The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau looks out for YOU and your money. Don’t let the billionaires kill it.

In an age when it's so hard to get customer service AND the government seems so disconnected from what people want and need- WHY would the CFPB try to cut down on of the federal government's most impactful consumer features?!

Done! I recently used the portal to resolve an identity theft issue that PayPal and their collection agency simply refused to address. I filed a CFPB complaint in its portal along with documentary evidence, they notified the implicated vendors, and the issue was resolved almost immediately.

These aren't cherry picked examples. The consumer complaint portal is almost like the United States' customer service hotline for their financial needs. Take it from this r/LifeProTip post:

Think these anecdotes are anomalous? Well this former bank employee says CFPB complaints were a fast track to customers getting the attention they needed:

I used to work for a Very Big Bank. CFPB complaints got their attention like nothing else. I hated dropping everything to research a complaint but they were always THAT important to the brass.

As a consumer, this disgusts and offends me. This is “fuck the poor” predatory bullshit at its finest.
And just like that, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau homepage, consumerfinance.gov, is being erased. As of January 30, 2025, CFPB enforcement actions resulted in
$19.7 billion in consumer relief.

Let's not forget why the CFPB was created: BECAUSE ALMOST 6 MILLION FAMILIES LOST THEIR HOMES TO FORECLOSURE. The CFPB helped address this person's needs w/r/t foreclosure:

BofA is a dirty word in my household. They stole my house. Had to hire a lawyer and file a complaint with CFPB to get it back. Sadly, thousands of homeowners didn't get their's back.

Sometimes the banks are being *seriously annoying* and WILL NOT help. Like when the CFPB complaint portal helped this person: bsky.app/profile/pcas...
A bank was trying to rip me off and wouldn't respond to emails, letters, phone calls etc. for months. I filed a complaint with the CFPB online and the banks got back to me in a few days. Problem solved. The work CFPB does is essential!
Last week, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) announced a historic $1.8 BILLION settlement for 4.3 million people who were charged illegal fees or defrauded by credit repair companies.

Remember this the next time a billionaire says they want to get rid of the CFPB.

Sometimes banks aren't even acting maliciously, they just make a mistake but don't have the customer service bandwidth to fix it. Like this person who the CFPB complaint helped resolve in a few days:

Liz, I've received help twice from the CFPB, once when a very untrained customer service person froze all of my accounts at Capital One & didn't have access to my money for a month til I filed an online complaint with the CFPB. Within days it was resolved & they even called to apologize. Thank you!

🚨 Well, it looks like the CFPB is trying to kill their portal that allows consumers to complain directly to the CFPB and to the companies! 🚨 Could you submit a comment before December 29th saying how helpful submitting complaints has been for your clients? www.regulations.gov/document/CFP...

Terry was scammed out of most of his savings and was supposed to get his money back—until Donald Trump and Elon Musk gut the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
