Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: I set up payments in my XXXX app the same way I always do and for some reason it did not go through. It went through the previous 2 months and it was set up the same way. I had no idea it didnt go through until my boyfriend said Ally keeps calling me and telling me my car payment is late but then they pull up my account and say its fine we arent sure why anyone is calling you. I never got any type of notification it was late and didnt know my payment didnt go through. Finally he asked a bunch of questions because he was frustrated they kept calling and realized they were calling for me. I looked at my paperwork from the dealership and they used his phone number and some of his other info on my application my mistake ( he also has a car loan with Ally and applied to get a new car at the same time I did ). As soon as I realized what happened I called and made the payment. I told the representative what happened and she said shed put in a request to not report to the credit bureau because it was a mistake from the dealership and if Id have been notified it didnt go through or was late or received a reminder it would have been paid on time. This is more so a complaint for the car dealership for their error but I dont feel like I should be penalized for that. Id just like the 30 day late removed please. They did waive the late fee.

Issue: Written notification about debt

Subissue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Consumer Complaint: Again and again while obtaining my credit report I've noticed inaccurate and fabricated information on my credit report regarding the account of Ally Financial Bank ... See attachment!!! On report XXXX date of last activity section of the following listing. Experian '' is reporting a date of last activity of XX/XX/2018. However, Transunion is reporting a date of last activity XX/XX/2018. If this is the same account, reported by the same creditor how are numbers different? THIS IS IN VIOLATION OF MY RIGHTS. This account has been so negatively impacting my life. While they are continuing reporting inaccuracies I have been disputing this for more than a year it has not been resolved. With little to no response back. I request that this account to be removed from my credit reports immediately due the face Ally Financial is reporting inaccurate and inconsistent information on my credit report.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: I have had my loan open less then 2 months only had 1 payment due during this time. The first payment I made of XXXX on my account through the finance app provide from the finance company I choose the selection to apply to amount financed which also a payment was not due at the time making this an additional payment. The bank took interest out of that payment and refuses to reallocate the funds to where they were suppose to go. My current payment is {$570.00} I made my first monthly payment of {$1000.00} dollars almost doubling my first monthly payment had no issue with that cause I know finance charges must come out of the monthly normal payment. 5-6 days later I went back on the same finance application to pay another {$240.00} towards my principal I called the bank before hand to make sure it would be a PRINCIPAL ONLY PAYMENT. The rep assured me that is correct a PRINCIPAL ONLY PAYMENT NO INTEREST TAKEN OUT. Well the payment was finally adjusted on my finance and for the second time theyve taken interest out of my PRINCIPAL ONLY payment. They refuse to reallocate the money. What do I do??

Issue: Struggling to pay your loan

Subissue: Denied request to lower payments

Consumer Complaint: On or about XXXX XX/XX/2021 I was contacted by telephone from Ally Auto and the representative told me her name was XXXX XXXX The rep began to ask me if I was who she called for and after verifying she was from Ally Auto I responded yes I am and she immediately began to divulge my debt including the amount, and the late payment status. I first asked her were there any recent notes because I spoke with another rep within the last two weeks and she advised me of a promise to pay note from XX/XX/2021. I stated I was very happy that I record these conversations because I explained numerous times that since XX/XX/2021 I suffered an on the job injury and between the Pandemic and the injury that my income is now reduced substantially. XXXX told me that there was no notes of that. I also explained to her and previous reps that Ally has not tried to work with me to make these payments more affordable. They have not tried. Now while XXXX continued to give me the information about my debt she failed to verify first who she was speaking with meaning if I was the actual debtee by verifying pertinent information for security which is required by Federal Law. Simply using the phone number as she said she did because " prior colleagues contacted me using the same phone number '' is not abiding by the rules of debt collection and financial security.

Date Received: 2021-05-27

Issue: Getting a loan or lease

Subissue: Fraudulent loan

Consumer Complaint: This vehicle was initially supposed to be financed with my now ex-husband. I never signed the contract. I asked that the contract not be submitted. The dealership tore the contract up in front of me. I later found out that the dealership had already submitted the contract with my forged signature to Ally despite me asking that it not be submitted. I spoke with Ally and informed them this loan was fraudulent on several occasions. They suggested that I have the vehicle refinanced to remove my name from the account. The issue is that my ex-husband is in possession of the vehicle, and will not refinance it. Once the divorce was finalized I received court documentation that I am no longer responsible for this vehicle. All payments and collection activity should be removed from my credit report per this judgment. I spoke with Ally and asked them to remove the account. I told them I had the court documentation and was able to provide them with said information. They again requested I refinance despite me again stating this loan was fraudulent on their recorded lines. I have since disputed this loan with the credit bureaus, but they returned saying divorce was not enough of a reason to force Ally to remove this account. Again this account is FRAUD. That should have been sufficient enough to have my name removed from this account. I never actually signed the contract that was submitted. My signature was forged which I also explained to them. I have tried on multiple occasions to work with Ally in regard to this account, but they have refused to work with me.
