Product: Federal student loan servicing

Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer

Consumer Consent Provided to Share Complaint: Consent provided

Consumer Complaint: I applied for and was accepted into the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program in XX/XX/2006. I complied with the instructions given to me. I have been in public service since XX/XX/2006. I’ve been informed that my payments have not counted toward the PSLF program based on several factors, one of which is that I was not in a qualifying repayment program. I was never informed of which repayment program I needed to be in or that my payments were not counting toward the PSLF program. I have had my employment certified the entire time and made all payments as required by my servicer in full. I feel this denial is completely ridiculous and fraudulent. I have complied with all known requirements and the balance of my loans should be forgiven as represented to me. The claim that I did not make my entire payment at any time is incorrect. I have always paid the full amount due. I have more documentation if needed. I have tried to rectify this with the loan servicer, XXXX XXXX, on numerous occasions.
