Complaint:
My name is  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  I reside at  XXXX   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  NJ  XXXX  I recently applied for a student loan for my daughter who is going to college in  XXXX .     I was denied, due to collections from a corrupt collection firm named  Simons Agency!      I have superb medical insurance, I was shocked to find out that all these alleged collections came from   XXXX   XXXX   XXXX  , some in the amounts of {$5.00} and  XXXX  $!    ( See  below. ) This is a disgrace and a well-respected medical center such as yourselves should be mortified for contracting a renowned ( in the jurisdictive world of lawsuits ) for unscrupulous, unprincipled business such as  Simons Agency !     I called your medical billing department yesterday for help, was told sorry cant do anything for you they are too old you need to deal with collection agency! Then asked to speak to a supervisor and got hung up on after being on hold 10 minutes.       I then called Simons and was treated rudely and talked to like  Im  a criminal, I asked for payment plan to clean this up, I need this loan for my daughter school, he laughed at me over the phone!     I am absolutely livid right now I have filed a complaint with the  XXXX   XXXX  and Indiana AG  office  due to the company headquarters being there, the  Assistant AG  knows of them well, multiple lawsuits and settlements.     Seriously,  Summit s hould be ashamed of themselves. Look below and tell me what you think of their collection practices!     I refuse to let this go, no one can provide validation of the debt and your office hangs up on me!       Please advise as to how Summit will handle this!
