Consumer complaint received 2019-11-01
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score — Other problem getting your report or credit score
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (NV)

Complaint:
I had credit monitoring through XXXX for all 3 major agencies. I was getting lots of emails about the XXXX product being transferred to Experian. None of them ever mentioned an increase in price. I noticed this morning ( XX/XX/XXXX ) that Experian had debited my credit card for {$24.00} on XX/XX/XXXX so I called XXXX. They didn't know what it was so I called Experian. They said that it was payment for credit monitoring. I explained that I had it already through XXXX, and that I had paid for this month already : {$12.00} on XXXX. They said they would cancel my account and that I would have to file a dispute with XXXX for the return of the {$24.00}. ( I assumed that they meant the account they were charging me for, with Experian, that knew nothing about. ) I filed the dispute with XXXX but afterward noticed 2 emails from Experian. The first said that my XXXX credit monitoring service couldn't be transferred to Experian because I had two accounts. It stated further that it was closing the account with XXXX. The second email said that my credit report had been unlocked. I tried all day to contact them but couldn't get through the robo answering device. I tried to go to their website to lock my credit file again but was told that they couldn't do it and that I would have to write to them. I am at my wits end with this company. I feel like they are attempting to extort me because I didn't pay an additional {$24.00} for a service that I had already paid for at {$12.00}. Since they have already unlocked my credit without my permission, I suppose that I won't be able to lock it again, unless I pay them. 

I have also lost my XXXX monitoring service in this process and I can reach no one at Experian to help me straighten this out. 

I am attaching some emails from Experian and also a copy of my credit card statement with XXXX. The first and the last entry on this screenshot are the debits to my credit card at XXXX and made by Experian. XX/XX/XXXX is the top entry and XXXX the bottom.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Commonwealth Financial Systems, Inc. (FL)

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX I went to XXXX Hospital XXXX. At the time of this visit, I was an employee of the Hospital System. I carried the employer sponsored insurance plan as my primary insurance as well as Florida State XXXX. When asked, I presented both insurance cards to the hospital 's registration representative for billing purposes. I also presented, by State ID & signed authorization 's to treat & bill my insurance. My primary insurance, the employer sponsored, paid {$0.00} & applied {$810.00} to my in network deductible, which left {$810.00} left payable by my secondary insurance, Florida XXXX. The hospital never billed my secondary insurance, instead they billed me the patient, but never actually sent out a bill. I was able to verify this information because I worked in the patient accounting department, doing the insurance billing & collections. My account was outsourced to a third party agency, by the name of Common Wealth Financial, under account # XXXX. I made contact with Common Wealth Financial in XX/XX/XXXX, I advised email to proof that I was covered under Florida XXXX on the date of service mentioned above. In XX/XX/XXXX this item was removed from my credit report, along with account # XXXX, collection account for Date of Service XX/XX/XXXX for {$210.00}. Sometime between today and XX/XX/XXXX, both balances were reported back to XXXX, XXXX & XXXX. I made contact with Common Wealth today, XX/XX/XXXX & was advised this information was not be reported to the credit reporting agencies mentioned previously. In additional, Common Wealth Financial was unwillingly to investigate and/or resolve the issue.

Issue: Managing an account — Deposits and withdrawals
Company: CITIBANK, N.A. (CA)

Complaint:
On XX/XX/23, I received an e-mail stating that XXXX XXXX was charging my account for {$290.00}. I responded by email but it did not go through, so I called the number in the email to tell them that I didn't want their service. The man who answered said he was reversing the charge. 

Almost immediately after I hung up, a man calling himself XXXX XXXX called and claimed to be from XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX. He told me that I had been scammed by XXXX and my credit card had two fraudulent charges on it. He told me to protect my bank account from cyber fraud I needed to open an account with XXXX XXXX XXXX and wire my savings into it. He told me Citibank is being hacked so I had to hurry before fraudsters took it all. He said XXXX was a safe wallet to hold my money until I opened an account at a different bank. 

I opened an account with XXXX and XXXX XXXX sent me an email with instructions for completing the wire transfer from Citibank. I went to my Citibank branch and was assisted by XXXX XXXX. I made a wire transfer of {$50000.00} to a XXXX bank account XXXX XXXX claimed was owned by XXXX. 

