      Well, I got an alert on my credit report last week and I logged on to check it and my student loan was taken off my credit report. No letter of why. So, when I started looking into even more, they said they transferred my student loans to another company to be managed, and this company is contracted with the gov't. Why would they zero out all my loans and closed them on my credit report just to transfer them to another company? I've had my loans transferred before and they never closed them and then took them off all three of the credit bureaus. The new company they transferred them to don't know nothing...all of this is just weird.

    If you take what Navient says at face value your a fool. Of course they pushed forbearance over small payments. They stand to make even more on the back of those already defaulting. It is incredibly unbelievable that they deny this when predatory lenders do whatever they need to do to increase the bottom line. It's such a shame that it costs your life to go to college in this country. Paying 30 years for a bachelor degree is crazy!

      You are not a fool. Naive, yes but not a fool. You are dealing with 18 yr olds charting their way through life, not savvy 30 something yr olds who have lived a few years and know all about loans and interest. If you ask the average student, he or she would say ' I understand I gotta pay back my loan...cool because I plan on getting a well paying job with this debt. What happens when the economy collapses and those jobs aren't available? What happens when a pandemic hits and closes your business? What happens when you are willing to work but someone is willing to work for less money so your job gets shipped overseas? Life happens but what is coming to light is this: predatory lenders made the journey of college financing hazardous for a generation.

    Navient isn't the only one doing this, they don't tell you that a deferment capitalizes the interest and your principal goes up and up. They call that helping you when you can't make your payment. I know because this happened to a friend's daughter when she got sick and couldn't work for 2 years. Her principal went from under 20 grand to over 35, but yeah they're helping. College and college loans have gotten to be a huge scam and you can't file bankruptcy on the loans anymore. Also add that to the fact that a 4 year degree in biology only gets you a $25,000 a year starting salary, if you are lucky enough to find a job.

      The biggest punch in the gut is this...you think you are bettering yourself by going to college - increasing job opportunities and securing a better future. After years of getting through college and taking out loans, you graduate and have heavy debt. The debt gets heavier when you get sick or lose wages. You cannot simply write off your debt in bankruptcy no matter how devastating your circumstances. You really begin to feel like a fool once you realize you went to college and amassed debt while your friends, siblings, cousins, neighbors skipped college, got jobs paying more than you and live better than you.

It was two different 2-year for-profit colleges and it didn't take me long until I found out how ludicrous the "student loan racket" is, our government profiting on its own citizens who looking for a second chance to go back to school and seek out a better life. I'm going to be 62 soon and it's obvious I will never be able to repay the $40,000+ amount of money I still owe. Thank goodness the federal student loan is "on pause" because of covid, but that is supposed to end soon. I just sent my 2021 taxes to Navient today hoping can still make the income-driven repayment plan because I can hardly afford to give them any more than I do now which is around $63 a month. Really hope, because I was "lured" into for-profit colleges as they were so easy to be accepted into, that these crazy-high student loans can someday be forgiven. If not forgiven, I will die still owing and the student loans will just have to die with me.

      I don’t want to hear the eventual idiot say “don’t compare that, this is about our education!”…
      If anyone deserves to have their debts wiped it is the ones who suffered and never asked for it.
      Bums like you need to repay for classes that YOU SIGNED UP for… you contractually signed and agreed to pay for a service. I chose to find a career job instead of college. I do not want my hard earned money and taxes being given to you or anyone who just refuses to repay.
      Unless there was a reason such as illness, death in the family, extreme financial hardship… I’m fine with that. Otherwise, be a grown ass adult and pay up. 👏

    All student debt from all lenders and servicers should be discharged, and all college should be tuition-free so people don't have to borrow money in the future.
    And IDGAF what conservatives think about it. We need to put an end to all of this madness and make college tuition-free.
    To pay for it, tax the rich until their eyes bleed.
    The USA needs dramatic, fundamental changes in our economy because what we've been doing so far only works well for corporations like Navient and the wealthy few who buy our politicians.
    Before you say this is a pipe dream, this is how it already works in many other rich countries that are much smarter and more decent than the USA is.

      You do realize that practically nowhere on the planet is college free for the masses!! If you believe that is the way it works…SMH… In some more developed countries, you have to achieve a certain score on standardized tests to receive a public education past the 10th grade! Those who promote free education for all because so and so country does it leave out the highly exclusionary criteria for a government /tax payer funded higher education. People are so economically ignorant of the fact that if the government took all monies from every billionaire, it would not be enough to fund Medi-care for 3 years! The power of certain groups on the far-right and far- left depends upon peoples’ ignorance…In addition, many of the developed countries that provided a taxpayer/government funded higher education for those who meet their criteria have populations of approximately 10 million people +/- with the masses paying an exceptionally high portion of their income in taxes.

