Granted when I started counting payments in 2007 I was being serviced by a provider who was a part of the program. <br /><br />At no point was I given a choice as to whether my loan would be sold (all freely allowed by the Dept. of Education and federal government). In fact, over the decade between 2007 and 2018 my loan was "serviced" by at least 4 different companies. <br /><br />I had previously tried loan forgiveness twice before. Each time I appealed right up to the ombudsman of the US Dept. of Education and was repeatedly denied. I've taught in Title 1 schools for over 25 years and yet still don't qualify. <br /><br />Thank you for your "insignificant blog". As another math teacher out here I certainly appreciate it. <br />asymptote12https://www.blogger.com/profile/04552324687060580556noreply@blogger.com
