Company: AMCOL Systems, Inc.
State: NC
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Medical
Issue: Communication tactics
Sub-issue: Threatened to take legal action

Complaint:
I had a debt owed to a XXXX office resulting from some amount not paid by my insurance carrier associated with the procedures by this XXXX office during my visit. I was never notified of any amount due ( {$65.00} ) by the XXXX office. Instead, they sent the amount due to their collection agency AMCOL Systems Inc. So the first notice I received of owing any amount was from this collection agency threatening to report the unpaid item to my credit bureau if I did not paid the debt or dispute the debt within 30 days. I did not have any opportunity to see the details and an explanation of the amount due from XXXX before being contact by a collection agency. 
I called AMCOL Systems and explained that I had not had any previous notice of any debt from XXXX and they stated they knew nothing about the collection practices of XXXX associated with prior notice. They simply stated that the debt had been turned over to them for collection and I would need to pay them. 
I strongly believe that XXXX is maintaining a policy of not providing any follow-up notice to patients of a debt owed as a result of an amount not paid by the insurance carrier but is utllizing the practice of just turning over any amounts due from patient visits directly to AMCOL Systems for collection and paying their fee for the collection services. 
I consider this practice to be very inappropriate, unfair and XXXX to patients, like myself, who always pay valid debts in a timely manner and have a very high credit rating. 
Allowing a collection service to threaten impacting my credit rating when I have not been given any prior invoice with details of the amounts owed to XXXX needs to be stopped. I would have gladly paid XXXX directly had I been sent details of the amount owed directly from XXXX.

The way they handled this was harassment. The rep did not even apologize. It 's not right to receive collection calls or emails when you have paid! I do not want to see this reported to the credit bureau for their errors. I also see that they repeatedly make these kinds of errors with many other customers. A giant bank should get their act together. Thanks for reading.

Sub-issue: No notice of investigation status/result

Complaint:
Equifax has been contacted several times in the past and recently regarding the re-aging of a few accounts on my credit file. I contacted Equifax over the phone on XXXX/XXXX/2017 to indicate that items in my files were not validated and verified legally. The representative, " XXXX '', was informed that re-aging ( an illegal practice ) is still occurring on my credit file. I explained to XXXX that there were XXXX accounts where the date of first delinquency ( DOFD ) were not identical. 

XXXX stated that once a company sells a debt to a collection agency, the collection agency has their own dates. I explained to XXXX that this information was invalid, and that the DOFD are legally supposed to be identical, not different dates. Furthermore, I explained to her that Equifax is a resource that bridges the relationship between companies and consumers. They are required by law to ensure that the information the report on me is accurate. 

XXXX only submitted a dispute on this issue and refused to review the information and delete it due to inaccuracy. After SEVERAL investigations for these accounts, it is apparent that Equifax neglected to validate and verify these accounts as required by law.

Issue: Making/receiving payments, sending money

Complaint:
Bank of America refuses to refund {$40.00} in fees I paid for checks that turned out to be invalid for the purpose the bank promised. I needed certified checks valid for one year. I asked Bank of America if its certified checks were valid for this duration and was assured that such checks issued by Bank of America were valid for three years despite the 90-day expiration date printed on each check. I paid {$40.00} for XXXX certified checks, or {$10.00} per check. The checks were rejected because the recipient has previously been unable to deposit Bank of America 's certified checks beyond the 90-day expiration date. When I returned to Bank of America, the manager was able to refund the value of the checks but told me that, due to " technical reasons, '' she could not refund the additional {$40.00} in fees. Nobody from the bank can seem to figure out how to refund the cost of the checks. Bank of America should ( 1 ) stop providing conflicting information about when its checks expire ; and ( 2 ) issue a refund for the {$40.00} I paid in reliance on the bank 's faulty advice/product.

Complaint:
I have a HELOC with Wells Fargo. I 've been getting notified for about a year that they were going to increase my monthly payment and convert it to a standard second mortgage with an increased payment. I did not and do not have a problem with that. 
What they did n't notify me is that the interest rate was being raised from 4.24 % to 6.88 %. With a current outstanding balance of {$190000.00}, this is an interest increase of over {$5000.00} per year! 
I have started refinance options but if not successful or if any delay, I 'm paying over {$400.00} per month in interest! 
I had no need to refinance to avoid paying the loan off faster. I certainly had a reason to refinance to keep the interest rate level!

State: DC
Product: Credit card
Issue: Rewards

Complaint:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, My name is XXXX XXXX and I had a Wells Fargo VISA Signature Card ending in XXXX. 

I received a letter from Wells Fargo on XX/XX/2016 noting that there had been some suspicious charges on my account and that if this particular account activity continued after receiving this letter, Wells Fargo noted they would close my account. 
The charges were valid charges, however, I followed the direction and did Not make Any Additional charges whatsoever After receiving the letter on XX/XX/2016. As I state, I followed the letter 's directions exactly, and did Not make Any Additional charges after being directed. 

Logging into my online account a few days afterwards, I noted that my credit card has now been closed without warning or letter from Wells Fargo. More importantly, the {$1500.00} in Wells Fargo Go Far Rewards have not posted and have been XXXX out. 

This is wrong. I received a letter from the credit card company/bank and I followed the letter 's directions and did n't make any additional charges. Additionally, for them to close my credit card account outright without notifying me first is also wrong I believe. All charges were valid. Lastly, if they so choose to close my account for whatever reason, I should be entitled to the {$1500.00} in rewards points I rightfully earned. 

Wells Fargo runs a promotion and refuses to pay out to their customers? I believe this is wrong and I am expecting to get paid out my {$1500.00} in rewards. I am hoping you can step in on my behalf. 

Wells Fargo is deceptive and wrong. They claimed they sent me a letter, which they did as stated above. They clearly told me what not to do and I followed their directions exactly. 

I am Tired of Big Banks taking advantage of us. My husband and I have a {$400000.00} mortgage with them as well. IF they seriously want to continue to harm their customers, I will be refinancing with a different institution.

Complaint:
In continuation to case number XXXX : Asked Wells Fargo earlier this year for deferral to move my late balance to end of the loan cycle. The rep stated that I would NOT qualify until 12 months had passed for 3 months deferral. I now find out that Wells Fargo did a one month deferral without consent -- please ask them to listen to my call with the rep whom stated I did not qualify yet. There was NO notification mailed out nor did I sign anything. I 'm seeking assistance with bringing my account current. Wells Fargo is now stating that we have to wait an additional 12 months when they should have deferred 3 months rather than one. Our credit is being impacted as we are trying to work with Wells Fargo.
