But I do not want to pay something I do now owe. They stated that they delivered medicine to us and it was not paid for. Not true. MPLAN who was my insurance before they went under said Chartwell was overbilling us and made them send us a check for 400- they went under several months later and Chartwell started calling us. chartwell of Indianapolis is turning over a 530.00 debt on us that we do not owe- this is from 2006- how can we fight it, the debt is that low a lawyer to fight it would cost more.

We ignored it for the longest time, but eventually got so annoyed that we called the collection agency. The debt belonged to somebody else and we could never figure out how they got our name.

I heard one story of a collector called the wife and said, “Why would you stay married to a man that is a deadbeat who can’t pay his bill?”
