Complaint #1733233 submitted on 01/08/2016 relating to Jon Barry and Associates, Inc.. Complaint relates to Debt collection Medical - Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt is not mine.

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Friday 8th January 2016.

Narrative (may be redacted).

Sometime in 2015 I went to see a XXXX at XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX about a XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX wanted me to XXXX for 24 hours. I informed XXXX XXXX I had no insurance and could not afford the XXXX. XXXX XXXX gave me a form to take to XXXX XXXX for patient assistance. At XXXX XXXX I spoke to a XXXX XXXX who I specifically told if there would be any cost I could not have the procedure. She told me the hospital would cover the cost. Later when I received a bill from the hospital and a bill from the XXXX I called XXXX XXXX to ask why I was receiving bills at which time she told me that the financing had not caught up with the billing and I should just ignore the bills. Now I am receiving letters from a debt collector from the XXXX. I am being told that there was a XXXX who had to read the XXXX and that was who the bill was owed to. I asked XXXX XXXX why she had not informed me there would be a bill when I had specifically told her if there was ANY cost I could not have the procedure. She told me there was nothing she could do about it. I have no income and just a small amount of money to live on that I inherited and could not justify spending any money on this procedure, which I did initially inform XXXX XXXX of. No one ever mentioned to me at any stage there would be a bill from a XXXX or that one would be involved. I would have opted out of the procedure if I had been informed. I feel I was never given the choice.
