I was first contacted by Windham Professionals to collect a student loan debt. I was told that my wages would be garnished if I didn't pay $1700 a month. I explained that that was not possible and they'd have to lower the payments. After weeks of threats of garnishment we finally agreed on $530 a month. After 6 consecutive payments my loans would come out of financial aid suspension according to them. After 9 consecutive payments my loans were to be out of defult all together.
I agreed to make a first payment using my credit card and future payments through automatic bank transfers from my check card. Windham screwed it up. They attempted to take payments from my credit card beyond the date agreed.
When we spoke concerning what they perceived to be a missed payment, I cleared up the confusion with the payment method. I provided them once again with the right account information. I was told by an individual that claimed to be a manager that they would wave the missed payment and keep my account current. My payment due date was adjusted. My payments are $265 every two weeks.
Now that I'm at the 6 consecutive payment mark, Windham professionals is telling me that the missed September payment excludes me from the ealier agreement of releasing the financial aid suspension. Apparently the individual I spoke with was not a manager as he stated. The supposed manager that I spoke to on 12/13 insisted that there is no way I'm going to get out of this and asked if I wanted to discontinue the program not that I'm within 3 months of completing it...
I feel that I've been scammed out of $3000... Help!
