Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Problem making or receiving payments

Consumer Complaint: Account XXXX XXXX. Ally banks call center supervisor XXXX refused to provide me with the necessary information that was required for my banking needs. I called and asked a bank representative to add in my external bank account details. Later I found out that the representative put the wrong external bank account details. I called the bank and I was told the bank will send two small deposits to my external bank account for verification. I was confirmed that this two small deposits will now be marked as a default transfer as the bank account details are incorrect. ( something that is not my fault ) A supervisor named XXXX took the phone call. I asked her what the banks criteria is for next business day delivery for ach transfers and if this wrong account numbers put by a bank representative over the phone will affect that criteria. XXXX refused to provide that information.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Problem with the interest rate

Consumer Complaint: The finance company gave me a different interest rate than what was told to me at the time of the sale. They had full access to my account and would automatically take out my payment on a non payday, causing me to rack up late fees. When I ask to move my payment to my payday they informed me that they did but they really didn't. And with doing this it put me upside down in my vehicle within the first 5 months of having this car. I have been dealing with this now for 2 years because no one will touch it with the interest rate they have me at, and they still will not budge on anything. Within the 2 year i have tried to get out from under this company and still nothing because i am now so far negative on this note. I am still paying my car note on my payday and still receiving late fees. I do not feel like i got a good deal on my car or the financing. I strongly feel like they are railroading me and the car is only Valued at {$7900.00} if anything. They car was price at XXXX. After 5 months of having this vehicle the car was priced at XXXX. I drive a used 2013 XXXX XXXX with now XXXX miles on it. I am looking at paying way more than what the car is worth. Plus everytime i call to get a pay out the amount is always different. In 1 weekend the payout amount went from XXXX to 15k-plus to XXXX. to the final {$15000.00}. Nothing is adding up with this finance company. And I want to put them on notice and if anything stop them from taking advantage of people. My credit has been completely shot due to ALLY Financial. I am now having to somehow start over just to get my credit decent.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Problem making or receiving payments

Consumer Complaint: Hello, I work with a company overseas. They use XXXX transactions to send money. My bank is Ally Bank. Ally apparently does not have their own XXXX code, they use a code through XXXX XXXX. This seems to be the heart of the issue. I worked very carefully to get all of the information to give the company from Ally. I gave it to them as directed. But my transactions never came through. The sending bank XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX made two separate transfers. 1st payment : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX Euros 2nd payment : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX for XXXX Euros As far as what the told me, the money did not come back to them. I called Ally on many many occasions. I called on XX/XX/XXXX I called on XX/XX/XXXX I called on XX/XX/XXXX. This time they told me they needed the 'tracing number ' of the original payments. I called back a week later with the tracing information. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX I called again on XX/XX/XXXX I called again on XX/XX/XXXX Ally escalated it to an executive resolutions team. The executive resolutions team did an investigations and told me that they will not be able to do anything. XXXX said that they would only begin an investigation if the receiving bank requested it. Ally refuses to look into this matter any further. Right now, I have over 400 Euros sitting in an account somewhere and Ally ( my bank ) refuses to send an e-mail to XXXX asking where it is.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Problem with fees charged

Consumer Complaint: I have an account with Ally financial and their site has been down for multiple days and will not allow logins. I have attempted to contact them to get this resolved, yet it is not. This prohibits making payments. Yet, when I called in, apparently a new charge has been filed as a late fee. Ally is not a responsible or capable lender and must get this issue addressed.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Cashing a check

Consumer Complaint: I sold a large piece of shop equipment ( a XXXX XXXX ) through XXXX. The buyer paid by check for {$11000.00}, which including paying for the machine itself ( {$9500.00} ) and additional payment for disassembling the machine ( {$2000.00} ). I said to the buyer : " a check is fine but I'm not giving you the address of the machine or access to disassemble until the check has cleared. '' The check did clear in 48 hours and all funds were in my checking account and so I gave access to the machine so that the buyer 's disassembler could start disassembling / packing - and, as I had agreed with the buyer, I paid the buyer 's disassembler $ XXXX. Five days after the check had clear, Ally Bank " uncleared '' the check and took {$11000.00} out of my savings account, claiming that either the check was fraudulent or insufficient funds. Ally Bank claims it was my responsibility to ensure the check was valid - but Ally Bank 's own terms and conditions / FAQs, etc. place no such burden on me and in fact state the opposite : that funds from checks should clear within 48 hours unless Ally Bank places a hold for further diligence ( which didn't happen ). But for Ally Bank 's incompetence in clearing the check, I would not have paid the disassembler $ XXXX.

Issue: Managing an account

Subissue: Deposits and withdrawals

Consumer Complaint: on XX/XX/2019 i tried to deposit a check to my Ally Bank checking account. The check bounced due to no fault of mine. The check i was depositing came via an online payment check sent by XXXX XXXX XXXX to me. I was simply depositing it to my Ally Bank account. XXXX made a mistake and advised Ally Bank that the corresponding account had been closed. XXXX admitted the error and offered to pay the fee Ally charged me for the bounced check. The problem i am writing about is that Ally closed my account due to this. The issue with the deposit was not my fault but Ally did not care. They vindictively held a simple mistake against me. I tried to reach their management for a response and they refused to speak with me. This is vindictive and terrible customer service and very discriminatory.

Issue: Getting a loan or lease

Subissue: Credit denial

Consumer Complaint: This company has denied me a loan when I have a 700+ credit score, 0 % debt to income ratio and a {$10000.00} monthly income. I have paid multiple car loans and dont have any missed payments on my credit report. This company gives loans to clients who make less money, have more debt with a lower score. I feel as if I have been discriminated against because of my age and color. They dont want a XXXX year old XXXX man buying a brand new XXXX.
