Questions and answers
How many complaints has the CFPB received about CreditNinja Lending, LLC?
144 in the 12 months to 30 Sep 2026 (67 in the 12 months before that) and 304 since 2018. 15 arrived in the last 30 days and 30 in the last 90 days; the most recent weeks are incomplete because a complaint is published only once the company responds or after 15 days.
How does that compare for its size?
CreditNinja Lending, LLC could not be matched by name to a single institution in the FDIC, NCUA or HMDA files, so its complaint count cannot be set against its size here. A company with more customers can be expected to receive more complaints than one with fewer. The CFPB's own caution: “When looking at complaint volume about a company or product, consider company size and/or market share. For example, companies with more customers may have more complaints than companies with fewer customers.”
What are people complaining about?
59% of complaints in the last 12 months are filed under “Payday loan, title loan, personal loan, or advance loan”. The issues selected most often were “Charged fees or interest you didn't expect” (22.9%), “Attempts to collect debt not owed” (13.9%), “Struggling to pay your loan” (9.7%). These are the categories the consumer picks on the CFPB form; the text of complaints is not used on this site.

96.5% were closed with an explanation, 1.4% with non-monetary relief and 2.1% with monetary relief; 100% of responses were timely (peer median 97.4%).
Does the CFPB verify complaints?
The CFPB does not verify every allegation in a complaint before publishing it. The Bureau publishes a complaint after the company responds, confirming a commercial relationship with the consumer, or after 15 days, whichever comes first. A complaint on file is not a finding that the company did anything wrong.
Where do these figures come from?
From the CFPB Consumer Complaint Database bulk file, counted through 30 Sep 2026, using only the coded fields (company, product, issue, state, dates, company response). Company size comes from FDIC, NCUA or HMDA public files where the company appears in one. Company names are shown as the CFPB publishes them.
