Complaint narrative:
Out of my XXXX student loans, XXXX are XXXX. First, when I applied for student loans at XXXX, they told me that the ffelp loan was the only federal loans Available for me when in reality there were direct student loans from the government that I find out about XXXX years later. 
XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX took advantage of me. Have me misleading information. Steered me into options which were not in my best interest. 
Finally they did not honor terms like Covering the interest on federal subsidized loan when I was a XXXX XXXX XXXX. Ive never had a late payment of my loan in my entire life. 


They manipulate me onto the loan. 

Second, over there years Ive tried to get the loans consolidated under the government program but they told me the only consolidation loans I qualified for were not eligible for the government loan forgiveness after 25 years of payments. In reality that was a lie. 

Third, they told me my only options when I was unemployed and still enrolled in college seeking my degree full time, was to defer my loans. It was many years before I found out about the {$0.00} payment. Thus I should be 14 years into a payment plan that would have been forgiven in 10 years. My loans could have been forgiven but because they steered me into putting my loans into forbearance instead of what was in my best interest XXXX, the XXXX entities did not properly counsel me when. Is was a naive teenager. Now I owe {$85.00} XXXX in debt when my original loans were approximately {$35.00} XXXX. 

XXXX, XXXX out of my XXXX loans serviced by navient were incorrectly reported as XXXX days late and XXXX mo th unpaid for XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, XX/XX/2021 when they In a forbearance due to COVID. Plus I had already applied to Renew my income based repayment plan.they confirmed over the phone all of my account Would be in forbearance until my repayment plan was reviewed and renewed. 

I found out about this by a sudden drop of my XXXX XXXX for XXXX to XXXX. 

After many attempts to solve this with XXXX and XXXX disputes with the credit bureaus, Ive managed to get some of the incorrect data off, but XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX still show incorrect. XXXX now shows current but on all three credit reports, they refuse to take the note of 120 - 150 days late. It doesnt make sense logically, How can it be be 120 - 150 days late if they are reporting only 3 months behind. 

Honestly I think they need to forgive at least these XXXX loans because if XXXX were honest, I would have qualified for them to be forgiven by now. They definitely need to report XXXX, XXXX, XXXX correct and no days late. I was tripple covered by the automatic Covid forbearance. I had requested a covid forbearance first. Then later, but before XX/XX/2021, I called XXXX to asked to renew my repayment plans and they gave me a verbal forbearance while my application was reviewed and awaiting renewal.

Company response to consumer: Closed with explanation
