These debt collectors violated the ***** by engaging in abusive, deceptive, and unjust practices. They provided this account in violation of our agreement, and I did not affix my signature to it. Two parties are required to sign a legally binding contract; I did not take any part in the signing process. Furthermore, in noting my dispute of the account(s), they failed to adhere to the correct procedure, which is a clear violation of 15 USC 1692e(8) and constitutes unjust business practices. Unjust business practices, third-party communication, and other violations caused by these debt collectors use of abusive language in correspondence with me while attempting to collect on an alleged debt. Complaints with the Attorney General and The ************************ (***) have been filed, dispute letters have been mailed to this debt collector; supporting documentation will be furnished. I demand that this company removes my account(s) from all three credit reporting agencies due to the violations or I will have no choice but to forward this to my litigation attorney.Business Response

I'm submitting this formal complaint regarding a charge-off account reported by ********************************************* (account ending in *********), opened on 10/01/2022, with a balance of $271.00, and currently appearing on my credit report as a derogatory item. I am disputing this account on the grounds that it is inaccurate, unverifiable, and unfairly damaging to my creditworthiness.I have repeatedly asked both the credit bureaus and Daniels Jewelers to provide documentation that substantiates this debt, including a signed contract, complete billing history, and itemized charges that would prove I owe this amount. To date, no such documentation has been provided. Simply stating that the account is verified is not enough under federal law. According to 15 U.S.C. 1681i(a)(1)(A) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (****), a consumer reporting agency must perform a reasonable reinvestigation within 30 days after a dispute is filed. Without the production of original and legally binding evidence, the reinvestigation cannot be deemed reasonable or complete.Moreover, under 15 U.S.C. 1681i(a)(5), any item found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable must be promptly deleted. Continuing to report this account without real proof is a violation of my consumer rights and a failure to comply with federal law. It is not my responsibility to disprove a debt that cannot be proven in the first placeit is the burden of the data furnisher and reporting agency to verify the item with actual evidence.If Daniels Jewelers and the credit bureaus cannot produce full, original, and verifiable documentation proving this $271.00 account is valid and lawfully attributed to me, I am demanding its immediate removal from my credit reports. I am also prepared to escalate this complaint to the ************************************ (****) and explore legal action under 15 U.S.C. 1681n for willful noncompliance and continued reporting of inaccurate information.Business Response

Im filing this formal complaint regarding the continued and misleading reporting of a paid charge-off account from S M C/Daniels Jewelers, account ending in ***********, originally opened on 05/01/2019, and currently showing a $0.00 balance and no past due amount on both Experian and Equifax credit reports.While this account has been fully resolved and carries no outstanding obligation, it continues to be reported with a derogatory charge-off status. This is unjustified and creates a deceptive narrative about my financial reliability. Reporting a $0 balance as a charge-off is inherently misleading and misrepresents the actual standing of the account. There is no delinquent debt owed, so maintaining this derogatory label unfairly damages my creditworthiness and violates the principles of accurate reporting.Under 15 U.S.C. 1681i(a)(1)(A) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), I have the right to dispute any information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable. Once disputed, the credit bureaus are legally required to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation. Furthermore, 15 U.S.C. 1681e(b) requires the credit reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy in the data they provide. Reporting a settled account as a charge-off is neither accurate nor fair.Despite multiple prior disputes, neither Experian nor Equifax has provided any documentation to justify why this account should still reflect a negative status after being paid. If they cannot provide such documentationincluding original contracts, final payment records, and any agreement outlining the charge-off statusthey must delete or correct the account per 15 U.S.C. 1681i(a)(5).This inaccurate reporting has affected my access to credit, housing, and other opportunities. If this is not corrected promptly, I will escalate this to the ************************************, ***, and consider legal action under 15 U.S.C. 1681n for willful noncompliance with federal law.Business Response

Received a bill for $2k plus dollars at Daniels jewelry for something I didnt buy. Ive never even been to a Daniels store. Called to report it as fraud and it was taken off. They then demanded I go to a notary and use my own money to do so. I told them I would be willing to go to any of their stores local to me to address it and show my license and sign whatever they needed to there. They refused my offer and I havent heard from them since. I locked my credit completely to avoid future fraud as well. Then today I received an experian notification that they have put it back on my credit. They clearly have a lot of issues with fraud because they are so desperate to sell things that they offer credit to anyone. I contacted my attorney and will be seeing them in court. Do not do business with these people ever. Completely dishonest and scammers.Business Response

We take all fraud allegations seriously and handle them in strict accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). To begin investigation, the FCRA requires the consumer to submit a valid poof of identity along with a formal identity theft report (e.g., police report, or FTC affidavit)
The consumer has refused to provide required documents. Without verification of identity and supporting evidence, we are unable to proceed with the investigation.
