Complaint: 20233838
I am rejecting this response because:The agreement made on 6/23/23 to pay Midwest Receivable Solutions, LLC is not an acknowledgment of a contract between myself and Midwest Receivable solutions, LLC. The agreement was only made under the pretense that I had a contract between myself and Midwest Receivable solutions for an original debt owed to them. If no such contract can be provided, I do not agree to pay the amount requested as I am not liable and as previously stated I would like the collection to be removed from my credit report.
Sincerely,
**********************************************Business Response
Date: 06/26/2023
as previously stated, verification of the debt from the original creditor, *********** will be forwarded to you upon receipt from ***********.
Once the account is paid in full, TransUnion, Equifax and Experian will be notified the debt is resolved.
As this is for utility service, there is no written contract and does not apply.

4/13/2023 ************** contacted our office and said he Paid the account to a different agency. ************** was informed at that time we do not buy nor sell accounts. the account was placed with our company by the original creditor for collection recovery. The account was recalled by the original creditor on 1/26/2023 and potentially placed with a different agency. Because we were no longer assigned the account, the credit reporting companies on 2/16/2023 to remove our account information from ************** credit report.
************** did admit he did not know who was on his credit. Midwest Receivable Solutions did complete an expedited request on 4/13/23 to ********************* and Equifax to remove the account information from his credit report although is highly unlikely our account was still on ****************** credit.
all action was taken to assist ************* on 4/13/2023

I WAS INVOLVED IN A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT WHICH LEFT ME IN THE HOSPITAL FOR 3 weeks with 9 broken ribs punctured lung and a broke shoulder. Upon my release my insurance company entered into a contract with Binsons Home Health Centers for $247 to provide after care equipment. I had two (2) insurance medical and car insurance in which both paid 100% as I was told. There was a lot of back and forth about who was to be billed. I spoke with ******* during this time I told them several times to submit for billing and they assured me my accident insurance would cover me 100% and my secondary health insurance would also be used if there were any problems. I was trying to heal and get better and I kept contacting ******* to inform them to bill my insurance due to the nature of the accident. I kept getting the run around about this was an accident and State Farm had the claim I gave the claim number several times then it was submitted to ********** Blue Shield at one point both had submitted payment but because Binsons seem to be double billing they had issue as I was told. I explained to Binsons I pay my premium for insurance and my coverage is 100% and that they need to submit billing properly. Then I apply for credit and learn I have an account in collections a bill that should have been paid had they submitted it properly. I didnt owe because I had insurance. Midwest had been reporting negative and showing collections. When I never entered into a contract with Midwest Recovery nor do I owe them anything I want this removed from all credit bureaus as its damaging my credit. Had Binsons properly billed the right insurance and reached out to me when it was denied because they submitted to both THATS NOT MY FAULT. Midwest Needs to remove this from my credit reports and bureaus. I do not owe them anything.Business Response
