Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed

Subissue: Debt was paid

Consumer Complaint: I was XXXX XXXX and since then had been struggling with keeping up with my bills. I owed {$920.00} to Ally Financial as of XX/XX/XXXX. I cashed out the remaining amount if my 401K to pay outstanding bills I had due to my being XXXX. I made an online payment to Ally on XX/XX/XXXX for the overdue balance of {$920.00}. Unfortunately my bank held my 401K cash out check longer than expected causing the funds to not be available in time for the {$920.00} to clear, causing the payment to Ally Financial for {$920.00} to be reversed on XX/XX/XXXX. I called Ally back XX/XX/XXXX and said I wanted to just pay the remaining balance owed not the outstanding balance of {$920.00} ( my 401K cash out had cleared at this point and funds were available ). The Ally representative said " I can not give you a payoff amount until you bring your account current your account is still showing a balance of {$920.00}. '' He also said " once your account is current call back and a payoff amount will be able to be provided. '' I made another online payment of {$920.00} and that payment did clear XX/XX/XXXX. I called back XX/XX/XXXX and got a payoff amount of {$2500.00}, since they my account was current they were able to provide the payoff amount. I made an online payment for {$2500.00} and that cleared as well. Weeks later I received a letter from Ally dated XX/XX/XXXX stating the balance was paid in full and they provided the original title of the vehicle in my name. At some point after my payoff Ally redeposited the first payment of {$920.00} that originally did not clear on XX/XX/XXXX ( even though I made a payment on XX/XX/XXXX to replace that returned payment AND paid of the payoff amount which cleared XX/XX/XXXX ). My bank returned to me the payment of {$920.00} that was deducted from my account AFTER I paid the payoff amount and received my paid letter with the title. Ally is now saying I owe them {$1000.00}. The account should be reflecting closed and paid in full as of XX/XX/XXXX.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Problem with personal statement of dispute

Consumer Complaint: To whom it may concern, Please be advised that I have made several attempts in correcting the information that has been incorrectly updated and inaccurately reporting to XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I have submitted all information from Ally in regard to the release of rights and ownership of the vehicle that is being reported as an open account and it is stating that I have been making on time payments for a vehicle and lease I no longer have or own. Ally themselves have sent a letter regarding the release of ownership from me and I have attached it to this information I am providing ( sent to me XX/XX/2022 ). XXXX XXXX, XXXX and XXXX reports as though I have had the vehicle with on time payments for over 3 years after having had returned the vehicle ( Documents are attached to support ). I have sent a letter to XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX that was received no later than XX/XX/XXXX by certified mail ( documents are attached with specific dates received individually for each as well as copies of the letter that was sent ). XXXX XXXX and XXXX have responded although I have yet to receive any information back from XXXX in regard to deleting my account with Ally from their reporting ( documents are attached to support ). XXXX, XXXX and XXXX XXXX have allowed Ally to report consistently and incorrectly my information and have done nothing regarding the fact that they still have this information still being reported inaccurately. This again was the second time for Ally to correct changes and only to report it inaccurately yet again. It is my right to have an accurate credit file and errors like this are detrimental to my well being. It is in direct violations of my rights according to 15 USC 1666 and I am looking to execute FCRA section 611 for the inaccuracy of the disputed information and looking to have all record with any reporting from Ally removed immediately.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: In XX/XX/XXXX, we leased a vehicle through Ally Financial and the vehicle was returned in XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX XXXX. Ally sent out a notice saying that a final balance of {$2700.00} was remaining after the lease ended. In XX/XX/XXXX, Ally financial added {$26000.00} in mileage charges that are not listed in the contract. Ally financial also failed to produce a contract showing justification of the additional costs after being asked many times. In XX/XX/XXXX, Ally financial also proceeded to report the loan as open hindering future auto loans and therefore making securing an auto loan difficult due to having a current open loan for a vehicle no longer in our possession. My spouse and I have both tired to have this fixed directly with Ally but to no avail. Their response is to have a manager look at the account but we only receive letters and calls no resolutions or validations.
