Talked to a third party about my debt
Complaint: I was contacted on XXXX/XXXX/2014 by the Medical Business Bureau ( MBB ), a debt collections agency, and was told that I owed a hospital bill for an ER visit to XXXX XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX TX for the date of XXXX/XXXX/2014. I was told by MBB that my insurance at the time, XXXX, paid {$110.00} towards this amount and the remaining balance ( {$700.00} ) was my responsibility. When I asked for a bill listing each charge, MBB could not provide it to me and said I should have already received the bill from XXXX XXXX XXXX, the medical billing company that handled separate charges for the ER visit on XXXX/XXXX/2014. When I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX, they said that the address they received from XXXX XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX, and the address that they sent their separate billing charges to, was also XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Tx, XXXX. Still, I must stress that I had not lived at this address for 2 years at the date of service, but they still forwarded the bill to the outdated address. The debt was then sold by XXXX XXXX XXXX to MBB who then contacted me by phone to collect the debt. The amount of the debt XXXX XXXX XXXX said that I owed was {$440.00}, but when they sent my debt to collections ( MBB ), MBB said that I owed {$700.00}. How could I owe MBB {$260.00} more than the debt that XXXX XXXX XXXX said I owed? Was MBB charging interest on the debt that they collected from XXXX XXXX XXXX?
I contacted XXXX XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX and they admitted that they forwarded the bill to an outdated address. I asked XXXX XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX why they did not contact me by phone, mail, or email to confirm my address for the bill. I know at the date of service that I gave XXXX XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX my most current address, XXXX XXXX XXXX . XXXX . XXXX, XXXX, Tx, XXXX. For some reason, XXXX XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX had XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX . XXXX XXXX Tx XXXX on file for my guarantor, my father. When they did the billing for the XXXX/XXXX/14 visit, they sent the bill to an outdated address. This amount in question ( {$700.00} ) should have never gone to a collections agency. I am beyond upset with XXXX XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX for billing me to an outdated address and also upset with XXXX XXXX XXXX for billing to the same outdated address. I have already contacted MBB through a complaint with the XXXX and they are issuing me a refund and closing my account with them, but I am submitting this complaint to make other people aware of the medical billing errors that XXXX XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX made. A billing error that has caused me months of stress, frustration, and numerous calls of harrassment from MBB to collect this debt. I will not use XXXX XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX or any affiliate again in the future. I will also post to every consumer protection agency I can about the serious inconvenience that I have had to deal with for the past year.

Debt is not mine
Complaint: This company continues to report on my credit report after I sent them a letter telling them that this account was not mine and I have no idea what it is or who it belongs to!
I asked for proof of a signed contract, I asked for a license to collect in my state, I asked for copies of all information referenced for this debt and still to date, I have not received anything but harassment from this company!
THIS IS NOT MY DEBT!
I WANT THIS ACCOUNT REMOVED FROM MY CREDIT REPORT AND THIS COMPANY TO STOP CONTACTING ME IMMEDIATELY!

Hinsdale, IL
Right to dispute notice not received
Complaint: I have received several collection calls from Medical Business Bureau ( " MBB '' ), alleging that I owe {$150.00} for medical services rendered on XX/XX/XXXX. The most recent call was on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX. According to MBB 's representative, this debt is associated for the medical services of XXXX XXXX XXXX.
I have called the doctor 's office, but they do not have a record of services rendered. In fact, the office claims that the doctor was not with the practice in XXXX. I have requested a verification of debt from MBB, but they have not produced one. I expressed all my concerns to MBB representatives, but they do not have answers, nor do they care.
MBB is, however, reporting negative information on my credit reports, which is impeding my ability to obtain credit.
MBB is also not following the requirements of the FDCPA. I never received notice of the debt as required by 15 USC 1692g. On Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX, I faxed a dispute and requested a verification of the debt -- that letter is attached. MBB has failed to produce anything in response. But the phone calls have stopped -- perhaps because the proof does not exist.
I am requesting that MBB cease all collection efforts and remove any negative information from my credit reports. I would like confirmation that this information has been removed.
Company Response: Company believes it acted appropriately as authorized by contract or law Closed with explanation
