We had been paying on a debt through the Collection Center in XXXX, Wyoming. We had been having automatic withdrawels out of my husbands bank account XXXX a month to pay on this debt. In XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX my husband had to have surgery so the payment in XXXX was the last XXXX we had made. We did call and was working with an agent at the collection center named XXXX who was working with us and understood our situation and new that just as soon as my husband went back to work we would continue paying this debt. Today we discovered my husbands bank account was XXXX. We called the bank and they informed us that the collection agency had garnished not only the checking but also the savings account. Which is double the amount of what we owe the collection agency to satisfy the debt. We called the collection agency and they informed us that because we had n't made a payment since XXXX they had put the garnishment against us. We have recieved no current court documentation regarding any garnishments or intent to garnish and also informed us that the agent we were working with had quit last month so they just took it upon themselves to file the garnishment which they said they used a judgement served upon us back in XX/XX/XXXX. My husband and myself feel that this has to be illegal somehow. We do n't understand, firstly how they can garnish his accounts based on a judgement from 8 years ago let alone garnish us in this matter after we have been faithful in payment up until my husbands surgery, and not to mention the fact that the bank account is now in overdraft for XXXX the amount owed, which they are denying but the bank statement we have clearly shows a negative balance for XXXX the amount. Please help us

My name is XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, ND XXXX XXXX, I have received a notice of debt collection on a Court Filing Form with no Case Number from the Court from XXXX XXXX, Attorney at Law # XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ND XXXX XXXX ) on behalf of XXXX in XXXX ND. I responded to the first notice indicating that after review of the documents attached to the notice, that I was responsible for XXXX of the XXXX elements of debt. I requested that they send me proof that the other medical bills where in fact valid. Instead of responding to my request they continue to send me court documents filled out as if they have filed them with court, but there is no court number and no record at the court that they have filed. The latest document they sent shows a court ruling for the collection agency to receive payment, but yet again there is no court docket number. These tactic are deceptive and I need them to stop and have them respond lawfully,

I have had garnishments for my medical debt for approximately 3 years now. I did not know that collection center inc. was doing this until I went to try for a home loan. Apparently when my garnished amount gets to collection center inc., they apply {$1.00} to every bill we have with them. This seems very unethical because the amount I owe them never seems to decrease. I am not understanding why they do not apply the money to the lowest bill owed and move up from there so that some of the individual bills are paid off in full. The way that it is being paid now causes it to look like I pay nothing because the interest adds up more than what I have paid on each individual bill. This seems to make it look like I do not pay them at all. This issue is the only reason I was denied my home loan.

Collection Centers Inc. refuses to report correctly when payments are made and have made several attempts to collect on medical debts that don't belong to me or my husband.
I made arrangements for wage assignment for one that do belong to us and they have collected from every paycheck since XXXX but are not reporting to credit bureaus as paid under wage assignment its listed as 1 debt but on my credit report there are several. They need to report the correct balances. I have called several times asking if payments have been received and asked they report these payments to the credit bureaus.

I sent the company a validation of debt to prove that the alleged debt they say I owe belongs to me and they sent me back a couple of bills and I dont recall any services with this company and theyre reporting the debt on my consumer report by this company illegal action this a clear HIPAA violation and identity theft since I never gave the company permission to put anything on my consumer report

I have a medical debt on my credit report for a service i never received. I went to emergency room but was looked at and let go after 15 minutes and now i have a collection company selling it to a law firm saying that i am in default of the visit. Please assist in helping me to get them to stop attempting to collect a debt that is not owed as i never received any service.
