Company: Merchants Credit Corporation
State: WA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
Merchants Credit Association routinely contacts me regarding medical debts that the fail to prove are mine. I've routinely asked them to provide itemized lists of the debts, the original biller, and proof that debt is mine. They never provide these proof documents. When these debts are disputed with the credit agencies, they agree to remove them, and then attempt to put them back on my credit reports. Now I have learned they are trying to file a civil lawsuit for some of these debts. I now believe they may have sent someone to my house who demanded my teens, who were home alone, answer the front door. I have filed a police report and am waiting to hear back more on this. Overall, I am scared of Merchants Credit Association and am losing sleep, suffering more medical ailment from the stress they induce, and I they have still yet to prove the debts are mine.

Complaint:
When I checked my credit record, I discovered a billing problem. Under U.S. Code 1666 ( b ), billing errors include any computation errors or other accounting errors on a statement, as well as the creditor 's failure to appropriately reflect a statement, a payment made by the debtor, or a credit line extended to the debtor. There shouldn't be any late payments on these accounts because, as far as I'm aware, the creditor did not send me a statement 21 days earlier. Below is the list of the disputed accounts. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance Owed : {$530000.00} - An account showing to be 120 days late is already a charge off account with accordance to Federal Reserve and Federal Insurance Act. However, I see here that this account is continuously marked as 120 days late. I believe that this account is erroneously reporting. Please investigate the way this account reports and update all lates to reflect correct status immediately. Regards.
