Company: SLM CORPORATION
State: NM
Product: Student loan
Sub-product: Private student loan
Issue: Struggling to repay your loan
Sub-issue: Can't temporarily delay making payments

Complaint:
It all started in late XXXX. I have been learning programming since then, on and off looking either for a job or to earn income through self employment. In the meantime, my payments have been delayed as I haven't been able to pay for them. So far, most of my creditors have accommodated me. The XXXX exception however is Sallie Mae. 

I have called them XXXX times, telling them multiple times I can not consistently repay, or make payments monthly. I asked for forbearance multiple times, and like I said earlier, almost all other creditors, private or public have understood. I am trying my hardest to make an income, especially soon but I have reached a breaking point. I have called roughly I believe in XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Right now, I am supposedly over XXXX or so due, but after today, XX/XX/30, I will owe the full amount. The only reason I delayed it for this long is because I made XXXX payments both from my stimulus and tax return, in XXXX and in XXXX. 
Well, I will be unable to pay for a while. Garnish my non-existent wages for all I care, the worst financial provider in the country! I WILL PAY WHEN I CAN YOU LEECHES!

Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Attempted to collect wrong amount

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX 2023, I called Capital One at the phone number on my billing statement to make an offer to settle up my total dept. and pay it off. 
The person I spoke to at or about XXXX XXXX XXXX  was XXXX XXXX. 
He got permission from his supervisor to except my offer to settle the account for a total of {$4000.00}. He mentioned I need to get them the payment within 30 days and close the account. They explained to me the methods I could use to pay this amount to them and I agreed to the terms. 
Then days later I get a Collections letter with Capital One logo that is dated the day after I made the call and both parties greed on a settlement. The letter stated that they have sold my account to a company and transferred my account info to them. Yet the letter states that they are pursuing for a balance over nine thousand dollars. Which is more then even the stated amount that I was told I owed while on the phone with Capital One. 
Clearly Capital One is in default of our phone agreement binding to settle and is playing an illegal game. 
The letter says NOT to send Capital One future payments.
