# Machol & Johannes, LLC

**226** CFPB complaints filed · responded on time 92.0%

> **Read the count carefully.** Complaint volume largely reflects company SIZE and PRODUCT MIX (the largest firms and credit bureaus get the most), not quality — and there is no size denominator here. It is NOT a quality ranking.

## What people complain about

| Product | Complaints |
| --- | --- |
| Debt collection | 213 |
| Student loan | 4 |
| Credit card | 4 |

**Most-cited issues:** Attempts to collect debt not owed · Took or threatened to take negative or legal action · Disclosure verification of debt · False statements or representation

## What this is — and is NOT (interpretation)

A CFPB complaint is an **unverified consumer allegation** — not a finding, not proven wrongdoing, and not a verdict by the CFPB. The count is not a quality ranking (it tracks size and product mix). This is not advice about doing business with Machol & Johannes, LLC, and not legal advice. "Responded on time" means the company answered within CFPB's window, not that the consumer was satisfied.
