Consumer Narrative
I graduated in XXXX. At the time I had no business in college, I graduated XXXX XXXX with a XXXX GPA and XXXX with a XXXX GPA. I had 0 concept of finances and did not fully understand what I was agreeing to. I only wanted to wrestle. As an adult I am better with money and recognize the consequences of my actions from over 11 years ago. Unfortunately Navient is very hard to work with. You student loans are in 3 different departments, Government, Governement back, and Private student loans. Each department has it own programs and don't talk to each other, so when you have 20 student loans it is easy for Navient people to make mistakes. They signed me up for 18 % interest rate. I have basically been on a rate reduction plan for the private loans for the last 10 years and have never paid the government loans. Every six months they want to call and discuss my income situation over again. I also get harrassed by employees for making life decisions like buying a car or house. They tell me I should be calling them before taking out new debt. It is very draining considering the yoyo ride my income has gone on over the last 10 years. It should not be legal for them to hold an 18 % debt over my head and not consider locking in a rate longer than 6 months. They are the only negative reporting information on my credit. So I can not refinance the loans, they keep increasing the monthly payment so paying back federal also becomes impossible. Not sure what this email will do but I though someone should know. The purpose of Student loans and Navient was to improve my life. I now feel like a slave to the debt and I keep getting harassed by the company every 6 months because they want me to pay 18 % interest. Navient needs to do a better job of servicing their long term customers and helping them enrich their lives through a pay plan that is profitable but affordable for consumers. Student loans should not be hurting me this badly after 11 YEARS!
