Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.
State: MD
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Managing the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Billing problem

Complaint:
In XX/XX/XXXX my car was stolen and crashed. It was deemed a total loss. My insurance company at the time XXXX ; paid a full amount to Ally in what they thought the car was worth. At that time I begin my XXXX claim to pay the remaining balance. I called ally to request documents such as loan contract, loan balance, payment history, etc. An ally representative informed me that I was not to start my XXXX claim that ally would and they would have to speak with XXXX to negotiate settlement. Ally settled an entire {$500.00} less that I settled for but since XXXX already settled a certain amount with me, they honored our agreement and sent on XX/XX/XXXX the extra {$500.00} to ally. Last week XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted XXXX  and they said they were sending almost {$4000.00} ( {$3700.00} ) to be exact to cover the remaining balance of my car. On XX/XX/XXXX I  noticed that my credit bureau had not been updated and that Ally continues to report a late payment. I called Ally who informed me that the remaining balance was {$1400.00} and some change and that included interest that continued to accrue since XX/XX/XXXX even though Ally has been " helping me '' with this issue. Also, that ally reversed the {$500.00} payment that was extra and sent from XXXX. So we conference call the XXXX adjuster and what do we find that the {$500.00} check was processed from XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. Therefore, there was no way they reversed the amount on XX/XX/XXXX. The end result of my call was that ally was going to have " someone '' call me back!! I will wait until tomorrow and at which time I will be calling ALLY back and will demand to speak to someone asap!! How are you still accruing interest on account you are actively helping settle and how do you lose {$500.00}.

State: SC
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account status incorrect

Complaint:
I was advised to write to you by your customer service department concerning my credit rating with your company. I have enjoyed a credit account with you for many years. During the course of our business association, I have honored and respected my account agreement to the fullest. I appreciate how wonderful your service has always been. 

Unfortunately, I was in a financial dilemma due to job loss. As a result, my payment to you were delayed. Because your account with me is extremely important I managed to borrow the money to cover the late payments. I made sure to fulfill my obligation to ensure that your company suffered no loss. 

I am thankful and appreciative for the years of positive credit history that I have obtained through your company but now the late marks on my credit reports are causing me tremendous stress. I am trying to move up to a better paid position at my work, but the negative remarks are hurting my efforts. 

This is where my " Goodwill Request '' comes in. I desperately need this promotion and I would be extremely appreciative if you would please complete a UDF - Universal Data Form and send it to the credit bureaus to reflect paid on time " never late ''.

The credit bureaus have advised me that they will report anything as instructed to by you, but they need to have that instruction in writing. I will place my account on auto pay and promise to make all payments on time in the future.

I beg that you may help me and take into consideration how good of a customer I have been and how long I have had an account with you. My family very much needs this to pay for medical care that we desperately need. I hope you can find it in your heart to help us.

Company: Harvard Collections, LLC
State: IN
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
While in the process of repairing my credit I noticed an alleged debt from Harvard Collections Services LLC opened in XXXX of XXXX being reported for something that does not belong to me. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX  XXXX I contacted Harvard Collection Services in regards to an alleged debt from XXXX in the amount of {$1300.00}. The agent that I spoke with refused to provide me his name and stated that the alleged debt was in fact mine and that it stemmed from over payment from the state of Illinois for state assistance between the months of XXXX to XXXX of XXXX. I have never resided in the state of Illinois and can't seem to understand why the agent to whom I spoke with advised that I would need to call another phone number and leave a message for a return call in which a representative would call me back for follow up in 7-10 business days. I never received the follow up. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX and left another message. It is now XX/XX/XXXX and I have yet to hear back from Harvard Collections. This alleged debt has been reporting for well over 30 years on my consumer report, which has reached well past the statue of limitations and reporting illegally.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: TX
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Was not notified of investigation status or results

