      This complaint is concerning a disputed medical bill that was not billed correctly by the hospital/doctor. Instead of correcting the issue, they would not listen to my complaint and turned it over to GLA. I have payed a small amount on this every month, first to the doctor/hospital, and I have been paying GLA every month as well, but they put a mark on my credit report anyway. I also have cancelled checks that prove this. This was disputed before GLA got a hold of it. I want the mark removed from my credit report.

      GLA has reviewed the account in question.  The account is in default and is being reported per our client's request.  Once the balance is paid in full, the trade line will be removed.  The balance is correct and due.

      On my credit report it states I have two accounts from GLA collections one for 643 and other 543. When going to Gla website entering my information there is only one item on there for 170.02. How can you put two collections for a wrong amount.

      I do not owe GLA Collections for any accounts, yet they harass you any time they decide to buy secondhand debt or create it for names and numbers they’ve also purchased.
