Complaint narrative:
The items listed below are reported on my personal credit file and were found in my reports with Experian and XXXX credit reporting agencies. These items were opened fraudulently. Ive informed all parties of the issue & provided the necessary documentation to support my claim. The credit reporting agency ( CRA ) & data furnisher ( DF ) are not complying with federal law in regard to identity theft. Additionally, the credit reporting agency & data furnisher have not provided me with any evidence of an open contract, signed contract, or any valid proof this was opened, authorized, or created by me. Since this is a strict violation of FCRA laws I need the items removed from my file.

Company: ALLY FINANCIAL INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally lodge a comprehensive complaint against Ally Financial for their role in the unfair and deceptive practices during my purchase of a XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. 

XXXX  Misrepresentation of Loan Terms : Ally Financial processed and approved a loan for my vehicle, which I believed to have an interest rate of XXXX  % based on the initial invoice contract dated XX/XX/XXXX. However, upon receipt of my first billing statement, I found that the interest rate was substantially higher, at XXXX  %. This discrepancy has resulted in a significantly increased financial burden and inflated overall cost of the vehicle. 

2.  Inconsistent Financing Terms : The terms of the loan presented to me were inconsistent. The initial invoice contract stated the price and financing terms clearly but did not mention any stipulations related to arbitration. However, the subsequent Retail Installment Contract signed on XX/XX/XXXX, introduced an arbitration clause, significantly altering the terms to my disadvantage. This change was neither clarified nor adequately explained to me. 

3.  Undisclosed Relationships and Potential Kickbacks : I have reasons to believe that Ally Financial and XXXX XXXX XXXX may have a pre-existing business relationship, possibly involving kickbacks or incentives, which was not disclosed to me during the negotiation or finalization of my vehicle purchase. This lack of transparency raises concerns about the fairness and legitimacy of the loan terms and interest rate. 

4. Noncompliance with TILA : Ally Financial 's failure to accurately disclose the terms of my auto loan, as well as their potential noncompliance with the arbitration disclosure requirements, may constitute violations of the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ). TILA mandates that lenders provide borrowers with clear, accurate, and meaningful information about the cost and terms of credit. 

These alleged malpractices by Ally Financial are not only detrimental to me but also potentially harmful to a wider consumer base. I, therefore, appeal to the CFPB to exercise its authority to investigate and rectify these injustices. 

Thank you for your time and consideration. I am confident that the CFPB will uphold its commitment to consumer protection and ensure fair practices in the auto financing industry.

Company: SANTANDER HOLDINGS USA, INC.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Under the GLBA, financial institutions must deliver notices to customers regarding the collection and information sharing policies; providing customers with the choice to opt-out if they do not want their information shared with nonaffiliated third parties. See, 15 U.S.C. 6802 ( b ) In reference to the account ending in XXXX, I was never provided with the option to opt out of the furnishing of my private information to Credit Bureaus. I did not under any circumstance, subscribe or agree to the sharing of my information & I have incurred damages due to the tarnishing of my Financial Reputation without my permission. 

There was also an issue of the mischaracterization of charges, which I challenged by requesting the itemization of the finance charge. The company has failed to provide me with the itemization of the finance charge, thus failing to provide true & accurate validation of debt. The importance of understanding the content of the finance charge is paramount to validating the validity of the contract under Federal Regulation. 

The purpose of this consumer purchase was to acquire a vehicle for personal use & it clearly states that the holder of this consumer credit contract is subject to all claims and defenses which the debtor could assert against the seller of goods or services obtained pursuant thereof or with the proceeds thereof, on the back of the contract.

Complaint narrative:
Harvest Strategy Group made an unauthorized inquiry on my XXXX XXXX consumer report. I do not have an account with them, never gave them permission and they did not have any permissible purpose under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I have attempted to resolve this issue in the past but they ignored my previous complaint and never sent me any correspondence. They have accessed my personally identifiable information and as a result of this unauthorized act, I may be potentially exposed to identity theft. No consent is Identity theft. I have pursued legal action against them because they refused to respond and my privacy has been invaded and is at great risk. See attachments.
