Since recieveing the bills intially I advised the collection agency that I had primary and XXXX coverage. None of My EOBS or explanation of benefits have ever showed a patient balance.

Consumer complaint: I attended a hospital that was " in network '' due to an emergency back in 2013. This hospital was in-network and selected by myself as we could not afford additional costs associated with non-network service providers. My insurance company at the time was XXXX of AZ. 

During my procedure that followed the emergency room admittance, and without my knowledge or consent I was treated by an non-network anesthesiologist. Later determined as XXXX XXXX. Neither the hospital or XXXX XXXX informed me in advance that he was out of network, and at that time I had no reason to suspect otherwise. 

After the procedure was completed, I was presented with bills from XXXX XXXX that we submitted to my insurance company. On review of the bills by my insurance company, they rejected all due to XXXX XXXX being a non-network provider and stated that I was responsible for it in full. I challenged this as I understand also ( By research ) that there are laws to protect me in this situation. The insurance provider said that they will re-process the charges for payment and requested a co-pay from me ( $ XXXX ). About 2 Months ago my insurance company reverses the decision and issues a refund of my co-pay with no explanation. 

Almost immediately XXXX XXXX proceeds and refers the file to lawyers for debt collections and the pursuit of payment of {$1400.00} and through the lawyers they are threatening legal action and legal judgement against me. I challenge the lawyers because of the events and that I did not agree to these services being performed by him directly and explained everything as I have outlined. The lawyers response was to continue to intimidate and threaten legal action and also referenced that I collected a check from the insurance company ( which was Actually the refund of my co-pay ). 

I proceeded and paid the lawyers ( Under duress due to the continued threats ) the amount in full.

Consumer complaint: I always pay my credit card on time. I logged in to see that my Bank of America credit card had a larger balance than normal. My initial response was to pay it off quickly. I then looked into the account further and found a fraudulent claim. The bank put a dispute in and gave me a new card. I also said that I had just made a payment and would like to have that sent back to my bank account. They told me they could not do that. What they could do was send me a check in the mail. They did this and I deposited the check. This was in XXXX, 2014. At the end of XXXX I had a mysterious charge on my credit card called credit readjustment. I called in to ask and they said they did not understand this and would investigate. Investigation, they said, should take XXXX hours. I had to call for over a month to see why no one got back to me. I wanted someone to contact me and explain. I had a folder on my computer filled with all of my statements so I was prepared when they called. No one ever explained except to say that they supposedly sent me a check, but also credited my old credit card account ( which I do not have access to see anymore because they gave me a new card ). I found this strange that they not only told me they were unable to issue me a refund, which is why they sent me a check in the first place, but also that it took them a month to tell me anything and I had to be the XXXX to follow up with them. Now I am unable to see my credit card account online and can not even pay anything off. I do not make a lot of money as I am starting my phd this fall and keep track of my money well. I can not afford to have a large charge come out of left field and no XXXX there is willing to even reduce the fee even though this was all their error to begin with.

Consumer complaint: I was at the airport and was approached by a XXXX Airlines representative who offered me a free club to earn airline points. He never mentioned a credit card application, credit card fees, or, in fact, the words " credit card '' at all. He asked several questions which I unfortunately answered. After answering several questions, I began to suspect that I was unknowingly applying for a credit card, so I stopped answering questions and said I did not want to apply for the card. He agreed to cancel the application and I thought he had, until XXXX weeks later when I received a credit card. 

I cancelled the card through Bank of America ( not the problem company ). When I cancelled the card, the Bank of America representative told me that the credit card has an annual fee. The fee was not disclosed by XXXX. She suggested that I call XXXX to complain. 

After calling XXXX and navigating a menu clearly designed to prevent contact with a person, I eventually reached soneone who told me I could n't talk to a manager because I had to complain with the airport staff. When I objected to this, I was told that I could submit a complaint through their website. When I asked if I would get a response to the complaint, I was told that I would get a website-generated confirmation that my complaint had been submitted, but I could not get an answer when I tried to find out if I would get a response from an actual person who had read the complaint. 

XXXX processed an application for credit in my name without my consent then did not allow me to speak with anyone to complain or to try to resolve the problem. I do not know if they are going to charge me the annual fee for the credit card for which I did not apply.

He said he would remove my phone number from the file. I am still getting calls from them, but now they are blocking the caller ID in an attempt to disguise themselves and get someone to answer the phone, I know this because I answered it and it was Source Receivables Management. I WANT THIS STOPPED.

I faxed a copy of my bank statement showing the debit on XXXX/XXXX/15. I called back a few days later and was told that it had to be sent to a supervisor to process. I continued to call and was told that they would email the supervisor to follow up.

I called back to find out when the refund would be made and was told that the supervisor said that it would be considered a voluntary payment unless I could prove that a third party made it. I asked to speak to the supervisor and was told that she was busy helping another customer but that she would send her an email letting her know that I would like to speak to her. I was transferred to a voice mail and left a request for a return call. I have not received a call back and based on the past XXXX moths experience has no confidence that I will hear from anyone at the company.

