State Collection Services ( Document 1 ) will be notified of this complaint by certified mail ( tracking # XXXX ). It is recommended that the collection of this debt be returned to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, in order for it to be sent to the FTC alongside the other complaint lodge with the FTC against the XXXX XXXX Hospital organization. It is also recommended that this be transferred, unless State Collection Services ( acting as a representative of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) would also like to be held accountable as an accessory in the unethical and illegal actions conducted by the XXXX XXXX medical staff/physicians/and representatives. First interaction with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( will be referred to as STA through the remainder of this letter ) was on XX/XX/XXXX, which I received a phone call from Representative XXXX XXXX confronting me with this debt. I had previously not received any physical mail stating any additional bill due and stated this to her ; in which she emailed it to me directly while we were on the phone ( Document 2 & 6 ). This also is roughly sixty days after my last hospital visit. While on the phone, I asked specific questions as to whom some of the doctors were ( such as XXXX, XXXX, etc ) and the response I received was they work at the hospital. I contacted the office on XX/XX/XXXX ; when I finally received a paper bill that matched the one I was emailed ; again questioning who the doctors on the bill were. I will acknowledge two of them ; one was my XXXX XXXX XXXX and the other a XXXX that I spoke to twice while I was in the hospital. Again I was given the generic response of they work at the hospital by the representative I spoke with. I inquired further, asking if these were doctors who were overseeing a floor I was on ( such as overnight, or mid-day ). The representative told me that there was always a doctor on shift, which would imply that there is a doctor available for consultation at any time. On XX/XX/XXXX I spoke with a doctor that morning ( after being admitted the afternoon of XX/XX/XXXX ) that stated I would be discharged that evening. When roughly XXXX came around and the nurses shift change occurred, I asked if I was being discharged. One nurse said I was being detained under directions of the consulting XXXX ( who I never saw, I spoke with his nurse practitioner due to him being in XXXX ). The same nurse also stated that she knew her personally, and would call and see why. Around two hours later, I asked the nurse what the status of my discharge was ; and was refused an answer. I asked to speak with a floor doctor and was denied. I got on the phone and spoke with the patient advocate center, and they sent a representative to my room. She came in with the same nurse who refused to send the floor doctor in for a consultation. We spoke, but she said openly that she could not help because she had no access to medical records. She stated she would bring the floor doctor to me to review my case. Roughly XXXX a charge nurse came in, and read the doctors orders from the computer. I questioned some of the statements, and there was no mention that the consulting XXXX gave directive for me to be detained. I asked the charge nurse what doctor wrote that order, and was denied that information. I asked to speak with the floor doctor, and she told me no one is going to come see you. I was given the option to leave, but would be against doctors orders. My reaction to her was no doctor has given me any orders or direction. She stated that I just read them to you. I told her a statement can not be questioned or cross-examined, that unless the doctor that wrote it or the floor doctor comes in to give it to me directly, then it is void. Again, she stated that the only way I was allowed to leave was against doctors orders. The next morning, I spoke with the XXXX nurse practitioner about the situation ( again he was in XXXX ). She stated that they were only consulting, and had no authority to detain me. So I caught the staff in a complete lie. A different doctor that the one I spoke with the previous morning came in to see me shortly after ; and I questioned why I was no discharged as the previous doctor had stated. I was given no answer other than I needed to be observed. The following day, I filed formal charges against the hospital staff with the hospital. I never received a follow-up as to the status of my complaint. It was obvious that the hospital staff lied to me as to why I was being detained. I also do not feel I should have to pay for the doctor who said I was going to be discharged, but never received a follow-up stating that I was not eligible. I was never given any directives as to my care status. I do not feel I should have to pay for any floor doctor who REFUSED to consult me, even after patient services were contacted ; nor do I feel I should have to pay for the doctor on XX/XX/XXXX when I should have been discharged the previous day as I was directed by the doctor in charge of my care the previous day. Since we have established the unethical concerns, lets document the illegal concerns. When speaking with the representative for XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX ; I asked a specific question. A statement that the representative made was I could not return to a XXXX XXXX physician until the bill was paid. I asked so you I can not see my primary care physician because I did not pay him {$3.00} that took you six months to provide me a bill for?. Her reply was no you are not allowed to see any XXXX XXXX XXXX because you have not paid this bill. This statement violated the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act, which states that I can not be discriminated against based on ability to pay. During my THREE hospitalizations in XX/XX/XXXX I have lost income. I have been struggling to pay other bills ( such as rent and utilities ) to provide myself standard living conditions. Also, with that statement she has excluded me from being able to seek emergency medical care ; as there are TWO XXXX urgent care facilities and ONE XXXX hospital under five miles from my residence. So in a medical emergency those are my only options to go to. I also take this as an IMMEDIATE threat to my health, as my primary care physician manages many of the minor medications in relation to my sever XXXX XXXX ( covered under the ADA ). I wrote XXXX to let them know I disputed the charges. XXXX received the letter XX/XX/XXXX and received a reply ( Document XXXX ). I did state to XXXX that I had intentions on turning them over to the FTC due to the same issues I have stated so far. The letter was hand written, and someone took the time to type the official statement, but refused to sign it. If someone would have given me a direct contact, instead of not putting their name on the statement, then maybe we could have worked it out before now. I do however want it to be known that I did turn the XXXX XXXX Hospital organization into the CFPB who then forwarded the complaint to the FTC for some of the same reasons as stated in Document 4 of this complaint. First off, I have a right to have my questions answered as to who or what I am being billed for by the person presenting the bill. As it is written, I am told to consult my explanation of benefits. At the point I was presented with the bill, I no longer had a contract with that insurance company nor had do I have access to the explanation of benefits which were presented ONLINE only and my account expired. So that is a written, documented refusal to answer my questions. Second, on page two of Document 4 where I was offered a soft apology for failure of delivery of XXXX statements. Document 5 is pictures taken at various points during a week time ; showing failure to properly deliver letters/magazines by the USPS. I am not accountable for failure of delivery by a third party in this issue ; nor am I responsible for actions by a fourth, fifth, or sixth party who has intercepted delivery, disposed of delivery, or returned delivery. These issues are the reason why the XXXX XXXX Hospital organization now has a complaint resting with the FTC. Failure to answer questions ; pushing responsibility to a third party for explanation of bills being presented by a first party organization ; and pushing blame of failure of delivery of invoices to me. Finally, Document 7 is a statement from the XXXX XXXX Hospital organization. The final line of the invoice states XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$650.00}. Since the hospital failed to provide a definition of this term, but the XXXX can not prove that one of the doctors on their statement was not part of this bill presented by XXXX XXXX Hospital. In which case, this would be a double bill and overpayment for doctor services.

This debt is for XXXX XXXX received by a dependent but this debt was not filed with insurance as required in the contract between the insurance company XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and the preferred provider ( XXXX ). I continuously call XXXX about medical billing issues even though we informed the providers many times our insurance information has changed. In XXXX, I had XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) health insurance. In XXXX, I switched to Government XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) managed by XXXX for billing purposes. In XXXX, I stayed with XXXX but XXXX took over the billing. With all of these changes came new billing addresses. My insurance member ID changed when I went from XXXX to XXXX but was the same when XXXX switched from XXXX to XXXX. I see how this could cause confusion in processing early in the calendar year but not months later. I cant count how many times I called XXXX to provide them with the correct information. Upon receiving a bill weeks ago stating the bill was going to collections, I called XXXX and told them there must be a mistake because I have insurance. Without looking into it, XXXX turned it over to collections. I responded to the collections company in writing. I explained I had insurance but XXXX must have never filed ( at least correctly ) a claim with XXXX. Today, I had other bills needing corrections by XXXX so I decided to tackle the XX/XX/XXXX bill again. First, I called about a XX/XX/XXXX bill. A XXXX customer service representative ( CSR ) told me it was in collections so I was transferred to the collection agency. The CSR I spoke to seemed compassionate as she took my insurance information to submit the claim correctly. Will it be? Who knows? I would like for the collection company to submit the claim for {$140.00} correctly before it becomes an issue like the bill I am about to discuss. Later the same day I called XXXX about the XX/XX/XXXX ( date of service ) bill. The XXXX CSR informed me my claim was filed by a doctor that did not join the network until after my claim was filed. I explained to her XXXX turned me over to collections. She told me she would call XXXX if I wanted and explain what needed to be done to correct the claim. She informed me XXXX was under contract and had to follow the submission rules for reimbursement. She told me I would not be responsible for their mistakes. She called XXXX while I was on the phone. Unbelievably we sat in the queue for XXXX to XXXX minutes as number one in the queue. Finally someone answered. After pulling up the account information, the XXXX CSR informed us she could not help but she would transfer us to the person handling our account ( code for collections ). After sitting on hold for XXXX to XXXX minutes more, a CSR in collections finally answered. We explained the situation. The CSR told us she could not fix that problem. She said only XXXX could fix that problem. We explained XXXX was the one that said we had to speak to them ( collections ). The CSR said we needed to call XXXX back and explain the situation so they would understand it was a problem only XXXX could fix. We told her we explained the situation to XXXX the same way we explained it to her. The XXXX apologized. After realizing we were getting nowhere, we hung up. I gathered some information from the XXXX CSR and told her I wouldnt put her through the torture of sitting on hold for a half hour again. I then called XXXX without her. This XXXX CSR told me the same thing - XXXX cant fix the situation because it was in collections. Round and round we go. I am writing this letter to document everything I tried to correct the situation and show that my dependent nor I are responsible for this bill. Here is the information I received from XXXX : Their customer service number is XXXX. The person from XXXX that tried to speak to XXXX today is XXXX. She said she is the only XXXX in Customer Service. My XXXX member ID number in XXXX was XXXX. XXXX stated that if the bill would have been submitted with XXXX XXXX, there would have been no issues. I may not completely understand how insurance works but I do know XXXX screwed this all up when they took over the practice. Heres what I know. We have been going to this family practice for years. It was a family practice run by a husband/wife doctor team. XXXX purchased the practice but the doctors continued to work there. Since the purchase, we found out our medical records have been lost and apparently our billing records have been compromised as well. We always paid our copay before the doctor would see us. After our doctor visit, they filed the insurance claim. These are things I can not control. I spoke on the phone to XXXX and XXXX Collections about this matter. We did not come to a satisfacory resolution.

After several years of not monitoring my credit reports, I finally requested a copy of my XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX credit reports in XX/XX/2019, where I first noted a collection account present from the State Collection Services/XXXX XXXX Hospital ( XXXX ). I didnt know that there was a bill, as I have never received any billing or notification from these companies saying that this amount was owed. I was shocked to see that they said I owed {$4700.00} on my credit reports and that it was in collections. On XX/XX/2019, I wrote the State Collection Services/XXXX, requesting them to validate this debt and sent the request via certified mail with return receipt. The State Collection Services/XXXX did not send a response, to my request, to validate the debt. Since I was never given a billing statement or any information to validate this debt, I wrote letters to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX requesting this collection to be removed from my credit reports, to no avail. The only change that I saw was made by the State Collection Services/XXXX, was ONLY to update the balance date and update the status date to the following month on my credit reports. Updating the dates was not enough as I needed to be able to validate this debt! My USPS tracking number XXXX indicates that the validate debt letter was delivered and accepted on : XX/XX/2019 at XXXX XXXX Delivered, Individual Picked Up at Postal Facility XXXX, WI XXXX As a consumer, I have the right to receive proper notification of debts to review before I pay any bill. I have not received ANY billing notification or validation of debt letter from the State Collection Services/XXXX and my rights have been impinged upon, as we all are protected by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Please have this collection removed from my XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX credit reports. The information in this letter is true and real and I appreciate any help in removing this collection from my credit reports. Thank you. I have tried to upload 4 Word documents into this report and CFPB 's system will not accept them. I have also tried to find a customer service phone number to report this problem and I can not find a phone number that gets me to a person. I am now going to copy and paste my request to validate the debt letter as follows : XX/XX/2019 STATE COLLECTION SERVICE XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, WI XXXX Re : XXXX XXXX Hospital To Whom It May Concern : I am writing this letter in response to our phone conversation on XX/XX/2019. In conformance to my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I am requesting you to provide me with a validation of the debt that we spoke of. Please note, this is not a refusal to pay, rather a statement that your claim is disputed and validation is demanded. ( 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ). I do hereby request that your office provide me with complete documentation to verify that I owe the said debt and have any legal obligation to pay you. Please provide me with the following : 1. Agreement with the creditor that authorizes you to collect on this alleged debt. 2. The agreement bearing my signature stating that I have agreed to assume the debt. 3. Valid copies of the debt agreement stating the amount of the debt, breakdown of the charges and interest charges. 4. Proof that the Statute of Limitations has not expired. 5. Complete payment history on this account along with an accounting of all additional charges being assessed. 6. Show me that you are licensed to collect in my state ; and Your license numbers and Registered Agent. If your office fails to reply to this debt validation letter within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all instances related to this account must be immediately deleted and completely removed from my credit file. Moreover, all future attempts to collect on the said debt must be ceased. Your non-compliance with my request will also be construed as an absolute waiver of all claims to enforce the debt against me and your implied agreement to compensate me for court costs and attorney fees if I am forced to bring this matter before a judge. Thank you for your help in this matter. Sincerely,

XXXX XXXX called me in XXXX XXXX XXXX and told me i was eligible for supplies for my XXXX XXXX every 6 months to include face mask hoses filters and humidifier. i checked with my insurance benefits department and the y said yes XXXX is correct these items are covered. Ordered items received items and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX paid for items and sent me a statement staing i owed {$0.00} for all items. A few months later XXXX sends me a statement for XXXX not sure of exact amount. I call there company and request an invoice to back up their statement. I never receive an invoice and no one ever calls me back. Month later I receive a statement from XXXX . I request an invoice i never get an invoice ... i call XXXX and tell them about XXXX statement which shows i owe {$0.00}. No one calls me back i do not receive any proof from them. Next month i get statement from XXXX . We do the same dance we get the same results. a year later i get a notice from a debt collector about overdue account. i call them explain situation ask them to provide me an invoice or itemized bill from XXXX they do not .I send them copy of statement never hear from them again. a year later i get a letter from a different collection agency. i call them ask them to provide an itemized bill from apria they do not provide. I send them XXXX explanation of Benefits statement and never hear from them. Last week i receive a notice from XXXX XXXX to check my credit report. i check and see a derogatory and inaccurate remark and my score has gone down from XXXX or so to XXXX . i call XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX State Collection Services i sp eak harshly with a woman going by the name XXXX .Asking her how the hecvk does she have the right to send any information about me to anyone without notifying me first. Im mad as XXXX and she informs me State Collection Services called me 9 times and never were able to contact me.I ak her why not leave a message on my voice mail if you really wanted to get in touch. She admitted that a real live person ... you know a breathing sentient person known as a human being had not done the actual calling. it was a robocall and robots do not leave messages. Asked her why they did not notify me by a letter addressed to me and she unequivocally told me XXXX SPECIFICALLY requ ested no letter be sent. Am i missing something here? Is this a business practice allowed in the USA? I informed her i would be making complaints and she said i could have XXXX fax them a statement to prove my side of the story. I requested XXXX do this and they said it was not their practice to do so as personal information could be revealed and they declined. They have provided me with a statement of Benefits for the date requested and i would be happy to fax this to you so as not to reveal any personal information to back up my side of the story Will be requesting written documentation from this State Collection Services when i finally do receive written notification from them .... as XXXX said i would a week ago when i initiated contact. .You know by actually calling them myself and waiting to speak in English to another live breathing thinking human being. XXXX also proudly stated State Collection Services was rated " A '' by BBB. Why would such a firm associate themselves with XXXX who has " F " rating with XXXX Disclosing in formation adversly affecting reputation of credit worthiness with knowledge or reason to know information is false is not a practice which should be employed by a reputable firm or one who tries to impress others as being reputable. XXXX has never provided me with an itemized accounting to prove their statement. Is this normal practice or a form of double billing and intimidation? If XXXX had provided me with an accounting and they were correct i would pay..as i have paid every other legitimate bill i have received the past twenty y ears. i have never bounced a check nor have i been late on any payment in any account in fifteen years or better.

