I had originally had an account go into collections in XXXX from XXXX XXXX located at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX. The account was placed in collections with HP SEARS in XXXX after I had some financial hardships from being XXXX and the loss of a job. After threatening phone calls and letters for me to pay the debt, I had made an agreement to pay to delete the debt with the collection agency HP SEARS located at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA XXXX. The debt was in the amount of {$1500.00}, that was paid in full on XX/XX/XXXX. HP SEARS never deleted the debt from my consumer report as it was agreed upon. This whole process originally violated my consumer rights, but I didn't completely know the process and how to handle it properly in XXXX. I know how to handle it in XXXX as XXXX XXXX, HP SEARS, The XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX have all violated my rights in various ways. Services were still rendered with XXXX XXXX after XX/XX/XXXX. My child 's braces were debanded on XX/XX/XXXX, leaving her balance at {$0.00}. A retainer was given ( both top and bottom ). The top was a tad bit too tight on her teeth but was told by the orthodontist, XXXX XXXX # XXXX, that it was normal and would loosen up over time. Well it never loosened up, it actually broke while my child was sleeping. I went back to XXXX XXXX in XXXX, XXXX to get her top retainer fixed. They took a molding of the top teeth and stated it would be 2-3 weeks to get the retainer back. XX/XX/XXXX the world shut down due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. XXXX XXXX didn't reopen their local XXXX XXXX office til early XX/XX/XXXX. I called twice a week from XX/XX/XXXX til XX/XX/XXXX to check the status of my daughter 's retainers, which they still hadn't come in. During this time, my child 's top teeth had started to spread apart, resurfacing her gap ( which was partially the reason for the braces to begin with ). They had XXXX come in for another set of moldings, as they still didnt have the previous 2 impressions that were somehow lost at the lab and still werent in. They said that they were going to do a rush order and we should have them back within two ( 2 ) weeks. They set the appointment for XX/XX/XXXX to come into the office to pick up the retainer. I had left messages with the office manager, XXXX, that went unanswered for months. Finally on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX had me bring my child in to have another set of moldings done, as the original lab lost hers. On that same date, the Orthodontist, XXXX XXXX # XXXX, agreed to put the top braces back on my child 's teeth to close the gap again, FREE OF CHARGE. It wasn't until a full year later, in XX/XX/XXXX, that I was complaining about still not having my daughter 's retainer that XXXX XXXX fraudulently tried to recharge me the same bill that was already sent to collections and paid in full. I had no balance prior to getting the top braces back on. I paid for the bottom retainer replacement, {$150.00} and was still given a receipt of XXXX balance after paying for the bottom retainer, as the top was free of charge. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX After my daughters appointment where the XXXX, XXXX XXXX # XXXX, was to tighten the top braces. I was informed that the retainers STILL hadnt come in yet, and they would need to take another impression of her top teeth and re-send those moldings to the lab. We are now into the 3rd set of moldings that have yet to come into the XXXX XXXX XXXX located at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX. I was overly ticked off at this point and demanded to speak with the office Manager XXXX XXXX ( they refused to give me her full last name, as she hadnt been in the office since before XX/XX/XXXX ). I had been leaving her voicemail messages on the office phone for months that went UNANSWERED! Once again I was told she wasnt in the office on that particular day and I was given a blank appointment card with XXXX name & email, and the office phone number on it to be able to call her back at a later date and time. I also noticed since I was being extremely vocal about how upset I was with my childs treatment at that office, they handed me a bill for her braces that was for {$1500.00} ( close to the amount I had already paid for the collections in XXXX that allowed my child to get her braces off and the original retainers ). I had a XXXX balance before my complaints, so how is it that now they pull a bill out of the air, in the same dollar amount that my collections balance was!!! I went to my car and before driving out of the parking lot I sent XXXX XXXX an email at the email address : XXXX, I immediately got back an error message stating this wasnt a valid email address. So I continued to call the office number ( XXXX ) XXXX and proceeded to leave another long voicemail in regards to being billed for services that should have been at no charge. Let me state that the bill also reflects a service done on XX/XX/XXXX with a description code of XXXX N/C- Other Orthodontic Services ( N/C= No Charge ). The bill also showed that the payments made by XXXX the insurance that I had for my child during the time of treatment, was refunded every month that they made a payment to the account. How do I owe a balance when XXXX XXXX is refunding payments made to the account by the insurance provider? It was not making any sense to me. XX/XX/XXXX was the date the top braces were put back on my daughters top teeth due to her teeth spacing back out as we still waited for her retainers to be replaced. I did a repeat phone call to XXXX XXXX Corporate in regards to my bill, being over charged in some areas and payments refunded in other areas. I spoke to XXXX who connected me to XXXX who was in the collections department. XXXX explained to me how the process of collections works, once they sell the debt to the debt collector ( HP SEARS ) then the original bill is XXXX out. If the patient pays the debt collector for the debt owed, the patient stays with a XXXX balance. The contract is not restarted to reflect the previous balance that was owed by the patient. Seeing that my daughters bill was paid to the debt collector, HP SEARS in full, that I no longer owed the amount of {$1500.00} to XXXX XXXX. Once HP SEARS sent the report over to XXXX XXXX, I would be able to get my childs braces removed, because I would be at a XXXX balance to do so ( which was in fact what had happened as of XX/XX/XXXX ). No one could answer why the insurance payments were returned every month that XXXX made the payments on my child 's account. On XX/XX/XXXX I filed a grievance with XXXX XXXX corporate office at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Ca XXXX, over the phone at XXXX since I was getting no where with the local office. My call was shuffled back and forth between the collections department, I spoke with XXXX, who claimed I had a XXXX balance and didnt see where the local office had any bill amount due nor that they communicated any outstanding balance owed by the patient to the corporate office in XXXX XXXX California.Then XXXX connected me to the grievance department. I spoke with XXXX and thoroughly explained my issues with the local XXXX XXXX XXXX and how I also spoke to XXXX XXXX at HP SEARS, who also informed me that once the debt is paid in full, they release the information back to XXXX XXXX, who then can not re-charge me for a bill that has already been to collections and paid in full. I also asked for a printed copy of my original contract. I got a letter on XX/XX/XXXX that they received my grievance, and will be working on the issue. No copy of the original contract came with this letter as I requested. