CIR has been harassing my father-in-law, an 87-year old cancer patient, for three years, over an alleged debt owed to GE Retail Bank. My father-in-law took out a loan for dental implants for my mother-in-law, who was too sick to undergo surgery. No work took place, and he never received any money. It was transferred directly to the vendor from an entity called CareCredit.

The dentist has produced documentation that it refunded the money (there is a problem with the total, but that seems to be a problem between CareCredit and the dentist), which we provided to Mark Bennett at CIR. Instead of pursing the issue with CareCredit, Mr. Bennett seems to want my husband to resolve it. How are we supposed to document CareCredit's transactions that do not involve the consumer? When we called to get the name of the firm's president to escalate the problem in writing, the receptionist refused to give it to us.

CIR continues to harrass a dying man for a debt he doesn't owe, and obviously gets enough complaints that it doesn't want to disclose the names of senior management.
