Student Loan Help

Anonymous — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 06:05:55 GMT

I graduated from school in November of last year and was doing well on payments and then my hours got cut back to about 30-34 a week and I missed 2-3 Payments in row. I have 5 federal student loans, 4 are with the same company. I got a new more reliable job and I have been making payments on time the past few months but still having that many missed payments on my credit has hurt my score tremendously, well that and having no other credit to speak of. I was wondering if there was anything esle I could help raise my credit score.

Thanks!

All you can do is write a letter pleading your case, & ask them very kindly to remove the lates from your reports.

All the best to you! You can find a sample goodwill letter in some of the threads here. Just type: "goodwill letters" in the search box. Have you tried calling and asking to speak with a specialist? They are willing to work with you in most cases.
