Full Show: Clark’s Take on the CFPB and #1 Retailer for Customer Service (It’s Not Costco!) | Clark Howard Video
Clark has long been an advocate for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). But the future of the organization is uncertain. Is it still possible to file a complaint? What happens with the complaints that are submitted? Clark examines the CFPB's origins, its intended purpose, and the changes we’re seeing right now. Also, Costco has long been praised for above-and-beyond customer satisfaction. But there’s a surprising new #1 retailer claiming the top spot!
Plus, Christa shares your #AskClark questions and Clark gives his take. All this and more on the March 3, 2025, episode of The Clark Howard Show.
