Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action

Subissue: Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged

Consumer Complaint: During the return, I provided the dealership with both sets of keys, and the appropriate paperwork was processed to confirm this. To my shock and disappointment, I was later charged an unwarranted fee of {$790.00} by Ally Financial due to an incorrect claim that only one key was returned. I quickly acted to reverse this mistake by Ally, reaching out dozens of times, speaking with various managers, and even opening a formal claim to have this unfair charge removed. Despite my many efforts, this issue went unresolved and the claim went unclosed. Later, with no communication or response from Ally regarding the claim, I received a letter from a collections agency for the balance of {$790.00}. In the interest of preserving my financial standing and anticipating a resolution from Ally, I decided to settle the {$790.00} charge, even though I firmly believe I did not owe this amount. All of this was done to avoid damage to my credit score which was unfairly impacted and damaged by Ally Financial and their careless practices and lack of disregard for their customer 's outcomes.

Issue: Problem when making payments

Subissue: Problem during payment process

Consumer Complaint: I have been with Ally since XX/XX/2023 and before I was with Ollo credit card services. I have never missed one payment nor was late with Ollo. Ally takes over and since XXXX I have had late payments every month. I have auto pay scheduled how is that even possible? I call in after I get a text that my payment is late and I am thinking I am set up for auto pay there must be a mistake. I call Ally and they tell me they see the auto pay but it is not making it to process. How is that my fault? I have had the same checking account same system for years. They do not know themselves. Well XX/XX/XXXX I get a text message that my payment is again late and I call in and with the rep she and I both look and see the auto pay is set up she apologizes and gets a man who is supposed to be escalations supervisor but does not have the authority to credit the late fee because Ally has already credited 2 of the late fees and it has to be approved by a special department. He did not offer to even see why the payments were not making it to process but he as well did see the auto payments coming out on the due date. I have had enough and this is not what I want to be late on my credit cards month after month and then have to ask for a return of a late fee that is not even my fault.

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

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: This is my second letter requesting that your company correct your own mistakes. I have received no response from you and yet you continue to report to the credit bureaus, even verifying this account to them when I dispute it. I am well aware that is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act to continue to report information on an account in dispute, especially when you have failed, per the FCRA and FCBA, to verify the account with documented proof. Therefore, I am humbly requesting, once again, that you either verify this account by providing the following information or delete it completely with any and all credit bureaus to which you are reporting. A detailed and itemized statement of ALL activity to this account, including the contract I must have allegedly signed to bind me to this debt ; The photo identification I must have provided at the time of starting services with you in order for you to assure that this was not an attempt of someone else to commit fraud against me as required by the Patriot Act ( You do take these precautions correct? ) An itemized statement breaking down the balance you claim I owe ; and Any other documentation you must have in order to truthfully make a notarized statement on your letterhead, attesting to your compliance of the FCBA. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

Issue: Struggling to pay mortgage

Subissue: Foreclosure

Consumer Complaint: Back in XXXX, we filed bk XXXX and were XXXX in XXXX. We thought that the second mortgage was removed because ever since the bk was XXXX, we never received any statements or any correspondence from the XXXX. Until after we thought of selling our home, that was when we found out that we had XXXX liens against our property. The broker could not locate the mortgage company at that time. I had to do my research to find out what the mortgage company was. It took me a long time to know that XXXX was sold to Ally Bank. When I reached out to them, they told me that we owed $ XXXX because it accrued interest for almost XXXX years. They mentioned that we were delinquent for over XXXX months The original loan was $ XXXX. That was the only time they started sending me correspondence about our loan. We find it unfair that they never sent us anything before for that many years ( 20 years ), and now they're saying that we owed this much. We could have done something about it before had they sent us some type of statement but they never did. They mentioned that it can go to foreclosure. I had tried to reach out to Ally Bank to request a resolution and applied for a loan modification so that it wouldn't go to foreclosure. Since XX/XX/XXXX, I have been trying to communicate with them and ask for help. I sent them the application for modification and all the required docs many many times but they tend to give their customers the run-around. I have sent them all the needed docs via fax, via email, and mailed them as well. I always had to resent the application and resent the required docs. It was very frustrating to hear that they always was missing docs when every piece of document we sent over and over again. We were trying to do our part but they seem to not do theirs. We feel that they are doing the run-around so that they can foreclose my property. It has been over a year and XXXX that we have been trying to work with them but they aren't willing to help us. The balance keeps growing and It's unjust that they aren't fulfilling their responsibilities even though we are doing our best. All the calls are recorded supposedly. I have proof of emails from way back. I would like to ask for your assistance. Now that they know that the property has equity, they send us correspondence and even try to scare us that they can foreclose it. This lien has been dormant for almost 20 years. I believe it is just right that they remove this lien from the title. I can send all the proofs of communication if needed. Your prompt response would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
