Consumer complaint received 2022-07-12 00:00:00
Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc.
State: MI

Complaint narrative:
According to paperwork provided by the student loan servicer, I only owed {$100000.00} as of XX/XX/2022. Despite being in the pandemic interest forbearance, the loan servicer now reports that I owe {$110000.00}, I noticed this when I checked my credit report. 

Each of my loans had a discrete amount added to it to total {$3500.00} since XX/XX/2022. This is impossible because all of my loans are subject to the interest forbearance. 

The {$100000.00} amount as of XX/XX/2022 was provided to me via paperwork obtained after a 6 month fight with the loan servicer for complete documentation of the loans. The aidvantage website says I owe {$110000.00} which is incorrect. 

I noticed this discrepancy on my credit report ( obtained via experian ) which reported {$110000.00}. The credit report is incorrect as well, and these are the only student loans associated with my account. 

This is fraud, and I have reached out to the student loan servicer and the US dept of education through FAFSA complaint. I had to call FAFSA because their online complaint system reported an error and would not process the complaint. 

I can't reach anyone on the phone at Aidvantage and their phone system will not report the balance to me through its automated system. I attempted to call numerous times on Friday, XXXX, however, they keep pushing me to their voicemail and I have not received a call back from them. 

I did receive an email that they are looking into this, but considering this is FRAUD, I wanted to report it to the CFPB due to the difficulty I had obtaining the documents originally, and how it is impossible for these loan balances to increase due to the interest forbearance. This is literal fraud, and punitive damages should be considered by the CFPB for predatory practices and Aidvantage should be investigated for any other students they have done this to. 

You can see a full description/explanation in a XXXX video posted here XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which I intend to continue advertising and circulating until this FRAUD gets the attention it deserves.
