What to do

Common mistakes: Common mistakes: paying a company that contacted you without checking. Log in to StudentAid.gov to see your federal loans and your servicer's name and contact information. Servicers can change, so check again if you suddenly stop getting statements. Private loans won't appear there; check your credit report at AnnualCreditReport.com or old paperwork. Keep your contact info updated with your servicer so you don't miss notices. Set up autopay through the official servicer once you've confirmed who it is. Some servicers offer a small interest rate discount for autopay.

Speed Man tip: Private loans aren't listed there.
