Why
is Exceptional Customer Service important to you?
The
majority of lenders, big and small, in the student loan
industry outsource the customer service portion of a student
loan. In other words, they hire servicers,
like OSLA, to ensure that your loan is and the funds are delivered to you within the guidelines
of your chosen school.
Additionally,
the servicer is responsible for all of your customer service inquiries
while you are in school. Most loans are sold to a secondary
market before you graduate and begin repayment on the loan.
The new owner may choose to use a different servicer right
about the time you begin repayment, which could leave you
frustrated and confused.
What makes OSLA different?
All
OSLA
Student Lending Network loans are serviced by and sold,
in the secondary market, to OSLA. By choosing a member of the OSLA
Student Lending Network for your loan, you are ensuring
that you will receive Exceptional Customer Service from
OSLA for the life of your loan.
Additionally,
most servicers, have adopted automated voice recognition
systems to direct and defer your customer service calls;
OSLA has not. Every call you make into our Customer Service
Team is directly received and assisted by a full-time OSLA
Service Expert ensuring that every call you make to OSLA
receives personal attention.
The
personal attention our OSLA Service Experts provide will
be of value to you over the life of your loan. Should you have a financial hardship
and need to defer payments or a windfall and want to pay off your balance, our Service Experts will be available
to guide you through the process.
