Understanding Consumer Complaints
PlainComplaint transforms the CFPB Consumer Complaint Database into a searchable resource for consumers, journalists, and researchers. Every year, hundreds of thousands of Americans file complaints about financial products and services with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. These complaints cover everything from credit reporting errors and debt collection practices to mortgage servicing problems and bank account fees. PlainComplaint makes this data easy to explore by company, product category, issue type, and state.
Whether you are researching a company before opening an account, investigating complaint trends in your state, or comparing how financial institutions handle consumer disputes, PlainComplaint provides the data you need. Every complaint record includes the company response, whether relief was provided, and whether the consumer disputed the outcome. Use the search bar above to look up any company, or browse by product category, issue type, or state below.
All data comes directly from the CFPB's public database. A complaint does not mean a company violated any law. Complaint volume is influenced by company size and customer base. We encourage users to consider this data alongside other sources when making financial decisions.
According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, PlainComplaint compiles 16.2M consumer complaints across 8.0K companies, last refreshed June 2026; see our methodology for the full source list.
