Credit Associates of Maui, LTD's timely response rate stands at 61.9%, meaning that share of CFPB-forwarded complaints received a company reply within the 15-day window the Bureau expects.

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.
