As an official act:
Oops the records on student loans got misplaced, all paper backups are somehow gone too. Welp, I guess they don't have loans anymore.
Do you not know how deeply entrenched Biden is in student loans? He is directly the reason they cannot be expunged in bankruptcy.
One of the few things his administration did during his Presidency was to dig up old loans (like 20 YEARS old) that have already been written off by the schools as bad debt, and SENT THEM BACK TO COLLECTIONS, which are masquerading as the Dept of Education. He made a point to spend time finding vulnerable, overeducated, underpaid young people and threw them under the bus for debt that already went through 7 years of hitting credit reports. And, again, which the schools themselves have already written off.
So yeah, he's not that guy.
Can you back this up with proof?
The pandemic "HEROES" act (extreme fucking irony) in 2022 brought all defaulted student loans to "current." And because they're Federal loans, the government can still attempt to collect. And they tack on 20+ years' interest. So for a 3k Perkins loan from 2001, they want an additional $2,750 in interest. And if you MADE PAYMENTS in the past, quelle surprise, they have no record of that.
And instead of being able to talk to the actual Dept of Education, they've placed collection agencies like ECSI as their front of house. ECSI will say, only the school can dismiss these charges. So you contact your school, the school expresses incredulity, reaches out to ECSI to tell them the debt has been written off, and then ECSI (aka DoEd) says, nuh-uh.
It's a system designed to resolve nothing while putting people over a cheese grater from loans they didn't even need from 2 decades ago.
Nothing in that seems to illustrate by example anything the other person is claiming by their anecdotal experience with the matter.
Thank you!
That’s not proof. That’s just further explaining what you said. I’d like to see actual evidence of what you’re suggesting.
Well fucking look it up yourself. If you haven't clued in, I'm describing my own experience. You think I'm posting the ECSI letter and correspondence from my undergrad in the early 2000s here for you?
Remember bro your not the fuck face whisperer, you don't have to explain things.
That wouldn't be a particularly good proof even if you did. That would just demonstrate something happened once. A sample size of one is, in most cases, not really all that useful. I would say all, but I'm not completely sure there are no exceptions.
Then don’t say things you can’t or won’t back up with anything outside of anecdotal experience.
