Complaints against out-of-state companies

A lot of consumers believe that if you have a dispute with a company from outside Missouri, you have to file a consumer complaint with the Attorney General of that state.

Not true. If you or the company is in Missouri, you can file a complaint with us.

Some recent examples:

  • AG Nixon shut down four out-of-state companies selling consumer cell phone records without consumer permission.
  • The AG got a massive fine against TracFone wireless for making telemarketing calls to people on the No Call list.
  • We sent cease & desist orders out against two dozen companies that send fraudulent mailings to seniors in Missouri - all the companies are out of state.

As with all our cases, these were driven by consumer complaints. Here's the consumer complaint form. And here's the No Call complaint form.