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX grievance response stating : All the key facts that I had stated in my original complaint. Also, once I received a copy of my original contract, I was charged late fees at a time my account was not late. Because was charged excessive late fees, I wanted to be reimbursed the fees originally paid to this account. The letter goes on to state dates that certain procedures were done to my daughter throughout her treatment with XXXX XXXX. The line that stated the initial fee of {$3900.00} was charged for the braces. My original contract states that the amount financed was {$3900.00}. Their response also stated that it was a total amount of payments of {$2400.00}, adjustments of {$43.00}, leaving a balance of {$1500.00}. Now if they had sold my balance debt of {$1500.00} to HP SEARS, then once again how do I still owe for a debt they originally sold? According to the grievence letter, the committee was unable to determine the source of miscommunication related to this issue and missed their regrets that their was a misunderstanding of communication, also that My child is responsible for the financial payments due to the account. The letter stated I can reach back out to the corporate office and report any new information in the future and they will " investigate '' during that time. I called on XX/XX/XXXX with more complaints to add to this grievance, which was never addressed by XXXX XXXX at all. I am still waiting on a response. XXXX XXXX has violated consumer laws by trying to double dip out of the same pot and really shows bad business practices. I never received my original contract in the mail from the grievance department, so while still waiting, at one of XXXX follow up appointments, I asked the woman working at the front desk for a copy of the original contract. Turns out the woman was actually the office Manager XXXX XXXX She had explained to me that she had been out of the office most of XXXX due to a personal leave. I explained how I had been leaving her a message XXXX near weekly with the issues I had with them in the office. She stated that she would go check with the orthodontist to see if he did in fact put back on the top braces in an act of good faith, No Charge. After about 30 minutes went by when she returned to the lobby and stated that what I had in fact told her about not being charged for the service was in fact true. XXXX XXXX had put the top braces back on in good faith at no charge to the account. XXXX stated she would update the account to reflect that it was a XXXX balance. I asked her for a copy of the updated account in writing so I would have proof and no longer need to stress off of this issue any longer. She said she would update the system, which takes 24 hours to update and that by the next visit, it would reflect a XXXX balance. Well, that was a lie. XXXX XXXX never corrected anything with my daughters account. XXXX XXXX and HP SEARS still had me in collections for an account that had already been paid in full. So now we fast forward to XX/XX/XXXX, my daughter, had her braces tightened every 6 weeks from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX returns to XXXX XXXX to get her top braces off. XXXX XXXX finally has both top and bottom retainers for my daughter to be able to go home with. I was told there was a fee for the bottom retainers that were lost during the year my daughter was waiting on her top replacement retainer. I paid with a credit card the {$150.00} fee for the bottom retainer. On the receipt, it states that the account is at a XXXX ( {$0.00} ) balance. If there was a balance of {$1500.00}, why was it not reflective on the receipt for payment for the bottom retainer? We left the dental office that day with her set of top and bottom retainers. On XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sent my account back to HP SEARS for collections for an inaccurate amount. HP SEARS reached out to me via phone in regards to this debt. I spoke to XXXX XXXX at ( XXXX ) XXXX, informing her that I needed to see the documents for this account, after explaining to her that I had the services at NO CHARGE, so how can they send me to collections if I never had a balance on the bill? XXXX informed me that a mailed copy could take up to 60 days to receive in the mail. That made absolutely NO SENSE why that could take so long. So I asked if it was possible to get it emailed to me at my email address : XXXX. She stated that it could also take up to 60 days to complete. On XX/XX/XXXX I got an email from XXXX XXXX ( HP SEARS ) of a letter that was mailed to me but addressed to the wrong address. The letter originally was mailed to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, Ca XXXX. So that was HP SEARS 1st mistake, mailing it to the wrong street address. The 2nd mistake was the attachment ( proof ) for the email was password protected. Meaning I couldn't access the email. I reached back out to XXXX and asked for the password. She emailed back stating it was the last 4 of my social security number. That never worked. So I was never able to see the proof sent over from XXXX XXXX. I had to wait for the physical paperwork to come in the mail to the XXXX XXXX address, which could take up to ANOTHER 60 DAYS!! While waiting on the documents to arrive via USPS, on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX ( HP SEARS ) sent me a letter stating they were canceling the debt and will remove it from all 3 credit reports. The deletion was never done. They not only left the account on my reports, they sold it to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. So now this medical debt has been sold TWICE to both HP SEARS as well as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$590.00}. The XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX never contacted me in regards to this medical debt to verify if it was my account or not, no contact by mail or by phone. I had seen on XXXX XXXX that this account was added to my consumer report as of XX/XX/XXXX. That also violates my consumer rights. XXXX XXXX never offered me any type of financial assistance either time to be able to pay down the debt before it reached the point of collections. The collection balance is inaccurate, as it was reported to my 3 different consumer reports in different amounts : {$590.00}, {$1100.00}, {$970.00}, {$1500.00}. What was the actual amount, as I never saw an actual bill other than the one for {$1500.00}, which reflected the no charge for the service of putting the top braces back on. Here are the consumer rights that were violated various ways by all companies listed above : According to 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 602 ( a ) states : I have the right to privacy According to 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 602 ( a ) section 2 states : a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written permission. According to 15 U.S.C. 1681 s-2 ( a ) ( i ) states : A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that information is inaccurate. According to 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) states : A notification that, if the debt is settled or paid by the consumer or an insurance company before the end of the period described under paragraph ( 1 ) ( A ), the debt may not be reported to a consumer reporting agency. According to 15 U.S.C. 1681 ( a ) states : communicate with an insurance company to determine coverage for the debt; or ( B ) apply for financial assistance.

