CMRE Financial Services, Inc. Debt Collection Complaint

CMRE Financial Services, Inc. Debt collection department,

Medical Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt was paid California

Collector CMRE Financial Services and - - -. Their practices of harassment and are met with antagonistic and unlawful procedures! Do n't go to - - Hospital as their billing practices are harassment and borderline unlawful. I went in for a covered procedure surgery with prior authorization. Even with Medi-CAL coverage they will pressure you to pay all before leaving. I have received a collection notice and called them and said I just spoke to Medi-CAL and they are processing the bill, and here is their contact information. Besides being met with an antagonist harassing person ( she said her name was - ), she asked if the number I was calling from was my cell phone. Fearing a trick to acknowledge my number, I hesitated, but remembered I 'm on the Do Not Call '' list and they cant call for collections as I have only a certain amount of minutes. She said she could n't go any further without my answer, and since I wanted them notified of the bill being processed, I confirmed. She then asked me if it was ok to call this number for collections. I said, ABSOLUTELY NOT! Within 1/2 hour of hanging up I 've been receiving multiple collection calls on this account! Sometimes using a different name ironically. Up to this point I have n't received - call from any collection services. Ironic? .. or do they pass the number along so they can skirt the law. Besides the terrible billing practices of - - HOSPITAL, I would n't recommend ANYONE going there. This is an obvious collection svc for the - department. The bill is not unpaid, as the billing is still going through Medi-CAL but that does n't stop the harassment by both - - Hospital and CMRE Financial Svc 's and - - -!