This is a formal complaint against State Collection Services InXXXX for violations of the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act. I the consumer, XXXX XXXX first was called on my cell phone by State Collection Services attempting to collect a debt on XX/XX/XXXX then I received a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from State Collection Services Inc alleging to be a third party debt collector collecting a debt on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX medical collection ) Exhibit XXXX. I responded with a debt validation request of XX/XX/XXXX Exhibit XXXX as I was unfamiliar with this debt collector and had not given them any permission to contact me nor did any other alleged creditors. XXXX XXXX responded to the validation request by only sending me an alleged print out of detailed medical procedures and pricing from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for services provided to me on XX/XX/XXXX ( Exhibit XXXX ). XXXX XXXX Collections reported and is currently reporting this alleged debt on my consumer credit report greatly hampering my ability to acquire new credit. The FDCPA violations include : Violation of 15 USC 1692 b ( XXXX ) State Collections ( a third party debt collector ) contacting the consumer stating that I owe a debt. Violation of 15 USC 1692 b ( XXXX ) State Collections used an envelope or symbol in their communications indicating it was a debt collection business. Violation of 15 USC 1692 d by State Collections conduct in the matter has the natural consequence to harass, oppress, or abuse the consumer by reporting this alleged account on my consumer credit report. Violation of 15 USC 1692 XXXX by State Collections by participating in false, deceptive, or misleading representations by failing to provide by what legal authority they have to collect a debt from me the consumer. Violation of 15 USC 1692 e ( XXXX ) by State Collections by failing to validate the character and legal status of the alleged debt after being requested to do so. Violation of 15 USC 1692 e ( XXXX ) by State Collections by using unvalidated false representations or deceptive means to collect a debt by failing to validate how they have the legal authority to contact me, the consumer to attempt to collect an alleged debt. Violation of 15 USC 1692 g by State Collections failure to send the consumer a 30 day validation notice within 5 days of the initial communication by calling on my cell phone on XX/XX/XXXX then I sending a 30 day validation letter past the required 5 days on XX/XX/XXXX alleging to be a third party debt collector collecting a debt on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX medical collection ) Exhibit XXXX Violation of 15 USC 1692 g ( a ) ( XXXX ) by failing to state in the initial communications that the consumer had the right to dispute within 30 days. Violation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act because in paragraph numbered XXXX of the validation request it reads as follows : XXXX. An itemized statement from the alleged original creditor that a debt is owed by XXXX XXXX XXXX for an alleged business transaction to include ( XXXX ) the charge-off balance and itemized principal, interest, charges and fees ; ( XXXX ) itemized post charge-off interest, charges and fees; and ( XXXX ) a description of the debtors obligation to pay and the supporting legal documents required by your company. Although I, the consumer asked for an itemized statement that a debt is owed I did not ask for or grant the debt collector to permission to obtain detailed personal medical procedures. If the collector was unclear about that fact at the end of paragraph XXXX I stated they provide any supporting legal documents required by their company. Legal documentation would have been signed medical releases by me which I knew they did not have. They have failed to provide me not only signed medical releases but no authorization to collect a debt from me. The remedy I am requesting is that this account be removed from my consumer credit report immediately and that I be awarded {$50000.00} USC for the violations of the FDCPA and HIPAA

This complaint is in regards with : State Collection Service XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, WI XXXX I have never received any mail, letters, or written documents from this company before today 's phone call. I received a call from ( XXXX ) XXXX on XX/XX/2017 at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The caller started asking who I was and for personal information. This caught me off guard and I asked what the call was about before I would give out or confirm any personal information to an unknown party. My identity has been compromised with recent hacks and I frequently receive scam calls from outside the United States. Even the CFPB officially says " If the collection agency first contacts you by phone, insist that they contact you in writing. Do not give personal or financial information to the caller until you have confirmed it is a legitimate debt collector. '' The caller repeatedly refused to give any information when specifically asked, including only simply giving the name and contact information about the company. The caller claimed giving the name of the company would give away the nature of the call. It is not my fault if a company 's name is poorly chosen where giving just the name of the company could be illegal. I got very upset and agitated and the caller felt very harassing towards me because I refused to confirm or supply any personal information to someone who refuses to identify themselves while contacting me. I felt the behavior was harassing, intimidating, dishonorable, unethical, and unprofessional. I felt as if the caller was trying to beat me down until I gave into her demands and supplied my personal information. The call ended and I was very XXXX. I called the number back at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and got a what sounded like a general secretary. I tried asking her for information on the company as her caller ID had my phone number and she began many of the same tactics of the first company. I had to tell her even if I was not the person they were trying to reach if I SPECIFICALLY asked for the company name and address they were required to give it to me and she eventually gave me just the company name. When I asked for the address she literally told me, and I quote " You can XXXX it ''. I have never had any company treat me with such disrespect. The person who called me stayed polite in her tone despite being very harassing and intimidating, but this person was short, rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. She did eventually give the address of the company which I then did XXXX as she so rudely requested I do. I confirmed the company was real and since Utah is a one party consent state I am legally allowed to record my own phone calls. I installed a call recording app and called the company back to confirm the phone number and the information and ended up speaking to a supervisor. I called back at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The supervisor 's name was XXXX. In my discussion with XXXX I told him how upset the call made me and asked if that kind of behavior was standard procedure. He said on outbound calls that yes it was. He seemed to disagree on whether or not if I was the subject or a third party that the name and address of the company had to be disclosed when specifically asked. Also troubling is the fact the first initial incoming call was made by a robodialer to my cell phone. I am unaware of any debts I may have, especially where I would have given consent to call my wireless number. If I do not have a valid debt with this company or no paperwork I signed gave specific consent for calling my wireless number then that call possibly violated both the FDCPA and TCPA. My call history also shows a call from this same number on 1XX/XX/2017 ( time unknown ). I have never received any mail or written notifications from this company.

This complained is about : Their information is : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX And also involved : State Collection Services XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , WI XXXX The referenced XXXX account number is : XXXX This is the culmination of a two year battle with XXXX XXXX to get them to bill my health insurance for a XXXX machine that my doctor ordered in XXXX. They consistently failed to submit bills for the machine to my wife 's insurance company and instead marked our account as self pay and tried to collect from us. I spent hours on the phone over the course of XXXX as did my doctor 's assistant who tried to work with their XXXX representative. During XXXX XXXX sent bills to us without details of what we were being billed for and also used my bank card we had on file with them to charge our account for several hundred dollars on two separate occasions. Our bank, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, was able to reverse the unauthorized withdrawals and recover the money from XXXX. In early XXXX I decided I'd had enough of their incompetence and asked my doctor to order a XXXX machine from another provider and remove XXXX as our durable medical equipment supplier. I negotiated a payment with XXXX for on XX/XX/XXXX paid with my Mastercard for the amount of {$480.00}. I talked to their phone agent XXXX and asked specifically if this payment was all that I owed XXXX XXXX She verified that it was. I told her that I never wanted to hear from XXXX again. She said we wouldn't. This is the important part - I asked what to do with the XXXX machine that I'd gotten from XXXX. She said " It's yours. Do whatever you want with it. '' Fortunately I kept it and in XXXX of XXXX XXXX sent a threatening letter demanding that the machine be returned within 7 days of when their letter was mailed or we'd be charged {$400.00} for the machine. I returned it the day after I got the letter to their XXXX Colorado office and their representative gave me a receipt showing that I owned nothing further. I asked her specifically if I owed anything else and she said no. Last week I received a notification from XXXX that a debt collection company had opened a file on us. I immediately called the company and asked what was going on. The amount they gave me that XXXX was trying to collect was {$71.00}. I wrote up a format dispute and faxed it to them. A few days later I received a letter from them ( after I had asked them not to contact me again about this matter ). This time there were charges for the time between XXXX when I paid them off and when I turned the machine in totaling {$400.00}. XXXX had been charging me for rental on the machine after they were not longer our official provider and after they had told me I owned the machine and could do whatever I wanted with it. They lied to me and also have been charging me for supplies which I never received. I also did not receive any bills for the amounts shown on the State Collection Services statement. The first I heard of this whole debacle was from the Credit Bureau reports. I'm including all the documents I sent to XXXX XXXX and the collection agency 's letter. I notified State Collection Services and XXXX that I did not want to be contacted again about this and that I do not owe them anything. What they're doing is nothing less than fraud. I would request that XXXX drop this collection attempt and work to repair the damage they've done to our credit. I also filed a complaint with the XXXX ID number XXXX. From the documentation I provided it's clear that XXXX has lied, attempted to collect false rental and equipment charges and sent us to collections without ever sending us any kind of bills so that we could dispute them.

Between XXXX we had bills for our daughter XXXX ( especially for XX/XX/XXXX ) due to a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX We were on several payment plans ( for her bills as well as my wife 's bills for XXXXXXXX XXXXt ) and were very careful to pay them all off, fulfilling all our billing obligations. Imagine our shock when, on XX/XX/XXXX we received a bill for {$470.00} from the XXXX XXXX XXXX WI. The bill was dated XX/XX/XXXX and had no explanation other than " XXXX XXXX and had printed in red " PAY IMMEDIATELY '' and " OVERDUE. '' I called the XXXX XXXX immediately to find out 1 ) What was this bill for specifically and 2 ) Why would we just receive it now, XXXX years later? I was told they would pull the records and send an itemized bill. That was on XX/XX/XXXX. In XXXX I called again and was told that they requested it from the XXXX XXXX, hadnt received it, but promised again to send it. *The very next day, we got a letter from State Collection Service letting us know we were in collections! HOW could they send us to collections when we simply asked for proof of the bill, why we're receiving it NOW, which is a patient 's right! I called State Collection immediately, explained that we are waiting for an itemized bill! I explained that this is an open case and our credit should not be in jeopardy because we asked for proof of this XXXX old bill ( again, we paid all previous bills and met all obligations. If we hadn't, we would have been sent to collections back then! ) State Collection assured me that it was understood, not to worry. " The case was so new '' a note would be made re : this information. Week of XX/XX/XXXX I received a bill from the XXXX XXXX " Final Notice. '' We called, explained -still waiting for proof of bill - itemization. If we truly owe we'll pay, But a bill for XX/XX/XXXX deserves an explanation. XXXX, manager @ XXXX XXXX said " I've been working on your case '' and will " expedite '' the itemization for this bill. She said that State Coll. should be also. '' I told her the collection agency was my other concern. Never having dealt with a collection agency before I assumed when we explained the situation a few weeks earlier and that we were dealing directly with the XXXX XXXX, the rep from State Coll was understanding and reassuring, -no worry until research on this bill was completed. To be sure, I called State Collection Agency ( XX/XX/XXXX ), spoke with " XXXX '' who told me that they also requested an itemized statement and was surprised it was taking so long. She said they also had not received the requested itemization and would " escalate this with management. She assured me not to worry and that " this account is on hold. '' She said, " Why don't you call us to follow up in a couple weeks? '' I told her I was worried that this would affect my good credit. She assured me it WOULD NOT because - and I quote - " the account is on hold. We still have time '' and said it was or would be pulled from collections. Well on XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, my credit dropped XXXX points with a note from " State Collection Agency . This is very unfair! State Collection Agency should be held accountable for misleading us and not working to try to help us get to the bottom of this bill. As well, they should be held accountable for being untruthful in telling us not to worry, notes were made in the file, we have time, and to call back in a couple weeks. It's a huge shame that businesses are allowed to operate like this, and it is what makes a person lose all faith in people and these systems. State Collection Agency needs to be held accountable for the way they are handling this and for promising that this case is on hold and that our credit would not be affected.

I started to learn about credit and how it actually works. Step one was getting my 3 credit reports. Everything was fine on them except for when I found a collection agency ( State Collection Service , Inc ) demanding that I pay a debt to them. The account number is supposedly as follows : Account # XXXX. I had no idea of this debts existence. They claimed it was a medical bill. I have always paid all such bills in full. I signed myself up for the XXXX XXXX site to help track my records and learn further information on what to do. I also bought several books on self-education concerning credit repair. I used this new knowledge and the tools provided to fix the issue by dispute. The items were simply removed from both XXXX and XXXX. This issue had only appeared with their reports. There was nothing on XXXX about the account at all. I thought alright perfect I can finally get better credit established no problem. The two bureaus had followed the law they are suppose to awesome. Then all of the sudden that same account which was removed by them was posted on my XXXX report dropping my score significantly. Making me unable to get the car and home loans. Unable to get the loan for the teeth implants I so desperately need. So I then decided to write the same kind of letter to XXXX that I had previously written to both XXXX and XXXX. I thought well they followed the law so XXXX obviously will realize its a mistake also and remove it from my report. All of the letters I sent were sent certified mail, so I know that they received them. I asked for proof of method of verification. That would prove the debt to be mine. No verification ever came. What did come was a Derogatory remark posted onto my XXXX XXXX account. Which stated Medical, customer disputes. This further dropped my score and killed my chances of ever getting the loans I needed. I then found another approach and decided to write a letter that way. Since they had violated my Hippa rights if they had recieved medical information without my consent. ( That would be the Hippa release form required to have my signature on it in order to release such information to them. ) That's when they sent me the letter stating that no such account could be found. They also spelled my last name wrong writing Mr. XXXX, I am not sure if it was just a typo or them trying to belittle and insult me. Sorry not happening!! I also feel its necessary to point out I have no signed contract with the collection agency originally in question. ( State Collection Service, Inc ) I feel that the resolution to this problem is still simply to removed this account from my records. Has I originally had requested, As I do not owe a Bill that does not belong to me and therefore should not be forced to pay it. One more thing to add to this is the fact that I received a letter telling me that such an account could not be found. If they can't find this account it should not be negatively effecting my Credit! I have spent a lot of time and effort on getting this issue corrected. I recently learned that your site could be of great help. So I'd like to thank you for your time and effort on assisting me with this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX Dates of letters will be on attached files.

On XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX XXXX XXXX after receiving a text message stating a new statement was available. I hadn't received any statements from them but I was aware my Son had received care from them in the recent prior months. We do have insurance with great coverage but wanted to make sure it was authentic and get information. I spoke to the representative who informed me that there was in fact a balance due for my Son from his XX/XX/XXXX visits. I then began to question why no statements had been mailed to me. She asked me to confirm our address which was in fact our old address from 3 years ago. I provided my correct updated address. ( Mind you at the time of service I provided my ID and it was scanned. Told the receptionist to make sure the our new address was in the system as well and provided our insurance information ) After updating our address I confirmed the service dates and asked for an itemized bill to be sent and scheduled a payment plan. I also questioned if a bill was due from a prior visit on XX/XX/XXXX when my son had emergency XXXX. I was informed they had that bill sent to collections. I asked why did I never receive this bill they stated they had mailed multiple statements and that the bill was available on the online portal. I don't have an online account or access to said portal. Not once have I been informed on how to set it up. I tried myself but don't have a access code requested by the portal fon initial set up and I realized none of my information will match because they don't even have my full legal name on the bill and the services were for my son. I never received the bill from that service date. To this date I have yet to receive a bill. If they sent the bill to this address I want proof. The only bill I have received is the itemized bill I received postmarked XX/XX/XXXX which only included services from XX/XX/XXXX and on. Since the phone representative realized the address was incorrect she stated that she made a request for the bill to be withdrawn from collections and that I would be informed via a phone call about the formal decision. I haven't received any phone calls or official notice from XXXX XXXX XXXX from this review. I did however received a state collection service letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from the XX/XX/XXXX service date. Such a coincidence that this collection letter also has the same date as the itemized statement and again my name is incorrect. I called today XX/XX/XXXX and requested an update on said review and the representative stated that their department didn't find any wrong doing on their end because they had my correct address from my ID at the time of service. Which is exactly my point I provided my correct address to them from the beginning, my full legal information including full name and address but they had been mailing the statements to the wrong address this entire time and still have my name wrong. It wasn't until I called them and updated by address on XX/XX/XXXX that they updated the mailing address in their system and the representative also informed me that they refused to pull the bill from collection. They said all I could do was contact the collection company.

This complaint is based on violations of the FDCPA and the FCRA by State Collection Service ( SCS ). ___ On XX/XX/2018, I reviewed my credit reports and saw a collection account reported by SCS regarding an alleged medical debt. I was never aware of this account so I had no opportunity to dispute the debt until this point. ___ On XX/XX/2018, I disputed the debt directly with SCS in writing. In my dispute, I included the very same form letter provided on the website of the CFPB for consumers to request validation of debt. ___ SCS received my letter on XX/XX/2018 via certified mail. ___ In my letter, I instructed SCS to cease collection of the debt until it was validated. ___ In my letter, I advised SCS that I intended to dispute the account thru the credit reporting agencies, and that if they verify the account to any credit reporting agency prior to validating the debt, then this would be a violation of the FDCPA for failing to cease collection of the debt. ___ On XX/XX/2018, I disputed the account thru the credit reporting agencies. My dispute included that I had no knowledge of the account, and that [ SCS ] failed to validate the debt as required by the [ CFPB ]. ___ Between the dates of XX/XX/2018 and XX/XX/2018, I received the results of the investigation from the credit reporting agencies, where SCS failed to cease collection of the debt because they falsely verified the account thru the credit reporting agencies. ___ At no time did SCS validate the debt or provide the answers and materials set forth in the form letter as provided from the website of the CFPB. ___ Based on the aforementioned facts ( and supported by the attached Exhibit ), SCS engaged in following violations of the FDCPA and FCRA : ___ ( a ) Violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692g in that they failed to validate the debt and have continued collection activity thru use of the credit reporting system. ___ ( b ) Violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692 ( e ) in that they have taken action that can not legally be taken. ___ ( c ) Violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692e ( 10 ) in that they employed false or deceptive means to collect a debt. ___ ( d ) Violation of the FDCPA 15 USC 1692e ( 2 ) ( A ) in that they misrepresented the character, amount of legal status of the debt. ___ ( e ) Violation of the FCRA 15 USC 1681c ( a ) ( 6 ) ( A ) in that they published the name of a medical provider on my credit report. ___ ( f ) Violation of the FCRA 15 USC 1681s-2 ( b ) ( 1 ) ( A ) in that they failed to conduct a reasonable investigation of my dispute thru the credit reporting agencies. ___ ( g ) Violation of the FCRA 15 USC 1681s-2 ( b ) ( 1 ) ( B ) in that they failed to review all relevant information provided in my dispute to the credit bureaus. ___ ( h ) Violation of the FCRA 15 USC 1681s-2 ( b ) ( 1 ) ( E ) in that they failed to modify, delete, and/or permanently block the reporting of inaccurate or unverifiable information on my credit reports.

XXXX XXXX in XXXX notified me, a renter, that the landowners meter that was over XXXX years old and equipment owned by the XXXX XXXX XXXX was not reading correctly a.k.a. XXXX, being me was being assessed charges that XXXX XXXX Claims that they can not validate in any way is a correct amount that should be paid, but calculated the usage of the home, which was empty for 8 months before I moved in and came to the average of the neighborhood and assessed me over XXXX dollars was owed. I filed a dispute with the Iowa Utilities board in which I agreed in XX/XX/XXXX to pay XXXX for. On XXXX XXXX I was given a disconnect notice for that ageed amount and forced to call XXXX XXXX to " make Arrangements '' to pay. I emailed stating I would pay XXXX a month extra a month until it was paid and my monthly bill. In turn a employee by the name of XXXX stated she could n't write the agreement up that way the computer was n't allowed to but she I quote you stated '' But I can fix this and write up the agreement for you '' So she returned the agreement. Me believing that I had to pay the monthly bill by XXXX XXXX, which I paid my monthly bill and had to start paying the XXXX dollars. What the employee did was slip in not only my monthly payment, but I would also pay an additional XXXX dollars and they she wrote the agreement that the additional XXXX would be paid by XXXX dollars, totally rewriting the debt in full after agreement was made to pay XXXX. Then when the error I pointed out to them from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX the XXXX XXXX against the Utility board settlement agreement renigged on that deal to find out, all along they were charging me incorrectly as they sent me a notice to pay state taxes as a renter for the usage of electricity because XXXX XXXX was not charging me residential prices, but they ahd been charging me based on a Business rate. When I called to place this in my name they were told it was residential use, they were told several tmes I am a renter not running abusiness. So the entire bill itself from XXXX XXXX until XXXX of XXXX I was being charged as a business rate not a resident which make the whole XXXX debt wrong. They have falied to listen they have failed to do anything but now send collection people after me and damage my credit they breached the deal and over charge dme and charged me for months I was n't even living there, They were blling me and the bill shows for two months before I was even a renter. I signed and moved XX/XX/XXXX They are charging me for XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX on this business rate and business rate from XX/XX/XXXX Until I was notified of state taxes due for business rate XXXX. Illegal billing. I notified over sixty days ago alliant energy and the collect company this is a illegal debt and a breached debt on the settlement by the alliant energy they are ignoring the disputes and ignoring everything and making demand I pay them for whatever they say and are damaging my credit over it

In XX/XX/XXXX my XXXX, Dr. XXXX, assigned me to monthly XXXX sessions with a licenced certified XXXX, XXXX XXXX, at the University of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was insured by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Insurance Company. In XX/XX/XXXX I became eligible for Medicare. I chose XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for my Medicare supplemental insurance. In XX/XX/XXXX, unbeknown to me, Medicare refused to cover my XXXX sessions because, I later found, Ms. XXXX did not have an XXXX. or XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX did not inform of this. In addition, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX supplemental insurance had refused to pay 20 % of my coverage because, they claimed, Medicare would not pay the 80 %. I was not informed of this either. Nor did XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX inform me that, as of XX/XX/XXXX, the price of XXXX visits with Ms. XXXX increased from {$220.00} per visit to {$350.00}, a 65 % increase. When I finally understood what happened, I requested that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX assign to me a XXXX XXXX who was qualified under Medicare. By this time my bill was {$2700.00}. XXXX XXXX claimed that their organization did not have the capacity to inform Medicare patients about the necessary requirements under Medicare for service reimbursement. Nor did they notify me of the 65 % price increase, knowledge that would have helped me make an informed choice for an alternative, less costly service provider and avoid debt. I also pointed out to them inconsistencies in the attached billing record. For example, from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX a XXXX visit cost {$340.00}. In contrast, from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX a XXXX visit cost {$220.00}. Then a reversal. On XX/XX/XXXX a XXXX visit cost {$340.00} and on XX/XX/XXXX it cost {$350.00}. The billing department could not explain this, nor did they assume any responsibility for it. Last, I am under qualified for partial financial assistance through the XXXX XXXX XXXX because I own my own home. I found that one nearly needs to be a pauper for financial assistance. They denied any responsibility for the untoward chain of events and flatly refused to negotiate an equitable resolution. On XX/XX/XXXX, my medical bill was referred to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, WI. I contacted and explained everything to them, but they too refused to fairly negotiate a resolution or allow any monthly payment plan. I was told that the entire amount was due in a lump sum. It was suggested that I should take out a second mortgage on my home to pay this debt. I was told that if I did not comply with their terms, the entire bill would go on my credit record and they would continue to seek reimbursement. My credit record has been above average for many years, and, at my age, it means everything to me. I hope to replace my thirty-year ARM to a fixed mortgage loan in the future but will not be able to do so under this burden. Can you please help me?

I was determined to be XXXX by the Social Security Administration. Although I received financial benefits I was not eligible for regular XXXX. I applied to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). I was determined eligible at 100 %. My doctor decided it was time for me to have XXXX. After the XXXX I inquired to XXXX regarding unpaid bills. The XXXX billing office ( which I visited in person no less than twice ), referred me to XXXX XXXX 'for help applying XXXX ' to the unpaid bills. Instead of 'applying XXXX XXXX to bills ', XXXX XXXX said they were sending me a " XXXX application '' in the mail to sign. The documents I received were little more than a debt collection attempt. Documents authorized full access to my social security XXXX file appointing XXXX my authorized representative -and- granted XXXX XXXX access to all my financial records. I told them I would apply for XXXX on my own and would not make them my authorized representative. XXXX XXXX then marked my file " Non-Compliant '' which revoked all access to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX a.k.a. XXXX XXXX '. I appealed the denial/revocation of XXXX XXXX. At that point XXXX XXXX XXXX ( speaking as XXXX XXXX with access to all communications with XXXX and XXXX ) wrote many emails to the effect that I was in fact " non-compliant with XXXX XXXX ''. When I presented documents and telephone transcripts to the effect - I did apply for XXXX, was approved for a XXXX Spend Down, and the only objection I held was releasing my entire life to XXXX my appeal was said to be won and I was again eligible for XXXX XXXX ( XXXX. ) -- at least I was on paper. However XXXX XXXX XXXX then reported to XXXX CEO that I was " non-compliant '' with XXXX XXXX. CEO XXXX XXXX wrote me to get in compliance and only AFTER XXXX paid all the portion not relating to my spend down XXXX XXXX would cover the balance. XXXX/XXXX had/has no record of my non-compliance. When questioned in person, there were no documents to sign, etc. XXXX/XXXX simply told me to submit the bills for payment -- nothing more. Bills went into collections. The final statement I received from XXXX showed a balance of {$3000.00} - a balance that would coincide with my spend down portion. However the balance in collections is {$6600.00} - more than double the amount of my most recent XXXX statement. I have had no new XXXX appointments, proceedures, etc. I believe XXXX/XXXX used retaliation tactics to not only deny me access to healthcare ( at a vulnerable time immediately after my XXXX ), but also created medical debt that should not exist. I believe XXXX/XXXX has not only broken public law, but also behaved in a manner lacking every possible code of ethics.

For the past month, I've been receiving call from state collection service inc. This is their address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, XXXX The phone call i received from them is at all hours, morning as early as XXXX XXXX, night as late as XXXX XXXX. They said that I owed them a medical debt of $ XXXX. I requested the representative send me a copy of the debt along with the copy of my ID that shows the name, address, date and time of the copy of the debt that they said belonged to me. The associate i spoke with by the name of XXXX XXXX, told me that they are not going to comply with my request when I'm the person that they try to collect the $ XXXX debt from, explained to him that it is my right to request this information that state collection service have on me. That's when he started threatening me by saying that state collection is a powerful collection agency that have connection with the law enforcement and will use the law enforcement not only to destroy my credit history and my life, but also the lifes of people around me, which is my wife, XXXX of my kids, friends, families, relatives etc. The state collection agency associate also threatened me by claiming that state collection agency will put me in jail without any chance of parole if i didn't pay up the $ XXXX that they claimed i owed them and slammed the phone on me. After that conversation that's when the call started coming in at different time through out the day and night, spoke to a friend of mine from church who is an attorney, he told me that state collection service inc doesn't have anything on me since they are not able to provide the information that I requested, he also told me to ask state collection to call his office if they called the next time. I followed his advise and told the next person that i spoke with by the name of XXXX XXXX to call my attorney and provide my attorney with the proof that i owed them $ XXXX in medical debt they said that incurred in Wisconsin which doesn't make sense as i have never lived in Wisconsin XXXX give XXXX ' my attorney address too, she said that state collection agency will use their contact with the government to go after me and my attorney and make sure that my attorney and me will never see the light of the day per se. It's been a week now they still keep calling me night and day on the daily basis to harass and threaten me. So far neither me nor my attorney have received any official documentation from State collection agency.

On XX/XX/2021 at XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, respectively, I received 2 back-to-back calls from phone number XXXX stating the following " We have a message from State Collection Service ; this is a call from a debt collector please call XXXX '' ( and the second voice mail left the exact same message, but with phone number XXXX ). Upon researching State Collection Service, I discovered they are located in XXXX, WI -- an area code of XXXX, NOT XXXX ( which is norther MN area code ). I also read their MANY customer reviews, 95 % of which accused State Collection Service of being fraudulent and/or collecting debts in illegal manners that do not comply with standard debt collection practices ( over charging their credit cards, threatening them, using vulgar language, reporting non-payment to the credit bureaus even when they paid, etc. ) I have ZERO debt, as I pay my bills using automatic payments to my credit card ( and then pay that down to XXXX multiple times each month ). Things like my mortgage are ALWAYS paid on time, and my auto loan is so new that I do not even owe my first payment on it yet. I had ONE case where a medical bill of {$25.00} was sent to collections ; however my paid-in-full check for {$25.00} was in the mail at the same time that XXXX sent that past-due bill to collections, and this was after their representative told me NOT to pay it as my assistance application was being reviewed ( to which I have still not heard back regarding that status, hence why I just paid the {$25.00} off in full. ) -- ALL of this was explained to the debt collector who called me. That issue was no more, as XXXX received my payment, and all debts were settled. I have recently ( and by recently, I mean yesterday ) looked to see if I had an ( y ) outstanding bill ( s ) with XXXX as I have been going in for numerous appointments as of late to diagnose potential XXXX. My running balance as of XX/XX/2021 is {$0.00}. Due to the fact that my ONE collections experience was a total mishap, my recent balance due being {$0.00}, all bills paid up in full amounts owed for the period, and the fact that I manage my finances EXCEPTIONALLY well, I do believe that this attempt to collect a debt ( that I obviously do not owe ) is FRUAD, and I would expect that this report be taken seriously so that someone in a less-managed position than I am in can avoid being taken advantage of by these criminals.