I am forced to file a complaint against XXXX XXXX XXXX and the HP Sears Company whom they hired to attempt to collect a fraudulent debt, and for there non communication after I sent them a detailed report and breakdown of there incorrect charges they are attempting to collect from me. On XX/XX/XXXX I rented an apartment located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, ca XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX, a local property management company. Upon taking possession of the property, I move in inspection was performed on XX/XX/XXXX and was confirmed receipt by virtue of a received by XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. This move in inspection is the basis of my defense and complaint. I am attaching it to this correspondence. In this move in inspection I noted extensively the damages on the property and frankly the overwhelming amount of things wrong, broken, dirty, scratched, take up almost 10 pages of notes wherein I detail all the issues that were identified upon moving in. NONE of these issues were addressed throughout the year I rented from them. I wanted to move out many times but understood I was under a least and was unable to incur the costs of breaking the lease. Once my lease was coming up for Renewal, I advised XXXX that I would not be renewing and that I would be vacating the property on XX/XX/XXXX. I received a written notice from XXXX with a list of purported charges that was frankly absurd. After communicating with them about the itemization and why I disagree with it, they revised it slightly, but still insisted on charging me for items that were already damaged, broken, dirty, etc - and began to make unsubstantiated allegations of pets being kept at the apartment and event alleged that other adults not on the lease resided in the property, false statements to attempt to justify there chargers. I advised them that my Deposit of {$600.00} was more than enough to cover any reasonable expenses associated with my move out, and that I actually expected some of that money back. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a notification from HP Sears, a 3rd party debt collection agency attempting to collect a debt on behalf of XXXX XXXX. I again, explained the situation thoroughly to the representative and even took the time to send him several pages of documentation to defend myself from these bogus charges, and advised him I wanted this account canceled as I had more than enough evidence to substantiate my claim. As of that date I have continued to try to resolve this amiably with HP Sears company but they never responded to my requests or presented any compelling evidence or reasons why I would owe this money, and maintain a derogatory credit remark on my credit report that has significantly impacted my credit score and is now hurting my ability to obtain favorable financing and thus costing me tens of thousands of dollars in damages. For the record, I am going to breakdown the charges against me. {$190.00} For 6 days of rent ( XXXX ) {$410.00} For Paint and Wall Repair ( Somehow Prorated against me ) {$310.00} for carpet replacement ( Also Prorated against me ) {$130.00} -New Keys, AC Filters , Smoke Alarms , Shades ( Not responsible for smoke alarms or AC Filters and the broken blinds were listed in the move in statement as broken ) - They are also including a charge here for " checking '' plumbing which is not my charge to pay, among the other items listed in this breakdown that were either listed in the move in statement or are not tenant responsibility per California Law. {$120.00} - Screen Door Replacement + Labor ( Noted in my Move in Statement that it was torn ) {$86.00} Drip Pans/Bowls Replacement So As you can see, they are charging me for {$1200.00} of which I only agree with {$300.00}. {$190.00} for the six days of rent, the re-keying of the doors ( {$25.00} worth of charges, and {$75.00} that I would deem reasonable to cover up any nail holes ) - Therefore, since they have my deposit of {$600.00}, less the {$300.00} in charges I accept, I am owed {$300.00} plus any interest that has been accumulated.

