Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: AR Resources, Inc.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
Two items I'm disputing, first one is : Months ago, maybe a year ago, I noticed that there was a " debt '' showing as unpaid on my credit report. I contacted the dr 's office ( XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX, FL ) and they agreed that it was paid years ago and it shouldn't have gone to collections, they said they'd fix it. They didn't - I contacted them several times and each time they didn't correct it. I wrote a letter in XX/XX/XXXX. I received notice from XXXX stating they corrected it. But now I still see it on XXXX ' report. See below. 
Updated collection, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XX/XX/XXXX BUSINESS NAME/ADDRESS, BUSINESS TYPE, ACCOUNT TYPE/STATUS, BALANCE, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, UNPAID, $ USD XXXX Second dispute is : New collection, AR RESOURCES INC, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX BUSINESS NAME/ADDRESS, BUSINESS TYPE, ACCOUNT TYPE/STATUS, BALANCE AR RESOURCES INC, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, PA XXXX, Collection, {$100.00} This is for another medical bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had made arrangements for monthly payments and I paid it off even sooner than agreed. I contacted both XXXX XXXX XXXX and AR Resource. When XXXX XXXX said I didn't have a payment plan, I asked them to have a supervisor call me, I'm still waiting for the call!. The balance is XXXX on this and should not have gone to collections! 
It's frustrating to get medical care, pay your bill and still get sent to collections - probably due to the incompetence of entry level reps. So here are two medical offices that people should try to avoid!

All pertinent information and proof is on the letters I have provided.

Company: Ability Recovery Services, LLC
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I disputed this account since I have never been do the hospital where the collection came from. After months of sending them information I was told my the collector that the account would be deleted. Two weeks later is was deleted. 

Now, months later, the debt has reappeared and they tell me it was just updated and was never deleted and now they want more information. They are super rude and even harassed my mother at her address for years with letters and phone calls before they finally asked her for my phone number. Very unprofessional and are not willing to listen to logic. They just want money, don't care if their information is correct or not. They won't and probably can't even confirm is this doctor even saw me. 

Disgusting.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I notified Equifax by U.S. Postal Certified mail that I'm a victim of identity theft and as a result I would like for this Equifax credit bureau to immediately remove, delete or block a long list of unauthorized credit inquiries from my credit file. 

Unfortunately, for almost 2 months and as of this present date, I have not received a written response from Equifax. 

However, after I contacted Equifax twice by phone during this month of XX/XX/XXXX, Equifax has still refused to provide me with their written status or results of my written dispute. 

As I am clearly a victim of identity theft and a victim of the Equifax Data Breach of XX/XX/XXXX, I plan to hold Equifax and all unauthorized creditors liable by filing a huge lawsuit against them, especially since there were no permissible purpose under which these fraudulent credit inquiries were made.

Company: Coinbase, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
Hi CFPB I raised a support ticket with XXXX, immediately after the platform crash they suffered, on the XX/XX/XXXX and again on the XX/XX/XXXX. They have only confirmed that they had received the support tickets, but did not provide support ticket references, then sent out an standard email on XX/XX/XXXX confirming they are having delays dealing with tickets ( which I empathise with ) and that they are prioritizing their responses. 

The contents of the second ticket, sent XX/XX/XXXX, explained my issue : " Hi Support I have not received a response to my request as yet, please can you help? 

My sell order for XXXX for XXXXBTC incorrectly fired around XXXX on the XX/XX/XXXX.  Your systems also dropped so rapidly it sold at levels far below XXXX - XXXX to XXXX, XXXX ... please provide evidence if was due to a system error and not a real price. 

Can you also confirm that the historical graphs for XX/XX/XXXX, around XXXX British Mean Time, now look completely different to what XXXX was showing on the day for the price of BTC/GBP ... now your site is showing a peak of XXXX but it definitely spiked at XXXX. 

Your graphs are now showing a low of around XXXX - my sell order was XXXX ... this is clear evidence that the sell order only fired due to your systems falling over. 

Can you confirm you can see the sell order cancellation request prior to your systems erroring? This was done around XXXX? 

I lost approximately XXXX of a BTC ... I'd purchased XXXX of BTC that morning and this error has wiped out my investment on that day effectively. 

Please can you help resolve this issue and refund me for the lost BTC? 

Much appreciated XXXX XXXX '' On the day of the XX/XX/XXXX the sell order fired incorrectly at XXXX British Mean Time and I then bought back in at XXXX when the price on XXXX had returned to the correct market value. I sold XXXX BTC and bought back XXXX BTC. I lost XXXX BTC due to the incorrect sell. 

There were also 2 charges of XXXX and XXXX from XXXX for the trades. None of these trades should have taken place and I should not have been charged due to the XXXX platform fail over/glitch. Please can you help? 