Im writing to share a serious concern regarding our familys interaction with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX In summary, a billing dispute has now escalated to the point of harassment, and we are asking for your help to resolve this matter. Please allow me to share the fact pattern for this issue : -Our son was born at the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. -The birth is a fully covered cost. Our insurance coverage is through XXXX XXXX XXXX, and our healthcare coordinator is XXXX. We have a confirmed EoB [ Evidence of Benefits ] from XXXX stating that this is a covered cost. XXXX XXXX XXXX has communicated that this claim has been paid in full. XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has been unable to identify the payment. As such, weve been contacted by the XXXX XXXX billing department on several occasions [ dates listed below ] stating that the invoice status for XXXX birth is unpaid and has now gone into a formal collection process. -To trace the payment, XXXX has communicated to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX must initiate a request to the local XXXX office to research and find the payment that was made. When weve communicated this requirement to XXXX XXXX, the response has been, Thats not my job. Neither XXXX, in its role as the healthcare coordinator, nor we [ the covered parties ] can initiate a check trace as we are not parties to the financial transaction between the payor [ XXXX ], and XXXX XXXX, the payee. Weve worked diligently to resolve this matter with XXXX XXXX but unfortunately have been unable to come to a resolution. As mentioned, the tone of the conversation has now been raised to the level of harassment, and this is now unacceptable. XXXX XXXX is currently requesting payment of {$380000.00}. Please note that there have been several iterations from XXXX XXXX requesting different amounts. Dates of communication : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX Attached with this submission are : 1. The EoB [ Evidence of Benefits ] from XXXX stating that this is a covered cost and the payment for this claim has been made. Please note that they payment made is equal to the negotiated rate between XXXX [ our insurer and the payor ] and XXXX XXXX [ the payee ], and is not equal to the amount in the collection 's notice. 2.

Hello, I have repeatedly tried contacting XXXX XXXX XXXX since XX/XX/2021 about a derogatory account that appeared on my credit report for {$90.00}, part of an alleged {$150.00} owed that I was not given information about. They apparently sent it to a collections service, State Collection Service, with whom I contacted. I disputed this due to the fact I had not received notice of this. They too found that they had received incorrect contact information from XXXX XXXX XXXX ( on behalf of Illinois XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX ). They closed the account and sent it back to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I received a written notice of this and two phone calls confirmed. I have repeatedly contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to check if this debt is legitimate and to verify it and have received various replies. The contact was in the form of several certified mail letters ( with receipts showing they were delivered to the correct address ) and about 8 phone calls or so. They admit they are upgrading to a new computer system and had my old address on file ( which doesn't make sense since I've used 3 other XXXX offices from the same XXXX and they have the correct contact information ). Each call I was told they are not showing anything, then a rapid call back, I was told that they do have a record of it but they haven't verified it with the Collections Company ( State Collection Service ). I now contact the collections company again and the representative as well as automated system has no record of any accounts for me. I call XXXX XXXX XXXX again and they say they received notice of this, but the system hasn't updated. I provided them with my correct information and each subsequent call I am getting a somewhat different story or finding out they still have the wrong contact information. I have repeatedly and in good faith tried to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX and its associated XXXX and they will not provide me with an answer except " call back in 10 days '' which I had been told 4 times. Each time I call, they have issues looking up the account, which actually exists, and then I am told that the account isn't " updated ''. This is ridiculous as if I owe a debt, I will gladly pay it, given I am informed of it. I have a perfect record of doing so, and when I am trying in earnest for almost 6 months to verify if it existed at all, they provide ambiguous 'answers '.

I wrote and sent a Certified Letter with Read Receipt for debt validation to State Collection Service on XX/XX/XXXX at STATE COLLECTION SERVICE XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, WI XXXX. In conformance to my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I have requested that STATE COLLECTION SERVICE provide me with complete documentation to verify that I owe said debt and have any legal obligation to pay them. I have not received a satisfactory response within the 30 day period for Debt Validation. ( 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) ). I asked for the following : 1 ) Agreement with the creditor that authorizes State Collection Service to collect on the alleged debt. 2 ) The agreement bearing my signature stating that I have agreed to assume the debt. 3 ) Valid copies of the debt agreement stating the amount of the debt and interest charges. Accounting of all charges is required. 4 ) Proof that the Statute of limitations has not expired. 5 ) Complete payment history on this account along with an accounting of all additional charges. 6 ) Show me that they are licensed to collect in my state ; and their license numbers and Registered Agent. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a second Certified Letter with Read Receipt for debt validation to State Collection Service at STATE COLLECTION SERVICE PO BOX XXXX XXXX, WI XXXX. The communication I received both times as shown in the attached documentation they have provided myself - did not meet FDCPA requirements. The documentation provided by STATE COLLECTION SERVICE does not provide : There is no Chain of Title provided that in fact evidences Standing. The assignment, whereas, the assignment refers to the contract between original creditor and credit collection agency, is to be established by a written contract of assignment, which can be established through multiple documents that are incorporated by reference into the contract of assignment. The contract of assignment, however, must contain the information required by the Illinois Collection Agency Act ( ACC ) including the date of assignment, the consideration paid, interest, charges, and all accounting of the matter and the identifying information for the account. Illinois Collection Agency Act Section 8 ( b ) ( 225 ILCS 425/8b ) Debt Collection Agency added to this Actrequires written agreement evidencing assignment of debt, recording of assignments.

Disputed through XXXX, Debt was removed by the investigations findings. State Collections added it right back a few days later. Disputed through XXXX. Same thing deleted from account and the collection agency added it right back. I did follow up with each, deleted by both credit reporting agencies and added back a few days later. My reason for the dispute is because I was never notified of a collection company. I found it by checking my credit report. Through the dispute I found it to be hospital bills for several XXXX and hospital stay for XXXX 2 days. Then disputed the amount claimed by collections that I owed. The dispute was for the collections amount of {$1200.00}. Last reported XX/XX/2019 Then the same collections company added another collection for {$1100.00} Last reported XXXX XXXX same date. Now State Collection Service says I owe them a total of {$2400.00} I have been paying XXXX, the hospital regularly every month and the balance owed is {$900.00} not the {$2400.00}. Apparently the collection service is going to try to get me to pay them a second time for the hospital services. XXXX hospital refuses to tell me rather they sold my account to State Collection service. XXXX told us back when we started making payments that they dont send out statements after 90 days. So my wife kept track of what she paid leaving todays balance of {$900.00}. When I found out there was collections reported I called the Hospital to ask if they sold the account to State collections or if state was acting as a collection resource on their behalf. The Hospital refused to answer that question which makes me even more nervous because I might have to pay the same bill twice. We used checks to pay them so proof of payments can be gotten from the bank. The amount starting was {$2900.00}. The difference is the payments we made to XXXX in the 90 days before they sent the balance to State collections. The hospital said that the turn all bills owed after 90 days to collections. They said they sent a contract for payments to be made monthly which we never received. But, we made payments because we knew we owed them even without statements. As my credit report shows all of my other payments for car loans, credit cards etc. are marked monthly as paid on time.

Hello, I was recently checking my credit report via a credit card application on my phone. I had noticed a discrepancy a new negative account was opened so I decided to check it out and it said that there was a charge-off / collection flagged on my account for XXXX and now apparently XXXX. The issuer of this flag is State Collections. I noticed that the original alleged the owner was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have since used this very same consumerfinance.gov website to make a complaint about them as well. I tried to verify the debt and it is not matching up with what is listed on my report and what XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX specifically XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX Illinois stated. They stated that they sold the debt to a collection company ( State Collections ). I have received quite literally nothing whatsoever indicating that I had any debt and this hospital has my current information so I do not understand. The hospital in question had stated that there was allegedly {$150.00} in delinquent co-pays. I tried to work with them to investigate the debt but XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX part of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, did not seem interested. On my credit report the alleged debt that they purported to have sold to State Collections is listed as {$90.00}. Not {$150.00} I am wondering if this company now is holding something back and if I dispute this that they will place another flag on my credit. I truly believe this to be a huge misunderstanding as I have not been late on a single debt in my life. Although with all the aforementioned information provided, I did make another CFPB report for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and I am to make another about this company State Collection as I believe this listing is invalid and even if it were the alleged amount, the amount is incorrect and they may further damage my credit. I have likewise received absolutely no correspondence, alerts, mail or phone calls from anybody at State Collections about owing this and I am extremely upset about this entire ordeal. I have worked hard to maintain a great credit score and to get it damaged for something that I wasn't aware of or is happening by mistake is horrifying Perhaps there is an accounting error, perhaps sent to wrong address, or perhaps a bad SS number.

Around mid XX/XX/XXXX I starting getting calls from XXXX XXXX since my wireless provider flagged the number as suspected SPAM/Fraud. I refused to answer the number. The calls keep coming daily and multiple times per day. I finally out of curiosity answered the a call later in the month XX/XX/XXXX around XX/XX/XXXX of the month. I asked who they were and why were they calling me. They refused to id themselves and asked for my birthday social security number to id me before they would tell who they were and why they were calling. I told them I would never provide sensitive information that could result in ID theft to unidentified caller id as SPAM suspected Fraud by my wireless provider. They still refused to say who they were and demanded my personal info again. I hung up on them. The calls kept coming and I decided this time to co call back around the end of XXXX hoping to hear a company name or information. None was provided Rep picked up refused to say who they were. Again demanded my personal information before they would provide who they were and why they were calling. On XX/XX/XXXX I got letter dated XX/XX/XXXX from State collections Service Inc with XXXX number listed that was calling me. I proceeded to call and asked why? the couldn't have said I'm with State Collections Service Inc and I'm debt collector attempting to collect a debt? The person said we don't do that until we verify we have the correct person. This is appalling a debt collection company will not at least say who they are. How is that in line with FDCA orr ACA practices? I settlement the final amount owing to the Hospital and bill is not paid in full. But, I wanted this complaint noted as I don't see how the XXXX gives this company A+ with all the negative complaints. How is anyone raving about debt collection company that calls you for weeks before sending the letter on the debt. In this day and age of rampant ID theft how is it fair practice to call people and not at least saying your company name and your debt collector? Where is that problem you're not discussing the account they're calling on or any other information.

Dear Sir/Madam, I just received a debt collection letter dated on XX/XX/XXXX from State Collection Service , Inc. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX WI XXXX for {$30.00} to my mailing address at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX CA XXXX. The letter indicated the past due account have been referred to its office for debt collection. I initially made an appointment for XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX @ XXXX with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Hospital XXXX XXXX for preliminary XXXX a ( XXXX ) XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CA XXXX. But I called their office at the number stated above may be around ONE week prior to the appointment date to cancel the appointment because I did not want to go through with the XXXX after consulting with friends and family. The secretary on the phone reaffirmed me that the appointment has been cancelled and I had nothing to worry about because there will be no XXXX. Now, 6 months later today on XX/XX/XXXX, I received their first notice of payment of {$30.00} through this credit agency. Why did the secretary tell me it was cancelled and still billed for for an office visit I did not go to? I 've never received any bills from XXXX or any written notification from their office for this {$30.00} bill either to my mailing address ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX CA XXXX ) or my home address ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX CA XXXX ) until now through this collection agency. This is NOT good for my credit nor is it fair for me. I am going to mail the {$30.00} payment to State Collection Service, Inc. today. But please request XXXX Hospital to remove this from my credit history as it is clearly NOT my fault nor was I aware of what has transpired. Thank you in advance for all your help in this matter.

On XXXX XXXX, 2015 my husband was treated by XXXX XXXX, this provider is a PPO provider with our insurance and they paid everything except for {$120.00} which I paid by check to XXXX XXXX and clearly stated the payment was for services rendered to XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/15. My check cleared XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/15. On XXXX/XXXX/15 I received notice from XXXX that we owed {$61.00} & {$26.00} for these same services and when I tried numerous times to talk to XXXX XXXX with XXXX to explain this had been paid and send a copy of the cleared check, he advised they sometimes take the money and place it in different accounts but could not tell me why or where the money went. He then referred the matter to State Collection and they continue to write me repeatedly for the same services I have already paid to the XXXX and neither the collection agent or XXXX will provide a complete itemized bill showing where the funds went and what if any other charges we owe. I have spent hours on this and have incurred severe emotion upset because of this. I feel they have fraudulently taken my money and continue to ask me to pay the same charges. XXXX also stated they may have taken some of the XXXX money and put it on my charges, however, XXXX and I both have deductibles and I met my out of pocket this year so I have no way of knowing what was paid or where my money went. All I know is that I paid the full amount to the ENT that they are repeatedly requesting and they refuse to resubmit it for review to my insurance carrier which is required by their PPO contract with my insurance company if we owe additional money that the insurance company has not reviewed. At this point I have invested hours in emails, letters, research and discovery and have advised them I am charging them {$45.00} an hour for all the time I spend on this as well as mail, copying, research etc. Today just in my time alone they owe me over {$630.00}. Please help, I cant continue this. I have XXXX XXXX XXXX and we pay our bills I can not have this continue. Thank you so much XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX at XXXX This incident has been ongoing since at least XXXX. Previously, I had an oxygen concentrator, which was returned to XXXX at XXXX on XXXX, because my doctor tested my overnight oxygen levels and found that I no longer needed the supplemental oxygen. On XXXX, I received a statement from XXXX at XXXX for charges for the oxygen concentrator for the months of XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/2022. At that time, I spoke with XXXX from XXXX at XXXX, who indicated that an annual approval from my insurance company, XXXX, was required for use of the oxygen concentrator. She stated that she would check with XXXX to obtain the necessary approval. She also stated that, if the authorization was not received, these charges would be written off. My next statement, dated XXXX, indicated that these charges were still outstanding. In addition, there was a charge for {$60.00} for new XXXX supplies. I paid the {$60.00} online on XXXX and received a receipt via email. I received my next statement, dated XXXX, which indicated that nothing had been paid as of this date. I spoke with XXXX from XXXX at XXXX ( XXXX ), who said that I should ignore this statement, because the pre-authorization had gone through. My next 2 statements still indicated no payment had been made. I called XXXX again, and again, she said to ignore the statement charges. She said she was going to contact customer service and that this bill was supposed to have been escalated for payment on XXXX but, instead, it was sent to collections. I spoke with XXXX again on XXXX, because my XXXX statement still indicated no payment AND I received notification from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that {$60.00} had been sent through to collections. She stated that the {$60.00} was applied incorrectly to the XXXX oxygen concentrator charge and that it was re-applied correctly in XXXX. She further stated that she would check with XXXX re : payment. I have now received a new statement dated XXXX, and the charges for the oxygen concentrator for XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/2022 are still showing!

On XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX, I XXXX my hand at work. I went to the XXXX at my local hospital. I was treated in the XXXX and had follow up visits set up with the XXXX XXXX department at the hospital. I had and went to four follow-up visits in the XXXX XXXX department. I did receive a bill from the hospital for the initial XXXX visit. When I called the hospital about it, they told me they had not yet received the XXXX 's " XXXX XXXX XXXXnformation from my employer. I took the bill to work and received the XXXX 's XXXX XXXX information which I then gave to the hospital. I later received a second bill from the hospital, I called them again and explained that it was a XXXX 's XXXX XXXX. The Hospital apologized and said they would take care of it. The hospital has not contacted me again about that bill. States Collection Service is trying to fraudulently collect {$200.00} towards that XXXX visit. I have received numerous phone calls where they have left voicemails, they have sent text messages to my phone, they have written me. They are threatening to steal my tax refund. I did reply to them last year ( XX/XX/XXXX ) when they first contacted me. I explained that this was a XXXX 's XXXX claim. And that I had already given the XXXX 's XXXX claim information to the hospital and the the hospital bill was paid in full. I included with my response, their original request, the after visit paperwork from the hospital showing it was a XXXX 's XXXX Claim, a copy of the accident report turned in to my employer, a copy of the XXXX 's XXXX Claim information I supplied to the hospital, and a printout from the hospital website showing that insurance had covered 100 % of the bill and my balance was ZERO. I told them to never contact me again, including by phone, text message, email, or in writing. State Collection Services has again written me trying to fraudulently collect {$200.00} towards a fully paid XXXX visit. They are threating to steal my tax refund if I do not pay them.

I Have received medical treatment for various reasons, including an accidental fall at a XXXX store thru XXXX XXXX XXXX. The medical bills from this accident, has been submitted properly to XXXX because XXXX has neglected to pay anything. I have being in therapy for a year now, XXXX 's and other specialty treatments have taken place because of this. XXXX health has also treated me for other important tests proper of women 's health. XXXX has paid all of this bills reasonably, but XXXX has continously sent us billing even if I am not visiting the hospital, to a point where I dont know if we are paying more or not or the same bills. Without prior notification, this bills have been placed on my credit report, and has created our economic situation worse, because my husband, who is a XXXX veteran, has even paid some of these out of our own pocket to avoid them damaging my credit, but the problem is, now I have 4 colelctions and always from diffrent colectors with no prior notice of neither. By the time we get the bill, this are on my record. My husband, who is a former medical manager from the XXXX, has told me, that they might also be violating the federal law, because supposely when they charge and accept XXXX, that suppose to be final. By the dsame token, XXXX XXXX is overcharging, by dividing one visit into different medical professionals within the same clinic for that one visit, so i keep getting bills as if we were reach. The last bill I got for {$3000.00}, stated for us to contact XXXX to pay them, because they have not succeeded. Why should we do work of this anture for free and we dont know the process, they have been getting paid all along, and suddenly, Iam afraid this debt is going to suddenly show up on my credit. You will see that my credit has been ruined by this medical company in a short amount of time. Also, froederert hospital does the same XXXX and charged me only XXXX dollars as a residual for a bill of similar charges by XXXX.

For the period from XXXX XXXX, 2015 thru XXXX XXXX, 2015, my medical insurer was XXXX. During the same period, XXXX XXXX was my medical device provider. XXXX has repeatedly attempted to collect for rental for a XXXX for the treatment of XXXX XXXX. According to XXXX, XXXX did not obtain pre-authorization to bill XXXX for the rental of the XXXX and denied charges for the certain months, but has paid their portion of the charges for other months. XXXX has advised me on multiple occasions that I am not responsible for payment under the terms of their agreement with XXXX and that I can not be billed for the contested charges. However, XXXX has repeatedly attempted to collect directly from me and on several occasions has placed the charges with a collection agency. ( I will note that my complaint is strictly against XXXX, not the collection agency ) Furthermore, I have documentation from both XXXX and XXXX that the CPAP rental for XXXX 2015 was paid, yet XXXX continues to claim I owe them {$300.00} for that period. Presently XXXX claims I owe them {$980.00} although this figure seems to fluctuate from month to month with little explanation as to why. As recently as XXXX 2015 XXXX claimed the amount due was {$1900.00} Finally, I made a payment of {$490.00} in XXXX 2015 for for the XXXX, 2015 machine rental, under duress, in order to prevent the charge being sent to collections. I am contesting that charge as well and want the money refunded. I have referred this issue to the Washington State Attorney General 's Consumer Protection Division but their role in this matter appears to be limited to mediation with no apparent enforcement authority. To date neither XXXX nor XXXX have responded to the WaAG-CPD inquiry. I was advised by the AG 's CPD office that private legal action may be my only option, but did suggest that a complaint with CFPB may also be helpful.

In XX/XX/XXXX I applied for a small personal loan to consolidate my debt but was denied due to a collection placed on my XXXX Credit Report. The issue is not only am i know the responsible party but I never even received the bill because the collection notices were being sent to an address that I haven't lived in in over a decade. Additionally, this bill was to be paid by my attorneys office on my behalf due to a car accident that I was involved in over 2 years ago. I made the collection agency aware of this when I first discovered the issue. All collection attempts were to go through his firm and not myself. XX/XX/XXXX I applied for a small furniture loan in which I was denied because the inquiry still wasn't removed from my report at which time I reached out to my attorneys office and was told that they were working on the issue. At this point, the collection agency refused to talk to me about my issue because I was being represented by an attorney. We are now approaching XX/XX/XXXX and we aren't any closer to getting this resolved and I cant refinance my loan on my home because of this inquiry. I am devastated and have been unable to sleep for months! According to my attorney, I sworn officer of the court, his office has requested a verified bill from them to submit payment " many, many times '' but to know avail. ( See attached emails. ) On XX/XX/XXXX, in a desperate attempt to get this matter resolved immediately, I relieved my attorney of his duties so I can deal with this matter directly since my life is being affected so drastically. After doing so, I asked if I can resolve this issue by making a payment and have the collection removed from my credit report immediately since I, nor my attorneys office was made aware of the bill in a timely manner. I was denied this right, thus, prompting my complaint.

On XX/XX/2018 at XXXX I contacted State Collection Services in regards to a medical bill on my credit that was so to them. I was told in order to settle this debt they would have to get approval from the original debtor and it could only be discounted 30 %. I put in an offer. I then called XXXX XXXX Hospital in XXXX Illinois billing which is the original debtor on XX/XX/18 at XXXX to confirm this was in fact a true practice and I was told they had nothing to do with how the debt is handled. I also proceeded to ask to speak with the manager and was told " she '' was out of the office until next week. So I called State Collections back on XX/XX/2018 XXXX XXXX to check on the status of the settlement. I was told that it was denied and that a counter offer of a different amount was offered. I questioned when this was approved and they informed me they got an answer back on a Saturday XX/XX/2018. I didn't feel like I was being told the truth. So I attempted to verify this with the manager on XX/XX/2018, XX/XX/2018, XX/XX/2018, XX/XX/2018 and each time I was told that the manager has not received anything from State Collection Services. So after numerous attempts to actually speak with the manager my last call was placed today XX/XX/2018 at XXXX where I was put on hold for quite a while. The first time the receptionist got back on the phone I was told that they still have not received anything from this company. I then was placed on hold again and at this point I was told well we received an offer and what they said is what we approved. So I believe they lied to me and because they hired this company so to save face they went ahead and confirmed what to me is a lie. On top of that the amount I was told that was offered today was different form the amount offered when I spoke with them on the XXXX of XXXX.

I reported it and they sent me to the hospital, XXXX XXXX Hospital in XXXX IL, on company time to get an XXXX. The XXXX came back clean and the diagnosis was a XXXX in the XXXX. I got sent the bill from the hospital and gave it to my HR Representative at my XXXX location. I was assured that the bill was going to be taken care of at that time. A few months later I got another statement from the hospital stating that the bill was not being paid on. Again I gave the statement to my HR representative and was assured it was going to be taken care of in a timely fashion. I had left the company a few months later and continued to receive statements from the hospital. I was put in contact with the corporate HR who put me in touch with their XXXX XXXX XXXX and they told me it would be taken care of as well. A considerable amount of time has past and I am now getting letters from the state of Illinois Collection Agency about the bills not being paid on. I have repeatedly attempted to reach the corporate offices of XXXX company and there has not been any response. I have also tried to reach the people from the XXXX XXXX XXXX that worked with XXXX and found that the first person no longer worked there and the next person and agency is also not returning or answering calls. This is now starting to pin me in an unfortunate place and the company responsible, the company who had told me time and time again it was being handled, and their partners are being highly unprofessional in their communication and ways of handling the situation.

my son required an XXXX XXXX and my insurance was contracted with XXXX XXXX for this service. after having the machine for a few months my son no linger needed the machine and I called apria to come and pick up the machine, ( waited nearly XXXX mins for to speak to a rep ). They never showed up to pick up the machine. Called again a few times over the next few weeks waited on hold for over an hour to request for someone to pick up the machine. Finally about a month later I was able to sit on the phone and wait to get through to schedule a pick up. I then received a bill for aprox {$83.00} and I called and waited on hold for another hour or so to speak to someone about my bill. I had requested the machine be pick up last month and no one ever showed up. It is not my fault that they have no one answering the phone to schedule pick ups, i requested that the total be reduced. They would not work with me and extremely frustrated at this point, I ended up just paying the {$83.00} in order to just be done with them. Then a few month later I received a check from them for around XXXX dollars. I was confused but just figured they had done some kind of internal Audit and realized that they had over charged me. Then a couple month after that I received a call from a collection agency requesting the {$50.00} for XXXX XXXX, I called the Collection Agency and discussed this with them and told me that XXXX received the {$50.00} from my insurance and then paid it to me and now I need to pay it back to them? Why are they still collecting money from my insurance and why I am being sent to collections for the this?

My insurance, XXXX, rented a XXXX pump from XXXX XXXX and covered the cost for me. However, I had to return the XXXX pump to avoid any charges, which I did. I called XXXX to send me a return label to return it ; they sent me an empty box with a return label. I put the XXXX pump in the box and dropped it off at XXXX, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX MD XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX ; my tracking number XXXX. When I tracked it, the package was delivered. On XXXX XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX stating that I had in my possession its XXXX pump that needed to be returned if I didn't want to get charged. I called XXXX right away to explain that I had already returned it. They said they did not receive it and will investigate, so they will let me know their findings. I said, ok, but I can not be held accountable for the pump if they did not get it because I dropped it off with their return label that XXXX provided. They did not call me to make me aware of anything but sent me a bill of {$500.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I called them back again. On the billing letter, it was stated, " call on XXXX if you do not have the equipment in your possession ''. I called right away and explained to them again that I had returned the pump. The XXXX ' representative, said that was fine ; the charge will be dismissed. In less than a month on XXXX XXXX XXXX sent me to collection and I received the collection letter from State Collection Service , Inc . I'm reporting this unfair matter, and I would appreciate getting help regarding this matter please. Thank you

I received an initial demand letter from State Collection Service dated XX/XX/2018. My husband contacted their agency the following week and spoke with a XXXX XXXX ( legal supervisor ). He asked if their agency was aware that the debt was disputed in the last 20 days with the previous agency she stated no and they were not made aware by either the previous collection agency or their client ( XXXX XXXX ). After discussing the account with XXXX XXXX for over 10 minutes my husband asked if she knew who she was speaking with and she stated XXXX. My husband explained to her that he was not XXXX and she continued to address my husband as XXXX four other instances. When asked if she was aware that she had violated third party disclosure laws by not verifying who she was speaking with, XXXX XXXX responded by saying she did and then stated that the agent who transferred the call told her that she had done it. My husband explained that no one asked who they were speaking with at any point and that she had released personal information relating to the debt and asked to be transferred to her manager. XXXX XXXX stated that would be XXXX XXXX but he would not take or return the call as we claimed there was an FDCPA violation. We requested that she go back to the call and review it for quality control to verify that she did violate third party laws but she stated their agency does not record any conversations. This is the second agency we have requested validation of debt from only to have no one return our calls or provide any documentation.

Hi, My name is XXXX XXXX and this debt of {$30.00} was a medical co-pay from XXXX / XXXX when I had back surgeries. I was never notified and have no clue when this collection agency has put this derogatory remark on my credit report. When I called them, they tried to multiply the {$30.00} co-pay that was paid by a entire year and said I now owe {$360.00} and that 's what they wanted. I 've never been without medical insurance and never had a problem in the past with a co-pay, but they are impossible to speak with, rude, foul and unreasonable. I 've asked them several times to please validate the dept and that they ca n't do! Can you help at all, there was a link from creditkarma to your web site? Here is a copy and paste of the derogatory remark, which destroys my credit report. It 's not reported to XXXX or XXXX , only reported with XXXX .

In XX/XX/2019 I recieved a phone call from the above mentioned business. I answered and asked them not to call me again. In XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/2019 I recieved another call, which is in direct violation of the FDCPA but in good faith to make payments on the account I set up a payment arrangement for the XX/XX/XXXX of the month for XXXX via my debit card. In XX/XX/2019 I advised i would not be able to make the payment due to a job change and that my new pay period lands on the XX/XX/XXXX and my payment arrangement would need to be adjusted. A XXXX payment was drafted from my account successfully on XXXX. On XXXX a XXXX payment was drafted from my debit account that I did not authorize. I called the company and spoke to a XXXX who told me the charge could not be reversed and would need permission from the client. Thus, over drafting my debit account. My bank has assessed and applied a XXXX overdraft fee for a transaction I did not authorize. XXXX told me it's noted in their system that I did call and change the date to the XX/XX/XXXX, it was just never done. She then proceeded to tell me if I didnt want to pay it that they can reccommed to have this sent to the credit bureaus thus, affected my credit and intimidating me to pay a debt that i've never recieved a verification of debt for. When I called on XX/XX/XXXX I spoke to an XXXX, I asked for a supervisor and was told no. The above mentioned company is engaged in unfair and abusive tactics and I request that they be investigated.

