Questions and answers

How many complaints has the CFPB received about PDQ Services, Inc.?

13 in the 12 months to 1 Oct 2026 (31 in the 12 months before that) and 275 since 2014. 1 arrived in the last 30 days and 2 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?

PDQ Services, Inc. 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?

78.2% of complaints on file are filed under “Debt collection”. The issues selected most often were “Attempts to collect debt not owed” (32.4%), “Written notification about debt” (15.6%), “Incorrect information on your report” (13.5%). These are the categories the consumer picks on the CFPB form; the text of complaints is not used on this site.

How does PDQ Services, Inc. respond to complaints?

85.8% were closed with an explanation, 10.2% with non-monetary relief and 0% with monetary relief; 56.7% of responses were timely (peer median 100%).

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 1 Oct 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.
