Issue: Problem when making payments

Subissue: Problem during payment process

Consumer Complaint: On XXXX XXXX XXXX I made an electronic payment to my Ollo card in the amount of {$520.00}. This would pay the card off in full. On XX/XX/XXXX Ollo debited my checking account in the amount of {$520.00}. The problem came in on XX/XX/XXXX, when they duplicated that debit leaving me a credit on my account of {$520.00} and my checking account was debited in the amount of {$520.00} XXXX separate times. I made an assumption that this was a mistake and would clear itself up, or that I would have access to the additional money through Ollo. I checked my account with Ollo and it showed that I have a credit on my account of {$520.00}. Here is the issue : On XX/XX/XXXX, I attempted to use the {$520.00} and was declined. I called the customer service department and they told me that it would take XXXX weeks to get the additional payment back, there was no way to expedite the refund or give me access to the money any sooner. I find this to be a deceptive practice since they made no attempt to refund the over payment until I called and complained. I also find this to be unfair since they have my money and are refusing to refund it in a timely manner. They already have had that money for 7 days, they are stating that it will be another 14 days to get it back. Finally this is abusive as had I known that they were not going to give me access to the funds, I would have made a request immediately to have the funds returned to me.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement

Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Consumer Complaint: A few months back, I applied for and was approved for a small Ally credit card. Within a month, Ally updated their software, and from what I have been told by numerous reps on the phone, " screwed up a lot of accounts ''. Mine was one of them. As a result, I am unable to access my online account either through the app or desktop. Ally allowed serious fraud on my account while I am unable to see my account. I reported it initially and the individual on the phone never submitted a fraud report. The second woman I spoke to took the time and completed the first womans job and her own. She was wonderful and I can not thank her enough. Though unfortunately, numerous other calls have had to be made regarding the fact I can not still view my account. I keep being told my case is upgraded to tech support, who has never responded to me and never fixed the problem. It's been months on an account that was allowed to have fraud on it. Ally also kept withdrawing from my bank account, funds to cover the fraud each month. The last call, two nights ago, I was treated like a common criminal. The woman was extremely unhelpful, she was rude, she kept telling me she could not hear me and I should call back ( attempting to get off the phone with me ) and when I asked to speak with a manager, she informed me they were busy and would call me back later that night. No one ever did. I am extremely upset on how I have been treated and allowing fraud on my account while not allowing me to view my account to help rectify the damage that may have been done to my credit and most of all, my character as unjustly defined by credit and financial status.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Funds not handled or disbursed as instructed

Consumer Complaint: Ally Invest promised to pay me a {$100.00} incentive if I open an account with them and make 3 or more regularly recurring deposits into my new account. I did exactly that, around the beginning of this year. Even though I met all the qualification, and they confirmed that I have met the qualification, after so many chats and emails where they promised " oh your bonus will come soon don't worry '', I still have not received the {$100.00}. I have used so much time and energy on this over the last 3 months and now it's getting ridiculous. They just keep saying the same thing, keep giving me empty promises.

Issue: Improper use of your report

Subissue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Consumer Complaint: This is my complaint to ALLY FINANCIAL for taking no action on correcting and removing the fraudulent accounts that are still reflected on my credit report and continue to damage my reputation. I sent out several dispute letters but until this time no further action has been taken. I have attached my FTC report with report number XXXX. I was expecting that they will be reporting accurate information on my file but it seems they are not.
