I am a victim of identity- theft, I am writing to request that you block all accounts disputed as fraudulent on my credit reports with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX. This information does not relate to any transactions I have made. I did not give anyone authorization or consent to use my personal information. I hereby exercise my legal rights enacted by Congress and The Federal Trade Commission, which explicitly states when a victim of identity-theft dispute a fraudulent account on his/her credit report it shall be honored by all credit bureaus and all fraudulent information should be blocked within 4 days and proper notification shall be given to all data furnishers pursuant to section 605b of The Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Because I know my rights under THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT, CONSUMER CREDIT PROTECTION ACT ( CCPA ), and FAIR and ACCURATE CREDIT TRANSACTION ACT of 2003 ( FACTA ). I will be taking action. I also know my rights under this paragraph of Section 312 of the FACTA LAW : SEC.312. Procedures to enhance the accuracy and integrity of information furnished to consumer reporting agencies. ( b ) duty of furnishers to provide accurate information. -- Section 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) of THE FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT ( 15 U.S.C . 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) is amended ( 1 ) in subparagraph ( A ), by striking " knows or consciously avoids knowing the information is inaccurate '' and inserting " knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate '', and ( 2 ) by adding at the end of the following : ( D ) DEFINITION -- For purposes of subparagraph ( A ), the term 'reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate ' means having specific knowledge, other than solely allegations by the consumer, that would cause a reasonable person to have substantial doubts about the accuracy of information.

Therefore, my position is being clearly stated, these accounts do not belong to me, meaning that you are reporting inaccurate account information within my credit file. The fact that these are inaccurate account information means that you, this credit-reporting agency, are reporting incorrect accounts. 1. ALLY FINANCIAL & BAL. {$9200.00} I am well aware of my rights as a consumer. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that you, the credit-reporting agency report accurate and/or correct account information within my credit file. My credit issues are very specific, these accounts and/or items do not belong to me. This means that you are reporting incorrect account information within my credit report. It is with this in mind that I request that these listed accounts and items be Blocked and Deleted. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA, Section 1681c ( 2 ) Block of information resulting from identity theft. 1. Block. Except as otherwise provided in this section, a consumer reporting shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than four ( 4 ) business days after the date receipt by such agency of 1.

Issue: Written notification about debt

Subissue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Consumer Complaint: I entered in to a consumer credit transaction On XX/XX/XXXX, with ALLY FINANCIAL INC . This consumer credit transaction included a finance charge. 15 U.S.C. 1605 defines a finance charge as the sum of all charges in a consumer credit transaction. The finance charge does not include cash, yet, Ally Financial Inc took {$6000.00} cash from me in order to allow this transaction. The finance charge is also supposed to include insurance but this was never disclosed to me and I was repeatedly asked to provide insurance for the vehicle before obtaining the vehicle. I made a grave error in the operation of the alleged account with Ally Financial Inc and I continue to notice that they have willingly and deceptively not given me information that 15 U.S.C. 1635 requires them to provide to all consumers who enter in to a consumer credit transaction with them. This information must be disclosed. Ally Financial Inc is now criminally liable as well as civilly liable, 15 U.S.C. 1611 and 15 U.S.C. 1640, for not disclosing or providing my right of rescission as they are required to do. Upon review of my contract in regards to my consumer credit transaction between Ally Financial Inc and myself, under 15 U.S.C. 80a-46 b ( 1 ), it became evident that the violations to the terms in the the contract and violations against myself, by Ally Financial Inc made the contract void. On XX/XX/XXXX, Ally Financial Inc received and signed for a Copyright/ Copy Claim Affidavit Under Constructive Notice and my Notice of Dispute of the Debt. Ally Financial Inc violated 15 U.S.C. 1692 g ( b ). Ally Financial Inc proceeded to illegally take action against me and violate many of my rights. They refused to acknowledge my Dispute or my Copyright/ Claim affidavit. Ally Financial Inc failed to provide what was needed under 15 U.S.C. 1692 g ( b ) and never failed to cease collection of the debt until they provided the documentation required to validate the debt. Ally Financial Inc has also failed to send any response to the notary presentment. Ally Financial Inc continued to accrue charges, fees, interest, and penalties against myself. On XX/XX/XXXX, Ally Financial Inc received and signed for the Notice of Lien. They acted more aggressively while failing to acknowledge my dispute, notice of lien or notice to cure. After defaulting on our initial contract, they have continued to take action against me and are now illegally attempting to repossess my vehicle. Ally Financial Inc violated 15 U.S.C. 1692 e ( 4 ), ( 5 ), ( 6 ), ( 6B ), ( 8 ), ( 10 ), ( 15 ), and 15 U.S.C. 1692 f ( 6C ). On XX/XX/XXXX, Ally Financial Inc called a member of my family and discussed the debt and their repossession order with this person. This call was recorded and Ally Financial Inc was informed about this. This is a violation of 15 U.S.C. 1692 c ( b ).

Issue: Communication tactics

Subissue: Called before 8am or after 9pm

Consumer Complaint: This debt collector continuously calls monday through sunday from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX until XXXX at night. They call at least 3 or 4 times a day and I have paid some amount onto my debt but I can only talk to one representative to pay on it without them giving me hassle and saying I have to pay it in full when I am trying to pay at least some of it. They are very rude too when I answer the call or say I do not have money at this moment but I can pay later. They say they can only take the full amount even though I have an arrangement with a representative. It is quite frustrating and they are constantly harassing me.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: I give authorization for Ally to move forward with this complaint. I bought a car and received a loan from Ally on XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, 2021asserted my rights as a FEDERALLY PROTECTED CONSUMER. I sent Ally a NOTICE OF BILLING ERROR in the amount of {$7600.00} requesting all documentary evidence of the accounting since the inception of the promissory note/retail installment contract. As a result of this notice of billing error and a negotiable instrument that was sent in, ALLY restricted my account demanding that I pay certified funds for 6 months in order to pay the loan, and preventing online and phone in payments. This is causing extreme stress and undue hardship at this time, in addition to be illegal adverse action under a notice of billing error.

Subissue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Consumer Complaint: My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX and I had been laid off work and was also out for XXXX for ten days without pay. I called Ally Financial to see what type of help I could receive because at this point I was already a few weeks pass the due date. I talked to one of the customer representatives to see what kind of help was available. The Rep told me to just set up a payment online. I told the representative I would not be able to pay until the following Friday which would make be 30 days late if ensured me that as long as I made the payment arrangement before the 30 days they would not report it as being late. I asked was the call being recorded because I am in the middle of a loan for a house. I made the arrangement and the money was paid out XXXX XXXX. My loan officer informed me that I had a 30 day late on my credit report and I was no longer eligible for the loan. I would also lose the monies I paid for the home inspection and appraisal. I also would lose my earnest money deposit. I called Ally Financial and informed them of all of this and they said if that is what the representative said they would honor that and fix the error. Nothing has happened and I stand to lose everything I worked hard for to buy my home.
