Complaint to the Central Bank of Brazil
Many users of financial services do not know, but when they have some kind of problem with a financial institution and it is not resolved through its ombudsman, a very practical and viable alternative is to make a complaint to the Central Bank.
The Central Bank of Brazil is a highly regarded institution and, among other responsibilities, it is responsible for regulating and supervising the national financial system. The institution also currently works to ensure the stability of the purchasing power of money.
In the specific case of Financial Institutions, the Central Bank supervises and controls the institutions, aiming to prevent abuses and other arbitrary acts that may be committed by the country's financial agents.
Portanto, se você teve um problema mais grave com a Geru ou qualquer outra instituição financeira e este problema não foi resolvido pela ouvidoria, você pode cadastrar a sua manifestação de forma bem simples no site do Banco Central.
Uma vez realizada a reclamação, o Banco Central vai entrar em contato direto com a Geru para solicitar informações sobre a reclamação efetuada.
In normal situations, the Central Bank takes around 8 to 10 business days to respond to the citizen. However, this period depends largely on how long the financial institution that was complained about takes to respond.
If your complaint is fair, the financial institution will usually reverse its procedure or in some way seek to correct the error made, notifying the Central Bank about this occurrence.
Logically, if your complaint to the Central Bank is unfounded, no action will be taken, as the Central Bank will analyze your case and forward it to the institution, acting in this case as a mediator of the problem.
As previously mentioned, it is very simple to file a complaint with the Central Bank. The entire procedure is carried out online, and it is important that you register an email address to receive notifications each time the process is processed.
Another very important point to remember is the need to have the complaint receipt protocol at hand. Have this number at hand because you will need it when making your claims.
It is also important to clarify that the Central Bank will ask you to write a text explaining exactly what happened between you and the financial institution. At this point, be as detailed as possible, informing the date, time, name of the attendant, what was said, protocol number, etc. Don't leave anything out!
Step by step: making a complaint on the Central Bank website
To initiate the complaint procedure at the Central Bank, you can click here.
As you can see in the image below, you must enter your CPF number and select Complaint against Financial System Institutions.
Solve the Captha and the screen will open for you to fill in the necessary data:
- Choose the name of the Institution
- Select Subject
- Enter your message, stating the complaint you want to make
- Enter the Financial Institution's protocol number
From there, the Central Bank will ask for your email and telephone number, generating the service protocol after that.
With the complaint protocol in hand, as stated above, you just need to wait for the bank's response regarding your complaint.
Questions and Answers about Complaints at the Central Bank

Multiple banks are supervised by the Central Bank, commercial banks, cooperative banks, investment banks, development banks, exchange banks, savings banks, credit unions, credit, financing and investment companies, real estate credit companies, leasing companies, exchange brokerage companies, securities brokerage companies, securities distribution companies, development agencies, mortgage companies, credit companies for microentrepreneurs and small businesses, payment institutions and consortium administrators.
2- Can I file a complaint against an Institution authorized to operate by the Central Bank?
Yes, complaints may be filed by customers and users of products and services from financial institutions and other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank, such as credit unions, payment institutions and consortium administrators, whenever there is evidence of non-compliance with legal and regulatory provisions whose supervision is the responsibility of this Agency.
3- Does a complaint to the Central Bank have the same effects as a lawsuit?

4- Does the Central Bank regulate the waiting time in bank queues?

The Central Bank does not determine the amount of fees. However, there are some services that banks must provide free of charge. Subject to the prohibitions, each institution is free to establish the amount of its fees.
Taking Legal Action Against a Financial Institution: Is It Worth It?
Many people wonder whether it is worth taking legal action against a financial institution. Is it feasible? Is it worth it? To answer this question, first of all, you need to know the extent of your problem with the institution.
We know that most of the problems involving customers and financial institutions are issues that are easier to resolve through a complaint to the financial institution's own ombudsman or even by making a statement to the Central Bank.
However, when the situation is more complicated and involves larger amounts, the customer may consider filing a lawsuit against the financial institution, knowing that this will be a last resort, after exhausting administrative avenues for resolving the conflict.
One option for those who were unable to resolve the issue through conventional means is to file a lawsuit in Small Claims Court in your region, which is the competent body to process cases of up to 40 minimum wages. It is important to emphasize that, for cases of less than 20 minimum wages, it is not mandatory to appoint a lawyer.
Another advantage of JEFS that cannot be forgotten is the absence of legal costs for litigants, that is, you will not need to pay anything to file a lawsuit against the financial institution.
To be successful in a case before the Small Claims Court, it is important that you gather as many documents as possible, such as contracts, bank statements, emails, collection letters, proof of payment, etc.
Another fundamental thing in this type of process is to have all the data of the financial institution against which you are going to file the lawsuit: address, telephone number, CNPJ, name of the manager, among other important information so that the justice officials can locate the financial agent.
And as previously mentioned, there is no need to hire a lawyer, although if you have the means, this is highly recommended, considering that in more complex cases the assistance of a specialist will be essential for you to be successful in the dispute.
Therefore, now that you know all the details about how to file a lawsuit against a financial institution, it is up to you to decide whether or not this is viable, whether it is the best solution or not.
