    on 2/19/25 I was contacted by ***** at CMC collections who demanded payment for a $690 and refused to say who it was from or what it was for. He finally stated it was from Lincare home health medical bill. Contacted *************** s/w ******* who said there wasn't a balance on my account and infact Lincare owed me $43.78. I called ***** at ***, who refused to listen and demanded payment. S/********* who said they (Lincare) had to submit a new payment code through to the collection agency which she said that they did. Received another call from ***** at collections demanding payment. I relayed to him what Lincare said which he refused to listen and when I asked for a supervisor he refused to transfer me and continued "how much are you going to pay on this bill?' ** 2/20 received another call from ***** at CMC collections who again, demanded payment (everything is recorded from both parties). I contacted ******* again and s/w ****** who siad the coded collection bill was submitted and my account should be cleared. I thought everything was finished until 3/1 when I received another call from ***** at *** demanding payment. I contact Fla. Lincare again who said it "takes time". This has going on and my health is being affected by this constant stress. I requested a letter from ******* stating that the account was clear, but instead was told "it takes time" and she "didn't have access to outside email to send me anything." She said this was taken care of but how could my account be cleared and the special code to stop collections sent when I continue to get calls from CMC?. I want my account out of *********************** and cleared. ******* stated that they sent the corrected code to CMC but I am still getting harassing phone calls.

    I was never notified about the debt in question, I contacted this company about resolving the debt, the woman on the photos rude and kept cutting me off while explaining that I had medical coverage the entire time and not responsible for this debt. They are hurting my credit for their mistakes and refuses to take any action to resolve this debt.I provided all of the information regarding the information to resolve this dabt and the lady lied about getting medical to cover the bill saying medical will not pay a bill over 90 days old. I spoke to my medical provider and they said all this company needs to do is resubmit the bill.This collection company would not even give me an account number, bill information it just demanded payment.This is unfair business practices.

    The Credit Management Company says they are trying to collect a debt of $1068 for **************************** who bought this debt from ************************************ who got the information from *************************** in **************, *******.. I dispute this amount because I have called the hospital who says I do not owe this amount, that my account is zero dollars. I called my insurance company and they sent me an *** stating that I do not owe this amount. I have sent copies of all this information to the Credit Management Company, ****************************, ******************************************, and ************************************ and this Credit Management Company still says I owe this amount.. I have made many many phone calls to get this taken care of and they do not listen which makes me think of identity fraud, and that this is a scam. I have no intention of paying this amount until my insurance company says I have to and they have already told me I don't. I never received a bill from the hospital either. I just don't know what to do anymore. My husband says to just file it and and forget it. If this hurts my excellent credit rating I will be justifiably upset. They all already have copies of the original letter from the Credit Management Company and the the *** and explanation of the ***'s from my insurance company.