Consumer complaint: I attended XXXX College ( a XXXX College ) in XXXX XXXX CA in XX/XX/XXXX and graduated in XX/XX/XXXX.I was told that employment opportunities abounded but I would be required to agree to financial aid with Genesis Lending Financial because I did n't have the funds to pay for the course through the Department of Education or my own personal finances. I gave them my life savings of {$4000.00}. I was told that I would n't have to pay anything back until after they assisted me with employment. I was pulled out of class several times and told that if I did n't pay on the loans I could not complete the courses. Genesis Lending started to call me regarding payments and I told them that I was not employed and could not pay the amount that was requested. They offered a temporary forbarence payment but I was told that the amount of the loan would continue to increase over time. I had to continue to make payments on the loans during the course of the program even though I had been told that I did n't have to start payments until after graduation. I was constantly harrassed and threatened by this lender during the time I attended XXXX College and the financial aid department at the school shared an active role in the practice and I was never informed of the high default rates of these loans or the fact that this type of loan was a private loan and not funded by the Department of Education. This predatory lender has taken advantage of me as a low income unemployed person over XXXX years of age.

Consumer complaint: Enhanced Recovery Debt collector re-aged a debt that had been placed over 8 years ago and lists it as new. XXXX rejected the complaint. 

Company response: Company believes it acted appropriately as authorized by contract or law
Consumer complaint: I 've been communicating with the XXXX of XXXX manager, XXXX regarding a debt they 've originally noted to be XXXX and I challenged the amount. They then reduced it to XXXX and I challenged that amount as well. I never owed any of these amounts, and they 've since re-aged the debt and are submitting XXXX debts to the bureaus. XXXX of the debts are listed under the Apartment XXXX and the other under Resident Collect. The manager at apartment gave me the number to XXXX XXXX at the Collection agency who she had spoken to that very day regarding my file and suggested I speak to her myself. XXXX XXXX was extremely rude to me. She cut me off before i finished my concern. She said she would transfer me to someone else and when i told her that i preferred speaking to her because she was familiar with my case, she told me since i didnt want to write down the number, she would just transfer me and hung up. When I attempted to reach her several times after that on the same day, she transferred call to another area. When they picked up I asked for XXXX XXXX 's supervisor and the lady questioned me why I wanted to know that, said she would n't give it to me and hung up. I called again several times and they just kept putting me on hold or transferring the call. I finally left a message for XXXX XXXX and to this day, I 've still not gotten a return call. They were rude, disrespectful, did n't offer me any assistance at all. I am trying to buy a house and it is critical that I get this straightened out as it can possibly cause me to lose my chances of purchasing a home. They never gave me proper documentation that said there were damages I did n't make. I did n't leave the apartment in the state they noted. 
I am losing something far greater than they are trying to collect. I 'm working extremly hard to get my credit up to standards to purchase a home and have attempted on so many occasions to resolve and to be so close and can not get any assistance or even a return phone call is totally unacceptable. They could care less if I resolve the issue or not. They are reporting me XXXX and its hurting my credit beyond words as the debt reported on both are high numbers. I can not fix anything without any communication with them. My hands are tied and its extremely stressful. The lack of respect totally affected my health to the point where it triggered a XXXX and my XXXX. These are supposed to be professionals. Something should be done with these collection companies that treat you as though you 're nothing and does n't think respect and professionalism is needed.

Consumer complaint: I was on XXXX on XX/XX/2015 looking for airline tickets when it popped up that my airline ticket would be {$160.00} and that if I apply for an XXXX + XXXX credit card I would instantly get {$100.00} dollars off making it {$60.00} instead. I clicked on the credit card link and it gave me XXXX options : the XXXX + XXXX credit card or the XXXX + Citi credit card. I applied for the XXXX + credit card. I have excellent credit. I was told I was approved and would get my card within 7 days in the mail. I called CitiBanks who said that did n't know why it did n't give me an instant access code but that there was nothing they could do now. I told them to cancel my credit card then but they did not and told me to call back in 48 hours and they could give it to me then. On XX/XX/2015, I called back and they told me that there was still nothing they could do and they could not give me my card number over the phone. I again asked them to cancel the card as I really did not want to wait 7 days to get the card in the mail as I was promised instant prior to applying for the credit. And they canceled it. I am reporting this because I feel that I was scammed and lied to. I would never have applied to the card if I had been told up front that it would take 7 days to get the card. I am very upset with the way I was treated. Citi banks and XXXX both were misleading. I now am 3 days delayed in buying airline tickets so I may not get as good of a selection and they will be more expensive. I am letting you know so that this type of scam can be prevented in the future. I should never have been treated this way and others should not be either. Thank you!

Consumer complaint: US Bank notified me by email that they would eliminate the Bonus Award Nights benefit as of XXXX XXXX, 2015. I 'm unhappy about losing the Bonus Award Nights benefit because the main reason I applied for a XXXX XXXX XXXX Rewards Visa Signature Card with paying an annual fee of {$75.00} was to get the bonus award night benefit. I decided to call US Bank and explained to them the situation. They 're unwilling to help me nor did they give any compensation for eliminating the bonus award night benefit.
