Read the volume carefully. How many complaints a product draws tracks how many people use it and how large its companies are — not how "bad" it is. (Credit reporting is ~80% of all CFPB complaints because the bureaus hold records on nearly every adult and disputes are the #1 category.) The fair signal here is the timely-response rate — how reliably companies answer — which, unlike raw volume, isn't a function of size.

Companies most complained about for this product

Highest complaint volume (context — it tracks size and market share, not a ranking of who's worst), shown next to each company's timely-response rate, the comparable signal.

Most companies respond on time, so this rate matters most where it is notably lower. A low rate means a company more often failed to answer within CFPB's window — it does not measure whether consumers were satisfied. And every count here is an unverified consumer allegation, not proven wrongdoing.

What these figures mean

  • RECORDED — the complaint count, issue breakdown, and timely-response rate are CFPB records of complaints consumers filed.
  • MODELED — "Other financial service" merges 1 CFPB product label (Other financial service) into one category so the same product isn't split across CFPB's legacy labels. The counts are unchanged.
  • CONTEXT — volume is not a ranking (it tracks reach and size, with no denominator); timely-response measures answering within CFPB's window, not consumer satisfaction.

What this is — and is not

A CFPB complaint is an unverified consumer allegation — not a finding, not proven wrongdoing, and not a verdict by the CFPB or anyone else. This is not a ranking of which product or company is "worst," and not advice about a product or company.