I have disputed with the consumer reporting agencies that this account : HP SEARS should be removed from my report. This is a medical account that has been reported on my consumer report since XXXX. I have disputed both online and via XXXX certified mail as this account has been reported with inaccurate information on all three ( 3 ) of my consumer reports. HP SEARS sent a letter stating that the account # XXXX, has been canceled by the client, XXXX XXXX, and that HP SEARS will be DELETED from all consumer reports within 30 days. That deletion never happened. I have not received any other documentation from HP SEARS in regards to this deletion. I have called and got the run around as to why this account wasn't deleted. On XX/XX/XXXX I did an online dispute with XXXX at XXXX stating the account : HP Sears should be removed from my report, and the website wasn't allowing me to upload any documents in regards to this matter, as I had a letter from HP SEARS stating they were to remove this account from my consumer report. Nothing was done with this account on my consumer report as my dispute was closed. On XX/XX/XXXX I did an online dispute with XXXX at XXXX to have the account : HP SEARS removed from my consumer report. The dispute was closed with no change to the report.

HP Sears showed up on my credit report saying I had unpaid debt, my credit score was reduced by over 40 points and I now have derogatory remarks. This was on XX/XX/XXXX. I freaked out because my credit score is important to me, so I paid the {$440.00} to HP Sears. I then realized that there's no way I could owe {$440.00}. I checked with my health insurance company ( XXXX XXXX of California ) and this charge, which was for the XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, was actually covered by my insurance. The insurance company was a bit late in authorizing the coverage, but it did go through. I have the explanation of benefits to prove it. All I owe is {$25.00}, and I never received a bill for the {$25.00}, but I would absolutely pay it if they sent me the bill. I tried to get in touch with XXXX XXXX XXXX and have had no luck. I was on the phone repeatedly with HP Sears. I sent them my explanation of benefits and they tried to accuse me of lying. I called to get them to admit they received my email with my proof. They admitted it. They said they'd issue me a refund. A month goes by and I noticed on Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX that my credit wasn't resolved. I even filed a dispute with XXXX, but they didn't take my side in the dispute even though I have evidence and contacted all the companies involved. So I called HP Sears yet again. I saw my credit card history and they NEVER issued me the refund that they promised, and they obviously never resolved the mistake they made that messed up my credit. I told them I wanted their agreement in writing, and I still have yet to receive that. I was able to get my {$440.00} that I was never supposed to pay in the first place back by contacting my credit card company. But HP Sears was supposed to be honest and issue the refund because I never owed the money, this was all due to their mistake, and they told me they had issued the refund. They've been scamming me and lying to me. I've been making phone calls again all night ( it's Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX ) and I can't get through to anyone. I have the proof. All I ever owed XXXX XXXX XXXX is {$25.00}, and they never sent me a bill so I can't pay it but I will pay it immediately if they would just send me the bill. I never owed {$440.00}. So my credit has been ruined because of this mistake and I have the proof that shows they messed up but no one is helping me fix it. I just want my credit score returned to normal. I don't know what else to do. The amounts aren't even consistent. I had to pay {$460.00}, and they attacked my credit for {$460.00}. The explanation of benefits said the original amount was {$440.00}, but that was before it went through insurance so I never owed anything anywhere near those amounts of money.

On XX/XX/XXXXa collections account for XXXX XXXX showed up on my credit and I have been there but my insurance covered the work I had done XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and they did XXXXXXXX XXXX but they were already paid for by my ex I was there when she paid for them so I know it was paid for then they started calling telling me I owed XXXX dollars and I told them it must be another patient with the same name cause my account is current there is not balance to pay. they had kept calling I told them to stop then it showed up on my credit dropping my score XXXX that day. I just bought my XXXX car in XX/XX/XXXX.I had a good score I never used credit before so I had none now not only is it showing on my report but they keep adding XXXX or XXXX $ a week to the balance which is now at XXXX dollars they say I owe I have asked for documentation proving it is in fact my debt and was denied I have disputed it on my credit report and got denied. Even if it was mine XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX do not cost even close to XXXX dollars and with the new bill I seen that removes medical debt from ur credit report if it's under XXXX this shouldn't have been put on my credit especially cause I never paid the collection company a dime nor did I agree to and then from what I understand the debt was sold and that's when it showed up and then started going up every week. I don't know what to do I don't want to contact them directly as i understand it could just hurt me more in the end and this balance is continuing to go up and this was over 5 years ago as it is that I had the work done which is what leads me to believe it's not my debt just someone either using my name because my sister sold my social security number and I tried to file a report on her for it but the police department wouldn't take it and I was young when I found out and have had to fight a number of things the person she sold it to has used my name for, like a phone bill and other utilities I never turned on and had to fight over a year on each of them to have removed from my name. I am more then willing to press charges on my sister for selling my identity though I just don't know who to call to do so and this might be another one of those things that happened because of her. She knew I had been to XXXX XXXX to have my teeth pulled though and the office that this bill was made at, I've never been to so its not mine I will not pay it I shouldn't have to. I need help solving this problem so it doesn't keep harming my credit. it's now kept me from getting back into school and refinancing my car loan and now getting approved for an apartment. I'm about to be homeless because of this causing my credit to drop so drastically.

Contacted by collection agency H.P Sears about a debt I supposedly owed to a former property management agency. XXXX property management. In the amount of {$4300.00}. That was XXXX XXXX, 2015. It was the first time I ever heard about it. I was never contacted by XXXX property management or anyone else about this supposed debt until that day. So at first I thought it was a scam because he could not tell me why I owed so much. He just wanted me to pay it. Then went on to use threats of legal action from there legal department. I said I would not pay anything until I knew what I was paying for. Then he said it was for rent in the month of XXXX 2015 which is XXXX dollars but he said back rent was over XXXX dollars. I said I moved XXXX XXXX, 2015. How could I owe XXXX dollars? They kept my deposit. He said there was no deposit. I said Ok let 's move on what is the other XXXX dollars for? He said I do n't know but I will call you back in XXXX days with a itemized list I said OK do that. At this point I really though it was a scam but he calls back the next day and says he has the itemized list. I asked what was on it, he said about XXXX was for back rent XXXX for broken widows. There was no broken windows. I believe XXXX for screens and another XXXX for carpet cleaning and XXXX for labor but he could n't tell me what was fixed. I started to dispute charges and he said it better I do n't fight it. The best thing for me to do is is accept it and make an offer to them for XXXX dollars. I told him I thought this is a scam I never heard of this debt it 's been XXXX months the last time I spoke to anyone from the property management company all they said is that they needed the other set of keys. He said ok. I hung up and thought nothing else of it until I was checking my credit report and saw that XXXX was sent to XXXX credit reporting agencies. Like I said I never received a letter a phone call nothing. I do n't know how long the home was empty after I moved out. We had a brake in while I lived there and put in a alarm system. Someone could have broken in after I left. That does n't mean I 'm responsible for the damages and it 's unfair to try to make me pay for it. There were a few things wrong with the house so a representative form the property management company came by a few times and noted how well we kept up the house. Me and my roommate are both XXXX we were hardly even at home. If there was that much damage why not contact me right away so we could deal with it then not three months later. Because there was no damages that 's why.

