Question

I got a ct scan and paid cash for it, now the doctor's office keeps bothering me and want me to pay more, I have talked to them and they say that what I payed for was just a deposit but they never told me I had to pay more than I did before. Now they are threatening to screw up my credit score, what should I do?

Answer

Difficult to say.... Many times you sign things in a Dr's office. Is so what did it say? If not they cannot screw up you credit score...to mess up your credit it has to go to a collector or a judgment... A letter demanding verification that it was only a deposit would be the best step. Letter from lawyer may be more forceful.
