CFPB Fax Number — File Financial Consumer Complaints

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau accepts faxed complaints about banks, mortgage servicers, credit bureaus, debt collectors, and student loan servicers at 855-237-2392. The Bureau itself prefers online complaints filed at ConsumerFinance.gov/complaint, which it processes faster, but fax remains an option if you cannot file online. Once submitted, the CFPB forwards your complaint to the company and tracks whether it responds.
