Company: Account Managers, Inc.
State: CA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
1. I received communication from a random and unknown caller asking for the name of my person while I was enjoying time with my family. This call was an inconvenience as I had to step away from intimate time with them. 

2. When I asked who was calling and from what business or agency, the person calling gave me some acronym that I did not recognize and proceeded to ask for my name. Once I gave them my name, they said that they were attempting to collect a debt from me. I asked who it was again and they stated that they were " Grimm '' collections trying to collect on some medical or dental account. 

3. I then asked how did they acquire my name, number, or any information whatsoever without my permission or consent to which they proceeded to probe about some alleged XXXX XXXX XXXX  debt and asked " how I would like to pay ''. 

4. I do not see any connection between myself and this company. I do not recognize Grimm Collection as anyone I've personally done business with nor do I owe them any sort of legal obligation. 

5. I have reasons to believe HIPAA laws may have been violated by Grimm 's collections and whomever may have given them some sort of private XXXX transaction history or information because I never delivered that to them personally. 

6. I know that collection agencies buy debts at pennies on a dollar and then trick or misrepresent or manipulate regular people into pulling their hard earned money out to pay their agency which they have no relationship, connection, contract, agreement, or arrangement. 

7. The aforementioned is an example of abusive, deceptive, and unfair debt collection practices utilized by debt collectors such as Grimm collections. 

8. Grimm Collections and the Consumer Reporting Agencies do not have my consent to furnish this information and they surely do not have my written consent. 

9. Any and all consent to Grimm Collection, XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX etc. whether it be verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise is revoked. 

10. Grimm Collections abusive actions directly affect interstate commerce and do not promote any sort of protection.

Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Complaint:
I have applied for the XXXX waiver ( XXXX ). I am being told I am 8 months away from forgiveness or until XX/XX/XXXX. 
I calculate I should have already qualified. 

My question is, Why are some of my payments being labeled as eligible for XXXX and some are not? According to their counter I am short XXXX  months of qualifying for forgiveness. Yet, I have XXXX months they are not counting. They are not counting 3 months for XXXX, XXXX of XXXX, and 8 months of XXXX a total of XXXX months. If and when they count these I will not only qualify but be over the required number of months. 

I have emailed, called, and resubmitted forms. Yesterday I was hung up on, called again and was told yet again they don't know why they are not being counted. That it is best to keep on waiting. I don't want to have to start making payments in XXXX only to have them returned if it is not necessary. 
I am asking for an answer and am reaching out for any help you can give me. 
Thank you, XXXX XXXX

My mother is sick and now in a XXXX XXXX. I have been attempting to add power of attorney to my mother 's account for over eight weeks now with Citi Shop Your Way card. I faxed the paperwork in once.

Today one of the individuals on the XXXX number for the credit card tells me that magically two sheets are now missing. This has been escalated to their " executive response team '' and that was over three weeks ago. As this draws on my mother 's credit is being ruined and the late fees continue to pile up. 

This is beyond ridiculous.
