I have had the horrible misfortune like many others of dealing with these awful people and practices. Where do I begin?? First of all my 1 yr old daughter had a hospital visit in Oct. 2010. My daughter is fully insured yet the hospital had the incorrect information to input which led to this being passed off to audit and adjustment. In August 2011 I received a phone call at work stating I had an outstanding balance. I called them and gave them the correct insurance information which they said they would input, yet they never did. A week later I had a knock at the door it was a SERVER!! I called immediatley and said I gave you the information why is this happening. They hadn't sent the insurance information. Now they said ok well we will submit the insurance information (the insurance then paid the bills). I then get a notice in the mail stating I owe $850.00 worth of fees??! Fees for your stupid desk employees who don't know top from bottom not submiting the info. UNBELIEVABLE. So I decided I would not pay the incredible fees and let it continue on with the court case that they had already submitted so I could fight it. Now let me explain if it came down to it and the insurance wouldn't pay the bills I would have as a responsible parent paid the bills. Although I am not rich we are a one income family I would have come up with it. I WILL NOT pay fees that I do not deserve to have. I truly believe they do not contact people on purpose so they can get all of these fees incurred. Ok let's fast forward I am now in November. I receive something in the mail stating I am being garnished for all of the fees. So i figured I would get a court date if I wanted but Noooo nothing. They began taking my money in November and still are today Dec 21st. So my employer goes to send the checks to the Snohomish County Courthouse. And guess what happens? They get sent back stating there is no record of this garnishment and the garnishment has not been approved nor signed by a judge. Hmmm very interesting I knew they were shady individuals but I didn't realize this shady. So I do everything I can call the court house look it up online there is no record what so ever. So I called audit and adjustment today on a recorded line stating the courthouse has no record of this and I would like proof that this is a legally entered judgement. Pam tells me NO I say Why?? ""Because it's been filed"" what does that mean? We're talking about my life here I should be able to have each and every document I desire. Not to mention she was incredibly rude on the phone along with everyone else that works there. So I guess we'll find out Friday morning what happens when my lawyer goes down to the court house. I have already opened a case with the better business bureau I have NO IDEA how they have an A+ with all the cases open and bad reviews except they're probably paying to have their name on their site so why would they give them a lower rating if they're making money off them. I mean it's Christmas time and they're taking 25% of my money they could care less about anyone or anything but their money hungry selfs. But I made a promise to myself that my daughter's Christmas would NOT suffer at all because of these disgusting people. I despise these people and what goes around comes around losers. I am truly sorry for anyone who is currently dealing with them or in the future. But let me tell you I am trying really hard to get justice for all of us that are being screwed by these people so let's all hope they're doing this illegally so they'll be taught a lesson and forced to change their ways. AND if you are being garnished verify everything with a fine tooth comb because you never know what they're doing or willing to do when it comes to money hungry people like this. WATCH OUT. If you can't afford an attorney and you think something is wrong call 211 they'll get you a free or very inexpensive one. Good luck all.
