Consumer Narrative
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION ( XXXX ) U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION ( XXXX ) Hello, I have two federal students with Great Lakes. The account numbers are listed above. I had submitted a 6-month deferment request for XXXX XXXX- XX/XX/XXXX to temporarily postpone payments due to financial difficulties. For some reason, during this time, my credit reports reflect late payments instead of the deferment status. I have tried to correct this via credit bureau dispute process but have been unsuccessful and need your help. I work hard and have even made payments during the pandemic while payments were on hold to help pay down balance. The credit bureaus have not been helpful. Great Lakes has not updated my account and I need further guidance as this is becoming a hinderance for me. Thank you.
