Complaint #1480337 submitted on 07/16/2015 relating to Account Recovery Specialists, Inc.. Complaint relates to Debt collection Medical - Disclosure verification of debt Not given enough info to verify debt.
Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Wednesday 22nd July 2015.
I have repeatedly contacted this company via e-mail in order to pay a debt placed by XXXX XXXX XXXX. Once I determined that I owed the debt, since the original bill they sent me was unclear, I contacted them on XXXX/XXXX/2015 requesting that if I pay the debt in full that they remove the account from my credit bureau. When I did n't hear back from them, I contacted them again on XXXX/XXXX/2015 by e-mail. Again, when I did n't hear from them, I contacted them on XXXX/XXXX/2015 with a final request. In this request, I stated if they did not address my request that I would need to turn the problem over to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the XXXX. This should be an easy request to address. Moreover, they should feel fortunate that I am paying this to begin with, because the physician at XXXX XXXX XXXX is overbilling me considering the services he provided. He saw me for about XXXX minutes, did n't run correct tests, and sent me away with medication that did n't even work for my problem. The hospital initially billed by insurance provider almost {$500.00} for his services, and they state I owe about {$250.00} of it despite paying my {$300.00} deductible at the time of service. The total bill was well over $ 3k. And when they billed me, they did n't even bill me correctly. They stated it was for XXXX services rather than physician services, which lead me to believe I had already paid the bill with the deductible. When they finally cleared it up, they placed it with a collection agency before I had the opportunity to pay it and failed to send me notification that stated they were going to place it with an agency. Then, when the collection agency initially billed me, they stated it was for the ER visit rather than disclosing the physician 's visit. Confusing to say the least.
