Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: MOHELA
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
PSLF Refund Not Issued for Payments Over 120 Request for Review To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this complaint regarding the failure to issue a refund for excess qualifying payments made toward my student loans under the Public Service Loan Forgiveness ( PSLF ) program. 

Background : I originally held federal student loans with XXXX and made a total of XXXX payments prior to consolidating the loans and transferring to MOHELA in XX/XX/year>. 
I applied for PSLF after the transfer, and my loans were subsequently forgiven through MOHELA. 
My PSLF qualifying payment count exceeded the required XXXX payments, yet I have only received a small refund of {$250.00}, with no explanation regarding the remaining XXXX payments I made while still carrying a loan balance. 

Issue : MOHELA has not provided a detailed breakdown of : Which of my XXXX payments were counted as qualifying toward PSLF ; Which payments were eligible for refund under PSLF or IDR adjustment ; Why payments made before my XX/XX/year> consolidation appear to be excluded from refund eligibility, despite my loan still having a balance at the time. 

I understand that under PSLF and the IDR Account Adjustment, borrowers may receive credit for payments made prior to consolidation. However, refund policies appear inconsistently applied, and I have been unable to obtain a clear explanation or formal denial from MOHELA. 

Request : I respectfully request : 1. A formal review of my payment history and refund eligibility ; 2. A clear explanation as to why payments made beyond the 120 qualifying payment threshold were not refunded ; 3. Any clarification on how pre-consolidation payments were treated under PSLF and IDR Adjustment in my specific case. 

Please let me know if further documentation is needed. I appreciate your time and assistance in resolving this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Company: Kimball, Tirey & St. John LLP

Complaint narrative:
KIMBALL TIREY & ST. JOHN LLP has repeatedly harassed me and continues to claim that i have an alleged debt with them. Ive asked several times for them to properly validate the alleged debt and they have failed to do so. The reason for my complaint above all is because of the fact that I believe that are not licensed at all to handle debt collection practices in the state of California, or any state for that matter, and are therefore also practicing illegally. 
The debt collector has no right to collect in my state.