State Collections is a third party collections agency is contracted through XXXX XXXX XXXX to collect debts for them. State Collections agency has repeatedly contacted my wife and me several times asking them verbally to stop calling us regarding this debt. It has been explained to them on several occasions that there was an error in the billing and we are working with XXXX and the insurance agency to correct the billing error. The problem is that when XXXX XXXX makes call they refuse to provide their name when asked what company is calling. They state that they can not legally provide the name of there company until they can verify the person they are looking for. Its only after you threaten to file a complaint will they then provide the number. They have called on back to back days ( XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX ). On XX/XX/XXXX a man called looking for my wife and when I explained to him the situation I asked that he remove my phone number and my wife 's phone number from his call list, which he stated that he would. Not even XXXX hours later a get another phone call from a different number with the same routine of refusing to provide me information regarding who the company is. It took for me to threaten them with this complaint that they provided me the name of State Collections. I again asked them to stop calling us. State Collections is now stating that they are protected under the disclosure laws and they do not have to provide any information to the anyone who calls them.

I would like to notify you about a problem that occurred today regarding one of XXXX 's billing contractors, specifically " State Collection Service , Inc. '' which is located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, WI XXXX. The corporate office has a website and several toll-free numbers XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX or XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX. An employee of State Collection Service, identifying themselves as " XXXX XXXX '', was using a WA State phone number XXXX to collect payments ( in my case - in error - no money was owed ) today. Unfortunately, XXXX XXXX decided to record and use the robocall from the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX office as her own Caller ID/ Announcement to entice XXXX customers supposedly owing money to pick up their phone. While it was an ingenious idea on the first day of school in the district ( to make parents think their child was in trouble or sick on the first day at school ), it was also clearly illegal IAW both WA State and federal law, specifically The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act which prohibits debt collectors from " The use of any false representation or deceptive means to collect or attempt to collect any debt or to obtain information concerning a consumer. '' If State Collection Service , Inc. tries to deny the allegation, it should be reminded that the collection agency is often not the only party on the line recording phone calls - many consumers, like myself, do it now for their own protection. Thank you.

Hello. I have a doctor 's visit at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2023 ( this year ) at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX, XXXX, OH XXXX. I had something weird on my lips and around them. I never got a real doctor to see me. It was a nurse, and she gave me the very, very wrong diagnosis and assured me it was XXXX. She prescribed me very strong medicine for that and 100 % didn't do anything I just kept getting worst it was super painful.. Then I went to my dermatologist ( a really great, well-known doctor in the best hospital in XXXX ( XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX de XXXX. And the doctor said it was not XXXX at all, not even similar. So he gave me medicine for a dermatitis, which is what I had, and it solved the problem. But in the midtime, I was wrong diagnosed by this person in XXXX XXXX and taking very strong medicines that I didn't need. I was really upset I called them and told them, so the person that I spoke with on the customer service told me to send my doctor 's letter and prescription for the diagnosis I had, and I did. So he said not to worry about the payment, and then suddenly I was in collection. I want to sue them if necessary. I don't mind going to court and proving that they are giving very wrong diagnoses and medicine to people. So please help me and tell me what to do because I am not willing to affect my good credit, and I am not willing to pay for this terrible medical mistake they made with me.

Your prior menu was not pertinent to my specific complaint today, but repeated phone calls which I did not answer have occurred. Today, XXXX XXXX, 2017 at approximately XXXX CST I received a call from XXXX. A female gave her name ( I do n't remember but it will be in the attached recording ) and said " this is a monitored and recorded call about a personal business matter. '' She asked if she was speaking to XXXX XXXX. I said she was and I am also recording the call. She asked to verify my identity by asking for additional information. I asked her to provide the business name before I provided additional information. She said she needed the information first for a personal business matter. I advised her that by law I am entitled to the company name before providing personal information. ( I did not say to her that I am not an attorney but was speaking in a pro Se capacity when discussing laws. ) She said she would send me information and then I could call. That ended the first call. An Internet search did not provide the company name but did confirm that the number belongs to a landline in XXXX, MN. I called the number and a male said " this is XXXX and this is a monitored and recorded call. '' I told him I needed the company name before filing a regulatory complaint due to his colleague refusing to give me that information. He said " You have called XXXX XXXX XXXX. '' I thanked him and disconnected.

Received XXXX services from XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX received in XX/XX/XXXX did not appear to have proper insurance reimbursement and network adjustment through XXXX. Contacted XXXX and provider. XXXX response was unclear but blocked further inquiry. Began monthly letters to provider ( XXXX XXXX ) asking for clarification of charges. Provider only responded with additional invoices which had different amounts almost monthly. Received occasional phone calls from provider rep who agreed to look into the account but never submitted requested information. Engaged a medical billing dispute firm in XX/XX/XXXX. They also did not get the requested information. Today we received a notice from a collection agency in Wisconsin who asserted that they had been retained to collect the amount due, now shown as {$2100.00}. We had not been advised that this action was pending. Sent certified letter to that collection agency stating that the account is and has been in dispute since XX/XX/XXXX. We are basically being asked to pay an amount that they say is due without providing any substantiation. We are able to pay and have offered to do so with validation of the amount due. Total lack of response and responsibility by provider. May simply be a matter of how the charges were coded for insurance reimbursement ; but they have been unwilling to take necessary steps or provide the information that we requested.

My credit score was recently reduced from a creditor claiming that I owe money regarding a traffic citation. I had made disputes on my report regarding several alleged citations issued by the state of Wisconsin and was removed from my credit report. 2 months later, a new collection agency appeared to have maid another claim. At no point had I ever made a promise to pay to the state of Wisconsin either through verbal or contractual agreements. I would also like to add, throughout the last 10 years these creditors have continuously reported to the credit bureau 's for citations that have been paid. When asked why it had even reached a collection agency being the citations were paid on-time, the response was " because you did n't pay a {$5.00} fee along with the citation. '' This includes XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This has been going on with the state of Wisconsin for MANY years now. I ca n't help but feel that I have been treated unfairly by the state as well as their creditors. These traffic citations has not only hurt my driving record, my credit report as well as my occupations. At what point is this punishment enough? These citations have dramatically impacted the quality of my life ... .. A TRAFFIC CITATION. My credit score dropped XXXX points from this most recent attack. I really had high hopes in creating a better financial profile for myself being I 'm going into accounting.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a phone call from State Collections about a debt. They stated I owed {$280.00}. I asked who the original biller was and what the charges were for. They stated XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). I told them that that was a medical billing company and not the original biller, I wanted all the info. I was put on hold for a long time and the woman basically wouldn't tell me anything else. She finally said she would mail me all the info, as I wanted it. Didn't hear anything about it again so thought it was just some scam. On XX/XX/XXXX I FINALLY received info from them on what the bills were pertaining to. Not only did they NOT include any info on debt dispute ( or the fact that I have to do it within 30 days ) they also didn't even send the correct information. The bill verifications they sent only added up to {$100.00}. I finally called them to see what was going on as every time I hear from them I either don't get information or don't get correct information. Now, suddenly there were " missing pages '' they didn't send. They could send it if I wanted. I told them they also did not send ANY information on the debt dispute that I am allowed. She says she is not required to but I can get it if I want. They are supposedly sending me copies of these. Since it took over 3 months to get the previous info, I have very little faith in anything they state they will send.

Finally, on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX issued a letter by postal mail and I received it on XX/XX/XXXX. It said that based on the information that I submitted with my application for financial assistance for my outstanding balance was reduced by 100 %. I had been granted full financial assistance with 100 % reduction on hospital bills. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received and email from XXXX XXXX, letting me know that an adverse action was reported on my credit report. After accessing the report, I found that STATE collection agency had reported this account as unpaid and and still outstanding. Immediately, I filed a dispute with XXXX and included documentation that should have proven the XXXX balance. However, STATE insists that their records are correct and the balance is still outstanding. On XX/XX/XXXX, I again checked my credit for a different reason and still saw that the negative collections mark from XXXX still existed on my report. Again, I disputed it with XXXX, this time including the letter that I had been sent from the hospital, proving my 100 % reduction for the balance. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received the results of the XX/XX/XXXX dispute, and again, XXXX maintains that the balance is still unpaid and outstanding. I do not know how to clear my name of this collection action. The bill has been reduced by XXXX XXXX XXXX. I will provide all documentation proving that fact.

This complaint is related to a previous complaint I forwarded to you on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX under Case Number XXXX, XXXX & XXXX. The same collection agency, State Collection and XXXX XXXX XXXX are now sending me, collection notices for services I received from XXXX XXXX on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. I paid the amount my insurance did not pay in the amount of {$76.00} on XXXX XXXX, XXXX in the amount of {$390.00} which included the amount I owed for my mastectomy at the same hospital on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. This check cleared XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. The check is made payable to XXXX XXXX for services rendered on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. A copy of the cleared check was sent to XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX, XXXX and a copy was later sent to State Collection Agency, so there is no reason they should be harassing me over these charges. This is only a continued harassment over the charges I have proven we do not owe on my husband via my previous notices to you. The physical and mental toll of this harassment is taking it 's toll on me and my husband and I feel they are completely out of line and that their actions are punitive. I have notified them repeatedly that I am charging them for the time I have had to invest in responding to these unowed charges and my time charges alone are currently at {$720.00}. This does not include processing fees as well as punitive damages.

First, this company ( state Collection ) is reporting multiple amounts on my credit report from the SAME medical office. XXXX XXXX XXXX is the original creditor. I have been paying them XXXX small amounts and filed for financial assistance in XXXX, and again in XXXX. NEVER heard back. The next thing you know, I see that State collection has me reported for the following amounts on my credit reports. - {$970.00} - {$610.00} - {$430.00} - {$200.00} - {$180.00} - {$150.00} - {$110.00} - {$86.00} - {$70.00} What XXXX does is they bill you one large amount on one bill. As you pay it down they apply the money to the MOST RECENT date of service then they charge off each date of service separately to make it more of a hit on your insurance. I applied for financial assistance. I am on XXXX. I am struggling. I do not need this from either State Collections or XXXX. Please investigate this as this is how they operate. I do not agree with these dollar amounts. I ased State Collection for a DETAILED statement when I got a letter from them as I did not agree with it. No response at all. Now it is all over my credit report on 9 different lines! This needs to be removed off of my credit reports and XXXX needs to respond to my financial assistance request. I am attaching a debt validation letter mailed to statewide collections on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX

Dear Officer, the original creditor, XXXX XXXX XXXX, never submitted a statement nor any reminder for a medical service provided to me on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX despite other similar statements were duly received, including a statement dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX related to other services also provided on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX.

Today, I received a letter dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX from State Collection Service requesting a payment of {$590.00}. In addition, please note that XXXX XXXX XXXX has yet to provide a statement for the XXXX/XXXX/XXXX service and for services at a later date, making me suspicious that this is a recurring practice.

A company illegally shared my medical information with a third party ( debt collector ) without my consent. They illegally have done it already and I had it removed from my credit report. The first time they did it, they used XXXX XXXX XXXX, Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, IN XXXX, and destroyed my credit report/ and score. Now they used STATE COLLECTION SERVICE, account number on one of the credit bureaus XXXX. Both time they are asking for a different amount of money. Highly illegal, strike three. They are trying to intimidate me with phone calls and using " Collection Department / Agency / Attorney " on my credit report. Their Contact information is listed below. I am in the process of rebuilding my credit and they illegally flagged my account and dropped my credit score 32 points. That's very unfair and highly illegal. I have written letters to the debt collection agency, The Company that hired them ( XXXX XXXX ) to perform an illegal act, and the three major credit bureaus, asking them for collection validation, HIPPA Violation Warning, and disputing their claims ; to which I have received no response. Can you help a struggling single father in a time of extreme crisis? Thanks for your time. STATE COLLECTION SERVICE XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, WIXXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX

I am contesting this charge because XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX neglected to secure an insurance referral before the appointment. They never reached out to me to obtain this referral on my own, therefore I was under the impression as before that they would handle this referral between them and my insurance company. I was then charged as an out-of-network patient because of a lack of a referral. Then, based on the suggestion of my insurance company, I filed an appeal with XXXX to investigate why no insurance referral was on file in XXXX. The business office informed me that I would receive a response within 30 days which never happened, and upon my follow up calls with XXXX they claimed there was no record of an appeal. I attribute this to their own negligence. The collections agency has neglected to ever inform me of the outcome of the second appeal that I filed with them, and continue to notify me that the amount is owed. The company that owns my debt now is the State Collection Service. It should also be noted that I already paid the XXXX copay on XX/XX/2022, the date of my appointment. Upon making the payment I was not informed that an insurance referral had not been obtained. This is the correct and final amount that I should have owed for this appointment, as it was in-network.

Good morning I would actually like to petition the CFPB to make changes to the current law about demand letters. If a collection agency buys your debt and they legally own that debt and the debt is no longer owned by the original creditor, the debt collection agency should be required to send you an itemized bill of ALL debts in your name owned by them not just per the one creditor. I.e I received a letter from State Collections Agency saying I owe {$31.00} due to an unpaid XXXX XXXX bill. I call to make payment and the debt collector says no no no, you owe 8-9 different accounts and the balance of the accounts total are {$810.00}. Well if the creditor now owns all of these debts, you need to send a bill as you would receive from your wireless company or electric company saying this is what you were billed for this is your total balance- they dont just mail you a partial balance owed and then you call in and it be ok to say no you owe {$400.00} instead of {$100.00} like you thought. That is illegal and predatory practices and this actually needs to go to court. You dont get a half bill for any other debt you owe to a company. If you owe a certain debt collection agency {$900.00} you should receive an itemized bill for {$900.00} not one individual bill at a time to be FAIR.

I was told a needed a nebulizer for a company called XXXX XXXX. I picked up the nebulizer and I was never given any training or told that I was just leasing the nebulizer. nothing was explained to me by the company. I have been getting bills for XXXX every month for more than 2 years now. I have insurance I was never told how the billing works. I have tried to contact them and I have never had a conversation with them. I stopped paying because I thought this charge was fraudulent. I also filed a complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX against them. Since I could never get anyone to contact me I stopped paying. They now are sending these XXXX charges to a collection agency called state collection service. Numerous attempts to contact them and no response. I pay the XXXX because I do not want to mess up my credit. These companies are predatory and they do not care about patient care. I did not even need the nebulizer. I do not have it any more I didn't not know I didn't own it. when I moved I got rid of it. Now I guess I will be charged in perpetuity for this nebulizer I didn't need. I would like to get closure for this and put both these predatory companies in my rear view. I am now filing complaints against them both because they have not tried to reach out and fix this problem

I am in the beginning of a medical malpractice case with mediation in process. Part of the case was charged for medical bills for the initial XXXX that severed my XXXX and the 8 months of ongoing procedures, hospital stays, XXXX, doctors visits, etc. The hospital sent all medical bills to collections which I paid to avoid further injury from the malpractice on XX/XX/2018. I received another debt collection letter on XX/XX/2018 for the amount of {$3300.00}. All of which had been paid for previously for every date listed and every amount listed. I have the credit cards receipts as well as the payment confirmation from the website in the form of screenshots. I am not allowed, by law, to contact the hospital with anything including my case and this is part of it. I feel threatened and intimidated now. That debt was paid even though it shouldve been held once the proceedings of mediation were initiated. I will not have my tax refund or home etc be threatened over a best firstly in the process of litigation and secondary one that has been paid in full. The hospital in question that is violating my rights by sending the debt is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX, WI. The State Collection Agency violating my rights is State Collection Services Inc.

