CFPB consumer complaint database becomes searchable on state-by-state basis and adds new info about money transfers and credit reporting

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau head Richard Cordray announced today that the agency has enhanced its Consumer Complaint Database to include state-by-state information. The CFPB also
added complaints about money transfers and credit reporting to the
database. “This
data puts valuable information in the hands of consumers to help them
understand what is happening in their states,” said Cordray said in a press release. “And by adding credit reporting and money transfer
complaints to the Consumer Complaint Database, we are making these
important markets more transparent and accountable to all consumers.”
