Company: AES/PHEAA
State: MI
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:
In XXXX I applied for incarceration deferments for both my Fedloan Servicing and XXXX student loans. I sent the documents out along with a prison caseworker on the same day. A few weeks later I received confirmation for deferments on both accounts. The next year I was released in XXXX. I was sent to a halfway-house 5 hours away from home. I was only allowed to use the internet once a week at the start of my stay. My first time checking my personal email showed an email from Fedloan saying I was in danger of default. I called the following Monday after seeing this email ( around XX/XX/XXXX ) give or take a week. I spoke to an account rep who told me I would be defaulting that Friday if I did not take care of my late payments. I asked why the account was not in deferment and he told me there was no record of applying for a deferment, but he did say there was a record of my Mother calling to request the paperwork be sent to me in the prison. Which did happen, but I also filled it out, sent it in ( in the presence of a federal employee ), and got a return letter of confirmation. My XXXX loan had no problem with the deferment paperwork through my local college. I said fine, I will call back Wednesday when I could go get a bank card from the halfway house and pay what I need. I got the debit card from a bank just down the street and called Fedloan back. When I spoke to the next rep they told me that the loan had defaulted the day after I called, Tuesday. I told the rep that the previous one had told me I had until Friday and his response was, '' well I dont know why he would lie to you. '' And they defaulted my loan and went about their day. I have tried contacting my State DA 's office, the CFPB, countless lawyers, anything resource I can find, The fees keep racking up and I get no answers and no help for going on 4 years now ... They take my taxes and rack up the fees. Fedloan employees committed fraud and no one will listen. I told myself I am going to give this one last shot and found this site. Please help.
