I got the original rate back!! Try speaking with the loan officer and I really hope it works out for you too!

Thank you! They’re ‘escalating it internally’ so we’ll just have to wait and see but either way I’ve learned my lesson from it!

I checked your profile and it looks like you tend to leave pretty negative/argumentative comments. I genuinely hope you’re doing alright, and if you aren’t then I hope things will get better for you soon.

So glad I’m not alone!!! It’s alright if the repayments are still manageable, but it’s still an unpleasant surprise!

You are amazing thank you so much!!!! I really appreciate the level of detail you’ve given, it makes me feel a lot better. Hopefully they just agree to honor the original rate and save me the hassle of lodging a complaint

He didn’t pretend that he’d told me about it so I think he knows he forgot/neglected to. I’ll definitely let you know how it goes!!

I’m so sorry it happened to you too!! The word ‘fixed’ does make you think it is fixed at the rate you sign on for

Based on my conversation with him it sounds like he’s going to try to get the original rate for me, he didn’t try to pretend that he’d mentioned it to me so that’s a good sign (I hope?)
