Missouri’s top consumer complaints in 2025 highlight the wide range of issues facing residents, according to Catherine Hanaway, Missouri’s Attorney General. Her office received more than 104,000 consumer complaints and inquiries during the year, with illegal telemarketing calls topping the list for the fifth year in a row, generating more than 33,600 complaints through the state’s No-Call Unit. Other leading concerns included automotive issues such as delayed vehicle titles and repair disputes, financial complaints involving debt collectors and banks, online retail problems like undelivered purchases, and contractor disputes in real estate and construction. The Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Section also reported significant accomplishments in 2025, securing over $61 million in judgments and settlements for the state and recovering nearly $15 million in restitution for Missouri consumers, while mediating thousands of disputes and pursuing legal action against fraudulent businesses to protect Missourians in the marketplace.
