    This was on my credit report since July 2015 which is now 7 years and 4 months for $236. I have contacted this company this year and was sent to a lady named ******** (phone# **********) who is supposedly the person I should be speaking to. I tried to speak to her about this account and she initially had no information to give me. She kept asking my bank information and would not listen nor give me any information. She then called me multiple times to "collect money" the last call i received she said "so you are not going to pay this?" i asked for information on this account she said "so no, bye." and hung up the phone. I then called right back and got her VM then I called again her "assistant" answered and asked if I was ***************************. I said yes I would like to speak to ******** she called me less than 2 minutes ago. Her assistant told me that she had left the office awhile ago. I left ******** a voicemail and she never gave me any information on this account. I want this charge-off to be removed from my credit report as soon as possible.

    I just recently looked at my credit profile and discovered that "Commercial Acceptance Co." is reporting a debt that does not belong to me. This is a medical debt, so not only have they not verified that it belongs to me but they also have not provided me my HIPAA authorization stating they have permission to have my medical information in the first place. I have sent dispute letters to "Commercial Acceptance Co." and have not received a response. Please remove this account from all credit bureaus (**********, *******, ********) immediately, as it is severely damaging my credit health. Opened: February 20th, 2019.Account #: ****************

    The complaint is that this company is a complete predator looking for money where it doesn't exist. I paid a medical bill over 4 years ago, there was a dispute with the insurance company not paying the claim which at that time *** sent the outstanding bill to collections. After talking with *** and fully going over the insurance claim they real;zed the bill was in error and the bill was paid in full. Commerical Acceptance has sent this claim 4 different times over the last 3 years to collections effecting my credit score over 40 points at each entry even though the bill was paid in full in June of 2019. I have contacted *** about what has happened and they assured me this would not happen again, *** cannot control what Commerical Acceptance will do and its only a matter of time that they do it again. I have had the collections taken off my credit report all 4 times and I would guess that they will do again. This is a predator company looking for quick money and I can only imagine how many elderly people they have swindled into just paying them to make it go away. I am not looking for any money or pursuing anything except this company should not be able to do what they are doing and get away with it.

    This company is calling about and harassing family members, trying to contact me - my number is not private, they have it. They have no right to be harassing family (and ex-family) members! First known event occurred today 8/11/22 when I was notified by a family member that they were called twice.

    We were unaware of a good contact number for the consumer so we were attempting to obtain location information only. We will have no further communication with the consumer per her request.

    I spoke with ***************** Hospital concerning my bill and received approval for financial assistance due to being a PhD student. I was informed by the supervisor that if I paid the remaining balance (45% or $602) from the original 1339, that the account would be brought back from collections and it would be closed. They said they have approval for commercial acceptance to close the account. Commercial acceptance needs to close this account as I had been informed on multiple occasions that it is closed and should no longer affect my credit. The original bill went to the wrong address and when I finally was able to apply for financial assistance and take care of it, I was informed would be closed immediately. I am furious at the irresponsibility of the agency to not follow through on their word and close the account.

    They are reporting an account on my credit report that I've never been contacted about. I have tried to contact them and they won't respond. I've disputed the account several times and they keep verifying it. These are unfair practices. If I've never received any information and they refuse to respond to inquiries through their website, how am I supposed to resolve it. The original delinquency date is 6/2015 and I'm tempted to just let it fall off. Ideally the company should remove it now. I don't have much info on the account 99* balance $633 medical/health
