How to submit a complaint with Sofi
With Sofi, complaints move better when the route is right, the issue is named early, and the remedy request is concrete.
- Start in the right place: Use the complaints email for Sofi so the complaint lands with a team that can actually review it.
- Anchor the facts: Include account details, transaction references, statements, screenshots, and prior emails and explain what went wrong with the account, payment, fee, dispute, or lending issue.
- Name the complaint theme: Say if the issue is about account issues, billing or fee disputes, and app problems so it is routed properly.
- Ask for a concrete outcome: Spell out whether you want a reversal, correction, refund, account fix, or a clear written explanation.

After Sofi receives a complaint tied to account issues, billing or fee disputes, and app problems, expect a basic review first and a substantive response later.
- Acknowledgement: You should get a case number, email, or some written sign that Sofi has logged the complaint.
- Review: The business will usually look at account details, transaction references, statements, screenshots, and prior emails and the part of the service tied to the complaint.
- Response: A useful answer should explain what Sofi found and whether it will offer a reversal, correction, refund, account fix, or a clear written explanation.
- Push-back if needed: If the reply is vague or misses the key point, answer on the same thread and restate the unresolved issue in plain language.