Later I was concerned and looked up the phone numbers for the man calling himself XXXX XXXX. I was not able to verify they belonged to him, so I contacted XXXX to ask if he was one of their agents. I received an email verifying that he worked for cyber fraud investigations and was legit. The email had XXXX logo in it, but I didnt realize at the time that it came from a XXXX address. I was then told my XXXX account had been locked and I could not transfer money in or out of it. The scammers were somehow able to access the funds and withdrew them from the XXXX account. 

The next day, I went to Citibank and asked them to reverse the wire transfer. They did an investigation and two months later stated that XXXX wouldn't return the money, so it was my loss to bear. 

I am a XXXX XXXX and I have been banking at Citibank for about 20 years. Despite the fact that this transaction involved a very large amount of money and I had no history whatsoever of such transactions, neither XXXX XXXX nor anyone else at the Citibank branch asked me any questions during the face-to-face interaction to screen for or warn me that I might be a victim of a scam. I am informed that this type of scam is very common, and it would have taken only seconds for a Citibank employee to ask a few questions and provide me enough information to help me to realize that I was being victimized. Instead, Citibank collected the {$35.00} wire transfer fee, sent the money out of my account, and provided no assistance in recovering it.

Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: Professional Finance Company, Inc. (CO)

Complaint:
I had to have XXXX  XXXX in XXXX of 2019. It was something completely unexpected and unplanned for. Afterward I had a mountain of bills from the hospital, all the separate doctors and the one in question is from the XXXX  I was regulary paying what I could afford each month to everyone who sent me a bill, up until XXXX when I lost my job due to COVID-19. I stopped receiving bills from the XXXX for some reason and therefore lost track of who I was supposed to pay and when. I had too many bills to keep track of and too much going on with COVID-19 and trying to find a new job that if someone didn't send me a bill, I didn't know I was supposed to be paying. I did not receive any notice prior to finding out by seeing it on my credit report that I had been turned over to collections. No one tried to call me as far as I know because I had to have the service shut off on my phone because I couldn't afford it. But I received no emails or notices in the mail regarding this collection or anything stating that I had the right to dispute or negotiate this debt. If I had, I would have been more than willing to work out a payment plan with this company. I have reached out the company several times to try to reconcile this debt but they have not responded to me at all. This collection has ruined my credit rating. My FICO score when from over XXXX down to XXXX. This seems very harsh and unfair in light of the fact that I have not had anything negative on my credit report prior to this, I have never made a payment late in my entire life and I worked very hard to maintain an excellent credit score. It also seems very unfair that this was turned over to collections in the middle of a pandemic when so many people were out of work and struggling to make ends meet. Most companies had payment extensions in place and were forgiving about late payments. I need to negotiate this debt because it is more than I can afford given my current financial situation and I need this collection removed from my credit report because it is completely unfair and not a true reflection of my credit worthiness. I have been more than willing to work something out this whole time, it is through no fault of my own that this company has been so unwilling to communicate and work with me on this.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Received bad information about your loan
Company: AES/PHEAA (WI)

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I attempted to make a scheduled payment for my student loans with Fedloans. When I spoke to the representative, she said since my payment wouldnt file until after the loan forbearance took effect, that I wasnt responsible for my XXXX payment. Therefore, I canceled my payment. 

However, when I logged into my account in XX/XX/XXXX, it showed that I was behind on a payment. I called and spoke with another representative, she said that if I made the payment then, it would count towards my XXXX payment. Therefore, I made a payment of {$570.00} on XX/XX/XXXX as instructed to count for my XXXX of XXXX payment. 

When I submitted my next employment certification form XX/XX/XXXX, they did not count my XXXX payment as a qualified payment. I had called and spoken to another representative and she said she would submit a request to have that payment reviewed. I had not heard anything for a month and so I called again and they said it was still under review. 3 months later, I called again, and they said once again, it was still under review. 

After over a year of not hearing anything, I decided to submit another employee certification form on XX/XX/XXXX, and they still stated that the XX/XX/XXXX payment did not count as a certified payment. 

I called and spoke to a representative and she said she did not see any claim being reviewed for my XXXX payment to count as a qualified payment and said she would submit the claim. Its now been over a month and I still have not heard anything. 

I have continued to speak with several representatives and have been given false information numerous times.
