What do CFPB complaints reveal about HF Holdings?

HF Holdings has accumulated 63 total CFPB complaints across 24 states, with 27 filed in the most recent 12 months against 36 historical complaints before that window. The trailing-12-month volume represents 42.9% 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 95% timely-response rate, a pairing that calibrates how well its complaint-resolution workflow holds up once a consumer pushes back.

Complaints have been recorded across 24 states, led by Florida with 9 and New York with 6, which matches a multi-state collection footprint rather than a regional operation. Normalized against the full CFPB collector database, the reputation score of 53.5/100 places HF Holdings in grade band D, a tier reached by blending complaint volume, response timeliness, dispute rates, and issue severity into a single comparable metric.
