MADISON, WI (WTAQ-METRO) – The most common consumer complaints made to the State of Wisconsin were about landlord and tenant disputes for the second year in a row.
The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection says it got ten-thousand complaints in 2023 and released the top ten most common today. More than two-thousand-200 complaints were about rental issues, including landlords entering a property without notice, and eviction disputes.
The second most popular complaint was about telemarketing.
The department also points out the commonality of misleading advertisements for car accessories, and installation of parts that don’t work.
For those complaints, DATCP says it’s given three-point-three-million-dollars back to consumers and general school funds.
