Consumer complaint received 08/24/2017 about Debt collection (Medical debt) with EQUIFAX, INC. (IA).
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was paid

Complaint: Multiple collections for medical on credit reports. These charges were covered by insurance and I am not responsible these debts. Previously disputed with no results causing my credit score to lower rather than help fix my score. 

How can I be in XXXX, IA on XX/XX/XXXX and in XXXX the same day. Also XXXX XXXX ( in XXXX, ia ) is a XXXX facility in which I stayed and there is nothing that they would have created charges from XXXX XXXX in XXXX would be needed on XX/XX/XXXX.