An unknown debt to an unknown company popped up on my credit report on XX/XX/2020. I called the number at about XXXX PST and a live person answered mumbled a company name that did not sound like the company reported on my credit report and immediately put me on hold before I could respond. I rechecked the number on my credit report and called ( same number ) again. A live person answered again but more clearly stated the company and quickly state they had another person ahead of me and put me on hold before I could respond. The person got on the phone asks for an account number, I search the collection flag on my XXXX credit report and find none, they then ask for my name, which I provided hesitantly because again, the transaction is unknown to me and something feels off about the company. They put me on hold to look me up and returns asking for my date of birth, again I am super uncomfortable but provide it. They note some details of a transaction still unknown to me. I say as such and repeat it more than once stating I need written correspondence. The phone agent asks " are you trying to evade my questions. '' This makes me even more nervous about this call. They note they have obviously legitimate since they have reported to credit agencies. I note that I just sat through and looked through 6 months of mail and I have NOTHING from this company. I thought I might have missed something because we have had to XXXX related health emergencies on top of everything else and I have not been good about physical mail. The calling agent becomes agitated accuses me of interrupting them, not allowing them to speak and evading their questions, and puts me on hold. Returns and continues the conversation and when I restate I need physical correspondence because I am afraid this may be fraudulent. The agent asks for my mailing address and I freeze, I ask them to pull this from my credit report because I don't feel comfortable giving an unknown company my physical address. They again become vocally agitated and asks for me to provide. I tell them no. They accuse me of not allowing them to speak and said something inaudible before saying they will be transferring me. The interaction was very strange. Felt a bit like entrapment or gaslighting and I got off the phone and my hands were shaking. It was a very dehumanizing experience. As a XXXX woman who has worked in corporate finance her entire professional career I was taken aback and deeply concerned. I still don't know that this interaction was not fraud.

I financed some expensive dental procedures through XXXX XXXX. The contract I signed had no late fee and no interest component. Due to personal circumstances, around {$7300.00} of the original {$23000.00} debt remains payable. The debt now resides with a debt collector who calls periodically -- the calls come through on personal lines, and do not appear to be coming from a business or agency. When I answer, they force me to identify myself and state they are with the company ( HP Sears. ) I then assert that I will not discuss anything until they provide me with statements itemizing the fees and charges and how a {$7300.00} bill now stands at nearly {$10000.00}. It is my understanding that they must provide these itemized charges, as well as make statements available to me for me to review, which they have so far refused to do. Furthermore, I have attempted to initiate a dispute with all three major credit reporting bureaus, only to be stymied there because the bureaus always find in their favor. I know for a fact there is no interest or late fees because about a year into paying the bills -- and I was paying {$500.00} a month -- Western Dental changed their systems TO charge interest and late fees and tried to get me to sign a new agreement for a " lower '' amount and I refused. Furthermore to that point, when the system change went into effect, my due date shifted, and for a few months it took me calling every month to have them remove the " late fee '' they weren't entitled to charge because ( a ) there was no mechanism for them to do that, and ( b ) I wasn't actually late due to the original agreement I had signed. This has been a mess, and nobody will help me. I'm just now getting back on my feet and I really resent that they've made this needlessly difficult. I have/had over {$100000.00} in debt, and EVERYONE who was willing to work with me during the rough times got paid. It's only been a relative few who have behaved like sharks that haven't gotten what was owed, but I absolutely REFUSE to pay ANYTHING on this account until we can get the situation squared away.

I recently noticed that I had a derogatory mark on my credit and had no idea why. If you look at my history, it 's pretty much perfect and my credit score is very high, with the exception of this derogatory mark bringing it down. After research, I see that I have a bill owed to a company called HP Sears, which I 've never heard of. They have never contacted me, then have never talked to me, and as far as I have been aware, I did n't owe them any money at all. However, I do believe I know why they are coming up in my report : A few years ago, I went into a walk-in clinic named XXXX XXXX XXXX with some XXXX XXXX and when I walked in, they assured me that they accepted my insurance and that a consultation would only cost me my co-pay. 7 months later, they sent me a multi-hundred dollar bill claiming that my insurance did n't cover the consultation and the medicine that was administered. This is after they told me that it did. If I had known that XXXX XXXXXXXX was n't covered by my insurance, I obviously would have left and found a place that was covered by my insurance. When I spoke with XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX on the phone about this he was hostile, and called me a liar - saying that his staff never told me I had coverage. This is not true. I maintained that I did n't agree that I should be charged for the visit, and he was so unprofessional that I hung up, and never heard from him again. There was never another letter, phone call, email, from him or any collection agency at all. So, I assumed he had realized that they had made a mistake and removed the bill from my account. But it looks like maybe not, because now, years later after researching my credit reports I see that there is a collection agency that now has this bill, and on top of it all they have *never* contacted me. I have n't done anything to deserve a derogatory mark on my credit and I want it to be removed.

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXThis place stated that I owe {$1500.00} for braces that were not supposed to be placed in my mouth. If anything I should have sued them for XXXX. This dental company quickly threw some XXXX to get a cut of my XXXX benefits, knowing that my XXXX strongly advise me to wait until I got all my XXXX taken out. When I went for my monthly visit I was refused dental treatment due to non-payment. I left the office upset and rejected. I had to walk around for months with XXXX that became painful and disfigured my mouth. Months later I get a bill for {$1500.00} stating I needed to pay in full. I actually tried to work out a deal and even thought of giving them another chance to redeem themselves, but instead they said they would have to charge me the full amount for XXXX, which was close to {$4000.00} after I paid the {$1500.00} that I supposedly owed. They even wanted to charge me for taking the XXXX off, due to their wrong doing. After hearing this I knew this was not the place for me, nor did I trust the practice. A year later I went to a different XXXX office and they helped fix my teeth. We started over and took the XXXX that were put on my teeth by XXXX XXXX. I have talked to other consumers and they agreed that XXXX XXXX is running a very bad business. I did n't report this sooner due to not wanting additional stress. I want people to hear this story, because I am sure I am not the only XXXX that has experienced such poor treatment through this facility. A few years later I check my credit report and not only did they sell my account to a collection company, but they changed the date of service, so the bill would look recent. I am shocked and appalled by this entire thing. Not sure what to do or who I should contact. This has ruined my credit and affected me physically and emotionally.

