Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Navient Solutions, LLC.
State: ID

Complaint narrative:
I contacted Navient loan servicer that I am in full attendance with school and they continue to charge me a monthly fee for my student loans despite their knowledge that I am in school for a full attendance as shown below. This is ridiculous. I emailed them and they sent me an automated message in return.

The information below details the various deferment and forbearance options that may be available.
What is deferment?
Deferment allows you to postpone payments while you are in school, during an internship, a fellowship or some other qualified deferment program. Unemployment Deferments are also available in the event you are unemployed but actively seeking employment. The federal government pays the accrued interest on subsidized loans. However, you are responsible for the accrued interest on the unsubsidized loans. Unpaid interest will capitalize ( be added to your loan principal balance ) at the end of the deferment period unless you choose to make interest payments during deferment.
What is forbearance?
Forbearance allows you to postpone payments if you are experiencing temporary financial hardship and are not eligible for a deferment. During forbearance, you are responsible for all accrued interest. Per federal regulations, unpaid interest may be capitalized ( added to your loan principal balance ) no more frequently than quarterly and at the end of the forbearance. Please note : You will lose eligibility to receive any borrower incentive or benefit requiring on-time payments if you elect to have a voluntary forbearance processed on your account.
NOTE : Interest begins to accrue on education loans from the date they are first disbursed until the date they are paid in full. The federal government pays the interest that accrues on Federal Subsidized Stafford Loans during school, grace and deferment periods. You are responsible for paying the accrued interest on the Federal Unsubsidized Stafford Loans, Federal Parent PLUS Loans, and Supplemental Loans during school, grace and deferment periods and on all loans during forbearance and repayment periods. Any unpaid accrued interest will capitalize ( be added to the principal balance ) at the end of a grace and deferment period, quarterly, and at the end of a forbearance period.
