      I've filled out a self pay document back in 9/21, they're continually charging not only my insurance, but they're also charging me more than the self pay rate. I've been paying 117$ per session when it should be 99$. I've also had 1,250$ taken out of my account in the past 3 weeks with no notifications, breakdown of the bill or reasoning as to why it's happening. I've contacted them over the course of 3 months, and I've gotten nothing in return. I have no money for bills as they're taking everything out of my account and still charging the insurance even after I opted out in September.

      I have had multiple issues with this company overbilling me in lieu of several hundreds of dollars. Even after contacting them to resolve the issues, they've returned to overbilling me. I have had one appointment with them per month for the last three months, at a rate of $99, and they've charged me for those appointments ---and then charged me $300 more. This has happened multiple times, even after I've complained to them about the issues. As a mental health care provider, this is absolutely wrong and they should be avoided.

      I have provided thrive works with the insurance information to bill for treatment on 2 occasions. They have billed my bank twice over drawing my account. This issue has been brought to their attention on multiple occasions, where they addressed that they would fix it and refund me, and they still have not. They were also told they were not authorized to use the card on file any longer in writing due to their error twice. I've been advised I be refunded this money by 3 different employees Miracle, Erica and Sherelle but they keep billing the card. I would like them to refund my money and bill the insurance on file as they stated, they would do and correct the issue.

      I signed up with Thriveworks to get help. I didn't know there was a monthly subscription that will continue regardless of me ending the help I needed. I stopped getting their services a on Nov 2020 but the monthl subsciption kept going until my CC on file expired and I received a notificatoin from them that the monthly transaction failed. They could have kept charging me for years. I was no longer using their services but they keep on charging. THEY DON'T CALL YOU OR EMAIL YOU SEE WHY YOU ARE NOT USING THEIR SERVICE, THEY JUST CHARGE YOU. I called them 2 times and asked for my money back for hte months were I didn't use their services. They refused, I'm just one customer, what can I do to them, they can ignore me and move on.

      The customer will be reached out to in order to refund any money that was collected that should not have been. We will assist the customer in reclaiming any money that was billed incorrectly and then find the reason why the customer was continually billed.

      Thriveworks has been over charging me for mental health services. I paid a bill over $1000 covering services from December 2021 to April 2022. I found out through my insurance that they were charging me as self pay instead of my insurance without my knowledge from January 2022 to April 2022. I overpaid my bill for all of those services between that time and they continue to charge me for previous services. The date in question is February 18,2022. I want to know why I am still being charged for services I already paid for. Their billing department has now informed me that they never charged me as self pay, which is a blatant lie. I've attached the receipt that shows I've already paid and the current statement.

      On or around December 2021 I enrolled at Thriveworks counseling. After one appointment I learned that they were unable to assist me as they cannot practice in my home state of *************. I cancelled enrollment and have had no service or appointments since. Since this time, I have been getting billed randomly and multiple times every month, two to three times a month for amounts ranging from $20 to $80. Overall I've been billed approximately $300. Despite numerous phone calls, emails, and assurances that it's fixed I'm still continuing to be billed. The most recent billing was today (5/26/22) for $20.

      I was told upon scheduling an appointment and also it is listened on their website that sessions are only 99 without insurance and 29 with insurance. After they began secretly charging me 250 multiple times. I reached out to them and the billing department multiple times and this problem still continues, even after canceling my account and emailing and calling about this problem. I even had to reach out to my bank yo dispute these charges. They blatantly lie to the clients about fees and they don't alert before charging or even sending invoice or anything, even after being asked. This place takes advantage of people seeking help and that is wrong and they should be avoided. I will be contacting a lawyer because no one, especially people seeking help should be lied to and scammed.

      Hi, A little bit about me, My name is ******** *****, I'm 26, I'm disabled and I'm living of my monthly SSDI payments. I'm reaching out to the BBB for some help reviving a refund that I was already told I would receive by numerous employees at Thriveworks (I believe all phone calls are recorded). I keep calling and I am told that they can't do anything about the refund, that they can only see the transactions that were made and that in fact I do need a refund. All they are able to do is write an urgent email regarding my refund to the billing team and the supervisor. I have no way in getting in contact with the billing team or supervisor and keep being told I will get a email from them once they get the other team members email. This has effected me financially a lot. *Why A refund is required: I contacted on October, 2021. I contacted them because my Doctor, ***** **** referred me to ****** *****; an online counselor at Thriveworks. When I first reached out I was told that "here at Thriveworks we Strive to help you live a happy and healthier life". This sounded great, I called my insurance company to make sure that my copays would be affordable and was told it would be a $5 copay per visit with my counselor. I called Thriveworks back and told them I'd like to schedule an appointment with ****** *****. At the end of the call, after setting up my appointment, I was informed that there is a $39.00 monthly fee. I immediately explained that I would not be able to afford the monthly fee and was sorry but had to stop the process. After being put on a brief hold the employee came back after speaking with her supervisor and informed me that they will give me a 2 month free trial and said that they wanted to make sure I was able to get into therapy and money wasn't an issue. I was happy and proceeded with the process. The next step was they needed my debit card on file to charge me for the copays. I was again very reluctant but was told (full page in pictures I attached
