What do CFPB complaints reveal about Regional Management Corporation?

Regional Management Corporation has accumulated 584 total CFPB complaints across 32 states, with 168 filed in the most recent 12 months against 416 historical complaints before that window. The trailing-12-month volume represents 28.8% 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 98% timely-response rate against a 12% 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 32 states, led by Texas with 186 and South Carolina with 90, which matches a multi-state collection footprint rather than a regional operation. Normalized against the full CFPB collector database, the reputation score of 58.0/100 places Regional Management Corporation in grade band D, a tier reached by blending complaint volume, response timeliness, dispute rates, and issue severity into a single comparable metric.
