Issue: Getting a loan or lease

Subissue: Fraudulent loan

Consumer Complaint: I sent a request for information on my loan and did not get my concerns addressed, The financing company sent back a letter stating call for clarification, however every time I call I am rerouted to a different department and not able to get any XXXX to resolve my issues or concerns about the debt owed. if I try to access the account online sometime my access is restricted and at this very moment it displays that I can only speak to a representative over the phone but when I call, I am never able to get to the department that will assist me, I have asked for a supervisor XXXX today on XX/XX/2023 over XXXX times and a few agents hung up on or transferred me back to the automated system. this company does not want to help consumers and should be sued. I am not interested in mediation as I have tried for months to get a resolution to my concerns. I have my phone log and screenshots of not being able to log into the online portal at times and the chat option not being available for me to chat with a live agent and also not being able to select the amount of payment I'd like to pay ( being forced to select a certain payment amount )

Issue: Money was not available when promised

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: On XXXX XXXX, 2023 I made a XXXX transfer from my Ally saving account to my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX checking account for {$1800.00} and another transfer on XXXX XXXX, 2023 from my Ally saving account to my to my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX checking account for {$290.00}. I never had any issues with XXXX in the past, so I didn't think anything of it, until on XXXX XXXX, 2023 I realized I never received either amount in my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX checking account. So I disputed the XXXX transaction with Ally on their website and they warned me saying it would take 10 days to do an investigation. They credited my savings account for the transactions on XX/XX/2023. We then received a letter from Ally dated XX/XX/ 2023 stating that they found no errors and saying the transaction was complete and that they would withdraw the money from our savings account on XX/XX/2023. Alas, we were out-of-town and therefore didn't come across the letter from Ally until XX/XX/2023. I checked the Ally savings account and sure enough it was withdrawn and I checked the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX checking account and it still was never deposited. So on XXXX XXXX, 2023, I called Ally and spoke with XXXX in Disputes and explained the situation and he recommended that I contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to see if they can see anything. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and spoke with XXXX. Realizing that my issue was more of an online banking issue, he transferred me to XXXX. XXXX stated that she didnt see anything on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX end of things and so I called Ally again and spoke with XXXX and gave her the case # XXXX that XXXX gave me. I told her that even though it says that it is complete I never received it and I can show proof by showing my bank statement. She recommended I submit my proof through Allys secure messaging online. So I submitted my XX/XX/2023 bank statement from my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX checking account with the following statement to Ally through their secure messaging... _______ This is regarding case # XXXX. Attached is our checking account bank statement with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ending in XXXX showing proof that I ( the recipient of the XXXX transfers : {$1800.00} and {$290.00} ) never received the funds, but the funds are still withdrawn from my Ally savings account # ending in XXXX. Attachments XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Statement XXXX Transaction Disputes XXXX _______ XXXX with Ally called and left a message on XX/XX/2023 giving Reference # XXXX and asked to call them back at XXXX. So I did on XX/XX/2023 and the lady who answered said that Ally tried to send a dispute letter, but the letter bounced back. Apparently, they have my wrong address saying XXXX instead of XXXX. She said she would get it corrected on their end and send the letter back out. As of XX/XX/2023, the only letter I've received from Ally was the letter dated XX/XX/ 2023 stating that they found no errors and saying the transaction was complete and that they would withdraw the money from our savings account on XX/XX/2023 She also asked if Ive contacted XXXX yet and I told her no. I looked online and contacted XXXX via their website after my conversation with Ally and XXXX emailed me back right away stating... __________ When you are enrolled with XXXX at your financial institution : When using XXXX within your financial institutions mobile app or online banking service, your bank or credit union will assist you with any issues you may be experiencing. For further assistance, please reach out directly to your financial institution at the number on the back of your debit card. __________ But Ally isnt helping!!! Called Ally on XXXX XXXX, 2023 and asked to speak to a manager right away. XXXX came on the phone and I informed him that I feel like I'm getting the run around and if we get nowhere today Im going to contact the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the XXXX I told him I have a case # and reference # and I gave him both. I explained the situation and he realized he couldnt do anything so he said he would escalate it to another team that is there tomorrow. He said I should receive a phone call within 1-2 business days. I never received that phone call.

Issue: Opening an account

Subissue: Didn't receive terms that were advertised

Consumer Complaint: I opened an investment with Ally banks with a regular monthly deposit into the account. However, after a few months, Ally bank website ( they do not have a physical branch ) does not give me access to my statements or bank information to the account. I have provided a picture of the account not shown below. Note that regardless of the time of the day, this is a permanent message on my account. It has been like this for months. I have called the team and they asked me to verify the account. I have answered their automated questions but they said they can't verify it still. So they asked that I send in my social security and driver license, which I did, and they have not done anything. Currently, Ally bank continue to withdraw from my checking account and does not offer me options to get my money back or stop the withdraw.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Problem accessing account

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2023 I made a call to customer service to Ally Bank and they entered incorrect info and locked me out of my account. Many attempts were made to have access and were denied due to identity concerns. Ally Bank allegedly closed my account and placed funds in isolation and claim that the other bank, XXXX has to claim the funds to be returned to the original account from where there were transferred. XXXX denies that is the procedure and they have me in a he/she says back and forth without offering solid solutions.
