Subissue: Banking errors

Consumer Complaint: XX/XX/XXXX Ally Bank The 1099 INT that was given to me for the year XXXX is wrong. I did call Ally but the person on the phone did not want to hear what I had to say and hung up on me. Allys CD calculated interest is posted ( added to the total ) at the end of the CD term. The CD accrues interest daily and is stated on the monthly statement but is not added to the balance. The 1099-INT that Ally gave me is for the total interested added to the CD at the end of the CD term not the actual interest earned for the year XXXX. As seen in the bank statements provided. I earned {$940.00} from XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX XXXXXXXX year. It clearly states on my bank statement for XX/XX/XXXX the interest I earned for the year XXXX is {$320.00} not {$940.00}.

Consumer Complaint: Dear Ally XXXX Offices, CC : CPFB and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX RE : incorrect bonus I spoke XXXX this evening when I saw the getpaid bonus. I was told I was only being paid {$54.00} because I closed the 11 month CD and opened more. The funds remained in my individual name which the new month total {$50000.00} was brought in and funded on XX/XX/XXXX CD xxx XXXX. I was told there would be no issue closing the CD and opening another one as long as the funds stayed with ALLY. I continued to ask these questions and was re-assured that the bonus would be paid in full 1 % x {$50000.00} = {$500.00}. I have been a customer for many years and I even spoke to a representative last week who said if there is an issue to call customer service. I explained to XXXX during the call tonight XX/XX/XXXX @ XXXX PST. She was not willing to assist, open a research ticket, and was rude by just reading your terms and conditions. The {$50000.00} was a new CD in my name XXXX XXXX, XXXX were closed and transfer performed by Ally who on the recorded calls stated it would not effect my bonus, the funds remained in there the entire time through the period XX/XX/XXXX and are still in there as of today. I am looking for someone to rectify this ASAP. Please research this and call me at XXXX.

Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action

Subissue: Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged

Consumer Complaint: On Saturday, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sent a comfort advisor to my home to recommend an HVAC installation. I was quoted XXXX XXXX dollars to install two units. On Sunday, I declined to proceed with the order. My representative was notified by text and email and assured me he would cancel all on his end. I was pre-approved for financing through ALLY Financial. On Tuesday I received documents as attached. I called ALLY on Tuesday morning about my application and was told by then that the allocation was declined on Sunday XXXX and no further action was needed on my part upon as king for a fax number to send rescission documents to. I have attached my phone call and the documents labeled nonnegotiable to this complaint. At approximately XXXX XXXX on Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from ALLy notifying me that they have received my signed agreement and awaiting disbursement to XXXX XXXX. I was told the application was denied and no further processing would continue. The call was made to ALLY ended at XXXX XXXX and lasted for 21 minutes. Further more the documents attached tell me to rescind within three days of the date of notice above. The date is no where on the forms they sent me making it impossible for consumers to rescind. I have attached the response from XXXX rep XXXX told me Ally would be cancelled on his end. It is important that disbursements do not take place. It is important that this item is not included in standard credit reporting as a new tradeline to my credit report damaging my credit. Further this loan should not have been declined it should have been withdrawn. They should not have declined me. It is not a fair decision after sending me an approval by email. they need to check their records to ensure there is no further processing of this loan. If it hits my credit report it will be damaging. I have contacted my representative to cancel orders the next day. I also contacted ALLY and was told the loan was denied as of XX/XX/XXXX which was the day I cancelled with XXXX Please help them to facilitate how to handle this accordingly so that my credit is damaged as a result of processing up to the point. Further I recieved the loan documents on Tuesday with an option to cancel by midnight of the same day by mail or physical delivery an hour and half from my home. If I have three days to rescind they should have emailed it too instead. XXXX XXXX should not be making requests for any orders because I cancelled installation. The rep cancelled it upon receiving a complaint about his proposal from my by email on Sunday XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: Ally Financial received three checks. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Ally Financial claimed they did not receive XXXX XXXX XXXX of {$2800.00} although I have receipt of all checks received by Ally Financial. They claimed there was no record XXXX XXXX XXXX. I called back after being hung up on and continued to inquire about the check. They gave me a false check number and later confirmed they did, in fact have the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and posted it to my account immediately after I called back many times inquiring about this false check number ( XXXX ) they gave me. Again, although they claimed they never received or had any records of XXXX XXXX XXXX they immediately posted it after I inquired about the false check number I was given. Now Ally Financial is going into my account reallocating money. I did not give Ally Financial permission to reallocate any money from my monthly bill towards the principal. Ally Financial claimed that it is a policy in the Vehicle Service Contact but later confirmed that there is no such Policy. Now Ally is claiming that this is their Policy to have all cancellation refunds reallocated to the principal. However, they are refusing to give me this in information in writing. This specific Policy that Ally Financial is claiming exist is nowhere to be found Online and is not in my terms and conditions of my loan. I would like Ally Financial to stop posting things on my account and to stop reallocating money in my account without my consent. Each time I call I get told false information from the Auto Loan Department. They have displayed extremely unprofessional behavior and loud talking in the background. I have a recording of them laughing in the background on my voicemail.
