Raw complaint volume, not a rate: larger institutions naturally draw more CFPB complaints because they serve more customers, and a complaint is a consumer-filed record, not a proven finding of wrongdoing.

What the CFPB Complaint Record Shows for Plastiq Inc.

Plastiq Inc. carries 40 complaints in the CFPB's database, 7 of them filed within the past 12 months. Consumers spanning 17 states and territories have weighed in, giving this a multi-regional footprint. No product draws more complaints than "Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service," which sits at the top of the product breakdown. Inside that category, "Other transaction problem" comes up most often - worth a look for anyone trying to spot the company's recurring pain point.

Plastiq Inc.'s timely response rate stands at 85%, meaning that share of CFPB-forwarded complaints received a company reply within the 15-day window the Bureau expects. That falls short of the 95% benchmark, a gap that tends to track with more disputes downstream. Resolved complaints closed with monetary or non-monetary relief for the consumer at a 20% rate.

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.

Educational data summary, not financial or legal advice. Individual complaint outcomes vary. Consumers should consult a qualified attorney or financial advisor for guidance on a specific dispute.
