Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
I had medical issue with XXXX, a for-profit hospital that has a reputation for padding their medical statements. Medicare paid for the services rendered stating in their CSM summary that " u this service paid under another service provided on the same day '' which means that XXXX was padding the billing. I sent a letter to XXXX protesting the additional billing as it exceeded CMS handbook, and that they had not sent me the actual billing codes submitted to Medicare. My understanding is that I should have been billed only the deductible and not the {$430.00} that Medicredit claims I owe. I do NOT owe Medicredit anything as I NEVER received any services from this disreputable band of thugs, and I am still waiting on SageWest to confirm that they know they were PAID IN FULL by Medicare. I am deaf but I think Medicredit has been making multiple calls to my text phone but they never leave a message to confirm who they are. This is harassment and burning up minutes on my text phone that I need for emergencies.

In response to the company 's recent response, please provide me with the authorization form bearing my signature that gave your company permission to pull my report and apply for an account. I would also like the online deposit account information that was given to you. If you are unable to provide me with this please remove these inquiries from my account. I would not even apply for the same account twice, especially if I was denied as you stated. I have no proof from you other than you stating that someone knew all of my information and used it to apply for an account. Anyone who has stolen my identity can do that. Remove these inquiries immediately. I have had an issue with my identity being stolen for some time now, that could have been anyone submitting my information online. That is not proof enough.

Sub-issue: Company closed your account

Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX. I received a letter stating they were closing my XXXX XXXX accounts, 2 roth ira and 1 XXXX college savings for my son. Called them to ask why and they said it was a business decision to end service with me and no further explanation was given. About a week later, another letter came in the mail and said they were closing my checking and savings account with no explanation. I have been on the phone back and forth with XXXX trying to rollover a different brokerage and now im dealing with my checkingsavings account. Called about that and they said the same. None of the customer service could understand it and tell me why. Been a loyal customer with bank of america for over 15 yrs and my mortgage is currently there so everything was fine. XX/XX/XXXX this morning i went to use my credit cards from BOA and guess what they are shut off. Called them and ask why and no answer was given except they can terminate anytime. Ive paid my bills on time with them have excellent credit so i couldnt understand why. after back and forth with customer service which i was polite to because its not there fault the banks did this, i ask what about my reward points ive accumulated, they said it was forfeited do to account closure. I have over 68K points on travel rewards and they wont do anything about it. No explanation, no reason. I have been on the phone for the past few weeks dealing with this. I think i should have been given the courtesy of an explanation and reasoning why this happened and after years of loyalty to the bank, they could have at least work something out even if we would not continue business together.

It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA you are required by law to remove & block any accountswhich is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these items.

If you feel there is a possibility these items belong to me I will require all documentation that bears my signature to verify with 100 % accuracy that each account is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE. If you do not provide any records & claim the items are verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly.
