Additionally the account is currently litigation ( Ally Financial Vs XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, Case No. XXXX XXXX in XXXX County, Missouri. The reporting agency and the alleged account holder has been contacted repeatedly regarding the removal of the account from report, almost on a monthly basis.

Items requested have been : -Proof of your right to to report this alleged debt -Balance claimed including all fees, interest and penalties -Contract bearing my personal signature Instead have only provided : - Account history, including any charges added for collection activity.

Attached are letters of communication sent to all parties.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Problem with fees charged

Consumer Complaint: Ally Financial modified a loan without my consent. I have contacted customer relations several times with no success. Ally Financial, although they agree to reinstate my original contract per their letter sent to me on XX/XX/2021, after talking to representative XXXX XXXX he states that only partial of the contract can be reinstated in the amount of {$290.00} after questioning why, he did not have a clear answer. I find this to be unacceptable and will continue to wait for Ally to do the right thing.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/21 a payoff check was sent to Ally in XXXX, KY by XXXX. Ive notified XXXX representative XXXX on XX/XX/21 & XX/XX/21 regarding the check was sent, provided the check # and the amount so it could be applied to my account. I spoke to XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/21 regarding my payment hasnt been posted to account and by not posting the payment to my account right away is preventing me from getting another loan due to this loan is still open and its almost time for another payment thats due. I notified Ally on last week that I sold the car on XX/XX/21 and provided them with the name of the company that bought my car. Per the XXXX XXXX she will send a letter to corporate to see if they can locate the check. I called Ally today XX/XX/21, spoke to a Representative name XXXX. Per XXXX, XXXX is in a meeting and I cant speak to her. I tried to XXXX the Corporate office phone # which gave XXXX that is not a working #. I located another ph # to file a complaint which was XXXX. That ph # wasnt for corporate but reached a representative name XXXX in Canada. I was transferred to another Representative name XXXX which stated he could not locate my account with my social security # and that I reached Ally and not XXXX. Ive called XXXX ph # XXXX which is the same ph # where I reached The Representative XXXX, XXXX and Supervisor XXXX. I received a called back from XXXX around XXXX today XX/XX/21 which she left a message saying she was going to email me with status. I received the email today XX/XX/21 from XXXX which she states she XXXX hasnt replied and she was going to email them again. Per Representative XXXX by phone on yesterday XX/XX/21, since the check was sent to XXXX, KY theres no account for them to post the check to so Corporate will have to locate the check and when the check is cash in XXXX, KY, the department will have to reissue another check to Texas. This will cause more delays if this happens! It appears that No one is trying to locate my check to apply to my account.

Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease

Subissue: Problem with paying off the loan

Consumer Complaint: I paid off my car loan in XX/XX/2021 and it is still being reported as owing on the account and for an even higher amount than the pay off was. I received the title XX/XX/2021 and am being reported on my credit history as late for the month of XXXX. XXXX and XXXX show no data given by the company. I have verified via the online account with ally that I had that the money was put towards the remaining balance and it showed {$0.00} owed. I opened a dispute with XXXX and XXXX and received notice that the owed amount was correct and in excess of the actual final amount. I called ally twice in 2 months and they refuse to do anything to expedite this matter and reconcile my payment with the credit bureaus as being paid in full. My credit has dropped almost 75 points after having made the pay off ... the complete opposite of what it should have done. No one seems to care that my credit is tanking because of this. It is an easy matter to fix and they are dragging their heels while I am personally suffering with these negative marks on my credit history. I am submitting a screenshot of my account with ally-I can no longer access payments or statements ( which were online statements to cut down paper ) but it does show I no longer have an active vehicle loan with them. I have also submitted a picture of my title-which I would not have if I still owed any money to ally.

Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease

Subissue: Termination fees or other problem when ending the lease early

Consumer Complaint: In XXXX I purchased a vehicle from XXXX XXXX in XXXX Michigan. They purchased my lease. On XX/XX/XXXX the dealership paid XXXX XXXX to ally financial to buy out my lease. Ally sent them the title. They sold the truck. Ally is still charging the monthly lease payment. Listing the amount as past due. I have made several phone calls. They tell me the truck is still owned by myself ( and them, due to the lease ) they then try to tell me that XXXX XXXX has my account. I have tried contacting them on several occasions. Never getting off of hold. I was scheduled 2 separate call backs. Neither happened. I spoke with the dealership. They were asked to provide the odometer statement. Which they did and in return Were given the title. The dealership has tried to help me. Only to spend hours on hold never being able to get the right department on the phone. So as of XXXX, my truck was sold to the dealership by ally financial. Ally financial continues to keep my account open. Ally financial continues to charge me monthly for the vehicle. Just over XXXX dollars listed as past due so far. Through hours of phone calls I can talk to no one that has any knowledge, or ability to help me with the account. Other than telling me I need to talk to dealer services. Which does not seem to exist. The truck is in mine and my wifes name

Issue: Improper use of your report

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

Consumer Complaint: During the pandemic it seems that my credit was ran to try to obtain a car. I do not have any open accounts for a car in the last year. I have been calling to get the inquires removed as this is a reflection on my three major consumer reports. Also the information does not match across all three reports and due to that information alone the inquires must be removed.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information belongs to someone else

Consumer Complaint: This account is involved in litigation for fraudulent practices according to my FCRA rights. I have not supplied proof under the doctrine of estoppel by silence, Engelhardt v. Gravens ( Mo ) 281 SW 715, 719, I may presume that no proof of the alleged debt, nor therefore any such debt, in fact exists. Note that the collector has to stop all collection activities until it can provide all the evidence. Under the FDCPA Section 809, Validation of debts [ 15 USC 1692g ] I have the right to verify any alleged debt on my credit report and if the alleged debt is being disputed, the debt collector shall cease.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/2021 my wife and I looked on XXXX to search for the best rate on a jumbo loan refi. We both have excellent credit scores and the XXXX on our proposed loan is about 50 %. As per the attachments, Ally Bank CorpXXXX listed a jumbo loan offering on XXXX with an APR of 2.577 % for our loan and a monthly P & I payment of {$2300.00} per month, assuming a credit score above XXXX. Based on this information, we spent over an hour filling out Ally 's application. We then received a Loan Estimate with an APR of 4.147 % and a monthly payment of {$2800.00}. Page 5 of the LE cites " New Information unknown at time of original LE '' as the reason for the change. This is false as our credit scores and loan values are even higher than listed. This is a blatant example of " bait and switch '' by the lender and they should be sanctioned for it. I am certain that I am not the only borrower who has wasted their time filling out a loan application with Ally, only to have a dramatic increase in the APR at the end of the process.
