What I’m really trying to figure out is whether they were actually supposed to send me some kind of notice before they just went ahead and charged me.
It looks like I'll have to deal with Medicare directly. But honestly, if this turns out to be some kind of clerical error—what's the actual move there? Like, what's the official process to get my money back?
Could someone give me a quick breakdown on this?
Hey there,
I could really use some advice here.
Last Friday by total surprise I logged into my online banking and saw that funds had been seized by the clearinghouse. I’m heading down to their office this Monday to figure out what on earth is going on—it looks like a forced collection for some debt owed to the Social Security Administration. When I asked who exactly was initiating the levy, they told me I’d have to pay a fee just to get a printed copy of the seizure order to find out. Apparently, the creditor is the Social Security Administration, acting through a notary public regarding an outstanding claim from June of last year.
However, I’ve been emailing back and forth with the Social Security Administration, and they’re telling me I don't owe them a dime. In fact, they claim I actually have a $5 credit sitting there, especially since the policy in question was canceled way back in July 2012.
Isn't a notary supposed to send some kind of formal warning or notice before they just go after your money like this?
What am I supposed to do now that the money is already gone? Should I be filing a formal complaint with the notary or directly with the Social Security Administration?
Thanks for any help you can give!
