Consumer Complaint: Since XXXX XXXX I have been working to resolve an inappropriate charge with XXXX XXXX XXXX, without success. In XXXX my account was sent to Transworld Systems Inc. debt collection agency. I contacted one of their representatives, XXXX XXXX, on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX in order to dispute this charge and was told that they would send a verification request to XXXX XXXX to verify these charges were correct. I never received further communication from Transworld. In the meantime I have been in further contact with the Patient Liason at XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I was told my account had been sent to the auditing department and I should hear a result in a few days. On XX/XX/XXXX I was told my account was still in audit but the debt collection agency had been notified and my account was placed on hold. This was the last communication I have received. On my XXXX XXXX credit report the Transworld debt has been reported, despite my account supposedly being on hold and neither company contacting me further. I have attempted to contact XXXX XXXX and still have not received a call back. I called Transworld who referred me to their credit report department, but every time I call that number I receive a busy signal. This incorrect charge has now impacted my credit score, despite my best efforts to resolve the issue, and neither company is working with me to resolve the issue.

Consumer Complaint: In a nutshell, this company is currently jeopardizing my ability to purchase a home by reporting a collection account for a medical bill that is not mine. I am fully insured ( I pay top dollar ) and have been for years. The medical bill in question occured on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and at some hospital in texas that I have never been to. Also, I live in los angeles. When I called the debt collector ( Transworld Systems ), they claim there was no social security number attached to the claim they picked up but a birth date in XXXX ; I was born in XXXX. I do n't know whose debt this belongs to but the mere fact that a collection account has been reported under my name for a service unassociated with me while my spouse and I are in the midst of a home hunt should be iiegal and I wish to seek damages. They are currently in the process of deleting the collection but the inconveience and potential money this may cost me should be criminal. People are exploited every day by these companies while the government turns a blind eye. I 've had enough.

Consumer Complaint: Federal or Private loan : I do n't know because this is a fraudulent loan that I never received. I have filed more then XXXX complaints over the same exact illegal, non existing student loans. I have never received these funds. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX has refused to validate the loan. They have lied multiple times including stating they were a candy shop to collect information. They have called my neighbors in attempts to locate me. They have treated to file a police report if I report them. I have already filed these complaints with the Federal Government. This loan is resurfacing. I also have these fraudulent loans showing up on my credit reports as " wright-offs ''. There has been zero accountability from any of the companies involved with collecting the money, selling the fraudulent loans to new companies, and no company has been required to provide information about the loan. I asked in XXXX ( before I graduated collection ) for proof of this loan. Instead of mailing me the fraud packet, the company sent me letters stating they would report me to the police for filling false charges. In XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and now XXXX, I have filed statements requesting this company prove these loans existed. There was only XXXX loan during this time, not XXXX loans. 100 % of the loan is currently at another bank. The loan is not late and the bank has not attempted to collect because I am still in college. This company has violated ( XXXX ) the fair credit report act XXXX XXXX XXXX the collections act. I seek damages for the destruction of my credit reports. I seek damages for the years and years of stress and humiliation. I can not even answer my phone because of these fake loans. XXXX time, the agent at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX acted as a client to book an appointment at my work. However, I have already been in contact with legal counsel and I plan on building a lawsuit against this bank.
