Consumer Narrative
Twice this year Navient has put my student loan repayments into deferment, without my permission. I have been repaying my original student loans and want to continue repaying them, in fact, I was set up for monthly auto-pay payments. I contacted Navient around XXXX or XX/XX/2022 after the first time they put my loans into deferment and stated in writing thatI did not want my loans in deferment. After this contact, they restarted my auto-payments. However, it appears that once again in XX/XX/2022 they put my loans in deferment again, without my request or permission. I do not want my loans in deferment - I did not request for this to happen, nor did I approve the changes to my account. Today, XX/XX/2022, I received an email from Navient telling me that I have accrued an additional amount of unpaid interest on my student loans ... .because Navient has not been deducting the auto-payment on my loans since XX/XX/2022 - even though I did not ask for or authorize this change. I logged into my Navient account today, after receiving the correspondence about the accrued interest on my account, only to find that I am unable to reinstate or change the payments on my account ... .because it is in deferment. Navient has 'disabled ' these features on my account. I feel like this is absolutely criminal and a very crooked way to make more interest off of a loan. I have once again contacted Navient stating that I do not want my loan on deferment and I want to continue with the auto-pay that I had set up ( which also provided a discounted rate for auto-payment, which they XXXX ). I can not believe that the changes Navient has made are legal and are a violation of my consumer financial rights.
