Product: Student loan

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer
Sub-issue: Problem with customer service

Complaint:
I submitted multiple requests via phone and email about an issue regarding reapplying for income based repayment plans. I spoke with someone over the phone who couldn't solve my problem so I requested he tell his manager I wanted someone who can help me to contact me directly. To be safe I also emailed XXXX XXXX twice and have the emails stating they received my email requests. I did not hear back and so decided to complain to XXXX. After not getting any response back on that it was clear that XXXX XXXX   doesn't care about their loan holders in the least bit and contact with them is impossible. Finally after having to complain to XXXX, I got a letter stating to expect a letter regarding my issue as well as a contact person who would be able to help. Its awful that I had to complain to XXXX to get even a poor response. 

The letter they sent was full of blatant lies and did not address my concerns. I also was not given a name of a person in the letter and there was no contact information of who I could respond to. There is no way for me to respond!!!! 

I complained to Federal Student Aid who emailed me tonight stating my case was closed to and to expect their actual response in the mail in 10 days. I have since filed another complaint since they are ignoring my complaints and not responding in an appropriate or efficient manner. 

XXXX XXXX is impossible to get responses from despite repeated requests for direct contact. They never respond and their only responses have been now and in the past blatant lies without any accountability for their inept service. 

I feel as though my financial future is not in safe hands and is in danger. I would like to request my loan servicer be changed to one of my choosing. If this can't be done I would request that legal action be taken against XXXX XXXX for documented lies in their responses and blatantly ignoring my repeated requests for help.
