As a former college student, I have a few private loans with Navient ( formally known as XXXX XXXX ). I have experienced nothing but frustration when it comes to attempting to negotiate payment plans. Because the loans are private, I have few to none available options. I was recently linked with Navient 's Customer Advocate Department after a previous complaint with CFPB in XXXX, and I have still gotten nowhere. I have talked to numerous representatives that have not " advocated '' for me in any shape or form. Most recently, I have been waiting since XXXX to find out if I was eligible for a Loan Modification Program, and was recently informed by a loan officer while trying to purchase a home, that my loans currently reflect that I am to pay $ 600/a month, which I was informed is because I have a late payment. I was continuously told by Navient representatives that if the Customer Advocate Department is working on my loans, then they will not be late. Obviously not true. This process has been nothing but frustrating and as a hardworking woman, I have struggled with being able to make payments that are expected. I have consistently made payments, when I was able to pay what was expected, every month, on time, even paying a lump sump payment towards XXXX loan. Navient has made me question being a XXXX, especially considering that my income is not sufficient to pay what is expected. Speaking to Navient representatives to like speaking to someone who speaks a foreign language and has no clue of what I am talking about. This has by far been the most frustrating process, and I have yet to get anywhere after writing complaints, speaking with multiple representatives, and even supervisors. What 's most frustrating, is that the reason I pursued a degree was to be able to provide a better life for myself, and at this point I am XXXX guessing my decision. I would be so appreciative if I could be granted some assistance with this matter.
