I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against Ally Financial for providing inaccurate information on my credit report, in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. 
I recently reviewed my credit report and found that XXXX XXXX has reported erroneous information regarding my account. The details are as follows : Creditor : Ally Financial Account Number : XXXX Inaccuracy : Number of months terms, dates of last activity, conflicting comments, number of months review, term source type XXXX have made several attempts to resolve this matter directly with Ally Financial, but my efforts have been unsuccessful. Despite providing them with evidence proving the inaccuracy, the incorrect information remains on my credit report. This inaccurate reporting has negatively impacted my credit score and has caused me significant distress. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, XXXX XXXX is obligated to report accurate information. By providing false information, they are in violation of federal law, which mandates that all information furnished to credit reporting agencies be accurate and complete. 
I request that the CFPB intervene in this matter and ensure that XXXX XXXX immediately corrects the inaccurate information and updates all three major credit reporting agenciesEquifax, XXXX, and XXXX. I also request that XXXX XXXX provide me with written confirmation once the corrections have been made. 
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that the CFPB will take prompt action to resolve this issue and protect my consumer rights.

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low — Non-sufficient funds and associated fees
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (NY)

As the first XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in my neighborhood, I chose Bank of America to open my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX In my XXXX I managed a modest but meaningful collection of donations that I needed to keep secure. At the time, the minimum balance required to avoid monthly fees was {$3000.00}. Shortly after opening the account, I faced several challenges : updating my account information became difficult due to a legal name change after my marriage, multiple address changes, and issues accessing my online account. When I called customer service, they consistently linked my number to my personal account, resulting in a 30-minute wait to get redirected to my business account. Visiting the bank in person was also a challenge, as the limited hours conflicted with my job, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Recently, I discovered that around XX/XX/2021, during the height of the pandemic, Bank of America raised the minimum balance requirement to avoid fees from {$3000.00} to {$5000.00} and started charging my account {$16.00} a month. When I asked the bank when this change occurred, they couldn't provide a clear answer, and it seemed other accounts were affected much later. This raises concerns : was my account specifically targeted because they knew I couldn't meet the new minimum balance? 

I can not add more funds to reach the {$5000.00} minimum or spend {$250.00} a month to avoid fees because I am not currently XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  It would be both illegal and irresponsible to use XXXX XXXX XXXX to meet these requirements. 

The main issue is that I was never notifiedby paper or emailabout this increase in the minimum balance required to avoid fees. Despite receiving emails on other matters, I was not informed about this. Reaching customer service, whether online, by phone, or in person, has been designed to be a frustrating experience, especially during peak COVID times when this change was implemented. It also appears that my account may have been unfairly targeted for this change earlier than others. To date, I have been charged {$620.00} in fees, and I am requesting a waiver for this amount. I will close this account soon to avoid further charges.