Complaint:
EQUIFAX is being used a scapegoat/diversion/cover-up for the malicious activity that happened to me and for what is potentially happening to other unsuspecting citizens/civilians/consumer of XXXX XXXX XXXX.
There is NOTHING on my EQUIFAX consumer credit report to dispute ...
This continues/appears to be a matter of collusion and suspicious/malicious intent on behalf of XXXX XXXX
What EQUIFAX information was used to reduce my credit line???
My EQUIFAX consumer credit score ( over 700 ) during the time this incident happened is attached to this complaint.
After paying down debt to reduce my debt to credit ratioXXXX XXXX XXXX. reduced my consumer credit line from {$4000.00} to {$1900.00} causing a debt to credit ratio INCREASE which negatively impacted my consumer credit rating and consumer credit scores with ALL major consumer credit reporting agencies. Up toXX/XX/XXXX my XXXX XXXX line of credit for my XXXX XXXX credit card was {$4000.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, 4 days AFTER XXXX XXXX  received my {$2500.00} payment, XXXX XXXX reduced my XXXX XXXX  Consumer Credit Card line of credit to {$1900.00} thus causing my debt to credit ratio to increase from 38 % to 83 %. My XXXX XXXX XXXX  consumer credit card credit reporting payment history is immaculate/on time/never late across all three credit reporting bureaus sinceXX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, at approximately XXXX XXXX, I was told by a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX representative ( XXXX ) that a " periodic '' account review was done which caused my credit line to be decreased. For the record, my XXXX  XXXX and Equifax consumer credit reporting scores were HIGHER than they were when I was granted the initial {$4000.00} line of credit - ATTACHED EQUIFAX CREDIT REPORT FROM XX/XX/XXXX. I received letters from XXXX XXXX stating their decision was based on information from EQUIFAX ... In addition to consumer concerns with using EQUIFAX given what was transpiring with EQUIFAX during the timeframe of this incident, this is not only false representation it 's also malicious intent at the hands of XXXX XXXX. I am a subscriber to a daily consumer credit monitoring service ( ATTACHED EQUIFAX CREDIT REPORT FROM XX/XX/XXXX) and there is NOTHING on my EQUIFAX credit report that substantiates the claim from XX/XX/XXXX

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
For several months my credit report has been reporting inaccurate information across all three credit reporting agencies. Specifically the date of last activity, but there are several other pieces of information reporting incorrectly on these accounts. The FCRA clearly states that credit reporting agencies must report only accurate information and that banks rely on that accuracy as well as the consumer. It specifically states that information reported must be accurate, complete, and verifiable across all three bureaus. I have included screenshots of my credit report that clearly show reporting inaccuracies. These inaccuracies have been shown and disputed with the named credit reporting agencies several times and they willfully verified the accounts as accurate and did not change or update any of the inaccuracies in question. 

On XX/XX/2021 I sent a letter to XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax regarding the following accounts : XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX This account is reporting the wrong date of last activity as well as other information. 

On that day I also sent a letter to XXXX and Equifax regarding the following account : XXXX XXXX Account # XXXX This account is reporting the wrong date of last activity as well as other information. 

All of the credit reporting agencies named above verified the false information as accurate which is a violation of the law. This is willful non-compliance and negligence as well as false credit reporting. I know it is my right to sue in court for these violations and be compensated {$1000.00} per violation.

Company: TRUIST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: NJ
Product: Vehicle loan or lease
Sub-product: Loan
Issue: Problems at the end of the loan or lease
Sub-issue: Unable to receive car title or other problem after the loan is paid off

Complaint:
- Unable to register the car due to Auto Lien is not being provided by TRUIST - Car Loan was fully paid on XX/XX/XXXX - As per TRUIST, they have released the Auto Lien to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX - There is no TRACKING NUMBER or PROOF that it was really mailed. 
- I have called Truist multiple times and they have provided different answers every time - XX/XX/XXXX - First, the agent said 2-3 days- Second, after waiting for three days, called again and the agent said 7 days and they have a backlog- Third, after 7 days, the agent said it was already mailed and I should check my mail box- Fourth, after 3 more days, called again and the agent said that its still in-progress and that we just need to call again in 2 days.

- Fifth, called again after 2 days and they again said that they have already mailed the LIEN on XX/XX/XXXX and that wait again for few days - Sixth, called again and said that we need to call or go to the XXXX and asked them if they have received the copy of the LIEN/TITLE - Seventh, after one day, was able to get in touch with XXXX and they informed us that they have not received anything from Truist Bank about my LIEN - Eight, after one day, went to XXXX personally to verify but they also said that they have not received anything from Truist. So called the agent again to ask for Tracking Number for the mail but they said there is really none and that we just have to wait. 

All I want is the LIEN so that I can register the car because it will be affecting my family day-to-day activities. And since it's fully paid, I believe I have the right to get the title or lien.
