Thank you, it reminded me to pay my monthly fee for it, even if I never finished it. Thanks mandatory internship times and no help to get it besides some job listings on my college's site, and no guarantees for disabled student!

I stg did they buy all the debt cheap because everyone else was worried it was going to be canceled or something?

With the guarantee to never time out, I didn't know student loans got traded like Pokémon cards akin to medical debt.

I wonder if you could get these buyers like you can get most medical buyers, with them not having the appropriate records to "prove" you owe it. 🤔I'm sure that loophole is probably closed for student debt though.

I got moved to Nelnet as well and I hate 'em. At least my last provider had a decent website and didn't constantly get confused about how much I owe.

Somehow they're an upgrade over the pure dumpster fire that was my old servicer (Fedloan, which I found out was owned by the fucking state government of Pennsylvania. Can't believe the states are allowed in the loansharking game). I still want to go to Lincoln and show them a nice time, but at least those keystone fuckers are out of the game for good.

Bonus points if its a garnishment and doesn't come out automatically.
