Non-federal student loan Dealing with my lender or servicer Don't agree with fees charged Massachusetts
I took out a private loan while attending - in - PA with - - after being told I had to or go home that night, I was told it was my only option. I signed the documents not knowing or understanding the terms of the loan, i feared i was going to lose everything I had worked for up to that point. When I found out the loans were being charged over 20 % interest after I left school I tried to get them at a lower rate but no banks wanted to touch them. I finally got - - to reduce the rates to 13.5 % but it still was n't enough. I continued to struggle and for 31 months I was unemployed and my only option provided by them was forbearance. When I went back to work I continued to struggle to pay the loan. Fast forward to now and recently I spoke with a manager at the new branch of - -, Navient, name - -. He told me info for the first time that was denied to me for the entire time I was struggling with payments, my original loan amount being the $21000.00 and
$100000.00 on the original $21000.00 loan. I then told him I 'd like to settle but he said I 'd have to make a payment of whatever amount I committed before it would be accepted. I told him I 'd have to see what I could make available and after number crunching the loan amounts the payout on the loan, it would have been a total of $46000.00 by the initial rates had I been on time and rated at the 10 years I thought it was. I thought I would then offer the difference of ehat i paid and the original loan, was informed it was actually 15 years and it 's been - so I was confused why it was still so high if 6 years from now is the pay off but I 've already paid almost everything? I tried for several days to reach - - but he was unreachable, he called back once after I had left a message saying I 'd be unavailable after a certain time, coincidentally it was during that time. I decided to call the main center they have set up and was continuously told he 'd be on the line soon when a woman named - - picked up. She was n't interested in numbers nor my offer to pay the remainder of the original note citing the forbearance as the reason it once again inflated to -. I was told I could set myself up again in a program to pay it off but I ca n't continue to struggle and get no where in this loan, i need help ...
