That was in place before George W Bush. Second, his bankruptcy rules only apply to business, not to individuals. Do some research for once. Third, Obama had been in office for over a year when you wrote that, so why didn't you ask him why he didn't change the new rules?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2721291764710318222.post-70734248190384541332010-09-20T15:18:22.295-07:002010-09-20T15:18:22.295-07:00There are a lot of us out there that sallie mae ha...There are a lot of us out there that sallie mae have screwed.

I've been able to keep up with my payments of apprx. $600/month ONLY because I moved back in with my parents after graduating with an 18mo. degree. <BR/><BR/>I never found a job in my field, as the school I had gone to over-exaggerated on the availability of jobs in legal administration. I work one full-time and one part-time job, and the full-time paycheck is sucked up by SM every month. There is no way in hell i'd be able to pay for my own room and board without finding a LAA job, and even then money would be tight. <BR/><BR/>So, I joined the Navy, scored well on my asvab, and was given the option of having the federal portion of my loan paid off by them in exchange for a 6 year service agreement. Since the federal bit is the largest part ($19k out of $27k), I agreed and started filing my LRP forms. <BR/><BR/>SM, my lender, is under obligation to release my loan information on my request, especially under these circumstances. You'd think they would be more compliant since they are getting a nice chunk of change handed to them at once, but they keep sending my LRP forms back saying they cannot release my loan information to me or anybody else if they didn't want to. I guess they really don't want to lose out on the interest.<BR/><BR/>I've got about two weeks to file these papers, or I lose my LRP bonus. My next step will be talking to JAG about getting a warrant or subpoena or SOMETHING to get them to release my info. <BR/><BR/>Its probably not something you'd consider after reading your SM blog, but I think they'll be able to help me. I'll comment again later to let you know if they end up complying or if I end up losing my bonus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2721291764710318222.post-33165691006190309892008-06-04T12:38:00.000-07:002008-06-04T12:38:00.000-07:00Good Morning,Wow, theres someone else out there wh...Good Morning,<BR/><BR/>Wow, theres someone else out there who feels like I do. I have almost the exact same problem, only mine is about 6k less then yours. <BR/><BR/>About two weeks before Christmas last year I was called by SM, saying that I would have to start paying since I was no longer in school. I had not gotten a job in my field, as it was being flooded, so I was working at a small factory for $9. I told them on the phone that I would pay $500 in two weeks (two days before Christmas), on the internet through my check card. He said okay and I thought I was fine. But one day after I payed the $500 they took out another $500. When I called to ask what the F they were doing they said that I told them they could take it...I had no money for Christmas, or gas to go visit either my or my BFs parents. Let alone enough to pay the next months bills.<BR/><BR/>I have payed for almost a year striaight, on time, every time, and now I'm in a bit of a situation. I lost my other job (which I had gotten over $10 for) and now am down to $7. I couldnt make last months payment so I called. They said that I would have to, that I had no choice, and I said I had no money. Then they FINALLY said that I could defer it. So I said I'd do that, for $50 of course. Well, my check card isnt working so I said that I'd need to send the money in. They said okay. Then a week later my check was smaller then I thought it would be so I called again and they said that it was unacceptable. I'm sorry, but I had to pay rent, and eat. <BR/><BR/>So now I am hoping I can do something, scrape some money from somewhere so that my credit report doesnt go in the crapper. Worrying about this makes me depressed. And the CONSTANT calls (upwards of 7 a day) really dont help. <BR/><BR/>There are a lot of us out there, and somehow we can find some menial comfort in eachother. Heh.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
