Hi Everyone,
I had three past due medical bills that had all gone to collections that I finally was able to pay off last October. I called the original creditors to verify the amounts before I sent payment since the CA amounts on my credit report didn't match what I thought I owed. Well, the CA found out that I was planning to pay these off (One of the OC's called them when I was on hold to question the discrepancy) and filed suit the very same day! Of course I wasn't aware of the lawsuit yet cause I wasn't served until about three weeks later. I had already sent out my payments.
