Public data from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (US government work), free for anyone to use. A complaint count is not a rate. A company with more customers can draw more complaints and a state with more people draws more, so this page compares counts only and ranks no one as better or worse. A complaint is a consumer's own account and does not by itself show that a company broke a law. The CFPB publishes a complaint after the company responds, or after 15 days, whichever comes first, and the database is not a statistical sample of consumers' experiences. Company responses are as the company reported them to the CFPB. The CFPB's product names changed over time, and the counts of the three years combine the old and new names of credit reporting. Consumer narratives and names are not shown on this page. This page uses CFPB data and is not endorsed by the CFPB. Free to reuse with credit to SpecStream under CC BY 4.0. Spot a wrong value?
