Code : XXXX  We have tried on numerous occasions to file a complaint/dispute/grievance with this ECMC company to no avail. Their website continuously gives us an error code and their csr 's do not sent the forms. Now ... XXXX  is threatening to take my license I earned on a student loan that was paid in full and everyone agrees on this. Those student loans are not even in dispute and were for a vocational school - and are going to cost me my livelihood. 

This is just wrong and an error has occurred somewhere in this process for which we are paying with my ability to work.
