Filing a Complaint as a Texas Resident
Texas's dense filing book means the CFPB channel at consumerfinance.gov/complaint is usually the fastest public-record path (15-day company reply). Parallel options: the Texas attorney general's consumer division and the state banking-and-finance regulator that may license collectors here. Open the CFPB complaint form.
