My Student Loans Are Paid Off, But I Didn't Pay It????

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Mr. Claus paid your loan bro. As long as you get a statement shows zero balance, or just keep a print out of that email, you shouldn't worry about it until you receive a statement that asks for payment
 
john's the only guy in the world I can think of that would pay off my loan and ask for nothing

thanks john, I owe you
 
My vote is clerical error, which will surface when they reconcile their records. If they bought in November, then you can expect a lot of stuff to still be going on behind the scenes while they catch up. It's an easy catch. Company A sells $500k in loans to Company B but Company B only sees $495k in loans on their books. Then they do a little investigating and voila, instant new year's gift :)
 
And if it was actually paid off by a private party, they should be able to show the date/time and origination of who/what paid that money.
 
if it's a clerical error, my question is, when they do figure it out months later, does that mean i'm months late on the payment????
 
I remember one time the water meter was screwed up and our water bill was like $3-$5 a month for like half a year.

eventually they fixed it and the payments just went back up to normal with no consequences or anything

I wouldn't think so. I would keep records of the time you tried to contact them and keep whatever correspondence they send. While a clerical error doesn't free you from the financial liability, it shouldn't have any effect on your payment history.
