Complaint What Happened |
On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted complaint number XXXX with current student loan servicer Aidvantage.
The core issues are that : In XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request through studentaid.gov to enroll in the income driven repayment plan ( SAVE ). These were received by US Dept of Education and by Aidvantage ( on XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX XXXX respectively ).
I was placed on XXXX XXXX when I raised my previous complain because interest would continue to accrue ( although not capitalize ).
I requested a resolution to my situation- confirm my placement on SAVE plan, confirm payment, take me off administrative forbearance, and waive interest during administrative forbearance.
Case was closed on XX/XX/XXXX with company response of : " A noninterest capitalizing administrative forbearance was processed on XX/XX/XXXX, while your Income Driven Repayment ( IDR ) application was reviewed. In an administrative forbearance, interest does accrue but will not capitalize on your balance. In general, when an account is in a repayment status interest will accrue and will not be waived per your promissory notes... Your IDR application was processed on XX/XX/XXXX. '' Company took MUCH longer to process the application and accrued several thousand dollars of interest during administrative forbearance opportunistically and in DIRECT VIOLATION OF FSA and DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION DIRECTIVES.
Attached is a memorandum signed by Secretary of Education XXXX XXXX. Aidvantage 's response is a direct violation of the FSA recommendation and Department of Education Authority to " Remediate Potential Harm to Borrowers Caused by Repayment Servicing Errors ''.
On page 5 of the memo, it states under the section Lost Interest Subsidy " If borrowers on the SAVE plan can not make a payment because servicer... placed them in administrative forbearance these borrowers will lose out on any potential interest subsidies for that month. The remediation for this is to ensure these borrowers ' balances do not increase due to interest while their monthly payments are being recalculated '' On Page 5/6, it states " Pending your approval, FSA intends to instruct servicers to :... Ensure affected borrowers effectively do not accrue any interest while their accounts are being corrected '' On Page 10, it concludes " FSA recommends that the Department use the Secretary 's compromise authority to adjust any interest accrued for affected borrowers while their accounts are being remediated. The memo also requests approval to grant credit towards IDR and PSLF for borrowers were taken out of repayment status and in an administrative forbearance to resolve these servicing errors. '' The memorandum was approved and signed by XXXX XXXX.
Aidvantage 's response demonstrates a blatant breach of the Department of Education / FSA memo and opens up significant risk of litigation.
