CAB Collection Agency claims to have medical accounts in their files in my name. They also claim that they have sent me a total of XXXX statements to my current address and that the correspondence was received by me due to the fact that it was not returned to them labeled undeliverable. If CAB Collection Agency has previously sent me correspondence, I request that they re-send it to the same address that they sent the XXXX statements to. Furthermore, I am allowed under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ( HIPAA ) to protect my privacy and medical records from third parties. I did not give permission to any of my current or prior medical providers to release any of my medical information to a third party. I am aware that the HIPAA does allows the release of limited information about me, but anything more is to only be revealed with the patient 's authorization. Therefore, my request is twofold-validation of debt and HIPAA authorization. I request that CAB Collection Agency, Inc : * Please provide breakdown of fees including any collection costs and medical charges. * Provide a copy of my signature with the provider of service to release my medical information to you. * Cease any credit bureau reporting until the debt has been validated by me. I request that CAB Collection Agency forwards this information to the address that they previously sent correspondence to that was addressed to me as my formal debt validation request, which I am allowed under the FDCPA. Please note that withholding the information received from any medical provider in an attempt to be HIPAA compliant can be a violation of the FDCPA because they will be deceiving me after this written request. I request full documentation of what CAB Collection Agency received from the provider of service in connection with this alleged debt. Additionally, any reporting of this debt to the credit bureaus prior to allowing me to validate it is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which can allow me to seek damages from a collection agency. I will await their reply with above requested proof.

This letter is to file a serious complaint against, XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX XXXX, File No. XXXX Ref No. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Ca. XXXX, phone number XXXX. Back in XXXX XXXX, we received a call from XXXX XXXX demanding a payment for an unpaid invoice from merchandise shipped from XXXX to some country in XXXX, a company we are not aware of. When my husband asked for more details he added my husbands name to a case that he was not involved in. After looking into the documents we immediately called the XXXX Police Department and filed a case number XXXX. We emailed them the information and informed them is was a case of identity theft. Based on a statement from Detective XXXX, they were able to determine that the information was fraudulent. The documents that XXXX XXXX provided with the notary seal were determined to be fake. We were then contacted again on XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX XXXX, and when my husband informed him again, its an obvious case of identity theft, XXXX XXXX began using abusive and intimidating language, with threats of suing us and taking legal action against us. He was extremely unprofessional, and was telling my husband to ''Drop the attitude '', and " He couldn't care less about aggravating him ''. My husband then called back the company and asked to speak with somebody other than XXXX, the operator was instructed not to let him speak with anyone other than XXXX XXXX. Please look into this abuse of power and authority, and please let us know what can be done about this case. Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX File No. XXXX Ref No. XXXX

Cab Collection Agency placed a charge on my credit report after sending me one notice. I then called XXXX ( who forwarded the information to Cab prematurely ) making payment arrangements and making sure insurance information was correct. XXXX said they would take it out of collections and bill it properly. They did not contact the collection agency about the payments I was making and they did not bill the correct insurance provider which led to it being sent to collections in the first place. And when I brought this up to Cab they stated that they could only remove it from my credit report if XXXX tells them to or if I fully paid the account. Cab should have also done due diligence to ensure that the accounts they receive are only sent after the company has not had success with the patient. I was doing my part and they should n't have been so quick to send it to collections without verifying the debt, communications with the patient, etc. Cab Collection Agency also should have had the " please see the reverse side for an important consumer notice '' at the bottom instead the middle of the page to prevent the right to dispute information being overlooked.

I am writing you to discuss a disreputable collection agency that has submitted incorrect collections information to XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX about an account that I had at a dentist 's office. I have disputed the information with the credit bureaus multiple times, but I keep getting a form letter telling me the information has been verified. In an attempt to deal with the collection agency directly, I wrote them on XXXX XXXX 2015 explaining that I dispute the amount owed and requested information proving that I owed the debt and that I agreed to assume the debt. The collection agency only provided me with an inaccurate statement which did not include payments made. The statement did not include why benefits were not paid by my insurance. It did not include steps they took to settle this debt with my insurance company. Their incorrect entry on my credit report has caused multiple issues. I have been denied credit. I have also been given less favorable terms due to this collection account. I am writing you in hopes that you may help with this matter.

I did not apply for a loan with XXXX. There is an error on my credit report showing that I tried to obtain a loan from a car dealership and it was denied. I also had to remove 3 addresses on my credit report. I want this error to be deleted from my credit report. My credit score was lowered and I believe the incorrect information on my credit report caused my score to be lowered. I believe all three credit bureaus have information that is false and I would like the inquires about my applying for a car loan with XXXX to be removed from my file. I am concerned that the inquiry to XXXX was listed on my report in error. I never applied for any loans and I do not understand why this is listed on my credit report. It looks like this inquiry was added to my credit report in XX/XX/2019. I did not make any applications for a car loan with any company.

I had a collection show up on my credit report from CAB collection company. I never received any type of dunning letter or given my right to dispute the debt. I immediately disputed the collection with equifax and CAB verified it. I filed a complaint with the XXXX and told them my concern and asked for there help. CAB just kept saying that they had know knowledge of the debt and they couldnt find any record of it. I gave them the account number that is on my report, the original debtor and the amount of the debt. They kep saying they had no record and couldnt help me. How can they report a collection on my report and not have any record of it. If they cant show validity of the debt or cant find there records then they have to remove it. I attached a copy of the XXXX complaint so you can see where they admitted that they have no record of it

CAB Collections failed to investigate an alleged bill from XXXX and entered it on my credit report in XXXX as a new debt for collection. I contacted the collection agency to verify charges and the did not. Instead they sent it to the credit bureau two days after my call. I also contacted the medical center there were several charges that were entered not a part of my last visit to the doctor. There were unexplained charges with some charges that were duplicate on same day of visit. It appears I was being over charged by the medical billing dept and the collection agency never investigated my dispute. They demanded payment and listed it on the credit bureaus without due process.

Each time I provide proof of payment but they continue to call or send me letters. Credit Adjustment Bureau and XXXX XXXX. XXXX my insurance company paid the bill and provided proof. This company has proof that I paid but for some reason they have not communicated well to their collection arms. Their practices need to be reviewed.

A company I have never heard of named CAB Collection Agency is reporting several negative derogatory accounts to XXXX, and XXXX consumer reports. I have no knowledge of said accounts. I demand that this company deletes accounts from all XXXX major credit bureaus. If CAB Collection Agency can not provide me with original paperwork that bears my signature to verify that these accounts belong to me, then they are reporting unverified accounts to XXXX and XXXX because I have NEVER done any business with any company named CAB Collection Agency in my life.

CAB Collection continues to verify and report to the credit bureaus a debt that is a result of identity theft. The address where the utilities was set up is an address to which I never lived and I never authorized the transaction. I have a police report on file and have sent to all XXXX bureaus. The reporting of this account is not only inaccurate but it is causing me and my credit rating serious damage. I needed to let this go on record since CAB is n't willing to do the right thing.
