Consumer complaint received 2023-09-06
Company: EdFinancial Services
State: OH
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:
XXXX was my servicer. In XXXX, I was out of law school with no job. I was receiving calls about making payments that I could not afford. 

I told them that I had no job, no income, and I was living off very limited savings. Instead of screening me for income based repayment, which would have dropped my monthly payments to nothing, they put me on forebearance. 

This continued for a number of years, including when I finally got a job of $ XXXX. 

Because the forebearance forms needed to be submitted more frequently than income based payment verification forms, when I was moving, I missed one of the forebearance forms.

This resulted in me ending up in default. 

I was finally able to get out of default in XXXX, but my interest was capitalized, and my student loan balance became much, much larger than it was before. 

Had I been given income based repayment instead of forebearance, I would not have had my interest capitalized. 

I never would have defaulted. 

I would be XXXX more years into repayment than I am today. 

This is still dragging on me a decade later. Despite making payments under IBR, because my interest was capitalized, I'm making interest-only payments. I've never been able to touch the principal of my loan. If this continues, I will never pay off my loan during my entire life. 

Despite paying $ XXXX in interest, my loan balance ~ {$70000.00} larger than it was the day I graduated, because of the capitalized interest.
