Non-federal student loan Dealing with my lender or servicer Don't agree with fees charged Ohio

This is my 2nd complaint to be filed by me for the Peaks Loan. My first was for the fact that I did n't know who the heck they were or what they were since I signed an agreement with - - to service my temporary school credit. After establishing that peaks was the new servicer and paying 3 years of $220.00 payments my balance never went down. I have tried to secure a means of refinance but due to Peaks over zealous reporting habits, my credit score took a huge hit. I was no longer able to refinance the loan and could not get anyone to loan me the $9000.00 dollars they said I still owed after 4 years. My famly has since fallen apart and have been going through a really tough divorce that has lasted a year now. During that time I was no longer able to pay on the loan due to high childsupport payments and attorney 's fees. The company was contacted and told the situation but was not willing to help. A few months later during their investigation period with the SEC, they contacted me and tried to inform me about refinance options which were even at a higher rate eventually than the existing rate. I declined and asked for forbearance and in the past that was usually handled over the phone, well this time I was told that I would receive an email with the form to apply for forbearance, that I would have to fill out on my own. That email never came and now I get a letter from them in - - that my Peaks Loan is now in Default. Outraged, I have chosen to not return the single call, from the company, to me since that letter. My credit report shows that the Peaks loan was started -/-/-. I had never heard of Peaks until after graduation in -/-/-.
