tortfeasor1 Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 I have a federal student loan through the U.S. Dept. of Ed.I had a couple of late payments last year that I would like removed, but I am hesitant to dispute them, since the on-time payments since then have brought up my score alot, and I don't want to risk losing the entire TL. Anyone know anyone I can call for a goodwill adjustment? Any sugestions as to what to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tortfeasor1 Posted August 25, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2003 Does the Federal Government care if I complain at planet feedback asking for help?That might work for a private company, but the federal government? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb9tbq Posted August 25, 2003 Report Share Posted August 25, 2003 Interesting - well put it this way, if you can find a contact name & address at www.planetfeedback.com then I would think the answer to be yes.If you can't, then you just have to locate an address through other means, like off of their web site, or customer service may provide you with an address to send good will letter that way, may even try faxing as well.

Ravenous Wolf Posted January 4, 2004 Report Share Posted January 4, 2004 I don't think Uncle Sugar gives a rat's [EXPLETIVE DELETED] about a goodwill letter.Uncle Sugar doesn't do stuff like that.If you have ever had to deal with government officials (I have worked for the state and my current job is with a defense contractor), the government doesn't care about being lenient UNLESS it is allowed by law.Whatever is not allowed by law is ILLEGAL.Like heroin is illegal. But it is legal for Uncle Sugar to give out money to institutions so they can give away free syringes so that druggees are using clean needles when they shoot up.One part is illegal but being lenient is legal. But only allowed by law.Your real problem is with the CRAs and that is the best route to take in getting those lates removed.As for losing the tradeline, that is the double edged sword that you must face. It really depends how much losing a good tradeline is worth to you. It always a risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michigangirl530 Posted January 4, 2004 Report Share Posted January 4, 2004 also look up us title codes students loans are reported diff.. from the date they recieve the loan. collections that isand also where u got the loan from so if it was bought by another lender then they will report the day they got it . i have tried and asked everyone about this and no one have came up with a diff answer. i would leave it alone.