      @@lynnf.6649 Sweden does it for everyone who can meet the academic standards. The other Nordic nations do as well.
      Also, you may well be right about taxing the rich not generating enough revenue, but it's a good start! I would personally be willing to pay more taxes if it meant no student debt. But the rich must pay more first. We are the richest nation in the history of the world, so we can make things like this happen if we want to. We must tip the scales in favor of a broader middle class instead of haves and have-nots.
      I'm strongly in favor of importing many of the policies from the Scandinavian countries. They have the highest quality of life on earth. I am not saying they're perfect, and I don't care for the weather, but life is so much better there economically for ordinary people than in the USA. Here in the USA, we have a culture that says, "I don't give a shit about the welfare of other people, and you can't make me!" The pandemic has shown this.
      Even if it's not totally tuition-free in some other developed countries, it's still a lot less expensive than it is here. Canada is an example of this.
      These are not extreme ideas at all. Almost no one in the USA is looking to emulate Venezuela or Cuba. This is just asking the USA to act more like its allies.
      As far as the difference in population, it evens out because the tax base from which the money is drawn is also smaller.
      I have years of experience in the health insurance and public health industries, and I have earned a master's degree in health administration. I am here to tell you that the USA has the dumbest healthcare system in the developed world. We pay our the nose and get inferior outcomes.
      The governments of some rich nations pay less per-capita to cover everyone than we pay just for the government to cover some people. And that's not including private insurance and self pay. We must make radical changes to many aspects of our healthcare system because it's extremely broken. And, of course, some people and industries are getting fabulously rich from this broken system while patients go bankrupt. It's absurd. Single-payer healthcare in Canada isn't even controversial. Even the conservatives there support it. Several years ago, the UK wanted to institute some mild competition between hospitals, and the conservative PM had to reassure the people that he wasn't moving toward an American-style system because they were understandably afraid of that happening. Conservatives abroad are often to the left of our Democratic Party.
      Another way to help pay for programs like this is to dramatically slash defense spending. We outspend the next 11 nations combined on defense. We could cut our defense spending in half and still outspend every other country on earth. Our defense spending is mostly designed to enrich large defense contractors, not to make things better for our people in the Armed Forces.

I am willing to go through this because what is going to happen is when I find out that I have already paid these loans once, I am demanding that they return every dime If have had to pay out over the years with interest! Also, my student loans have been transferred to aidVantage, according to my email I received on February 4, 2022. Also, about 2012 or so, I had requested a forbearance that never took place. So, shouldn't my loans have been cancelled for being told to go to forbearance when that never took place and they continued to take money from my tax returns every year from 2013-2017!

      Because college is a money grab. Unless ur going for a masters or more it’s pointless.
      I went to college and regret it because I don’t really use my degree from almost 20 years ago. I’m in my 40’s and have a decent 55-60k a year job with pretty good benifits oddly enough one of the benifits is 80% in state tuition covered for my kids when they go to college. But by then 8 and 10 years away respectively college will be astronomical high and who knows if that perk will still be a thing because of it.
      Some degrees especially masters or more do pay off with jobs typically starting at 70,000 or more in certain fields . But even still to expect an 600-1000 payment a month for 30 plus years is ridiculous.
      I can tell u from experience that when expecting a middle class family making around 120 a year to pay out 1200-1600 a month just for 2 student loan payments is highway robbery! Once u factor in mortgage, utilities, food, child care ohhhh the child care, car payments , gas ect…..it’s ridiculous. So people who go to college end up in the hole every month or barely scraping by with decent jobs for 30 years . It’s crazy.
      Luckily my wife works in the public sector so her loans got forgiveness after 10 years. Still that was 10 years of 500-900 a month just for hers because believe me when u even get small raises they gotta get theirs .
      It’s just not a good system. It’s not right for someone to get educated and get a good 50-75 a year job and struggle to make ends meet. The fact that these student loans payments tend to average 25-35% of bring home after taxes for most people is ridiculous.
      It should be between 5-10% max
      Colleges shouldn’t be so expensive. Someone should be able to go to school for 4 years and say pay 200-300 a month for 10 years after at most and be done.
      A 4 year degree shouldn’t be 100k in debt . It should be 30-40k at most . Colleges are greedy .
