Wells Fargo Student Loan Complaint

Non-federal student loan Dealing with my lender or servicer

Wells Fargo Student loan department,

Non-federal student loan Dealing with my lender or servicer California

I 'm writing to complain about what I think are excessive Late Fee charges over time. After deferring payments on this private loan for the maximum time, a year, because I was n't earning enough income to make my payments, I had to start making payments. I was fortunate enough to get a - job so I could do that but my payments were still often late over a period of - years, so I was charged many late payment fees. Those fees have totaled over $350.00 so far and I think those are QUITE UNFAIR AND E-CESSIVE, especially considering my interest rate on this private student loan is over 12 %. Congress needs to write laws regarding the maximum late fees allowed yearly on private student loans. Having these private loans has certainly discouraged me from getting more education, something that would certainly benefit me in the job market. So my question is, is that what excessive LATE FEES and ridiculously high student loan INTEREST RATES are supposed to do? Are they supposed to DISCOURAGE people from pursuing graduate degrees? Is that what Congress thinks will be BEST for the economy, or do n't they think in those terms?
