Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: HCFS Healthcare Financial Services of TeamHealth (FL)

ARS has sent I the consumer several letters stating I owe an alleged debt for 3 accounts in the amount of {$1100.00}, {$1500.00} and {$1700.00}, this is harassment. I received letters dated XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX. ( I will attached letters ) all of which state this is an attempt to collect a debt, a direct violation of 15 USC 1692b ( 2 ). I have never given any written permission or consent to ARS to contact me or to create an account in my name ; I have never given ARS my home address. Nor have I ever had a contract or agreement with them. This is a direct violation of my consumer rights pursuant to but not limited to 15 USC 1692c ( 1 ). These actions constitute to identity theft because I never gave consent. Since I have never had a contract with this organization they have no grounds to report to a credit bureau and since they have this is a direct violation of 15 USC 1692f ( 1 ). They claim they have sent validation of debt ; however, ARS was not present to view an original consumer transaction therefore it is impossible for them to verify that the alleged debt is a valid debt. I sent an affidavit to ARS, the lawful response to an affidavit is a rebuttal point for point. They have not provided a rebuttal point for point therefore, anything other than the lawful response is default and invalid. I gave them an opportunity to cure on XX/XX/XXXX, and they continue to report negatively on my consumer report without providing a lawful rebuttal providing validation. It has taken a considerable amount of time, effort, and finances to address this issue. It appears my credit card also known as my SSN was used to obtain credit via the original consumer transaction and ARS was not a party involved in that original transaction. ARS has furnished negative collections accounts to my credit report which has caused emotional distress for me do to them attacking and ruining my reputation pursuant 15 USC 1692d ( 1 ). Their reporting has severely impacted my consumer report and my ability to obtain credit. I have asked them before to remove the items as they have no right to furnish information on my consumer report especially since we have no official contract or agreement between one another. Since my initial complaint I have placed ARS in default as of XX/XX/XXXX ( AFFIDAVIT ; DEFAULT JUDGEMENT AND COMERCIAL DISHONOR, please see attached ). I have also mailed them a CONSUMER ENFOREMENT ACTION document with CONSUMER ENFORCEMENT SETTLEMENT ORDER ( PRE-SUIT ) INVOICE # 001 ; STATEMENT OF DAMAGES dated XX/XX/XXXX ( see attached ).
