What do CFPB complaints reveal about Agency of Credit Control?

Agency of Credit Control has accumulated 69 total CFPB complaints across 14 states, with 7 filed in the most recent 12 months against 62 historical complaints before that window. The trailing-12-month volume represents 10.1% of the full complaint history, a rising pattern that suggests escalating consumer friction rather than a legacy book of disputes.

The dominant consumer grievance logged with the CFPB is "Attempts to collect debt not owed", narrowing to "Debt is not yours", which aligns with FDCPA-regulated conduct and signals the operational area most likely to trigger regulator scrutiny. The company posts a 96% timely-response rate against a 33% consumer-dispute-after-response rate, a pairing that calibrates how well its complaint-resolution workflow holds up once a consumer pushes back.

Complaints have been recorded across 14 states, led by Colorado with 41 and California with 5, which matches a multi-state collection footprint rather than a regional operation. Normalized against the full CFPB collector database, the reputation score of 57.4/100 places Agency of Credit Control in grade band D, a tier reached by blending complaint volume, response timeliness, dispute rates, and issue severity into a single comparable metric.
