Complaint to the Central Bank of Brazil
Many users of banking services do not know, but when they have some kind of problem with a bank and the bank does not resolve it 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 Banks, the Central Bank supervises and controls banking institutions, aiming to prevent abuses and other arbitrary acts that may be committed by the country's financial agents.
Therefore, if you had a more serious problem with PJ Bank or any other financial institution and this problem was not resolved by the ombudsman, you can register your complaint very simply on the Central Bank website.
Once the complaint has been made, the Central Bank will contact the PJ Bank to request information about the complaint made.
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 bank that was complained about takes to respond.
If your complaint is fair, the Bank 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 the Bank on hand. Have this number on hand as 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 bank. At this point, be as detailed as possible, providing 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.

Taking Legal Action Against a Bank: Is It Worth It?
Many people wonder whether it is worth taking legal action against a bank. 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 banking institution.
We know that most of the problems involving customers and banks are issues that are easier to resolve through a complaint to the bank'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 Bank.
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 details of the Bank 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 bank, it is up to you to decide whether or not this is viable, whether it is the best solution or not.
