Consumer Narrative
Nelnet is my federal student loan servicer. On XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, I returned to school full time graduate student status. The school sent proof of my full time status for deferment. Nelnet discriminates against me and refuses to place my loans on deferment until I finish school. I spent many hours on the phone with Nelnet and uploaded completed and signed deferment form from my school. After 5 months of asking and begging for them to help, my loans continue to be in repayment and not deferment. I applied for deferment and uploaded proof of student full time status with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on the Nelnet website in my account. This is what Nelnet requested to process my application. Here are the dates when I submitted completed deferment applications and uploaded the required information : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX
