Rude rude rude! My claim was thru UMC. My California based insurance was going to pay the claim as soon as UMC provided an itemized bill, which they never did. I kept calling UMC to check on the status. They turned the bill over to allied which I kept in touch with keeping them informed. After countless phone calls to UMC and Allied my bill was paid in full on AUG. 12, 2013. AT the end of August Allied reported my bill to the credit bureaus as unpaid and in collections. WTF. When calling Allied to ask them to report it paid they were very rude and redirected the blame on everyone else. We shall see if they follow thru on their word on retracting the status from my credit Report.
