    looking for recommendations on some medical collections I just spotted on my report..they are pretty recent, and I honestly had no idea I owed any medical bills.
    $60 dollars
    $150 dollars
    $105 dollars

    Im guessing these are amounts that my health insurance did not cover/pay.
    gheez.

    should I attempt to call them and reason with them , maybe tell them I will pay them if they remove them from my report? That approach has never worked for me, but I could try it if you 'experts' think it is a good tactic ;p

    thanks!

    There are two on my husbands report , one of which I know is not his and I disputing it (One as already paid directly to creditor and the other not his)I would disput it first through the CRA's. Small collections sometimes never get verifyed and thus fall off your report.

    I sent the validation letter to mine just like any other collection, and then dispute with CRA after green card arrives :)

    Just know that since they are recent they will try to collect. All of mine are paid collections from 2-4 years ago.
