There charges were forced on to me by a company (Appliance Warehouse) throughout the year 2023, without providing functional washer and dryer.In the past 18 months, I have been making payments to them without fail. The business committed to provide me a washer and dryer which are in working condition.But when I raised a complaint about washing machine not working in Feb 2023, they replaced it with another non-functional one in April 2023, but they charged for the entire duration. I called back several time asking to replace but they neven responded to me, finally they picked their non working washer and dryer in July 2023 or early Aug 2023. But they illegally charged me for 5 months when the washer and dryer are sitting in a non-functional state. They continue to threaten me that my case will be handed over to collection, without discussing the issue of illegally charging my account and forcing me to pay.I do not have any other kind of service agreement with appliance warehouse where I agreed to pay for non-functional equipment.I want to fight these cowards including the collection company (RS CLARK and Associates), which did not attempt to solve the issue, whose sole aim to report to collections for which I don't give a **** about either of those two companies. If you look at my payments history, it's been prompt everytime, why will i take so much pain for just $300, I don't want these idiots to win by doing these illegal practices.Business response

I recently pulled my credit report and notice there was a collection that I have no knowledge of and doesnt relate to any transaction made by me. I have been reaching and am fully aware that a debt collector must send me written communication prior to furnishing anything to a consumer reporting agency. I have not received a single piece of mail form this company I only became aware of them when I saw the collection on my consumer report. I sent a letter to the company requesting validation of these unknown debt and I have yet to receive any communication from them. It has come to my attention that you have violated several provisions of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), specifically 15 U.S. Code **** because they didnt validate the debt and 15 U.S. Code ****f for false and misleading reporting furnishing to my report without following FDCPA guidelines. They have engaged in false misleading reporting by saying I owe a debt without providing any supporting documentation or evidence to validate the legitimacy of this alleged debt. The lack of information provided by violates my rights under the ****** which require that debt collectors provide clear and accurate information regarding the debt. The actions taken by this company are unfair practices under 15 U.S. Code ****f. By attempting to collect a debt without providing proper validation and verification. They have caused me and my family unnecessary distress and anxiety. These actions are not only unjust but violate the ****** which explicitly prohibits unfair practices in debt collection.I never received written verification of the alleged debt within five days of communication. To date, I have not received any such validation or verification from the company. This failure to comply with the statutory requirement deprives me of my rights as a consumer and further strengthens my claim that your actions are in violation of the ******Business response
