    Rep Massie (R-KY) introduced bill to bill "H.R.899 - To terminate the Department of Education"

    I'm already on debt strike, but if there's no ED, why on earth would anyone repay their ED loans?

    Debt Collection help

    I have a debt collector (LNVN Funding) trying to sue me for a debt that’s dated 2020. They served me papers thru the courts and I sent them a debt validation letter explaining to send me the original copy of where I signed for the acct and the acct number , statements of the acct being paid, charges, and interests. They sent me the answers to the validation letter but sent it late. They only sent me copies of like 4 statements and no acct number, well they did but it’s like XXXXXXXXXX6587. Also, they sent copies where the debt had been sold to two other collectors before them. I need some advice on this because I have no attorney so all the research is on my own. Can anyone tell me what I need to do now?

    Student loans forgiven through borrowers defense act!

    I just wanted to update you all that may have gone to private institutions (and public ones). My student loans were forgiven last month $65k!!! I applied for the borrowers defense act in February of 2021, and they have finally fallen off. Good thing was the loans were deferred with 0% interest for that entire time I had to wait on a decision, so I never had to pay which is great.

    I am a first generation college student so I really had no idea that private schools were a scam at 20 years old. I saw a post recently from someone in this community urging people to apply for this program. If any of you did there’s hope!! I hope we all get out from under this crushing system of capitalism soon, and join the other advanced nations that actually care about their citizens enough to not hold educational debt over their heads.

    Did they ever lower interest rates?

    Even people against write offs seem to be open to lowering the interest rate.

    Has it been done? Submitted to Congress? Anything?

    Anyone got an email from the Department of Education about enrolling in the Fresh Start program?

    Got an email to remind me to do so, and I am reluctant to do so. I keep on wanting to do the avoid it / ignore it strategy. Anyone know if it is worth enrolling in?
