Complaint narrative:
This very important and there is so much more to say but I don't know how or what to do. On XX/XX/XXXX I was the victim of identity and fraud. The thieves filed a claim with my bank, XXXX, for the last three months of car payments that I had made, I have documentation, and the bank placed a credit for the amount of {$1100.00}, while it was happening I was made aware that fraud was happening to my account, I called XXXX and alerted they're security department of what was / had happened. They tried to stop it but the crooks had already taken the money. Which caused an over draft for the money. I received a letter from XXXX stating that they had finished their investigation and had removed the credit, as they should have. And on the date stated in the letter, the XX/XX/XXXX, I thought that they would have credited back to my car loan company the  money. They had not released the money. I started getting phone calls from the finance company, Global Lending services LLC telling me that I was three months behind on my payments. I explained that I was the one who informed them that they and I were the victims of fraud and that I had filled reports with both the FBI and XXXX Police department for the incident and that XXXX was supposed to release the money around the 19 th. They didn't release the money. I started getting phone calls from the finance company, each one meaner then the prior call. I kept explaining, and I got no where. 
XXXX didn't give me a reason why the money wasn't released. I have been in communication with the finance company the whole time this is happening. If I had missed a call from Global Lending services LLC, I always called back. On Monday I had two missed calls, one was unknown number and one was anonymous. Only one left a voicemail and I couldn't understand what they said. Tuesday morning at XXXX XXXX I went out to my car and it was gone. I called Global Lending services LLC and found that they had repossessed my car. When I asked why, again, I'm supposed to be behind by 3 months. I asked why wasn't I contacted and was told that I ignored their phone calls. That's when I remembered the calls mentioned above. I replayed the voicemail, I listened to it six different times before I could figure out who and what they said, very low and fast, " Global Lending services. '' That was all. I saved it. I spent the next several hours on the phone with XXXX and Global Lending services LLC and that is when I finally found someone with XXXX to tell me that they didn't intend to release the money until the XX/XX/XXXX. When I asked why it was because they could, they said that the law gave  them 45 days before they had to release the funds. When I told them that they had repossessed my car the only thing that they said was sorry. Meanwhile Global Lending services LLC is reporting that they repossessed my car with the credit bureaus for late payments
