Complaint / Review
Kaplan University
Threatened Me To Collecton Agency! Fort Lauderdale

I attended Kaplan University online for 2 semesters. I had to drop out due to income problems and health isssues.

I paid them in full with the last bill they sent me. $786.00.

4 months latter they sendme a bill for $75.00. I wrote them and told them that I paid them off. I heard nothing. Now 2 months later they send me a bill for $95.00.

This time I recieved an email stating that I owed this money.

I wrote back and told the person that I paid in full. He sent me this:
This is considered a refusal to pay and like I stated, your ledger balance clearly states that you did not pay the full balance owed and that is not a Kaplan error and nor did we add to your balance any charges. Please make sure to post the ledger balance that clearly shows you did not pay the balance owed to us and you refused to take the responsibility to pay us. From: Cinda Wilson [mailto: cinda.

Okay then why did it go from $75.00 to $95. If you are not adding charges? This is BS! Send it to collections! I don't care and believe me I will post this school on the internet and blogs to keep innocent people away from you thieves!

As clearly shown to you in the Balance Summary I sent to you,
you never paid the balance in FULL and there has been no
additional charges made on your account from the last payment
received. The account will be sent to an outside collections
agency in less than two weeks, please submit payment immediately
to avoid this showing as a bad debt 7-10 years on your credit bureau.
