The Intake Form is designed to aid
consumers in the submission of complaints, inquiries, and feedback
and to help the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) fulfill
its statutory requirements. Consumers (also referred to as
“respondents”) will be able to complete and submit information
through the Intake Form electronically on the CFPB's website.
Alternatively, respondents may request that the CFPB mail a paper
copy of the Intake Form, and then mail or fax it back to the CFPB;
or call to submit a complaint by telephone. The questions within
the Intake Form prompt respondents for a description of, and key
facts about, the complaint at issue, the desired resolution,
contact and account information, information about the company they
are submitting a complaint about, and previous action taken to
attempt to resolve the complaint.