Found a medical bill collections on my credit report, Sent to collections by XXXX XXXX it was not for me and nor was I responsible for any bill outstanding with them. They placed a bill in my name and sent the bills to an address I had 8 years ago, even though I was a current patient who had an account with current info on it. It was not my bill, it was someone else 's services and I never received a bill, nor statement it was in collections. I have been trying for over 3 months to get it off my credit report and getting the run around from XXXX, State Collections Agency and Equifax. I had wanted to refinance my home, and this is causing months and months of delay and a financial nightmare. Not XXXX of them claim responsibility, but all state it should not be on there ... .They guaranteed me it would be resolved in XX/XX/2016 it has not. XXXX acknowledged the bill was not mine but refuse to provide me with a letter stating that they billed me in error, sent it to a wrong address and admit they made a mistake. The collections agency states they sent notice to the credit bureaus for removal, but it is not removed. XXXX states it is the collections fault, the collections agency states it is Equifax 's fault ... but no one corrected it.

This concerns a debt reporting by XXXX and the University XXXX. It began with an attempt to collect a debt that I had paid in the amount of Apporx. {$70.00}. I submitted my proof. Then somehow with out a billing XXXX sent notices that {$38.00} ( approx ) was due with NO PROOF. Just letters. I spoke with XXXX today upon learning that they had reported the {$38.00} to the credit reporting agencies. This XXXX item has signifiicantly effected my score. So I asked XXXX if I were to pay the bill would they asked that the {$38.00} be removed. They said no. I aaaked to speak to a supervisor and was sent to VM. No return call at this time. However State Wide told me that there was no bill for the amount they had reported to the Agencies. And they had no bill for this amount came from their client, The XXXX billlinh system in convoluted and difficult to follow. The bills dont carrry an account number or an invoice number that you can track. Each bill, even rebills all carry a separate " MRN '' number.You are not sure where rhe bills, some the same amount, are rebill and separate billings. The XXXX billing / collections staff are unhelpful. Some work at home. i received a call from a XXXX employee at XXXX on a Saturday morning.

A medical company I am a client of XXXX XXXX has claimed for some time that XXXX owe them money, but can never say what for. So because I continued to challenge them on the issue, they sent their " alleged : debt to a company called State Collections. They started calling me. The first call was a live person, who demanded to know all my personal information. When I refused, she said that I would be sued if I did not pay the debt. I told her she would have to send a letter stating who they were, who they were collecting for, and how much the alleged debt is for. So far they refused, and since I did not handle this over the phone they placed it on my credit. Now I receive " robo calls '' from State Collections daily. No person on the other end, just a message that they are debt collectors. I am trying to get this removed from my credit, and I have complained to the local XXXX about XXXX XXXX. State Collections have called before XXXX and after XXXX on several occasions, XXXX time being called as early as XXXX and as late as XXXX. I need these people to follow the law, and at the very least, send a letter stating their purpose so I can respond. Calling them back does not result in any communication either. You sit on hold forever.

I am filing a complaint against State Collection Services, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX wi, phone XXXX. State Collection Services placed a derogatory item on my credit report XX/XX/XXXX.I have never received any correspondence, bills, notices, phone calls, or any other attempt to reach me before this action took place. I called State Collection Services and they informed me that it was for a medical bill, from XX/XX/XXXX. They could not verify the details. I have been at the same address for XXXX, same phone for at least 10yrs, and nothing was sent to me regarding this Item. I have requested Validation of the Claim from both the Collection company and XXXX. The action of affecting my credit rating without making a reasonable attempt to make any contact seems at the very least inappropriate and at its worst- likely unlawful. In speaking with the representative from State Collection Services, I was able to learn that the claim is a medical claim, but they could not provide any further documentation. They would have to request that information. It seems that to put an item on a credit report without a satisfactory attempt to reach me and without having the details of the claim, should be brought to your attention. thank your

As of XXXX XXXX, State Collection Service , Inc. is still furnishing my consumer report with a derogatory mark. Upon, further research, this account was transferred/sold and I am no longer responsible for the account. I sent State Collection Service, Inc an Affidavit of truth, Cease and Desist, and Debt Validation letter on XX/XX/2021. On XX/XX/2021 I received an itemized statement of medical services which I assume is the debt collector 's attempt to provide the " debt validation '' I requested. A bill without a signature DOES NOT validate the debt and anybody can send a bill and say it is mine. According to FDCPA, State Collection Service , Inc is in violation of 15 USC 1692b ( 2 ), 15 USC 1692b ( 5 ), 15 USC 1692d ( 1 ). Enforcement of penalties against State Collection Service , Inc is covered under the penalty rules of the Omnibus Final Rule, FCRA, and FACTA. As a consumer I am requesting his account be removed from XXXX XXXX and XXXX immediately and State Collection Service , Inc send payment for the violations I presented. If this is not resolved within the next 5 business days, I will file charges. I have been dealing with this entirely too long and will no longer tolerate this blatant violation of my rights.

On my XXXX XXXX account I have an outstanding debt with the State of Wisconsin Public Defenders Office. I did not receive notice from State Collection Service Inc. I'm time to dispute.The roomate I just kicked ouerdsyt had the letter in his room for some reason. I found it yesterday. For one : I never received the required payment envelopes except on one occasion. Made a partial payment, never received notice of balance due. I forgot about the obligation cause I XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. According to them there was 5 lawyers assigned to me. I can find only 4 in my court records. In one case I had 2, which I was unaware of, did not request two, and there was no need for one. They were worthless. They failed to provide defense for a misuse of justice. Were I'll prepared and could provide no argument for the judge. Another lawyer I was assigned, I was unaware of. It was for a XXXX - breaking a window. I would never request a lawyer for that. I didn't need or use their help. Just made my plea and accepted my fine. Around {$55.00}? Not worth having a lawyer. So, I dispute these charges because they are false, forced on me, failed to perform their job, excessive to have 2 lawyers - which was done without my permission.

received noticed of unpaid medical bill from debt collector ( not sure when first received - sometime this year XX/XX/XXXX ). possibly received from State Collection Service in WI.

debt is from services received from XXXX XXXX of Wisconsin. date of service XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX.

we would gladly pay any amount owed however we never received any bills from the hospital. naturally upon receiving the debt notice i contacted XXXX immediately to try find out any information regarding the service etc. At that time they acknowledged that they had the incorrect address on file and perhaps the reason why we never received any bills. they told me they would send the information to the correct address.

however after not receiving i contacted them again ( repeatedly ) only to be told that they would not provide any information, that they had turned the debt over to state collection service and i could only discuss with them.

again, have absolutely no problem paying this bill. first however i never received any bills in the first place and second obviously i need detailed information as to what i 'm being billed for. i have an excellent credit score.

thank you, XXXX XXXX

I incurred a bill at XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) in XXXX of XXXX. The billing was incorrect in that about a {$9000.00} insurance payment had not been applied. After I called and spoke with a representative of XXXX in mid XXXX, the insurance info was re-submitted and the remainder was my portion of the bill to pay. I made bi-weekly payments until XX/XX/XXXX when I paid the remainder of the bill ( {$100.00} ) in full. XXXX never sent me any notice stating that my account was sent to a collection agency. In fact, my balance was still on the website where my payments were received and as stated, I was still making payments on the balance of over {$200.00} dollars, bi-weekly. I did get a letter from a collection agency but I disregarded it because the balance was incorrect, I never received notice about my balance going to collections, I had never heard of State Collection Services and it looked like a scheme to impersonate a non-existent state agency, and XXXX was still showing the correct balance and accepting my regular payments. XXXX received the last payment on XX/XX/XXXX and I received a credit monitoring alert today, XX/XX/XXXX that a collection agency has posted to my account.

I dispute this debt because my XXXX machine is paid off completely and has been over-billed and paid for based on previous correspondence with XXXX and XXXX XXXX. This was paid for in 2013 and now all of the sudden they are trying to get us to pay for it again. XXXX XXXX confirmed that the XXXX rental was converted to a purchase on XXXX/XXXX/2013 and was paid off, at most I would ever owe the insured percentage not covered by insurance which would be less than or equal to {$83.00}. This amount was covered by my original payment to you. This information was verified on XXXX separate occasions by XXXX XXXX employees XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. Furthermore, my {$500.00} deductible was met after 3 months of rental payments and thus the remaining payments should have been billed to and paid by my insurance, XXXX per their policy and the pre-authorized agreement. I have spoken to this company multiple times and they have stated they will resolve the issue and instead of resolution I get another bill and it has been sold to a debt collection agency. This is beyond unprofessional and is a fraudulent attempt to steal more money from myself and the insurance company.

XXXX XXXX XXXX is collection on behalf of XXXX XXXX. I do not disagree that the debt is likely valid and I will settle via XXXX. This company is spoofing its outgoing phone numbers to appear to be different phone numbers in WI. EX : XXXX called me at XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The actual phone number for this company is XXXX. In addition, when called on XX/XX/XXXX by this company I answered this WI phone number. They asked me to verify my information, even though they had called me via a dialer. I asked if this was an attempt to collect a debt because via my FDCPA rights they are required to tell me this is an attempt to collect a debt regardless of who is on the phone. They refused to tell me what company was calling or why, including the supervisor I was transferred to despite my protections under FDCPA. In addition, when I finally called back and verified, they did not tell me that I could dispute the debt or that I could request the name and address of the original creditor, which is part of my protection under the law. They gave the disclaimer, said they were collecting from XXXX a $ 100ish amount. And asked how I would like to pay.

I lost my son last year to an overdose. I admit there is a hospital bill. This company State Collection Services and their CEO have been issuing hits against my credit weekly over 6 times in XXXX alone for the same {$2200.00} doctors bill. The first 5 times they reported the account was in collection the amount owed was false. I filed a dispute via XXXX and the amount was dropped over {$1000.00} only after XXXX did the research. XXXX agrees that there is not a real reasonable explanation for them to list this debt so many times a month ( sometime twice a week ) and they speculate that it is purely punitive in nature. I do not dispute the debt. I dispute their practice of making XXXXne bill seem as though it is late every week. This is not true misleading and to my understanding against the law. This week State Collections has reported the same debt " in collections '' twice to the three credit bureaus. I am requesting that you take action against this company and their CEO XXXX XXXX. In my opinion XXXX XXXX is human garbage for the way that he has treated me in this terrible time of my life.

Under Texas Finance Code 392.202 for debt validation I have had my rights as a Texas consumer violated and ignored. I sent State Collection Services a debt validation letter to confirm this debt is mine and they ignored my request. Under the current law,30 days should be enough time to validate such requests. I mailed the above named company XXXX letter on XXXX/XXXX/15, they received and signed for the letter on XXXX/XXXX/15. They violated my request in XXXX ways. XXXX, for ignoring my request, and XXXX, for continued attempt to collect on this debt by actively reporting to the XXXX major Credit Bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ). There is plenty of supporting case law to back this claim up, that actively reporting to the bureau 's is in deed a form of debt collection. I have not received any info from this collection agency to prove I owe this debt. I find it malicious, and I feel I have been taking advantage of by State Collection Services and I would like this collection removed and deleted from all XXXX credit bureau 's. I have uploaded supporting documents to help prove my case. Thank you

I believe this collection company called State Collection Services Inc. violated the Fair Debt Collection practices act by attempting to collect a debt, which should be covered by my insurance 100 %. The collection company attempted to collect a debt using an automated service or robotic form of contact, by Text message, which occurred on Friday, XX/XX/2021. I had called the company and asked for a statement of charges, which has alluded me to believe that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX shared my personal medical information which is located in Missouri violated my right to medical privacy under HIPAA. I do not owe the debt, and I will also like to include that I called my Insurance company, on Friday, XX/XX/2021, and they stated that XXXX XXXX never submitted the claim to my insurance. The collection agency stated that my insurance paid a portion and maybe I should call my insurance. My Insurance company has implicitly stated that XXXX XXXX never sent the claim to be paid. The collection agency also lied to collect a debt. I believe these are unfair practices and should be dealt with immediately

In XX/XX/2019 State Collection Service placed a debt on all three credit bureaus. I recently sent State Collection Service a letter asking for validation of the alleged debt amounting to {$340.00}. State Collection Service did not provide any documents or evidence to validate the account, they did not even respond to my letter that I sent them. This company kept this account on my XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit reports despite providing any validation of this debt. Again, State Collection Service did not provide any documents or evidence to validate the account and ignored my request for them. Under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act, I have the right to request validation of the debt, therefore I am requesting that you investigate this matter and delete this account from my XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX credit reports or provide me with PHYSICAL PROOF, such as a signed legal binding contract of the debt. I have attached the letter that I sent to State Collection Service back in XX/XX/XXXX but again never received a response from them. Your immediate response will be greatly appreciated.

Had a medical bill of {$730.00} from XXXX XXXX hospital in XXXX, Ga. The bill was sent to collections mid XX/XX/XXXX. The collection agency is called State Collection Service in XXXX Wisconsin. I paid off the {$730.00} in XX/XX/XXXX with my HSA. I have the proof in my statements. For some reason, in XX/XX/XXXX, after the bill was already paid in full, XXXX XXXX hospital sent the bill to a SECOND collection agency ( called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. In XXXX, FL. ). This is now on my credit report, negatively affecting my credit, dropping my score quickly. I've made numerous calls between the hospital and the collection agency, and no one will listen to me. State Collection Service told me they show where I paid the bill XX/XX/XXXX, but that it's the hospital 's responsibility to fix it, not theirs. XXXX XXXX says they show no record of the bill being paid. They say the Collecting agency needs to report to them that the bill was paid. One keeps sending me back to the other and neither will listen or help. While all of this is happening, my credit score continues to suffer.

I received a letter on XX/XX/2019 from State Collection Services, stating that they were collecting on a debt that I allegedly owe in the amount of {$750.00}. I sent them a request for verification on XX/XX/2019 ( copy attached ). In return, I was mailed a letter that provided no additional information ( copy attached ) and only gave the name of the provider ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) which I already had. I am not aware of any past due accounts with that provider, and would like State Collection Services to verify whether or not this debt is valid, and belongs to me, as is prescribed by law. Without verification, I can not, and will not hand over money to a company Ive never heard of. In addition, I was called at least once per day seemingly more than once per day on some days. They even used a phone number in my local area code once a tactic called spoofing used by scammers. This was quite frustrating and bordered on, if not qualified as, harassment. Finally, when I told them that I prefer written correspondence, and the calls stopped for some time.

