Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: Ally noted my account as 30 days delinquent. I have never had issue with payments 30 days late being noted as delinquent on my credit report, as I keep the account current. Not only that, but I have also been trying to work with Ally on deferring payments due to COVID-19 hardships, where each request has been denied. They will have this on record. My issue is that I have never had a 30 day delinquency with them, and if this were to change, I should have been contacted and informed of that. I have been a loaner through Ally for years, but this is an issue that is encouraging me to refinance my vehicle.

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

Subissue: Investigation took more than 30 days

Consumer Complaint: This letter is a follow up to my original letter regarding the inaccuracy in your credit reporting, regarding the entry being reported as Repossession and Charge-off. Pursuant to the class action settlement agreement effective XX/XX/2021, you are mandated to remove the repossession/charge-off from my credit reports. However, I was informed by your executive department that the entire trade line will be removed. I do not authorize the entire trade line to be deleted from my credit reports. I had 1.9 years of on-time payment history which is accurate. I never had a late payment. I only authorize you to remove the unlawful repossession and charge-off status and leave my on-time payment history. I have a copy of my sales contract whereas both parties agreed to report my payment history to the consumer reporting agencies. Be aware that I am making a final goodwill attempt to have you clear up this matter. The listed item is entirely inaccurate and represents a very serious error in your reporting. I am maintaining a careful record of my communications with you for purpose of filing a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and the Attorney Generals office should you continue your non-compliance. Any other action ( or inaction ) on your behalf may result in a small claims action against your company. Please be aware that dependent upon your response, I may be detailing any potential issues with your company via an online public press release, including documentation of any potential small claims action.

Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action

Subissue: Seized or attempted to seize your property

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2021 XXXX XXXX XXXX came to my abode location and attempted to seize my property without my permission and without court order or judgement in which is theft. This is a violation of my federally protected consumer rights. It is unlawful and theft for my property to be seized by someone without my permission. XXXX XXXX XXXX did not have my permission to contact me. ALLY FINANCIAL sent them to seize my property over an alleged debt that was already paid for. My car was already paid for through a consumer credit transaction. I put a downpayment of {$4000.00} which is illegal in a credit transaction under the provisions of 15 USC 1605 ( a ). Also a finance charge was in connection with the consumer credit transaction in which is the SUM of all charges in which I do not owe any monetary amount every month. ALLY FINANCIAL has committed fraud in this alleged contract without disclosing my right to rescission and the provisions under Truth in Lending Act. ALLY FINANCIAL and XXXX XXXX XXXX has violated my federally protected consumer rights through abuse and oppression. This is prohibited by federal law.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Deposits and withdrawals

Consumer Complaint: ALLY BANK : Can not access my account ; my on line account blocked while I have all proper credentials. On XX/XX/2021 call bank to give instructions on what to do with my CD account when it matures. The person answering my call ( XXXX ) ask me for my old phone number no longer in service. and I could not recall it. I gave her my current and only cell phone number. She did not accept that and start asking questions beyond the usual ( social security number, age, dog name, mother 's maiden name ). Not satisfied with these, asking me many others which I think answered O.K. I now remembered my old phone number, told her what it was ; She said it is too late. Started asking about the color of a car a XXXX car, I told her I do not own a XXXX car. I got frustrated and said why not go directly on my line account which I have the proper credentials. I login but she blocked my account. I phone again another person answered, she ask me the 4 basic questions, satisfied with my identity, ask me what I want, I told her my account is blocked. She talk to somebody, came back and said I have to wait and a specialist will call me. I ask to speak to a supervisor, he told me I have to wait 2 days and there is nothing he can do. I called again on XX/XX/2021 and again on XX/XX/2021. Today XX/XX/2021, still waiting for the so called specialist to call.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: On XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, I went into active duty-XXXX status. According to the SCRA regulations, I attempted to submit my orders to the company and get my balance lowered and apr adjusted. I received notification via email from the company that my documents were collected. After some time, no adjustments were made and my expected payments were still high. I was struggling to get relief and seek out these adjustments. I attempted to call Ally Financial and they said they were working on it and that no action was needed on my part, however, I did state that I was in financial hardship and would like to get assistance. It took almost 10 months after the initial loan and car purchase ( XX/XX/XXXX ) before I was granted this account adjustment. However, too late before Ally reported on going payments as late and marked me in a delinquent status ( reported twice : XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ). Furthermore, I did not receive notification on reimbursement of overpayment on this loan from the months prior given he applied rate adjustment according to SCRA regulations.
