Date Received: 2018-01-30

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account status incorrect

Consumer Complaint: I have an auto account with Ally Financial. I have received 30 day late payments on my credit report on three occasions. My payment is due on the XXXX, XXXX or XXXX of each month depending on the month. I was having some problems receiving statements and spoke to a customer service representative about this. I was not quite sure when my exact payment due date was and was running late making my payment due to a personal issue. I made my XX/XX/XXXX payment onXX/XX/XXXX thinking XX/XX/XXXX was the due date and that this would get the payment in before I was 30 days late. I was incorrect and the due date was XX/XX/XXXX. I spoke to an Ally representative that understood I had issues receiving my statements and assured me I would not be reported late on my credit. after I was reported late I was assured again by customer service that this would be removed and to date it has not. I made sure to get this caught up and always make my payment before it could be marked 30 days late. Then came XX/XX/XXXX, again I am marked 30 days late. I spoke with an Ally representative and they verified that I made my XX/XX/XXXX payment on XX/XX/XXXX. Therefore this payment is not late. Then again in XX/XX/XXXX I was marked 30 days late. An ally representative told me I made my payment on XX/XX/XXXX. I actually have proof that I made this payment on XX/XX/XXXX. Again the payment is not late. I am attaching proof of the conversations I have had with Ally as well as copies of the payments which prove I made on time payments in XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. As it stands now I still have not received statements in the mail and I do not have online access to view them. I never know when my due date is because it is an inconsistent day each month. I would like these late payments removed from my credit and my cosigners.

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: I reached out to Ally for information on my payments because on my credit report its reporting as a charge off for early termination. I don't understand why i have been bill as all 39 payments were made in a total of {$21000.00}. Additionally when i spoke to the representative at ally she stated that the last payment made on the account was of {$27.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. Every time i speak to one of the collection agency that is taking care of the account which i believe have been two different companies they give me a different explanation to why I'm being charged. First is was for parking tickets under the title, second was early termination, Third late payment and now excessive miles and tear on the car. I believe that there payment statement is incorrect as its missing payments made to the account. Now every time I call Ally financial they forward me to the collection agency. It is very upsetting that I'm not able to speak to them in regards to the problem as i believe that the information that they are reporting its incorrect and its affecting my credit score.

Issue: Struggling to pay your loan

Subissue: Lender trying to repossess or disable the vehicle

Consumer Complaint: I am an XXXX XXXX, looking for permanent job. I was not able to pay full installments for the past three months for my car. I was in arrears of {$710.00} for the three months inclusive of late charges. Ally, didn't inform me that they'll come to repossess my car either by calling or email or post as they do with statements and other things. I woke up today to find my car gone. When I called l discovered they towed it. Now they want me to pay more than my arrears to get the car when they didn't inform me they'll repossess and towaway the car. That's unfair and wrong. I need your help.

Subissue: Lender trying to repossess or disable the vehicle

Consumer Complaint: On XX/XX/, 2018, XXXX XXXX repossessed my car. I have called their redemption department as directed. After waiting on the line for 45 minutes it disconnected me. I called back to be told that the lady who told me to call the redemption department gave me the wrong time and they didnt open till XXXX XXXX Central. So i waited till XXXX XXXX Central time and called again. After waiting on the line for another 45 minutes, the operator told me they were closed and to call back between XXXX and XXXX XXXX Central time. It was already XXXX. I still do not know the correct time they are open. I have called back several times and after 45 minutes, it disconnects me. I keep calling the main line back and they insist they are not able to give me any info. I must contact the redemption department but I can not get ahold of them.

Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Subissue:

Consumer Complaint: Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Ally bank made a mistake on my mortgage loan. I proved it to them. They eventually admitted it. However, they seem to refuse to resolve the problem. I had a new construction built for me with a construction loan. When the house was near completion, I chose Ally Bank to refinance the loan as my permanent lender. They mistakenly processed my loan as a secondary residence when in reality it was my primary residence. I noticed the mistake early in the process. They said they would fix it. But they continued to process the loan incorrectly as a secondary residence. The major timeline of events are as follows : - In an email dated XXXX XXXX, my loan coordinator XXXX XXXX informed me that my disclosures were ready for me to review. I noticed that the pre-filled application marked my home as a secondary residence. - In an email dated XXXX XXXX, I informed XXXX XXXX about the mistake and that it should be marked as a primary residence. In an email dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX said that the loan would be for a primary residence. - At the closing of my new house on XXXX XXXX, the closer noticed that the paperwork still had my home marked as a secondary residence. She advised that we continue with the loan anyway and that I should bring the mistake to Allys attention afterwards. After closing, I immediately phoned my loan coordinator XXXX XXXX and told him the situation. - Ally stated that the only way to change the status of my home to a primary residence would be through a refinance. In an email dated XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, the person XXXX XXXX forwarded me to, said that interest rates had gone up and that he might be able to cover some of the costs but not all. - After they ceased communication with me, I threatened to report the incident to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. XXXX XXXX contacted me soon after, finally admitting to the mistake. He tried to convince me that there would be no adverse affects to leaving the loan unchanged. I did not like this option. - On XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX called me and left a voicemail. After apologizing and acknowledging that it was Allys mistake, she told me that she had the ability to change the residency without refinancing. I attempted to call her multiple times and left voicemails. Her voicemail to me on XXXX XXXX is the last communication Ally has made with me. Attachments : - Email showing that I noticed the mistake early and asked them to fix it. - Email showing that they would fix it. - Voicemail admitting their mistake and how they would fix it.
