I have various student loans. They're a fun part of my life [sarcasm]. A nice little chunk of my paycheck is used to pay off the various financial institutions that bankrolled my college career.
I'm used to sending them checks--usually electronic, but nevertheless, the cash flow goes toward them. Until today.
I recieved a check from one of the loan services with a memo of 8/1/2008 for the amount of my usual payment. I do a bit of research; my 8/1/08 payment was taken from my account, but not one on 9/1/08. I check online and my account is paid in full. The check was a refund for overpayment.
Why am I confused? I've only paid a quarter of the loan. I've sent them an e-mail (since the offices are already closed) and figure this out.
I'm not complaining, but just confused.
