Rising year-over-year volume
Mississippi in the higher-rate third
Consumers in Mississippi have filed 199,038 CFPB complaints (6770.7 per 100,000 residents) - a higher-third per-capita rate among states and territories in this extract. "Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports" leads the product mix - the usual friction point when per-capita volume runs hot. Transunion Intermediate Holdings, Inc. draws the most complaints from Mississippi residents in the top-companies table above. On the per-capita ladder, nearest peers are Louisiana and Delaware.
Year-over-year, complaint volume from Mississippi rose from 29,601 in 2024 to 101,437 in 2025 - a change of +243%. 29,483 complaints have been logged for 2026 so far in this extract, a partial year that should not be compared directly to a full prior year. A swing this large on an already high-rate state can coincide with a servicing failure at a major bureau or a local enforcement wave - still check the company table before inferring a statewide crisis.
