What do CFPB complaints reveal about DataMax Corporation?
DataMax Corporation has accumulated 216 total CFPB complaints across 23 states, with 4 filed in the most recent 12 months against 212 historical complaints before that window. The trailing-12-month volume represents 1.9% of the full complaint history, a falling pattern that implies either tighter collection practices, portfolio sell-offs, or improved dispute handling.
The dominant consumer grievance logged with the CFPB is "Written notification about debt", narrowing to "Didn't receive enough information to verify debt", which aligns with FDCPA-regulated conduct and signals the operational area most likely to trigger regulator scrutiny. The company posts a 84% timely-response rate against a 39% 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 23 states, led by North Carolina with 140 and Florida with 17, which matches a multi-state collection footprint rather than a regional operation. Normalized against the full CFPB collector database, the reputation score of 48.4/100 places DataMax Corporation in grade band F, a tier reached by blending complaint volume, response timeliness, dispute rates, and issue severity into a single comparable metric.
