Issue: Struggling to pay your loan

Subissue: Lender trying to repossess or disable the vehicle

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2023 I was in an auto accident with the vehicle and the police towed the vehicle because it was inoperable. I was told by my auto insurer that I needed the police report in order to file a claim. Unbeknownst to me this info was incorrect. I filed a claim with my auto insurer. However, the day before my insurance company was due to pick up the vehicle Ally Bank, the finance company, repossessed the vehicle because they said the vehicle had been in the impound lot for more than 10 days. My insurance adjuster and I have called and emailed Ally Bank numerous times with no avail. Unfortunately, I have been hospitalized twice since the accident. I also have not been able to pay my XXXX payment and now Ally states {$2900.00} which includes XXXX 's payment, late fees, impound fees, and repossession fees. I was told that I had until XX/XX/XXXX to make this payment. When I asked about how I could get my insurance adjuster to have access to the vehicle so that it could be adjusted I was given another phone number and told that I needed to call them in order to give my insurance company access. Below is a list of names, emails, and phone numbers I have gathered from Ally since XX/XX/XXXX. Ally XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX and remarketing XXXX XXXX Ally Insurance claims XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX md XXXX, MD Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX option XXXX XXXX department Total Loss request a release XXXX XXXX XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX Insurance dept XXXX XXXX Unfortunately none of these names numbers and emails have helped us with our issue.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: Account opened : XX/XX/XXXX I have had some issues with paying on time and my car was respossed but I had it reinstated. I am back on track and making regular payments every 2 weeks. Ally Auto has been reporting my account on my credit report as closed. This is not true. I have emailed them about the issue. They responded that I needed to call. I called and they said they could not help me and gave me the same phone number I had just called. I emailed them again today. I received an email today XX/XX/XXXX from XXXX XXXX that indicated my score went down. When I looked at what changed, it said that Ally reported between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX that my account was closed. They also added the following remark : Consumer disputes after resolution Redeemed or reinstated repossession Fixed rate. My car is not repossessed and the account is not closed. This is hurting my credit score and my chances of helping my son get a parent loan for college this fall.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: My loan for my car payment is showing a past due amount of {$590.00}. I made a payment of {$220.00} on XX/XX/23 and this payment should be applied for half of the payment for the month of XXXX. I should not be past due of {$440.00} for the month of XXXX. These funds were not applied to the account correctly. I have reached out to the customer service dept several times regarding this issue, and nothing have been resolved. I talk to a supervisor XXXX ID # : XXXX ( Customer Solution Team ) on XX/XX/23 and was told my payment that was made will be allocated correctly and was waiting for payment to clear. I also was told from supervisor XXXX that she was advised from the payment research dept that nothing needed to be done and everything will be applied correctly. So, as of now my account is still not correct at all. I have been having the worst experience with Ally Financial for many years. This company does not take the initiative to assist their customers about their issues nor to investigate the problem. Also, I was told I had two more payments remaining on the account and it still shows an outstanding balance of {$8800.00}. I would like for this issue to be escalated higher up to the CEO, because no one in customer service is not willing to assist.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone

Consumer Complaint: Ollo/Ally Acct ending XXXX. My account is currently and ALWAYS has been in Exceptional standing. I was NEVER late, I NEVER missed a payment, paid MORE than required and NEVER went over the limit. As a matter of fact, because I kept my account in such an OUTSTANDING status, I have received TWO AUTOMATIC credit limit increases in less that 1 year! However, from the very beginning, you consistently, fraudulently reported this account to the Credit Reporting Agencies as having MISSED payments, NO payments, and being OVER THE LIMIT. You gave me an increase, did not report it to the CRA 's. When I disputed the incorrect balances & credit limit, you corrected it. Then 3 days later, you subtracted the increase on my credit report. Even after I REPEATEDLY disputed all false, inaccurate information, you CONTINUOUSLY and DISHONESTLY responded, saying your credit reporting was verified and ACCURATE. This is an act of FRAUD because you KNOWINGLY and INTENTIONALLY reported false, inaccurate information about me & my finances to all the major credit reporting agencies. You also withheld information, by refusing to report my payments. My score dropped DRASTICALLY, due to you FRAUDULENTLY reporting my account being OVER THE LIMIT 2 months in a row. When I applied for credit, I was denied, because this FALSE, INACCURATE information was seen by other companies. You have violated my consumer rights and broken so many consumer laws. To prove you violated me, Every single one of those FRAUDULENT, FALSE, INACCURATE reports and statuses were FINALLY REMOVED AND CORRECTED by you, on all the 4 major credit reporting agencies reports. I DESERVE to be compensated for these violations. This has been BEYOND stressful and EMBARRASSING!
