Consumer Complaint: this has been a on going matter for over a year, ally financial still has not sent me verification, debt validation, audit trail with bank statements providing that they lending any monies for said loan. two affidavits XXXX rebutted which stands truth in commerce. cease and desist that i had filed but still reporting to consumer reporting agencies which is still a form of communication. IRS states any account charged off is considered income and income can not be reported as debt and i have never received my 1099-c for the charge off.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: This issue has persisted for multiple years despite several attempts on my part to get Ally Auto to fix the problem. Ally Auto XXXX Ally Bank sends out emails every month who's subject ( and body ) claim : " Weve received your vehicle payment. '' and " Your vehicle payment was successful. '' However, the emails do NOT indicate that the payment was in fact received and successful. Instead they indicate that their internal systems have initiated the automated payment ACH process. As a consumer, I receive that email and think " great! everything is ok. '' However, if the ACH payment fails for some reason ( e.g., timing of your deposits to your account vs their withdrawal ), you don't get notification of that until 9+ days later, at which time they then charge you with a late payment fee. That late payment fee would have been avoided if they did not originally claim that the payment was successful, causing you to take your eye off the account thinking everything is ok. I have repeatedly told their customer service people that they need to change the wording of those emails to read " We have initiated the payment process '' or, that they wait until the payment has IN FACT been received by them before they tell you the payment is " successful. '' I have been charged several late payment fees due to this, and I suspect they don't want to fix it because it's a net benefit to them not to do so.

Issue: Closing an account

Subissue: Funds not received from closed account

Consumer Complaint: XX/XX/2022 Notified Ally Bank that I wanted to transfer my IRA Acct to XXXXXXXX XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX, I was told by customer service that I would need to file an application to participate. I did that and uploaded it to my Ally Bank Customer Service. Note : This account has been at Ally Bank for 10 years. Acct ending in XXXX. I thought that didn't sound right so I told them I would do a bank to bank transfer. I submitted the paperwork to XXXXXXXX XXXX where I want my account transferred. I called Ally bank customer service several times with hold times of about an hour to talk to a representative. The associates were always courteous and tried to be helpful but they clearly have no control over Ally Bank 's corporate delay tactics. On XX/XX/2022 was told that XXXX XXXX didn't sign bank transfer request form. I contacted XXXXXXXX XXXX and they said they checked the it had been signed but would resend it. XX/XX/XXXX, Ally Bank received the second transfer request from XXXX XXXX However they couldn't find the the application to participate again. This time I sent it XXXX overnight so I would have documentation since it had become clear to me that Ally Bank was just delaying and their word is not to be trusted at Executive Customer Relations. On XXXX XXXX, 2022 they finally closed my account and deducted an early IRA CD withdrawal penalty fee of {$270.00} which I agree was correct. On XX/XX/XXXX, I was told the check to XXXXXXXX XXXX is in the mail. It is now XX/XX/2022 and the XXXXXXXX XXXX has not received the check. Please help me to expose Ally Bank. I am XXXX XXXX XXXX, I lost XXXX of my siblings in the past 20 months and I really don't need this additional stress. Elder Abuser?? They have my entire retirement savings out there somewhere. 80 days and counting. A major Bank clearly just delaying sending an old man his money.

Issue: Problem with a lender or other company charging your account

Subissue: Transaction was not authorized

Consumer Complaint: Case XXXX is for the amount of {$580.00} and case # XXXX for the amount of {$1900.00}. XXXX XXXX provides the following statement about Ally XXXX response to his claims : Ally Response - Issued case numbers for investigation, but on a phone call with the Ally dispute team, they twisted my words around. Be advised that Ally Bank would be subjected to California Business and Professions Code 17200 where it prohibits any unlawful, unfair or fraudulent business act or practice which allows restoration of money or property acquired improperly ( Fletcher v. Security Pac. Natl Bank ( 1979 ) 23 Cal. 3d 442, 451 ). Further, you may also be subjected to punitive damages if fraud is proven by clear and convincing evidence ( California Civil Code 3294 ( a ) ), in addition to prejudgment interest on damages ( California Civil Code 3288 ; Alliance Mortgage Company v. Rothwell ( 1995 ) ( quoting Nordahl v. Department of Real Estate ( 1975 ) 48 Cal.App.3d 657, 665 ) ). In every contract there is an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing by each party not to do anything which will deprive the other parties of the benefit of the contract. Sutherland v. Barclays American/Mortgage Corp. , 53 Cal. App. 4th 299, 314, 61 Cal. Rptr. 2d 614 ( 1997 ). A party to a contract breaches the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing by interfering with or failing to cooperate with the plaintiff in the performance of the contract.

Issue: Getting a loan or lease

Subissue: Fraudulent loan

Consumer Complaint: Ally Financial violated numerous FRCR laws when it fraudulently approved an auto loan with my stolen identity, Account # XXXX, on or around XX/XX/XXXX the VIN # XXXX. I was a victim of identity theft, I was made aware on XX/XX/XXXX ( Police Report # XXXX ) when I pulled my free credit report online that's when I discovered that someone had opened an auto loan with my Name and Social security number with Ally Financial. This Catastrophic error and negligence on behalf of Ally Financial is causing a financial strain on my family as I am trying to become a first-time homeowner, now this process is delayed because of my discovery. Also, there were a host of unauthorized credit accounts opened when my identity was compromised. Through the response received from the creditor, I would like to inform you that your company has violated 15 USC 1692j ( a ) because your company furnished a deceptive form to create a false belief in me as a consumer that the Creditor was attempting to collect the debt but in reality it was not true.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2022 my bank, XXXX Bank XXXX XXXX, AR, overnighted a cashiers check to Ally Auto for the amount of {$14000.00}. The tracking number of XXXX shows that it was delivered on XX/XX/2022. Approximately XX/XX/XXXX I checked my online account and the payment hadnt been posted so I called to check on it. I was told to call back within the next two days to check. I was told this every few days over the course of two weeks. At the end of week two I started pressing harder when I called because I was tired of the runaround. I provided all of the information requested ( MULTIPLE TIMES ) such as the tracking number and address it was delivered to. I was told more than once a ticket would be opened with the payment department and it would be investigated. It has now been over three weeks since the payment was received. My payment is severely overdue ( it was due on XXXX ) and the payoff amount is well past the ten day payoff quote that was sent. Im also afraid its going to affect my credit score. I need to be in touch with someone who can handle this and quit giving us the runaround about losing our payment.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Loan sold or transferred to another company

Consumer Complaint: As sent to Ally on XX/XX/2022 via notarized letter with return receipt, your claim can not and will not be considered if not returned with the requested information 30 days. It was more than 56 days that Ally answered my complaint through CFPB still not providing me the requested information. Ally claims it is not governed by FDCPA. On behalf of other consumers who governs Allys business practices? XXXX and FDCPA govern Ally. Regardless, this entire ordeal has impacted my health, and no one should be subjected to this type of business. I have contacted the XXXX and have attached Allys response. Additionally, I have elected to rescind my contract with XXXX and never had a contract with ALLY. This must be the reason Ally could not or would not send their validation of debt. It is clear that Ally will not and can not comply. Ally sent a copy of the XXXX contract. Again, I have chosen to rescind the XXXX contract as of XX/XX/2022, and XXXX is in receipt of it. Ally needs to be reminded that I also rescinded any contract Ally thought I had with them on XX/XX/2022, according to 15 USC 1635 ( f ) and advised them that their security interest in my car is void per 15 USC 1635 ; Regulation Z XXXX with notification that Ally had 20 days to terminate the security interest. Ally is in receipt of that affidavit with no response and no dispute.
