Issue: Improper use of your report

Subissue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Consumer Complaint: It was brought to my attention during a refinancing process that i have a second mtge with ALLY Bank. Upon contacting Ally, bank, they were unable to tell me how they got the mortgage and was asked if i wanted to make a payment. I was surprised as i did not at anytime had any dealings with ally. Had to pressurize ally about the existence of this mtge before they could tell me it was sold to them in 2014 and unsure who sold it to them. My issue is why i was not contacted and why up till date i did not recieve any billing statements from ally. I am unable to get a straight answer, nor the company handling my refinance I also did not recieve transfer docs that they recieved from this other company who sold the mtge Ally had prevented the refinance from moving forward as i now have $ XXXX on my name that Ally did not keep me abreast of.. My current mortgage company was not aware of this mtge. I know my mtge did changed hands but i was under the impression that the complete mtge was transferred to current lender. Thankyou

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

Subissue: Transaction was not authorized

Consumer Complaint: Our bank ( Ally Bank ) notified us of a transaction ( XXXX via debit card ) on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$1500.00}, which was the result of our credit card number being stolen. On XX/XX/XXXX we immediately reported the fraud to our bank, which required us to wait until the transaction posted to actually file the claim. We filed the claim, and was advised the timeframe to completion was 90 days. We were not given a credit during the time they were doing their review, so our family was out {$1500.00}, while XXXX and Ally were investigating. Ultimately, XXXX and Ally came to the determination that the transaction was authorized ( even though it absolutely was not ). We have been in contact with XXXX who will not release information to us, and only the bank. Our bank is telling us XXXX will not issue a credit to our account. Ultimately, this was an unauthorized transaction, and we should not be held accountable for fraud. I believe both XXXX and Ally are at fault here - due to XXXX falsly claiming this transaction as an authorized transaction, and Ally for not properly advocating for their consumer and not properly crediting our bank accounting for the unauthorized, fraudulent transaction. I have attached notices sent to us by Ally related to this dispute. We have made multiple phone calls, and written inquiries to Ally- you may need to ask them for copies of those interactions. We have also asked for any and all evidence related to this claim, which they ( Ally ) has failed to supply.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Deposits and withdrawals

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/22 I went to purchase a car and pay for it in full. When I went to transfer the funds, {$5000.00}, to my checking account from my savings account, I discovered my accounts were locked. The bank didnt immediately release my accounts after I confirmed my identity. I bank through Ally Financial. They eventually unlocked my accounts but this forced me to finance my car instead of purchasing outright. On XX/XX/22 I deposited {$10000.00} from my XXXX account where I have my paycheck deposited from work to my Savings account. Again, my account was locked but they unlocked it soon after my identity was established and the transaction was validated. On the same day, I decided I wanted to purchase two vehicles for my significant other and I. Prior to transferring money, I contacted my bank and informed them of my intentions. They refused to transfer the funds for me over the phone immediately. I answered every security question, provided my full name, date of birth, social security number, and called from the phone number on file. I also requested a call back after they spoke to a supervisor to determine what the course of action would be. When I didnt get a call back, I requested another call from the bank through the automated system and was told it would be approximately 45 minutes. I scheduled the second call back over an hour and a half before closing time. I never received a call back. On XX/XX/22, I attempted to transfer the funds, {$160000.00}, from savings to my checking account and my accounts were frozen. On XX/XX/22 I contacted the bank AGAIN. I was told that the amount was too large to be transferred and they could only transfer {$50000.00} for one transaction. This was not disclosed to me on XX/XX/22. They also did not unlock my accounts and I have been waiting over 30 minutes for a supervisor to talk to me about my issues. Additionally, anytime I transfer money from XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX into my checking account, the funds are not available in my checking account until after XXXX hours.
