Quote
I had two citi-student loans and at some point in time within the last 5 years they went to Navient (Sallie Mae)

I recently called to ask if I could get a lower pay-off amount as the original loans were 32K and now they are up to about 64K because of deferment and interest. They said no and I believe these may have been private loans.

My conditions have changed. I was born into Islam, but never knew much about my religion. Since 2012 I have been learning more about my faith and it is strictly forbidden in my faith to have dealings with interest.

I am offering to pay off the original amount I owe however due to religious reasons would like them to recognize that my awareness and conditions have changed from the time of originally accepting the loan with Citi-Student Loan Corp and not even with them at Sallie Mae.

Can I get the interest wiped out and close this account and case with just paying the original amount borrowed?

I am in the Seattle, WA area are there attorneys that you can direct me to that can help?

People are this dumb?

While not making any excuses for this, "Islamic banking" is a very real thing in Arabic culture. It's a banking system based around honor and compassion that is a fundamental part of them doing business. One of its aspects is loans at a 0% interest rate, for example.

Obviously not saying that being a Muslim is a valid excuse to avoid interest, but she shouldn't just be called an idiot either. I could see that this might be a misunderstanding or something.

Hey Flee. I borrowed a fuck load of money from you and I also the owe you the interest, but I'm not going to pay the interest because I'm a fucking Armenian and if you tell me otherwise than that's too bad because I'm Armenian and I get special treatment.

Spoiler
Do you see the point? She may not be completely stupid, but she's fucking arrogant for having this assumption to begin with, and if she doesn't see the error in her ways, THEN she's a an idiot. I hope that made sense.

The thing is, these days. Intelligence is rather subjective. People that know me in real life say I'm smart, but when I'm on this website in particular I have everyone call me an idiot.

But it's always over trivial shit. I'm not the smartest man in the world, but I'm also not dumb as dirt.

I have made some stupid decisions in my life, but that doesn't make me an idiot if I've learned from them and not to do them again.

The person is an idiot.

"over time I learned more about my faith" is already a red flag that they fucking messed up and want some sort of excuse to pay less.

Pretty sure they can get into loans with interest, but Muslims aren't supposed to charge interest on what they loan out. Kind of like how it's not okay to murder someone, but saying you're Christian/Muslim/Jewish/etc. isn't an excuse to not get murdered...if that makes any sense.

It feels like that to me. It feels like someone is trying to be a smartass with that cultural difference as an excuse. Where have they been hiding, under a rock? If they didn't want to live in a different culture then they can always move where their own culture is prevalent.

Part of moving into some place is to also accept the cultural differences, and not impose your own-- especially on private companies that have people who hold their own culture and beliefs. It would be a mistake to actually favor them in this situation, since student loans are a huge issue on their own.

Yet zero interest rate? Pfft. Yeah, and my culture involves backstabbing Machiavellisms (just look at the great history of the Athenian republic) does that mean it's OK for me to act like that?

Yes, it's a silly excuse, but she does come from a culture where loans with interest are pretty much taboo. It's not the same as calling on some arbitrary reason to be treated as a special snowflake.