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Company: AMERICAN EXPRESS COMPANY
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I was charged a no-show penalty fee on my XXXX platinum card by the XXXX XXXX   Hotel for a reservation I made and cancelled at the XXXX  travel web portal. XX/XX/XXXX, I filed an online dispute with XXXX and uploaded a copy of the attached reservation cancellation. On XX/XX/XXXX, I spoke with XXXX at XXXX travel in XXXX, TX. XXXX acknowledged that the reservation was cancelled and that the penalty fee should not have been charged. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX left a voicemail message for me indicating that her manager XXXX had reviewed the account, contacted the XXXX XXXX and confirmed that the XXXX XXXX   would refund the penalty charge. 

In all my communications with XXXX I indicated that my statement closed at months end, and as such there was urgency to getting this matter resolved and the charged removed before the end of the month. The charged was not removed and XXXX  reported the account to all credit bureaus with the amount in dispute resulting in a negative impact to my FICO score. This resulted in my reported XXXX balance shooting from {$0.00} to {$540.00} even though that amount was the subject of an active dispute and Id been advised by XXXX travel that it would be corrected.

XXXX violated the Fair Credit Report Act by failing to report that the amount was subject to an active dispute.

In 3 years, this is the THIRD time I have been assessed a no-show penalty fee after cancelling a reservation through the XXXX   Travel web portal. This is evidence of a systemic failure of XXXX that  it had ample time to remedy just based on my complaints and correspondence.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX, I started a withdraw of {$10000.00} ( from the sale of my cryptocurrency on their exchange ) from XXXX ( https : XXXX which is an arm of Coinbase ). This withdraw was to be a direct deposit into my XXXX XXXX XXXX account which I had used with them before. XXXX indicated that this would take a maximum of 10 days. The next day ( XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX ) I began a second withdraw of {$1200.00} to the same bank account. After about a week ( ~XX/XX/XXXX ), XXXX indicated that both transfers were " complete '' however I had received no funds and their transfer information said that the expected payout date and time was always the current time upon refreshing the page. I submitted a request to XXXX support on XX/XX/XXXX and only received an automated reply. It has now been more than 20 days since I initiated the withdraws and more than 10 days since I requested support from XXXX and received no reply or explanation. The withdraw info continues to indicated that the expected payout date and time is right now, but my bank shows no pending deposits. As a side note, I have used XXXX twice in the past and they only took a couple of days each time to complete the transactions ( each totaling {$10000.00} ). I have attached a picture of the transaction info XXXX provided for the two withdraws in question.

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Unisa, Inc
State: KS

Complaint narrative:
Was using XXXX as the previous student loan finance company, before my loan was transferred to Unisa. I never had any issues with payments being received by XXXX. However, with the current provider, I have had an issue every single time I have tried to make a payment, resulting in several " past due '' marks against me -- each time due to their computer system that repeatedly fails to handles the payments. I contacted the company by their email contact form, concerning their system continuously having errors. I never received a response. I mentioned the issue to the customer service representative when having to make a past due payment due to their system, again, to no resolution by the company. 

I have attached a screenshot of my account payments, all being late due to their faulty payment system. Only one payment with them had been made previous to what was shown in the screenshot and it was on time due to their system being completely inaccessible ( could not even log in ) the first time I attempted to use it -- so a call was made to make the payment. Every following time, I had access to the system, the system indicated that everything went through and was processed correctly, and then would later tell me it was past due and would have to call and make a late payment. 

The continuation of the issue and the disregard for it indicates that these errors may be intentional so that the consumers of their system will have more interest to pay them on the payments, resulting in purposeful inaccessibility and essentially a fraudulent payment system.

Company: SUNTRUST BANKS, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/XXXX ; I advised my mortgage company. that I was reviewing my XX/XX/XXXX escrow account online and advised them that they did not have my new insurance rate for the year. They had updated tax rate and even showed what my new payment would be starting XX/XX/XXXX and I was the one advising them of the new insurance rate. 
When I was transferred to the tax dept. and the new rate was put in which Went from {$680.00} per year to {$720.00} per year ; which is only a {$41.00} difference ; the new escrow was refigured and instead of charging me an increase in escrow of {$41.00} ; they were calculating a {$89.00} yearly increase. I asked why and they said that is to take care of projected increase for XX/XX/XXXX. 
I was tired of trying to explain that we are dealing with XX/XX/XXXX escrow and not XX/XX/XXXX. 
I have had problems in the past with this bank as they do not keep up with the tax and insurance information. 
They are very hard to communicate with as their employees have very little English skills. 
Please advise how I can get this corrected. 
Thank you.
