Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: IN
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Received bad information about your loan

Complaint:
I am submitting to your attention a complaint that involves alleged private student loans that Sallie Mae/Navient and XXXX XXXX  claim existed. Both SallieMae/Navient and XXXX XXXX  are claiming these alleged private loans existed and have been collecting on these loans since allegations began. XXXX now holds the alleged private loans formerly held by SallieMae/Navient XXXX I have included attachments that reflect supportive documentation that such alleged private student loans may have been fraudulently created and/or misclassified. These alleged private loans were initially classified as federal student loans and were re-classified as private loans with different ID and account numbers. 

Numerous phone calls were made to SallieMae/Navient and XXXX XXXX  with requests to justify the existence of the alleged two private student loans to no avail. XXXX XXXX attempted to justify collecting on a duplicate set of these alleged private loans. I requested specific documents from both Navient and XXXX XXXX  that would help support the allegations of private student loans/disbursement. A review of the information received did not support the allegations that there were private student loans nor actual proof of disbursement. 

Contesting repeatedly to SallieMae/Navient and XXXX XXXX  that I felt the alleged private loans were not valid loans and that these alleged loans may have been intentionally/unintentionally misclassified, I thoroughly searched my own records, made several telephone calls to the University, Department of Education, and Federal Student Aid Office seeking proof . The University confirmed there were never any private loans disbursements- only federal loans supported by information submitted and that they would have to approve any private loan requests/disbursements. There are no records of any alleged private student loans with supportive documentation in my files nor the files of those queried. SallieMae/Navient and XXXX are the only ones alleging such loans existed and information submitted is both questionable and does not support their allegations. 

The following attachments were based on information derived from the Department of Education and from SallieMae 's records.Reflected in attachment # 1 is documentation which shows similar dates/amounts of " federal student loans '' that SallieMae/Navient and XXXX XXXX  claimed were private student loans. Attachment # 2 shows federal loans, not disbursed, around timeframe reflected in their document submissions to me. Finally, from SallieMae 's records, attachments # 3 & 4 clearly reflect that the alleged private loans were originally classified as " Federal Plus Loans. ''
