Federal student loan servicing Dealing with my lender or servicer Trouble with how payments are handled Texas
I have been paying more that my actual monthly payment to Nelnet for years as I was trying to see if I could pay my student loan in 10 years. I would call and they would tell me that it would be applied to principal. Since I have it set up automatically I just call in to make sure that my over payments are applied and they always would tell me that yes they are being applied and that I was making inroads to paying off my student loan debt. After looking at my statements and seeing that I am now paid up until - of next year I decided to call again to make sure that my payments were applied to principal and the CSR that I talked to said that they could n't so I asked to talk to a manager or supervisor. Again a supervisor by the name of - ID - told me that I was making inroads as he that I was way ahead with my over payment but that he could not apply my over payments to principal. So then, I asked him I have already been paying for 10 years on my 20 year note and can you tell me how much longer I have to zero out my student loan debt? And he told me that I had 10 years left. And that is not right as I along with a whole bunch of consumers out there are being had. They need to put a stop to this kind of preying on innocent consumer that think nothing wrong of them until we look at our lenders more closely. Please assist me in making a wrong right as we have way too many scrupulous business out there. And we certainly do n't need this additional burden on students that are coming out of colleges and universities and are already carrying a big load of student loan debt.
