Issue: Closing your account

Subissue: Company closed your account

Consumer Complaint: I had a Ollo credit card that, it turns out, was issued by the XXXX XXXX XXXX according to the Ollo agent I spoke with on XX/XX/XXXX. I didn't use my card that often ; the last time was a few months ago, because it has a very high interest rate. In fact, I had to transfer a balance using a personal loan last year because the interest rate was over 30 %. Today I was looking to make a purchase with my Ollo card but it turned out that the account was closed. I looked through my emails and there were none from Ollo Card indicating that this would happen or that it had happened. The online Ollo " message center '' also did not include any messaging indicating my account would close if I didn't use, or that they had even closed it last month. I spoke to an agent XX/XX/XXXX and she told me the following : ( a ) that Ollo Card had closed my account in early XXXX ( b ) the Ollo Card had slipped into their credit card agreement a provision indicating that Ollo card doesn't have to communicate major changes to the account or impending changes to account status ( such as closure ) at all. That is, they can make changes to the account with informing the customer either before or after. Also, Ollo Card did not provide monthly statements for the last XXXX months and thus missed out on an opportunity to communicate impending changes related to my account. They did this deliberately, which was confirmed by the Ollo account rep I spoke with on XX/XX/XXXX. This was a regular practice even if I receive electronic statements. They only provide account statements in certain months of the year, which is not outlined in advance. This was just sort of the abusive practices that banks used to practice in the lead up to and during the housing crisis of XXXX. Its possible the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Ollo Card ) was one of the banks that routinely failed to communicate with customers or " lost '' mail sent to them. But wasn't this practice the subject of new legislation in XXXX?

Issue: Struggling to pay your loan

Subissue: Denied request to lower payments

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/ I spoke with representative at Ally Financial regarding my past due balance and future payments. My vehicle was under review for repossession and I aware that a payment was needed immediately. I advised the representative I made a payment of XXXX earlier in the week to show my effort to make payments and continue weekly since my job pays weekly and we are due for overtime since our production is going up. I advised I would make payments weekly now to catch up and get the balance back to current. She advised to make an additional payment of XXXX to avoid possibly having my vehicle repossessed. I agreed to do so the following day and she stated she would note the account. The following morning before I could go to work, my vehicle was dragged out of my driveway by XXXX XXXX which Ive experienced very rude service through the operator or dispatch. I felt violated and lied to. I was truly blindsided by this event which also caused me to miss days at work. Ally financial has truly lost their trust as an institution to finance my vehicle and I look forward to refinancing with a bank Ive had a relationship for many years now.

Issue: Closing an account

Subissue: Funds not received from closed account

Consumer Complaint: I contacted Ally Financial to withdraw the funds from my account on the evening of XX/XX/XXXX. They told me my savings account was placed in a " dormant '' status since I hadn't added funds to it even though they never notified me about this status change or what I could do to prevent that from occurring. I then told them to close my account and withdraw the funds from my saving account to my linked XXXX XXXX XXXX. They told me that it would take XXXX - XXXX business days to close the account and transfer my funds. I contacted Ally again on XX/XX/XXXX and they said the transfer was in process. When I contacted them again on XX/XX/XXXX, they said there was a mistake and they failed to transfer my funds. They promised to escalate this issue and provide me an update on the XXXX. Since I didn't receive an update, I contacted them again on the XXXX. They said the account closure and fraud teams had outstanding questions which was preventing the transfer even though they didn't ask me any questions. Since the money was being transferred to the same bank account that was used to transfer funds into the account in XXXX, there should be minimal fraud concerns. Again they promised to respond to me later that day with an update. Since I again failed to receive an update, I contacted them again on the XXXX. They said the fraud review was completed but still didn't know when my funds would be transferred to my bank account. Repeated requests to escalate this issue and/or speak with a XXXX who could resolve this issue were refused. The absolutely horrible service that Ally delivered should be a warning to everyone never to use their service since there are many other financial institutions who provide better saving deposit rates with much better service.
