I keep a XXXX  balance on all my credit cards,20 cards XXXX balance. When I got in touch with XXXX XXXX they said I owed {$19.00}, I said for what and they said it was an annual charge. I said why wasn't I called or notified by mail, or email. She said lots of things don't work the same as they use to, due to the covid. I said I should have been notified. Look at my credit and you will see that I never miss a payment. I was not properly notified by my bank XXXX XXXX nor XXXX XXXX. There has never been a time that I did not have {$19.00}. I pride myself on having a XXXX  balance. I knew I had no debt or thought I had no debt. XXXX XXXX reversed all charges, late fees. XXXX XXXX apologised for not tying my checking to overdraft. Please help me I feel so taken advantage of by people you can't even talk to. I really have done nothing to deserve this.

I just received a copy of my credit report and to my surprise, I noticed that my right to privacy has been violated. By no means have I given you any permission to report non-public personal information without written consent. Nor have I provided any financial institution, or third party ( collection agencies ) authority to obtain any information. 

In regards to 15 U.S. Code 6802 Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information ( c ) Limits on reuse of information Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, a nonaffiliated third party that receives from a financial institution nonpublic personal information under this section shall not, directly or through an affiliate of such receiving the third party, disclose such information to any other person that is a nonaffiliated third party of both the financial institution and such receiving the third party, unless such disclosure would be lawful if made directly to such other person by the financial institution. 

I do not consent to any third party obtaining non-personal information without my knowledge or notice. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) was enacted to protect the confidential information on consumers ' credit reports from misuse, fraud, and theft. It gives consumers the right to ensure that the information on their credit reports is not only correct but private. 

Also in accordance with 15 U.S. Code 1681a Definitions ; rules of construction, ( 2 ) ( C ) any report in which a person who has been requested by a third party to make a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly to a consumer conveys his or her decision with respect to such request, if the third party advises the consumer of the name and address of the person to whom the request was made, and such person makes the disclosures to the consumer required under section 1681m of this title.

Due to the breach of my privacy, I am requesting the following items be Deleted Immediately.

Issue: Unable to get your credit report or credit score
Sub-issue: Other problem getting your report or credit score

Complaint:
I have been attempting to get a HELOC for over 3 weeks. I have reached out to Equifax on multiple times requesting that they release my information for these loans. The interest rates and equity fluctuate with the market. They are costing me money and valuable renovation time with holding up the release of my credit file. The first 2 weeks they advised there were no blocks, finally someone told me to send my DL and SSC on Friday XX/XX/2022. While this was the first time requested I immediately faxed to the provided number XXXX. I was told this would be updated immediately. Unfortunately that was not the case after following up again and spending a total of about 3 hours on the phone I was advised that it could take up to 5 days before my information is corrected. This is an abuse to me and costing me higher interest rates and delayed projects because of their systems and insufficient staff to adequately resolve customer issues!

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.
State: TX
Product: Checking or savings account
Sub-product: Checking account
Issue: Managing an account
Sub-issue: Deposits and withdrawals

Complaint:
I have a checking/saving account with Ally Bank XXXX I was sent a check to deposit which ended up being fraudulent. I was not aware of the check being fraudulent. I asked to cancel the deposit. I destroyed the check. It was sent to me from an online relationship. The bank proceeded to freeze my account. I had money in the account to pay my rent and they returned the check for my my rent. This caused me to receive an eviction notice. They have not allowed me access to my funds for over a week. This is not acceptable. I need access to my money. I asked them to just close the account and send my funds to a new bank. They will not do that. I have never had a bank behave in this manner. I have had fraud investigations before for fraudulent activity on my account but my account was not frozen so that I could not access my funds. In this day and times, individuals have people that access their credit information and abuse their information. Unfortunately, this is the norm today. This is my income that that they have frozen. This is my livelihood. What right do they have to freeze my income? They have now cost me additional fees due to the returned check to my landlord.

Product: Student loan

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Trouble with how payments are being handled

Complaint:
This started when I attempted to see if the recent SAVE act would decrease my monthly payments. 

I put in my data into Aidvantage 's website, and they automatically enrolled me in a payment plan that increased my monthly payments by almost XXXX. See screenshots. 

I immediately tried to change my payment plan back, but Aidvantage has prevented me from being able to do so. 

I emailed them as directed on XX/XX/XXXX, and received a 'no reply ' email that indicated I would receive a response in 2 business days. It is now 15 days later with no response. 

You can not call them since no one answers the phone. You can not 'request a call back ' as on their website as all times are blocked out. 

They are attempting to lock me into a higher loan payment and this negligence should be criminal.
