Is EDvantage legit?

How to check EDvantage yourself

  1. Use contact details you found yourself. Go to the company's own website or the number on your card or statement - never a number or link from a text, email or caller.
  2. Check its licence. Lenders, servicers and money transmitters are usually licensed by the states - search NMLS Consumer Access and your state's financial regulator.
  3. Read the latest complaints. Look for the same problem again and again in the complaint log, and at how they were answered.
  4. Read people's own experiences. See what others say about EDvantage, and add yours.
  5. Get everything in writing before you pay, sign or share anything.

Your rights with student loan servicers

Federal student loan borrowers can switch to an income-driven repayment plan, ask for deferment or forbearance, and apply for forgiveness programs such as Public Service Loan Forgiveness through studentaid.gov. The Federal Student Aid ombudsman helps with disputes your servicer will not fix. Private loans follow the contract and state law instead.

Scam warning: Applying for federal repayment plans and forgiveness is free. Anyone who charges a fee, asks for your FSA ID or promises instant forgiveness is not to be trusted.
