Note: Black italics indicate what the consumer hears.
Consumer calls CFPB.
Consumer hears:
Thank you for calling the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). The CFPB is a
U.S. Government agency created after the 2008 financial crisis that makes sure banks,
lenders, and other financial companies treat you fairly. You have the right to be heard
when you have a problem with a financial product or service. You can submit a
complaint to us and we’ll work to make sure you get a response from the company.
We can also give you information on financial products and services to help you better
understand your options. For English, press 1, (and other language options).
Consumer selects language option, and then hears:
Before we connect you to one of our Consumer Guides, please have your complaint
number ready, along with any documents related to your complaint.
It is important to know that we can’t give you legal or financial advice.
Press # when you are ready to be connected to an agent.
Please hold while your call is being transferred.
This call will be monitored or recorded for quality assurance.
We’re always working to improve our service and could use your help. Please stay on
the line after the agent’s assistance for a 3 minute survey about your call today.
This survey has been approved under the Paperwork Reduction act of 1995 by the
Federal Government’s Office of Management and Budget and assigned OMB control
number 3170-0024. Without this OMB control number we could not conduct this
survey. The survey is voluntary and will only take 3 minutes. Your participation in the
survey has no impact on your complaint.
Press # if you are able to participate.
The call proceeds with the caller’s inquiry/complaint/Tell Your Story. After the Consumer
Guide thanks the consumer and concludes the call, caller hears:
Thank you for participating in this short optional survey about your call today to the
Bureau. Your feedback is important to us.
