Hello,
I am in a predicament, and was hopeful to get some advice.
I currently have roughly $145,000 in student loans - both private and federal. Privately, I have around 35,000. These private loan company, will not reconsolidate, nor will they extend payments or lower them. I have requested any additional means of help, but am unable to have them work with me. The loan is through AES - the lender is PNC.
My federal loans are widely spread out, ranging from parent plus loans (which are in my father's name) and those which are in my own name. As I understand it I am unable to consolidate my loans with the parent plus loans, both of which I am responsible for.
I was told that because the loans that are in my father's name are parent plus loans they do not qualify for an IBR. I think that the loans in my name, however, do quailfy.
Between all of the loans, my total accumulates to well over $1,500 per month. I make a decent living, and got a job fairly quickly out of college making $51,000 a year. I do have the means to make some payments, and fully intend to. I simply cannot make such a large payment that, after taxes, comes to 83% of my paycheck when all of the loans are added together.
I am not sure what to do at this point.
My private student loan company has turned their portion to a thrid party collection agency as it is 30 days overdue.
Is there anyway to Good WIll if there was a FEMA disaster when I went into default
Does anyone have an email or mailing address I can send my letter to, that will get around the Office of the Customer Advocate with Sallie Mae? I get nowhere with them. I have a disagreement with them as to when I was in forbearance and when I was not.
If Sallie Mae is correct, when does jthechamp's loans stop reporting pre default. Because his dates are about 6 years before mine and my loans have started coming off and my consolidation was 2010
Recently looking at my credit report I saw that 3 Citiassist loans I have, have been charged off in 2009 when they should have been deferred with the rest of my Citiassist loans because I was in school then and still in school. I have gotten a letter from my school stating I have been a student since before the loans went into charged off status and I wanted to know is it worth is to mail this letter to Citi even though it is listed as charged off? What recourse do I have? Like I said they never contacted me, no collection notices or nothing. The only reason I noticed it because I clicked into all my individual loans and saw that the three were charged off as bad debt.