A former contractor informed us that a check we sent them was never received. We placed a stop payment on the check and sent the contractor a new check. The previous check that was claimed as never being received was taken to XXXX XXXX XXXX and this business cashed the check without checking with us ( the company ) or with the bank to find out that this check was cancelled and a stop payment was placed on this check. XXXX XXXX XXXX contacted us and informed us that the check was returned to them and they were unable to deposit it due to the Stop Payment. We informed them that they should have contacted us to confirm the check or they should have contacted the bank. They asked if we are going to pay the check amount of {$420.00} plus {$25.00} return fee for a total of {$450.00}. We informed them that we wont since it is not something we owe them. They sent us to collections because of this. On XX/XX/ 2019 a letter was sent from HP Sears who is a collections company. I received the letter on XX/XX/ 2019 and contacted them on the same day. There was a phone number on the letter with an extension. When I asked to be transferred to that extension, I was told that I can't be transferred and I need to just let her handle it. I gave her my account number and told her of the situation. She told me that I need a police report. I told her that there was no crime that occurred to me. She told me that's tough and she will mark my account down as " refusal to pay ''. This will in return hurt my credit. After the call, I went down to my local police station to get a police report and I was told that I will not be able to get one as I don't have any information and no crime was committed to me. The officer said that the check cashing place would need to obtain a police report and not me.

HP Sears is reporting a medical collection to all the bureaus. I went to XXXX XXXX. I have insurance. I have XXXX. I went to XXXX XXXX for only covered services. Services that are included in the XXXX XXXX XXXX 's scope of benefits are not chargeable to the XXXX XXXX beneficiary yet I have a bill. I have asked and asked for a reason why there is a balance but HP Sears is only interested in money. They threatened harm to my credit if I didn't pay them. I wanted time to find out what this was about so a payment plan was arranged in exchange for not reporting this on my credit. They put it on my credit despite my requests for validation of the debt. I spoke to your company before and informed them I am in dispute with XXXX XXXX and that they needed to validate this debt but it appears they have refused so I am asking for your help. I requested that they provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you because I have 100 % covered insurance. Tell me : What the money I owe is for ; I asked them to provide a detailed list of any and all services or goods purchased and a line by line itemization of charges ; Explain and show me how they calculated what I owe ; Provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what you say I owe ; Provide a verification or copy of any judgment if applicable ; They are not supposed to report on any bureau until they have provided this information but they did. I am considering taking this to civil court. I believe this might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. I now demand they send me a deletion letter today until such time as this is resolved. I have my phone records to prove I have spoken to you and made this same demand verbally. This would be construed as knowingly violating the law.

The account is under HP Sears who is the collection agency but the original creditor is XXXX XXXX. I disputed this debt twice with XXXX only for them to just update that it was verified but not providing me any other information. I reached out directly on XX/XX/30 to XXXX XXXX to try to obtain a copy of the original agreement and itemized bill so I could see what what the charges are, if my insurance covered and what late fees they charged and what I may be responsible for. XXXX XXXX was recently involved in a class action settlement ( will attach email sent to me ) that they overcharged patients late fees. I wanted to take a look at the statement because I know there will need to be an adjustment to what I was charged. While on the phone with the representative at XXXX XXXX, he was very rude and said he could not provide me any information and I would need to talk to HP Sears and before I could say anything he immediately ended the call. I was transferred to HP Sears where I spoke with a representative, XXXX, who said he would try to locate the itemized bill to send to me but if XXXX XXXX wouldn't provide it how would he? My biggest issue is I was never notified of this debt properly. The amount being report is different from what HP Sears is saying I owe. He gave me information to log in to see what they are reporting. Again, the original creditor, XXXX XXXX, would not even provide me with the copies of the bill with a breakdown of services and contract to properly validate this debt and I was a direct patient of theirs. I was never provided notice of this collection account which is directly violation of my FCRA rights.

On XX/XX/XXXX, HP Sears on behalf of XXXX XXXX incorrectly reported a " collection '' against me, regarding services not performed by XXXX XXXX ( see letters attached ). I filed an FTC complaint against XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, and just updated said complaint to include this information. On XX/XX/XXXX, after initially being contacted by HP Sears on behalf of XXXX I spoke with XXXX XXXX, advised him of the circumstances, and I was told to forward the FTC report and documentation, which I did, to " XXXX '' ; I never had a reply, so resent the email on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ( attached ). When I called again, I was told that I did not need to do anything further. Today, after receiving information of the reported collection, I spoke with a representative who advised me to, once again, forward documentation to " XXXX ''. I will forward the updated FTC report, the original FTC report # XXXX, along with this report to both emails listed below. The numerous previous emails remain unanswered. I have requested that they immediately remove the incorrect collection report of XX/XX/XXXX, for {$1000.00}, since services were not performed and I retained a new XXXX to begin XXXX XXXX to my son after 6 months of XXXX and no treatment. I have attached pertinent documentation and have much more if needed, specifically the numerous unanswered emails to XXXX XXXX. Thank you for your assistance.

Company previously responded to this issue via complaint id # XXXX but has still failed to take action based on the response provided. Since receiving the response that the information would be received from my credit files I pulled an updated version of my credit report today, XXXX/XXXX/17, and the account is now showing as account information disputed instead of being deleted from my credit reports. HP Sears at this point has not only failed to provide validation per 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA that this account belongs to me but they are also now setting false pretenses by claiming that information will be removed and they still take no action to remedy the situation. This action could possibly constitute fraud under both federal and state laws. Due to that fact, if the negative reporting continues on any of my credit reports by HP Sears my next step will be to review what legal actions can be taken in regards to this direct Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. I have attached files that show the previous response received from the company in regards to this negative account. I have also attached the updated credit report I pulled today that does n't reflect the account being deleted from the report it now shows the same negative account information with a comment added stating that the account is disputed.

