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 Williston Financial Group

The CFPB Consumer Complaint Database has logged 18 complaints against Williston Financial Group overall, with 2 of those filed in the trailing 12 months. Reports have come from consumers in 8 states and territories, making this a geographically concentrated complaint footprint. The single largest complaint category is "Mortgage," which consistently leads the product-level breakdown and signals where consumer friction is most acute. Inside that category, "Closing on a mortgage" comes up most often - worth a look for anyone trying to spot the company's recurring pain point.

Within the Bureau's 15-day response window, Williston Financial Group posts a 83.3% reply rate on forwarded complaints. That sits below the 95% industry benchmark and tends to correlate with higher consumer dispute rates downstream. Consumers formally disputed the company's response at a 40% rate among resolved cases, a signal of how often the initial resolution failed to satisfy the complainant. Among resolved complaints, the consumer-relief closure rate is 22.2%.

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.
