What the CFPB Complaint Record Shows for Professional Collection Service, Inc
Professional Collection Service, Inc draws a geographically concentrated spread of CFPB complaints, filed by consumers in many parts of the country. No product draws more complaints than "Debt collection," which sits at the top of the product breakdown. Inside that category, "Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed" comes up most often - worth a look for anyone trying to spot the company's recurring pain point.
The timely-response measure counts forwarded complaints answered inside the Bureau's 15-day window. This company's rate is far under the 95% benchmark, a material red flag, since late or missing responses are among the strongest predictors of CFPB supervisory interest. 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.
