Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease

Subissue: Problem with paying off the loan

Consumer Complaint: I was pre-approved by a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, Delaware. I needed to replace a totaled car due to an accident. I was pre-approved through Ally Finance the last week of XX/XX/XXXX. I went to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I was told to go into XXXX to sign my documents. My pre-approval loan included gap insurance. XXXX ran their own credit reports. I told them they did not have approval to run my credit again. The issue was resolved and I left with a XXXX XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, 16 months later, I was in a XXXX accident. The car was totaled. XXXX XXXX at XXXX ext XXXX confirmed my loan had XXXX insurance but could not give me the information. XXXX loan papers does not have it included. So I'm requesting the actual recording to be researched. I know 100 %, I requested XXXX insurance because of the loss in XXXX. I need the remaining balance to be paid off. I don't know why it's not notated but the finance amount is exactly what the representative quoted me with the XXXX insurance. Please Help!

Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease

Subissue: Problem with paying off the loan

Consumer Complaint: My bank has been trying to payoff my car loan since XX/XX/23. Sent multiple checks. I have had to call multiple times and have been hung up more times than I can count. Finally today after being so fed up and speaking with rep after rep all saying the check was not received I asked for a supervisor. He stated no payoff check has been received. At that point I tracked the XXXX package myself and see the check was indeed received by Ally bank ( for the XXXX time ) on XX/XX/23 at approximately XXXX. I inform the supervisor of this to which he puts me back on a lengthy hold and finally comes back with the processing center does have the check. But still won't post to my account until Tuesday ( Another 4 days ) Not only was this aggravating & asinine but seems extremely unethical to hold over XXXX XXXX dollars for days without posting it to the customers account. The reasoning was to ensure the funds cleared, but Respectfully that is only my problem if the funds are returned. Also someone can call the bank directly to verify funds ( I work at a bank and its done every day ). It seems Ally is trying to rack up those extra daily fees late fees ect & most importantly affecting my account history and possibly my credit just to pad more money onto the payoff. It's really unfair & unacceptable on top of lieing about even receiving the funds. I will attach if able screenshots of the multiple calls made the info sent from the bank and the tracking info from XXXX.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Funds not handled or disbursed as instructed

Consumer Complaint: I had an available balance on my checking account of {$5400.00}, and then made a debit purchase for {$4500.00}. The next day, Ally told me that my account was overdrawn by thousands of dollars. But I have a screen shot showing that the money was in my account when I made that purchase. I called and disputed this, and they told me that my account would remain frozen until they completed their investigation. They were quite rude. I waited over a week, and when they finally unlocked my account, the remaining {$3800.00} I had in my savings had been automatically moved to my checking account and then disappeared. Now I have literally no money in my account because they took it without providing any explanation whatsoever. Why did they tell me that I have enough money in my account to cover my purchase? If I didn't have that money in my account, then why did they allow the debit card purchase to go through for thousands of more dollars than they say I had in my account? They have provided no explanation whatsoever for these questions, and just took the remaining money I had in my account that was completely unrelated. This should be criminal and I want my money back and an explanation. Every time I call they have just been rude and refused to answer my questions or provide any information.
