What makes an effective complaint?
The best complaints are the ones that explain, clearly and concisely:
What happens after I submit?
After you’ve submitted your complaint you can check its status at consumerfinance.gov/complaint or by calling us at (855) 411-CFPB (2372). We’ll also send you email updates along the way so you know where you are in the process, and what’s next.
After the company responds to your complaint, we’ll email you, and you can log back in to review the response and give us any feedback.
Every complaint helps us in our work to supervise companies, enforce federal consumer financial laws, and write better rules and regulations. You speaking up gives us important insight into the issues you face as a consumer, so thank you!
