Consumers in 34 states and territories have filed reports, putting this collection operation in multi-state territory by complaint volume. Consumers most frequently describe "Payday loan" as the debt type behind their complaint about this collector. The specific issue named most is "Took or threatened to take negative or legal action," a reasonable starting point for understanding recurring friction with this collector.

39.8% of CFPB-forwarded complaints against this company get a reply inside the Bureau's 15-day window. That is far under the 95% benchmark, a material red flag since late or missing responses are strongly linked to CFPB supervisory action against collectors. Of resolved cases, 0% closed with monetary or non-monetary relief to the consumer, which is a notably low relief ratio and worth weighing against the disputed-response percentage. The response was formally disputed in 9.3% of resolved cases, indicating how frequently the initial fix fell short.

How to read these numbers, and what to do if you're disputing a charge

Complaint volume alone does not prove wrongdoing, larger collection portfolios naturally produce more complaints, but the combination of timely-response rate, relief ratio, and dispute rate above gives a reasonable empirical picture of how this collector handles consumer interactions. Anyone in active dispute with this company should keep written records, use certified mail for verification requests (see your FDCPA rights above), and consider filing a CFPB complaint if standard resolution channels stall.
