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.
