New York City requires this license of any business whose principal purpose is collecting personal or household debts from NYC residents, wherever the business itself is based.

Does FirstCredit have complaints on record?

The public CFPB Consumer Complaint Database records 44 debt-collection complaints referencing FirstCredit, as of September 30, 2026. This counts debt-collection complaints only, all years, not every complaint the Bureau holds about the company; the profile links the same search on the live CFPB database; a complaint is a record, not a verdict, and the CFPB says its database is not a statistical sample of consumers’ experiences.

This profile presents factual information drawn from public records, the company's own website and, where a row names one, a business directory, each linked to its source where one is on record, with a last-checked date wherever a check has run. It is not a recommendation to do business with this company, is not legal advice, and is no substitute for your own due diligence.
