off past due medical bills. This is May 14, 2024, and *********************************** with ***********************, still has not applied the "payoff" payments I made to my two (2) accounts in January 2024, and refuses to speak with me .*********************** is still holding two (2) medical accounts (which they purchased) that I need to pay off. I want to pay these accounts off in full, as well, but I would like to get this current issue resolved first. I need your assistance in clearing this matter up and helping me correct their harassment towards me. I am working hard to clean up my poor credit from past health issues and medical expenses, a divorce and being unemployed due to my health issues. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.Thank you for your time and consideration.Sincerely,*****************************

We are still showing two (2) accounts open for the original creditor. The correct balances on these are account numbers ********* for $15.00 and ********* for $959.22. Should you have documentation showing different balances, you may send them to us at the address of Frost-Arnett Company P.O. Box198988 Nashville, TN ***** or you may call us at ************ during normal hours and an associate will be glad to assist you.

      Outstanding bill paid in full over the phone to Lincare using their automated system on 04/29/24. I have been CONSTANTLY harassed with phone calls from this debt collection agency every SINGLE day since then, at all hours of the day even though I already paid. My confirmation code as given by ******* when I paid the bill is I23ZR5B74D.I have not received a SINGLE piece of mail or any kind of correspondence from ***********************, NO LETTER, NO NOTICE, NO MAIL- nothing about owing a debt, only nonstop calls every. single. day. With these badgering, aggressive, INTIMIDATION tactics of constant calls, they have yet to leave me even a SINGLE voice message communicating with me or even attempting to explain what they want from me. Likely, because they cant- again, my outstanding balance was already paid 100% in FULL, and has been for a week and a half going on two weeks now. In addition, I will be permanently closing my account with ******* and stop doing all business with them- they are atrocious. As for ***********************, I will not hesitate to pursue legal action and reimbursement, with *********************** completely liable for CIVIL DAMAGES TO ME as this constitutes a flagrant violation of the ****** I have even blocked this caller numerous times to NO AVAIL. AGAIN, should this BLATANT HARASSMENT continue, I will pursue legal action and also report them to the ****************** Protection Bureau. This is a clear violation of my rights and the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) as mentioned, as well as my privacy and peace of mind- I am being ceaselessly harassed by this debt collection agency. STOP, remove me from your list, and do NOT contact me again.
