In XX/XX/XXXX I took out a Private Student Loan with XXXX that is now being serviced by XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, XXXX ( XXXX ). After graduating and beginning to pay my student loans, my credit score dropped considerably. I viewed an in depth XXXX report recently that revealed this student loan is being reported by XXXX to the credit bureaus as a revolving line of credit instead of an installment line of credit as a student loan should be. XXXX is reporting the " current balance '' and " beginning balance '', which results in a 93 % credit utilization score on my report as if this is an open/revolving credit account that I can still draw funds from, which like all student loans I can not and have not been able to since graduating college. They are also reporting the loan terms as " revolving '' according to Experian. The $ XXXX loan balance is lumping in with my credit card balance of revolving/ '' bad debt '', raising my total utilization percentage, and lowering my overall credit score. I wrote the following complaint to XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX : " Good afternoon, I am writing in regards to my XXXX student loan. I am contacting you because this loan is being reporting incorrectly to the credit agencies as a line of credit instead of a student loan. This is damaging my credit score due to the fact that it is being reported with an open/current balance and a " credit limit '', which appears to be the original loan amount, which is resulting in a Credit Utilization rating of 93 % as if this was a credit card or a revolving credit account that I could still draw funds from, which it is not. I can see that XXXX is reporting in the comments section " Credit line no longer available - in repayment phase ''. I do not understand how XXXX can be reporting this as a line of credit if in fact XXXX is aware there is no credit line available at this time, and is in fact reporting this information, although only as a comment. I would therefore like someone in your credit department to contact me as soon as possible to rectify this, as it has been damaging my credit score for a great length of time now due to the fact that this $ XXXX student loan is being lumped in with credit/revolving debt and driving up both my total revolving debt balance and my total utilization percentage. I would prefer to correspond via email and can be reached at XXXX. If that is not possible, I can be reached by phone at XXXX. Thank you, XXXX '' I received the following reply on XX/XX/XXXX : " Dear XXXX, Thank you for contacting XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX.
