Consumer complaint received 2017-08-07
Company: North American Credit Services
State: PA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
The North American Credit Services ( NACS ) started contacting me in XXXX 2017. They left a voicemail message, in which they butchered the pronunciation of my name to the point where I thought it was a wrong number. I did not receive any letter communications from them at the time. I called them back in XXXX 2017 - and they had informed me that I had a bill from the Hospital and that they had sent me letters as well. I informed them that I never received any written communication from either the hospital or NACS. They identified that NACS and the hospital both had the wrong address on file. NACS agreed to not contact the Credit Bureaus. I, then, contacted the hospital and informed them that I never received a bill from them ; the hospital identified that they had not sent out any bills to me, prior to involving NACS. The hospital apologized for their mistake and stated that they will email NACS to clarify the mistake.
XXXX/XXXX/17 - NACS sent out a letter in an attempt to collect this paid bill from the hospital.
XXXX/XXXX/17 - I called them to clarify everything. One person informed me that they had already contacted the credit bureau. Another informed me that they had not contacted the credit bureau. Then another person informed me that they did indeed contact the credit bureau but deleted it because of the wrong address issue. I asked for a copy of the retraction letter and they informed me they could send it ; however, they could not admit that this should never have been reported to the credit bureau to begin with, given it was NACS and the hospital 's fault - I had never received the original bill. They refuse to write a retraction letter explaining that I was not at fault for the delinquent bill since I had never received a bill. I informed them that I did not want a retraction letter without a statement saying the credit bureau was incorrectly contacted due to NACS and the hospital using the wrong address to contact me. However, they refused to write a letter. I called their complaint division several times, but the extension does not work.

Hi, I've mailed multiple letters to Transunion disputing an inaccurate account on my credit report.

The open date, last date active, account type, and payment status are reporting incorrectly and are a violation of my rights. I have attached a copy of my credit report highly these errors.

On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX reported to all three credit bureaus that I was 60-90 days late and demanded {$240.00}. in late fees. My score plummeted 100 points. Since I had already paid {$1000.00}. in earnest money, {$350.00}. for an home inspection, and {$400.00}. for an appraisal, I paid the {$240.00}. in an attempt to recover my score. It didn't work. I lost the home. Now I'm stuck indefinitely paying outrageous amounts ( approximately XXXX XXXX./mo. {$600.00}. more than my house payment would have been ) to  keep my things in storage and live in temporary housing.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
During the month ofXX/XX/2019 through initial days ofXX/XX/2019, IC Systems Intl , Inc, has refuted disputes, I filed specifically with XXXX to request they ( IC Systems Intl , Inc ) produce any evidence supporting that their reporting to XXXX is valid. I did not retain XXXX XXXX XXXX, service ( s ) at any point. I am XXXX and receive XXXX. XXXX  has not resolved this issue. The only reason, I have not filed suit and a Motion to Compel, removal of this falsehood, is because, I am uncertain where to serve the reporting agency with a Duces Tecum subpoena included. 
Please interceded. I requested in XX/XX/2019, from IC Systems , Inc, any proof of a contract or service and type of service. The only repetitive statement, they have to substantiate this false alleged debt is that it matches my social security number. This disparity in reporting has had a substantial adverse effect on me psychologically, physically and financially. No legal basis exists for any contract in this case. I have not hired or requested any products from the agency IC Systems Intl , Inc, bought this issue from ( XXXX XXXX ). I am on public assistance and XXXX with very restricted financial services to challenge the falsehood this company asserts against me. 
Thank you for your, time, courtesies and efforts in advance.

State: NY
Product: Credit card or prepaid card
Sub-product: General-purpose credit card or charge card
Issue: Other features, terms, or problems
Sub-issue: Problem with rewards from credit card

Complaint:
Having seen ads on line about a XXXX XXXX credit card giving elite status miles ( XXXX ) on XXXX XXXX after spending {$40000.00} with the card, we applied for the card. Barclays Bank issues the card. We called several times and were told on the phone by the Bank representative that we could not apply directly for the Silver Card, that instead we had to apply first for the " XXXX XXXX '' card, and that after using it for 3 months we could upgrade to the Silver card. We explained that we only wanted the Silver card because we wanted the XXXX elite miles toward status on XXXX XXXX. We called several times seeking the Silver card, and each time were told that we first had to apply for the Red Card, and then after 3 months of using the Red Card we could upgrade to the Silver card. We were told that all expenditures on the Red Card would transfer to the Silver card as would the fee we paid for the Red card. So we applied for the Red Card, paid the fee, and used the card exclusively for 3 months ( forgoing use of other cards that offered other benefits ). In mid-XX/XX/2018 after we had used the Red card for more than 3 months, we called to upgrade to the Silver card. However we were told that there would be no more upgrades to the Silver card for the rest of XX/XX/XXXX. We were never told that upgrading to the Silver card was merely an option that Barclays bank could cancel at any time during our use of the Red Card. Had we been told that, we would not have applied for, paid the fee, and used the Red Card. We wanted the extra status miles based on our card usage for XX/XX/XXXX.
