    Greetings,

    The original creditor can assign delinquent debts to third-party collection agencies to collect the debts on their behalf. While the consumer did not create a contract with ****, the original creditor has the right to assign the unpaid debt for collection. This is what gives **** the ability to collect the outstanding debt.
    Despite our several communications with the consumer, we have not been able to resolve the debts with them. We have verified with the original creditor that the accounts remains outstanding. We will consider this BBB complaint as a dispute and mail out verification of the debts to the address listed. Should the consumer wish to discuss or resolve the debts, we encourage them to contact our office.

    Regards,

    DRSI

    I made a payment to them of $802 to cover a medical debt but they will not issue me a receipt (that details the charges and confirms payment), which I need. I have called several times and they have promised to send me one and they have not. Instead they have sent letters that have no information.

    Greetings,

    This appears to an identity theft claim rather than a complaint. The consumer should provide the required documents in order for Cedars Sinai to begin their ID theft investigation. 

    1. Police report or FTC ID theft affidavit

    2. Copy of state issued ID and social security card

    3. Written and signed statement of what happened. 

    We recommend that these documents be submitted directly to our office.
