What the CFPB Complaint Record Shows for Child Support Recovery Services, Inc.
The CFPB Consumer Complaint Database shows a geographically concentrated complaint footprint for Child Support Recovery Services, Inc., with consumers across the country filing against it. The single largest complaint category is "Debt collection," which consistently leads the product-level breakdown and signals where consumer friction is most acute. Within that category, the most frequently cited specific issue is "Incorrect information on your report" - a useful starting point for anyone trying to understand what goes wrong most often in the company's consumer interactions.
Timely response is the share of CFPB-forwarded complaints that receive a company reply within the 15-day window the Bureau expects. This company's rate falls short of the 95% benchmark, a gap that tends to track with more disputes downstream. A formal dispute means the consumer contested the company's response after a case was resolved, a rough measure of how often the first resolution missed the mark. Relief means the case closed with monetary or non-monetary help for the consumer. Both rates sit in the score card above.
How to read complaint counts
Complaint counts alone do not tell the full story: larger institutions with more customers will naturally generate more complaints in absolute terms. The more informative signals are the direction of the yearly trend shown above, the state-level concentration, and the ratio of monetary-relief closures to closed-without-relief outcomes. Together, these fields provide context for reading the published CFPB record; they do not establish wrongdoing or resolve an individual dispute.
