Hollis Cobb Associates sent a debt collection letter to my 13 year old claiming that she owed a bill from a doctor for orthopedic services. They gave me a name of a doctor we had never seen and a date of service that does not exist anywhere. I called my doctor's ********************** and was informed we did not have an outstanding bill nor does the hospital use that billing company for collections. When I contacted Hollis **** they threatened to purse my minor daughter until the bill is paid. They are now harassing me with phone calls for a debt that does not exist. We've been going to the same hospital since my daughter was born. So there is no connection with this other doctor they are claiming.Business response
