    299.56% for me.

    And the kicker is that in the 10 years that I have paid, my principal balance has not decreased at all.

    Oh, and the real treat? Since the Federal injunction, I can’t recertify my repayment information, which means I lost all progress towards loan forgiveness.

    I am fucking livid.

      They will almost certainly change the rules once the injunction finalizes. Call your representative and tell them what’s going on.

      When the game is that tilted against you, when do you just stop playing? You’re literally getting nowhere playing by the rules.

          As I understand things from my own reading, Student Loans typically can’t be discharged with bankruptcy, and they start garnishing your wages eventually if you don’t pay voluntarily.

          Short of keeping all your money in cash and living off the grid in a hovel not worth the trouble for the bank to foreclose on, I think I’m pretty much fucked.
