CommonBond, Inc. Student Loan Complaint

Non-federal student loan Getting a loan Minnesota

I applied for a student loan consolidation product from Common Bond. I have excellent credit and always pay my current bills on time with no trouble. I 'd like to take advantage of lower rates in the current marketplace. Common Bond 's marketing products suggested that a cosigner would help me get a better '' rate. Common Bond 's advertising materials made me feel as if I would be eligible for a good rate based on my excellent credit, good income, and good payment history. Additionally, my husband would have been happy to cosign. When I finished the application, I was told that I need a cosigner with an annual income of $80000.00 to qualify for any loan. This requirement came AFTER Common Bond pulled my credit report, and Common Bond made no previous mention of requiring a cosigner with such a high income. I feel that this is a deceptive marketing practice and it unfairly limits my access to credit. Common Bond has wasted my time and potentially damaged my credit report. I have made payments on my current student loans for three years with no problems, and feel that I should qualify, especially because student loans with lower interest will be even easier to pay.
