What the CFPB Complaint Record Shows for Second Alliance, Inc.

120 complaints against Second Alliance, Inc. appear in the CFPB record, including 92 from the trailing year. The 24 states and territories represented put this footprint in multi-regional territory. "Debt collection" tops the product-level breakdown by a clear margin, marking it as the area of greatest consumer friction. Inside that category, "Attempts to collect debt not owed" comes up most often - worth a look for anyone trying to spot the company's recurring pain point.

Second Alliance, Inc.'s timely response rate stands at 98.3%, meaning that share of CFPB-forwarded complaints received a company reply within the 15-day window the Bureau expects. That is at or above benchmark levels, a sign the company handles intake and escalation well. In 12.5% of resolved cases, the consumer formally disputed the company's response - a rough measure of how often the first resolution missed the mark. 1.7% of resolved complaints ended with some monetary or non-monetary relief for the consumer.

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 (which hints at regional servicing issues or regulatory exposure), and the ratio of monetary-relief closures to closed-without-relief outcomes. Taken together, these fields give consumers a reasonable empirical basis for deciding whether to escalate a dispute, and give researchers a starting point for investigating institutional patterns.
