Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer

Subissue: Received bad information about my loan

Consumer Complaint: My student loans have been sold/transferred to different servicers several times. The student loan servicing industry is broken - each time the loans are sold, data and information is lost. My current servicers can not even provide me with complete and adequate data to confirm payment history, principal amount, interest rate, incentives. ( XXXX of my prior student loan servicers are now out of business due to fraud and other violations that forced them out of business - and they can not be contacted or left any records either ).

Issue: Can't repay my loan

Subissue: Can't decrease my monthly payments

Consumer Complaint: In XXXX XXXX, I was contacted by First Mark Services concerning my private loan. I XXXX from XXXX school on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. Immediately after XXXX I requested a grace period of 6 months after XXXX to begin repayment. A representative, XXXX XXXX from First Mark Services indicated that their records reflected that I used the grace period during the period of XXXX XXXX through XXXX XXXX. However, during that time period I was enrolled in school and did not use that grace period for repayment as I was a XXXX student and not required to make payments on the loan during that time. At the time, I submitted the form to nelnet loan company it was accepted by the customer service in XXXX. I submitted the same form that during that time I was enrolled as a XXXX student in school ( XXXX in XXXX ). Upon submitted the form I found that without further evaluation or confirming my enrollment they denied my request via the indicated form. Desiring to resolve this matter I then requested to reduce my payment amount to {$50.00} a month since I am currently unemployed and preparing for resident matching this summer, XXXX. After several email exchanges with XXXX XXXX, it was concluded that I could make $ 50 monthly payments until I became employed and was able to make the full monthly payment amountIn my email I stated that I will be able to make {$50.00} now then 2 weeks later I will be able to make a payment of {$100.00}, then afterward I will make auto pay of {$50.00} a month. I made my XXXX payment of {$50.00} then he contacted me and indicated that I will need to start making full payments and denying that he agreed to reduce my payment to $ 50 monthly. I felt I was really misinformed and misguided by the company. At the same time, I felt I was robbed of my grace period. I am trying hard to work things out with the company while the company is not even doing the minimum to help me. They are not even meeting the minimum requirements as indicated by law to completely inform me. They are using short answers that have misguided me.

Issue: Dealing with my lender or servicer

Subissue: Received bad information about my loan

Consumer Complaint: Hi - I got a student loan from Nelnet to attend XXXX. As I was an XXXX XXXX, XXXX set up a XXXX in order to secure the loan. In spite of this, I always received the form XXXX XXXX so that I can file this in my annual tax returns. Recently XXXX took over my XXXX, and without really informing me of anything, are now saying that since they do n't have my original SSN on record, they will not give me my XXXX XXXX form ( even with the XXXX SSN ). I immediately sent them a scanned copy of my SSN, but they now say it 's too late. Since I was never informed of this change, and only now am told it 's too late, I am filing a complaint as I stand to lose XXXX hundred dollars in this arbitrary process change.