Performed a routine, preventative XXXX in XX/XX/2022, at XXXX XXXX. XXXX are done every couple of years as a routine preventative measure for those with XXXX XXXX, including myself. There was no emergency at the time, and this was not an ER visit. Had active medical insurance at the time under XXXX. XXXX terms and conditions advertised 100 % coverage of preventative services. XXXX had also sent me written communication saying the XXXX was covered under my insurance and pre-approved. A few months later, XXXX had only paid a portion of the amount to XXXX XXXX ( rather than 100 % ), and claimed in communications that the service was not preventative, leaving me with a balance of $ XXXX. XXXX XXXX claimed in communications they had billed it as preventative. XXXX XXXX was unwilling to work with me, and referred it to State Collection Service , Inc., a debt collector. I responded to the debt collector disputing the debt, saying it is not my debt, and that they should collect the amount from XXXX. They are still trying to collect from me.

State Collection Services sent me a notice regarding medial bills from XXXX. We informed them that XXXX was provided the wrong provider number and had to resubmit the insurance claims to insurance payer XXXX in XX/XX/2017. Instead of sending us the updated statements XXXX sent them back to State Collections Services. In XX/XX/2017 My husband contacted XXXX in regards to the update statements. XXXX mailed us all the updated statements on or about XX/XX/2017. We have been sending the final payment for the updated bills to XXXX and they have been accepting payment. Today XX/XX/2017 XXXX sent me a payment regarding a balance of XXXX. The statement provided evidence that a payment was recently made by us for XXXX, but we still received a collection notice from State Collection Services for the same amount. XXXX is allowing us to pay the balances off, but we are still receiving notices from the collection company. In addition XXXX has also sent these same bills to a second collection company called XXXX for Collections.

In XXXX 2017, I received a debt collection letter from State Collection Service , Inc., for {$8.00}. I immediately called the debt co llector and asked what this amount was for. Customer rep said if I owned a XXXX XXXX . I said no. She then said Okay, sorry to bother you. In XXXX 2017, I rece ived another debt collection letter from the same company but this time saying I owe {$93.00}. I immediately sent them a Debt dispute letter requesting they provide proof it is my debt by sending me signed contract agreement, detailed and explanation of how they came about this amount. On XXXX XXXX , 2017, the y respnded to my letter and failed to provide me the information I requested to validate the debt. It still does not show how they came about this amount and any signed contract that I agreed to pay this amount. And now they are claiming I owe {$110.00}. This company is fraudulently trying to collect money from me. They keep changing the debt amount and failed to provide proof it is my debt.

I made settlement with collection agency and paid the agreed amount. The agency after this, reported the XXXX Credit Bureau that I have a balance of the remaining amount. It dropped my score for almost XXXX points. When I called the agency to find out why they did it, they have no valid answer. I requested to speak with the supervisor, but he wo n't talk to me. I am planning to buy home soon, but now due to this I have to wait for months before my score gets up. I am really frustrated and request you guys to ask this collection agency why they did this. The debt is about three years old. They never contacted me. Recently, like they called me a month ago, and I settled the debt. During the last three or more years the agency never reported this debt this to any Credit bureau, but as soon as I settled this this debt they reported to the Credit bureau that this is a collection account. I really do n't understand this. All I can think is sheer negligence, incompetence, and carelessness on the part of the agency

XXXX XXXX XXXX Hospital in XXXX XXXX Colorado flatly refused to submit a request for payment to XXXX, even though it was thoroughly explained it was set up as a secondary form of payment. Previously they have a debt that was paid by workmens compensation as still owed also. They were repeatedly told to take this matter to the XXXX county court if they wanted to prove their claim, and neglected to do so. State Collection in Wisconsin then made false claims about owing this debt, and was also informed about their " CLIENTS '', willful neglect to use the proper channels to answer why they neglect to submit payment to an authorized provider. and to take it to the proper court in Colorado, if they wanted to establish any claim, and they also neglected to obey the law, instead slandering me with their coconspirators XXXX and XXXX, whom willfully and knowingly post these slanderous statements, even though they were informed about this failing to follow the requirements of the Law.

I have disputed this account with the credit bureaus on several occasions as well as disputed with State Collection Service. This company continues to report this unverifiable, inaccurate account on my reports. I requested debt validation in XX/XX/2016, to no avail. This company did not send me any documents I requested that substantiated a summary of all account activities, including all payments made, copies of charge slips, invoices or any other documents proving my indebtedness, nor did they send me copies of all documents sent to me regarding this account, copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what they say I owe them, as well as prove the statute of limitations has not expired on this account. See attached documentation. The documents sent to me from this company DO NOT VALIDATE THIS DEBT AS BELONGING TO ME. Since this third party collection company is unable to validate the debt, this item must be deleted from my report immediately.

I pay XXXX {$250.00} a month on a payment plan between my son and I. On numerous occasions, I would get excess bills or told I owed more than once in a monthly cycle. They take the money directly from my account automatically. Not once have I received a bill for what the collection agency is trying to say I owe. When I call XXXX, they stated I owed 3 different amounts and all went to the collection agency. When I look at the statements, none of them reflect the charges. I only received one bill from collections yet they state their are 3 different ones. If I am paying on a plan with the same company and have been for two years straight, how is it possible they can do this? I call and ask for statements showing the amounts and that they sent them to me. I still have no statements, no calls, no emails and nothing on my XXXX app showing the amounts. This should be completely illegal. I am a newly single mother with no help from the childs father.

In XXXX 2016, I submitted a payment in full for the amount of {$490.00} from my XXXX card. I received a call stating that XXXX did not allow collection companies to charge customer accounts. I called XXXX and they stated there was no reason they would refuse to pay the account was in good standing and credit was available. I submitted {$250.00} from my debit card. I got another call and this time the rep said that they did not accept XXXX cards as payment contrary to the last rep that said they tried to run the card and the authorization failed. This company lied and now it XX/XX/XXXX and this should have all been resolved in XX/XX/XXXX. They are destroying credit by falsely refusing to apply payment. By Illinois UCC the refusal to accept payment for {$490.00} ( the full amount owed ) is grounds for dismissing the debt in the amount of the attempted payment. By law I should owe nothing and they should have to refund my {$250.00}.

State Collection Services sent a collection letter to my father 's address for {$25.00}. I received recorded phone messages, even when I actually answered the phone, making me believe this agency was phishing and it was a scam. I confirmed twice with the provider that that fee was already settled, that I owed nothing. State Collection services told me, falsely, today, that the provider would not know if the fee was still owed because their account would be closed. On a previous call, they told me they would contact the provider. They did not do so. The provider confirmed today that they never work with State Collection Services and that this likely a scam. State Collection gave their phone as XXXX. Their mailing address is XXXX XXXX, XXXX, WI, XXXX, their physical address is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, WI, XXXX

This approval was based on the 6 months long processing of my application after I submitted all required information, all of which was factual and accurate. On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX demanded that I begin the financial assistance program anew, thereby voiding my previously approved 100 % discount despite not having any legal justification to demand such since I already provided complete and accurate information upon which the 100 % discount was based. On XX/XX/XXXX State Collection Services , inc. claimed that I have unpaid debt owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I promptly disputed this false claim. On XX/XX/XXXX State Collection Services , inc. acknowledged my dispute and attempted to validate a debt which I don't owe. As they will place said debt on my credit profile I'm forced to take action to remedy this grievous error.

I also told her that I never received and early warning notice in reference to neither of the bills, therefore not giving me a chance to validate the debt.

I did not receive anything back from this company in the 30 days their are allowed by law to respond and instead they immediately contacted the credit reporting agencies and put the unverified, disputed debt on my credit report. I have certified receipts showing that I needed more information to validate these charges.

Per my bank, my check for payment of this account was cashed by the hospital on XX/XX/2016. I spoke to XXXX at State Collection Service and stated these facts. Her response was if the hospital had received payment from me on XX/XX/2016 then they would not have reported it to State Collection Service Inc.

The letters I sent to them were dated XX/XX/2021, and the final letter was sent on XX/XX/2021. They continue to report the unverified accounts to the credit bureaus. This account is a fraudulent account and without verification is under State and Federal violation. This should be REMOVED from ALL CREDIT BUREAUS. I have tried many times for State Collection Service to provide me with the contract with my signature on it. They continue to ignore my request.

State Collection Service , Inc. initially mailed me on XX/XX/XXXX which was received on XX/XX/XXXX with a letter telling me I had 2 accounts each of {$2100.00}, that were in collections with them. This was the first contact I had had with them. I sent them a certified debt verification letter that was received by XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to which State collections never responded to verify the debt, leaving themselves open to litigation. On XX/XX/XXXX another letter was sent by State Collections which was received by me on XX/XX/XXXX informing me that this unverified debt is seriously delinquent. I believe the debt to which they are referring to is part of a debt currently being disputed in court with both the insurance company and provider and will soon be dismissed entirely.

XXXX provides me with XXXX and other medical products and services. I am covered by medicare and I carry a medicare supplement to cover all co-pays, etc. I am XXXX % insured. XXXX claims unpaid balances from XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. They never asked me for payment. My first notice of this was thru the collection agency letter ( attached ) which arrived on XX/XX/XXXX. State Collection infers the possibility of referring my name to a credit bureau if I do not pay these amounts. I have spoken to Medicare and found that the only XX/XX/XXXX claim was paid in full on XXXX/XXXX/2014 and forwarded to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for payment of the patient responsibility portion. XXXX claims that the XX/XX/XXXX and the XX/XX/XXXX bills were duplicate billings and were denied.

Just got a notice from my credit monitoring service that a new debt was attached to my credit report. I immediately disputed it online through XXXX and they sent me an email the very next day that said the investigation was complete. I find that very hard to believe there was any 'investigation ' at all, given that I had commented that the debt was 'fraud ' and does not belong to me. How was this debt verified as belonging to me in XXXX day, and how was it 'verified ' if it is n't mine? I do not owe this company money, and this debt is fraudulent. I have a very common name and do n't understand how something can attach to my report without proof of it being mine!!! I need this item completely deleted from XXXX and any other reporting agency, as this debt is fraudulent!!!

I sent a letter to State Collection Service Inc. at the beginning of XXXX in response to a collection letter they sent me. The letter they sent was the first one they sent. Days later the debt collection was on my credit report before even trying to resolve the matter. If giving a chance, then I could have provided them with my insurance providers information. I also contacted my insurance provider XXXX XXXX XXXX to make sure they would take care of the bill being that I didnt have my card at the visit. So I sent a letter asking for validation not verification. They responded with a doctor bill for XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of XXXX XXXX la. I sent back a copy of my insurance card an a letter asking them to remove their inaccurate information from all my reports

State Collection Services Inc This company sold a debt I paid. I provided the proof that I paid this and they did not close it. Instead, they sold the debt to another company. I spoke to them many times and they verified the debt was paid, but still sold it to another company. It has been a nightmare for 3 years now. When I requested a letter, they never sent one. This company verified it was paid, and said the letters I got from the other debt collectors was probably from another debt. I have never owed another debt in my life. It is for the same debt, same date, same amount. Instead of closing out the debt properly, they sold it and then refuse to take responsibility and instead, insinuate that I owe money to other companies. This is unethical and insulting.

Original creditor was XXXX XXXX for a XXXX XXXX taken on XX/XX/18. The requisition letter specifically indicates XXXX was to charge the provider directly, XXXX XXXX XXXX. Instead of billing XXXX as they should have, they attempted to bill my insurance, which was likely an old insurance carrier they had in their system. According to XXXX, XXXX kept making billing mistakes and so they stopped sending paper bills to XXXX clients altogether around this time. Either way, this was reported in XX/XX/XXXX of this year. When I found out, I notified XXXX, XXXX, and the collection agency that it was in error. The error was confirmed by both XXXX and XXXX - this bill was not owed by me ever. The account is marked as closed but it should be completely removed.

The debt is inaccurate. Hospital incorrectly billed wrong insurance although I gave them updated insurance information for services in XX/XX/2019. I was unknowingly left stuck with a huge bill of {$6900.00} that my insurance would have covered and left me with a small deductible. Ive spoken with State Collections agency about the error. They lured me into making a monthly agreement to supposedly protect my credit, until I Can get the hospital to correct the error with a promise to not flag my credit as long as an agreement was in place. However, my credit was flagged although I paid as promised and XXXX XXXX XXXX will not correct the error because they said they no longer own the debt and it can only be resolved with State Collections Agency.

I sent a letter on XX/XX/2019 notifying them that the debt is in dispute and to cease collection efforts, until the debt is validated. It is my belief that the collection company has illegally continued to collect on a debt which has not been verified, after they received a notice to cease collection. This has been done by putting it on my credit report, thereby damaging my credit and potentially forcing me to pay it off in order to receive a loan from future lenders. This company has broken the law by not providing a verified debt to collect upon after they have been informed to cease their collection efforts.

I am in the beginning of a mortgage re-fi. I mailed a dispute letter to clear up several inaccurate items on my credit XX/XX/2019. Then this mysterious collection appears on my credit? I was never, ever notified by mail about this medical issue from State Collection Service. I mailed both dispute letters to all CRAs and a direct debt validation letter to State Collection on XX/XX/2019. The debt was validated on XXXX, deleted off XXXX, I do not believe it was ever reported on XXXX. Yet, the direct furnisher letter was never answered? I believe from my credit reading that validating a CRA dispute is a violation until the direct furnisher letter has been verified and a response has been mailed to the person disputing.

When I finally got through they wanted my full name, date of birth and address. That sounds super scammer. That sounds like every other scammer that calls. I said if I have a debt with you can you pull it by my name. The lady was super rude. Didn't say this is an attempt to collect a debt. I still have no idea if this is legit or not.

When I noticed one of them, and before the other one appeared, I attempted to resolve the matter by setting up a payment arrangement. I provided my banking information to this agency but there were no debits from my account I did everything I could possibly do to prevent the listing from hitting my credit report but this agency failed to start the payment arrangement prior to listing. I want these debts off of my credit report because I made every attempt to pay prior to listing.

I received a letter from State Collection Service informing me they are handling the collection of a debt. However, after reviewing my records, I am unable to find any documentation of any contractual relationship between State Collection Service and me which make them entitled to enforce a commercial claim against me. They have not provided any proof of contract to substantiate their claim. Such as providing me with a certified copy of an original contract with my signature, specifically naming State Collection Service as a company entitled to enforce a commercial claim against me.

I was contacted by State Collection service by text and phone ( even outside of the time window they are supposed to contact ) with claimes I owed a debt. I did not recognize what the debt was for and asked on at least 3 occasions, twice on phone calls and once by letter, for validation of the debt since I did not recognize it. They continued contacting demanding payment but never provided the validation documents and recently reported the debt to credit agencies. I am not going to pay a debt I don't recognize and under the law, the validation documents should jave been provided.
