I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below
Good Morning, Would you please re-open or look into case ***?My wife is copied, she is authorized to see all communications if that is a question. Apria Health is either incompetent or dishonest, they have not kept to their word again. We visited the local Apria Health office here in *** *** ** a few weeks back and they would not take back the packaged (CPAp Machine) supplies were billed for and for which we were told a label would comeMore bills came instead, which are unexplained also, my wife said. The agreement I had was that the case could be closed IF they stopped billing us and worked with the insurance companies. We may owe them some balance and will pay that ONCE they take back the supplies that *** in their *** ** said they would do and credit us the amountHis boss was in a meeting he said that day and couldn’t speak to usThen two weeks later, he was on vacation we were told. Whether incompetent or dishonest, Apria Health’s rating should reflect their lack of integrity and disregard for customers and the public should be warned. Keep my complaint open please and contact me soon as possible via e-mail so I know some (further) action is being taken. Thank you, *** and *** *** *** ***

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below
I was contacted by the company who told me that the only record of conversation they had was my initial call and the call in JanuaryThe second call when I was contacted by an Apria Healthcare representative and I rejected the *** that converseration cannot be foundI was also told by person who called they he was going to looked into it, judging from his respond he never did. I spoke to my insurance company who said that I don't owe anything as it was taken from my deductablesMy Insurance company also advise me to file a claim with Consumer Reporting Agency, after I explain this issueBased on the information I received from my Insurance Company it seem that Apria file a cliam with my insurance company after I refused to payMy complaint is based on principle and how these healthcare agency can manipulate the system for their own benefitIf a customer refuse to pay for an item in the initial call, why do you still proceed to process the order and now when its time to admit they were wrong that recorded conversation is not available.I have never received a bill from my Insurance company only bills from Apria Healthcare, therefore if I don't owed Apria Healthcare why are they sending bills and why did they send it to collection?

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me. I will wait for the business to perform this action and, if it does, will consider this complaint resolved. I have received my nebulizer finally My hope in the future that when other customers or myself call Apria that they work on their customer service I will still need to use this company for supplies and I don't want to have to go thru this again The biggest issue I had was being transfered, and hung up on Again this is a matter of peoples health and should not be played with

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.The agent did not inform me that the $was an estimate and did not mention anything about a deductible. I did not authorize any other payments or amount period and to say that the agent got a verbal confirmation. This shows me that this company and its agents have very little integrity.On 9/13/I called Advance Sleep Apnea and was on the phone minutes and my order was completed. I received my supplies on 9/15/and was not charged any co-pay or deductible.I am glad I found this company out and will never use them again or refer any one to them. When I placed my order I had to wait minutes for an agent to come on line and today when I went to the office in El Segundo the secretary and I had to wait on line another minutes. This company does not believe in customer service.I need to be compensated for my money being held hostage for days and all the emotional stress I was put through. They tell me I have to wait to days for my refund check after they snatched their money off the top the same day. DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEMDO UNTO YOU!