Just used XXXX to get my credit bureau report. Had a debt from XXXX showing up as unpaid and with a collection agency. I contacted the collection agency who provided me with the information to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX, ( XXXX ) XXXX or ( XXXX ) XXXX, XXXXXXXXXXXX. I contacted XXXX and they said it was for an urgent care visit in XXXX for my son and since he is on my health insurance I was the guarantor of the debt. I have lived in XXXX for 11yrs and have not lived in XXXX since XXXX. I divorced my ex-wife in XXXX and our son XXXX lives with her in XXXX. XXXX said they mailed the bill to her, but when she called them they had a wrong address on file. We have both asked them to have this removed from my credit bureau when we pay the bill ( which is not a problem at all to do ) and they are refusing. The problem is NO ONE was ever notified of this debt, my ex-wife or myself and yet they are refusing to fix my credit bureau when I was not party to the debt or even took him to their urgent care facility. I feel as though I have been victimized and have a derogatory mark on my credit bureau with a date of removal of XXXX when I was never given the opportunity to pay the debt. Please help me as I am working to secure a loan to buy a house which is why I pulled the credit report to begin with.

I had went to the dentist about 3 years ago in XXXX for a check up they offered to do a deep cleaning service on my teeth and told me if approved I can start in a few weeks they took a {$50.00} payment from me and 2 days later I called and told them to cancel the cleaning because I didnt feel it was needed a year later on my credit report it shows that I was charged {$1200.00} for the treatment and I kept getting emails and phone calls from debt collectors which I tried talking to and they ignored me and told me I have to still pay them regardless of the situation when I told them dozens of times I havent received a cleaning I found a credit repair to dispute it off of my credit which has dropped over XXXX points from my credit and a year later it pops back up in XXXX in XXXX and I explained to them again I do not owe you guys for a treatment I never received and as they said to me as well I still have to pay them and that my credit will continue to drop for 7 years till I pay them and that they were willing to Negotiate how much I need to pay them up front and I kept refusing to pay for a treatment I never did and as one guy stated it doesnt matter if you call them and try to negotiate with them once its reported to us you have to pay this debt. Ive been fighting to take this off for almost 2 years now

Over a couple months ago I sent HP SEARS a Validation of debt letter to validate a collection that they have listed on my credit report under the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT. HP SEARS RESPONDED by sending me Itemized list of alleged charges they claim I owe and not what I ask for to Validate the debt. HP SEARS did not provide me with some of the following, I ask please provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what they claimed I owed, explain to me how you calculated what they say I owe. They did provide me with any paper to show that they are even licensed to collect in my state. So I also notice that HP SEARS was still reporting a collection on my credit with out giving me a proper validation which is considered a collection activity which puts them in violation of the FCPDA. I sent this company a follow up letter to explain to them that I do not agree with what they sent me. It was later deleted from my credit from all three credit bureaus for maybe three weeks. H.P SEARS has placed it back on credit with out any letter or proper validation of the debt! I kept all copy 's of the letters that they sent that I need to show they did not follow the FTC, or the FDCPA guide lines of what constitutes proper debt validation.

I started receiving bills sometime in XXXX or XXXX from XXXX XXXX from out of no where. I know I do n't owe them anything because I just paid off my XXXX contract and I had n't gone to see the XXXX in over a year and every time I went in to see them I had to sign a contract for services and pay before they started any sort of treatment on me. I had a XXXX balance on my account. I contacted the office talked to XXXX who was going to look into it for me because she showed a XXXX balance on my account on XXXX and on XXXX. Did n't hear anything back. I still kept receiving bills. I contacted the office left messages for the manager to call me back, never received any calls. I called the XXXX number left messages to send me a detailed explanation of what I was being billed for, date of service, copy of contract I signed on this date of service, and what my insurance paid for. I just kept receiving invoices requesting money and they added on late fees. I sent the company a letter requesting everything I asked for on my voice message and instead was sent to collection. At this point I 'm really upset and I do n't know what to do. I 'm still receiving bills for the late fees from XXXX but they already sent the bill with the late fees included to collection?? Is this even legal?

We have received numerous calls from hp sears ( caller id ) and have not picked up the phone. No messages were left. When I did answer this morning, XX/XX/2018, the person on the line demanded that I 'verify ' my name, phone number, address and date of birth. I told him my name and phone number, since he had that, and refused the other information. I told him we have no debts and were under no obligation to provide personal information to a stranger. He would not provide me the address for hd sears ( which appears to be a collection agency in XXXX, CA ). I finally asked for his home number address and birth information, and he hung up. When I called XXXX XXXX XXXX, the woman on the line demanded the same ( verification ) on the phone. When I told her I was under no obligation to provide information to her and that I had often warned consumers against this as an employee of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, she threatened to 'send me a letter '. After I replied something to the effect of 'So, send it. ' she hung up. From comments I have read on various websites, hp sears is an abusive debt collector.

I entered into an agreement to pay {$30.00} each month until the balance was paid in full. After some time ( a year or XXXX maybe ) the company refused to acknowledge this agreement and reported it each month as " Failure to Pay '' even though I made my payment every month, often more than the agreed amount. It took 4 years to pay it but I paid every dime + interest that i owed per the agreement I entered into despite the fact that they failed to honor their end of our agreement. They are still reporting it as Failure to Pay on my credit report. Attached is a record of every payment made and when it CLEARED my bank as well as the interest paid each month ( final payment was not recorded but was paid in XXXX or XXXX 2013 ). I also have statements from the company if you need them showing my payment amount and the due date.The statements stopped coming I assume when the person I made the agreement with left the company 's employment. I do n't have immediate access to them but will locate them in our storage unit and have them available should you require them.

