I am in BK waiting for Discharge, but wanted to get my payoff balance (naturally, I can't log onto the site right now)so that I can kill off this damn loan, even if it is before the discharge, since its only a few hundred bucks. (DW's is in adversarial mode right now, but is also in forbearance)

We were discussing what kind of terms I could get after the discharge, and if given the circumstances they could kill the lates since it was recent, and even though it was 121 days, it was my only late over the 13 year life of the loan.
(they could, and supplied me with a letter stating that the late will be dropped if it is PIF with no more lates after it becomes due again.)


We were joking about the fact that they make more money servicing on school loans than I make teaching college courses...rep said I should work there instead.

Guess what...there was an employment app and job listing in today's mail! Looks like they are hiring 150 new slots (not too many service reps, mostly back-office math types)...and most of the gigs start at about $75K a year...damn good money in this corner of PA.
