Got Results The CFPB Did Not
I want to publicly express my appreciation to the NYS Department Of Financial Services for their help with Banco Popular (a.k.a. Popular Bank). Banco Popular had already thumbed their noses at a complaint filed with the federal CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau), but the complaint I filed with the NYSDFS got results - the Banco suddenly had a change of heart!
The reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is because the NYSDFS didn't confirm with me that the problem was resolved; they just closed the case after hearing the bank's response. It's better to "close the loop" and confirm with the original complainant that the problem was actually resolved.