I let the XXXX XXXX XXXX know that we will be leaving on XXXX XXXX, 2014. We let them know, that my brother is going to give them the key for the house and they said, it will not be a problem. My brother had asked him to go with him to to check and inspect the house with him but refuse to do it with my brother. The HP Sears Agency is collecting money from us stating we owe {$1000.00}.

Collection account showed up on my credit unbeknownst to me. It was a XXXX XXXX account originally. The day it popped up I called and spoke with a supervisor and he told me if I paid it today then he would delete it. I asked him to validate the debt by sending me something showing the missed payments because I was on automatic debit with the company. He said he couldnt provide that and I would need to dispute but he discouraged me from disputing. I told him I would reach out to them directly to validate and that was to no avail. So the very next day I called to speak to same supervisor and paid settlement of 70 % of the debt and he then told me he wouldnt honor my deletion. This is bad business. He outright lied. He said he would delete as a 1 time courtesy since I had no knowledge of the debt still being owed and he lied about that. This cost me quit a bit of point while in the middle of escrow. I had no choice but to pay before I could even validate because of time constraints on buying a home and they still didnt remove it from my credit.

I filed a complaint with the CFPB on XX/XX/2017 regarding the company HP Sears reporting inaccurate information to the 3 major credit bureaus. The complaint number is XXXX. The company responded the following on XX/XX/2017 : Our records indicate that substantiation of the debt was mailed to you XX/XX/2017. On XX/XX/2017 our client close your account with our office do to non payment of the debt. We sent all three credit bureaus instruction to delete this matter from your credit history on XX/XX/2017. We have verified with XXXX that this is not on your credit history any longer. If you have ran your credit report and this item still remains please contact our office for further assistance with the removal. The reporting has since returned back to my credit file with the credit bureaus. I am requesting that all references to this account be deleted and completely removed from my credit report and a copy of such deletion { to any/all of the 3 major credit reporting bureaus : XXXX, XXXX and XXXX } request shall be sent to me immediately.

She asked if this was XXXX. I stated yes. She asked me my date of birth. I told her I was not going to give my date of birth over the phone until I knew what this was about. She got angry and told me she had my name, my address, my date of birth and my social but couldn't tell me why she was calling until I gave her my date of birth. I said no unless she identified the purpose of the call. She hung up on me. I cross referenced the number and it is HP Sears from XXXX. It is a collection company. I have never received a single bit of correspondence from HP Sears and have no idea why they are calling. I have had my ID stolen and my passport. I am not just going to just give my DOB to anybody over the phone for no reason other than they want to be rude.

I told them anything they have for me needs to be delivered in writing and told them to not call me and only send me my debt in writing.

She told me that they had, and she was calling me to follow up. I told her that I specifically told her company to never call me. She hung up on me without assuring me they wouldn't call, so I had to call back again to speak with another young lady and tell her to stop calling me and deliver what I need in writing.

This collection agency, HP Sears, has listed a collection account on my credit file. I have never done business with HP Sears. I do n't have a signed contract nor any other type of contract with HP Sears. I have the right to demand to see a signed contract between myself and this company.

Also as of XX/XX/2017, based on the Nevada government website for financial institutions ( fid.nv.gov ), HP Sears does not currently have a valid license in the state of Nevada to collect on debts. I am requesting that this matter is investigated and the account is deleted from my credit files immediately or provide me with physical proof of a signed contract between me and HP Sears. I also request to receive physical proof that HP Sears is licensed to collect on debts in Nevada.

This was an attempt to collect a debt for services that were never rendered. I was sitting in a dentist chair, had already been given anesthesia, and was asked to sign forms which I later found contained plans for work to be performed at future dates. I paid for the worked performed on the day I was there but was very unhappy with it so I never returned. When I began to receive bills for the anticipated work which was never performed I refused to pay. It would be like getting a bill from an auto mechanic for work he thinks he needs to do. The debt was turned over to collections so I paid it to avoid further damage to my credit. My credit report reflects the debt was satisfied but disputed, but remains on the report just the same.

HP Sears has not followed the correct procedures for validating a debt. I believe but can not verify that they are attempting to collect for an alleged dentist bill that was supposed to be paid by my insurance. The dentist office may have improperly billed my insurance. The dentist office told me they were working on correcting the account and then ironically HP Sears shows up on my credit. I contacted them and they would not validate that it is the dentist bill. I have requested a detailed accounting of the bill but they will not give it to me. Since they refuse to validate the debt they can not report it until I can see what it is for. IF IT IS for the dentist my insurance was supposed to be billed.

XXXX XXXX was paid in full years ago. My insurance covered most of the amount and I paid the rest. I have cancelled checks to prove it. Last year they sold the amount I had already paid to a collection agency. I disputed it and it was removed from the credit reports. Now, today I am notified that they have sold the same amount to another Collection agency. My credit score dropped over XXXX points in one day. This affects my interest rates. Do I need an attorney? It can take months to resolve this and I will be paying higher interest until it is solved.

I joined the military in XX/XX/2015, at that time I had to have my braces removed early due to my military orders.

This account is originally from denali FCU And has been charged off by them. A current company HP Sears has attempted to increase the debt over the last few months. They have not contacted me and continue to Increase the amount. The account has somehow for some reason been sold to collections after denali has already written the debt off.

I have been working directly with the company that this debt originated from. Also when I spoke with the original debt they informed me that this company has no right to contact me on behalf of them because I do not owe the collection agency I owe them directly. Now they are reporting to my credit reports and I am not happy.
