Sallie Mae Student loan department,

Non-federal student loan Can't repay my loan Can't temporarily postpone payments Arizona

At Sallie Mae, they offer 3 month forbearance periods for struggling loan receivers that ca n't afford to pay back the debt. On - -, I called Sallie Mae to ask for a forbearance because i couldnt make the payments. My account was up to date, no past due payments. My payments are due on the - of each month. So through out - im still being harassed by sallie mae every day, waiting for the forbearance to be processed. This is a normal occurrence by the way, at least 8-10 calls a day. Its harassment and it should be illegal to bother my family and I so much. So after a few phone calls, i find out that the forbearance wasnt input correctly. So they had to restart the process again. So after that was over, i thought that this was taken care of. What I found out today is that the person I talked to in - put in a 1 month forbearance. Which I did not ask or pay for. I paid - dollars to have my loan in forbearance for 3 months. Now, im recieving harassing calls again from early in the morning to late at night. The times are outrageous. Sometimes as early as - and as late as - So now, they wont even transfer me to customer service because my account is overdue? It wouldnt be over due if they didnt input everything properly in the first place. This whole ordeal is so frustrating. No one can do anything for me at the office anymore.
